    The update from Debian 12 took me four hours. It works. Plasma did not load so I had to clear old configuration files and configure it anew. Plasma on Wayland is actually usable now, and looks stable so far. And I’ve got new wallpapers I’ve so desired.

    And now it’s time to forget about OS updates for another two years.

    The truth is people who want small phones also want them for the price of a clamshell feature phone with no 4G support. I’ve heard these complaints many times from older acquaintances, they want their old Nokia that can also run Viber and do videocalls, and they are not paying iPhone SE price, so there’s practically no market for small but high-spec phones, outside of luxury brands where you are buying an ancient chip with a leather back cover.





  • The one use case is running STUN/TURN server for NAT hole punching, that requires two separate servers, or one server with two IP addresses. You will only need that to run masterserver for games that support hole punching, or to run VoIP telephony / teleconference server.

    Another use case is reliability, when your server is connected to several network providers, it will keep working if one of them has an outage, and will naturally have a different IP address for each network link. But your VPS does not have several network links, otherwise they would advertize that in bold red letters.
