A moment of silence to all those who've used "ping 1.1.1.1" as pause in their scripts, and for Cisco who's using 1.1.1.1 in their WLC captive portal

literally who does that?

It's the opposite. ping.exe is used in .bat files as 1 second delay tool (the IP address doesn't matter, all default delays are equal).
I think only windozed cripples would use it on*nix.

why would anyone do that when you can just do timeout 1 /nobreak

Stop using Windows XP, grandpa.

timeout is quite new, it's only been a standard feature since 7
and it's not even suitable for 1 second delays, since it works off the system clock, so specifying 1 seconds just means "the next second", which could be immediate

Kid, you're going to keep humiliating yourself just the same.

Wait, people use ping 1.1.1.1 as a sleep command? What???
Leo Mitchell
Why wouldn’t they ping localhost wtf? Some poo posted this somewhere and people just started copying it didn’t they?
Aaron Harris
uneducated windows sysadmins who don't realize 1.1.1.1 is a public address

I remember reading that some big outfits who managed to run out of space in 10.0.0.0/8 were using 11.0.0.0/8. Which got allocated to the DoD ages ago but was never publicly routed. Until one day it was and things blew up. Squatting on addresses like that always bites you one day.

What happened? What's wrong with pinging 1.1.1.1?
Samuel Parker
>spin up an alternate shell just to sleep
it was never a good idea, but the assumption was that it wouldn't be used, but it could always be used, and now it IS being used
