Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you could go back in time, what is the one thing you would change about computers or the internet?
1·9 days agoUDP is for video streams and other applications where a couple of dropped packets do not matter. Triple handshakes are kinda pointless for these types of data transfers.

Steam is a nice service but good god the glazing needs to stop. On Steam you do not own your games.
