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.

pelya@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What are the benefits of a server having multiple public IP addresses?English7·1 month agoBecause you won’t determine the type of NAT during hole punching. This requires the client sending two UDP packets to two different IP addresses, then comparing their source addresses on the server.
Normally yes, you can just assume that two clients you are trying to connect both have port restricted cone NAT, and run the hole punching algorithm, and if the connection fails after ten seconds, show message to the users ‘Error 418: your router is a teapot’.
pelya@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What are the benefits of a server having multiple public IP addresses?English41·1 month agoThe 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.

We cannot control corporations, who use sloppy AI for important decisions. A few court cases for unfair hiring practices will solve the problem rather quickly, it won’t be AI who will get fined, it will be CEO.

Edit: I’ve tried butter coffee twice, and it’s actually decent.

Thanks for trying it.
pelya@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Android 16 lets the Linux Terminal use your phone's entire storage2·3 months agoYou need to enter these commands in the Linux terminal app, not in the X server app. Once the two apps connect, it should be possible to launch another terminal inside the X server.
