Talk:Router (computing)

To me a router is, and has been for decades, a woodworking machine that shapes, hollows, bevels and wot-all, pieces of wood to turn them from what they were - um - pieces of wood - into things of beauty or utility or - hopefully - both. I have three of them and 50+ bits. If you're good enough, you can work magic with a router. I made a living for twenty odd years using them.

I have no doubt that UserTAR could turn this lovely noisy little machine into a suitable "See Also". AlanE 20:52, 10 December 2014 (EST)

No. Obviously he couldn't. Or won't. AlanE (talk) 23:51, 15 February 2016 (EST)

Perhaps we should move this content to a new name? If so, any thoughts on what it should be? "Network router?" "Router (electronic)?"--David B (talk) 11:10, 16 February 2016 (EST) By the way, AlanE, TAR did paste his See Also link block on this page. I removed most or all of them ( I don't remember exactly). See the edit log for details.--David B (talk) 11:12, 16 February 2016 (EST)

I implemented a solution. Conservative (talk) 11:34, 16 February 2016 (EST)

Thanks!--David B (talk) 11:39, 16 February 2016 (EST)

Thanks Cons! Give me a day or to and I will do something. Please be advised that some of what I write will be from personal experience and therefore open to Markmanlike criticism. AlanE (talk) 23:57, 16 February 2016 (EST)

Markman? Do you mean the Markman who, after being blocked for being a parodist, told me in private email that his goal all along had been to damage Conservapedia? And who wanted me to help him get his account restored? Which I of course refused? The one who said that he treats Conservapedia, and in fact all websites, as just "video games" in which the goal is simply to do as much damage as possible to as many people as possible? That Markman? SamHB (talk) 01:54, 17 February 2016 (EST)

SamHB, evangelical Christianity teaches the depravity of man and the need for being born again through Jesus Christ and being transformed by the power of the Spirit. Consider Markman as being one additional data point confirming the depravity of man and the existence of evil! If memory serve (and it may not), Markman was from the godless UK. Conservative (talk) 10:03, 17 February 2016 (EST)

Yes Sam. That Markman. Pinhas himself. (Appropriately named, don't you think?

And Cons - seeing as you have elbowed your belief in Britain's "godlessness" into the conversation - can I ask that if about 70% of a nation's population either believes in God or in some sort spiritual entity, (your figures mate, not mine) can that nation be considered "godless"?

And one other thing. My "source" in CP during Markman's campaign against me told me that his ISP was in Israel. AlanE (talk) 20:30, 17 February 2016 (EST)

Don't believe everything you read. I can make it look like I'm in just about any country in the world, and switch among them in a minute or less. That may have been where he/she actually was, or it may not have been.--David B (talk) 22:14, 17 February 2016 (EST)
