    Do you have to climb the wall to get back into the USA?

    My cousins were born and raised in Brazil.

    Alright! Wonderful to get a fellow Blazer fan from Brazil, such a great culture of music and sports. I'm a huge Flamengo fan and love the legend of Zico. Too bad he never won a World Cup. I've always wanted to go see a match at the Maracana. Hopefully one day I will be able to visit.

    Curious. How many states and countries have Blazers fans?

    The iP thing is super annoying. When I used to play Fanduel, it would try to tell me I was trying to play from a state it isn't legal to play and threatened to lock my account.

    I would ask your provider. Maybe there's a way to release your IP.

    Denny, you are a sad sad little white man........ If I'm not mistaken, Brazilians aren't Hispanic, they are Latin. The term Hispanic comes from
    I released my IP in the shower this morning! #BAM

    Mobile network tutorial.

    Your phone has at least three radios: bluetooth, WiFi, and cellular.

    To save battery, the cellular radio for data is turned off as much as possible. When you need cellular data, the radio is turned on, connection to the network established, and "IP" set up.

    Your WiFi data access is device (e.g. phone/tablet) to router via wireless radio, then to Internet over your cable modem (or whatever) wired connection. All the devices sharing your router have a local private IP, but share a single real IP as far as what the internet servers and routers see for any of your devices' data. This is because of Network Address Translation, or NAT.

    The cellular network is similar, but has a WAN component. Your device gets a local private IP on the carrier's WAN. The carrier transmits your wireless data from cell tower to cell tower until one of those is connected by a wired connection to the internet. From there your data goes across the wired network until they must leave the carrier network for any other network. The leaf router on the carrier network performs NAT so all devices behind that router appear to the internet as a single shared public IP.

    If the gateway/leaf router is in Indiana, it will look to the world like you and your phone are in Indiana.

    If you stop using cellular data for a while, the software will turn off the radio to save battery. When the radio turns on again, you get a new random private IP.

    Internet routing is non deterministic. Data to/from google.com may end up using a different leaf router than data to/from yahoo.com.

    If you're using phone over WiFi, an IP geolocator will probably be right. If not, it will probably get the country right and report a location within some radius of your actual location.

    How tall are you? I'm 6'5 so it's not too hard for me to dunk.

    As if we hadn't already seen the pictures of you dunking with the Bungee cord and harness.

    I always wished I could dunk on regulation rims as a kid. I'd lower the home rim a bit and pretend I was Kobe.
