My advice for this type of situation has been a 4G/5G modem-router+directional external antennae.
They are more sensitive so they can work with a weaker signal, and they don't move once installed somewhere, pointed at a cell tower. That means the connection can be made way more stable than when using cellular data on a phone.
Combine that with a prepaid data SIM, and you wont waste any money when you're not there using it.
You can get external large static directional antennae for them, tho.
The fact they don't need as strong a signal, don't move, and can be pointed directly at the nearest cell tower, means you can get far better throughout.
Always down to give some new IPs a go.
Gonna need that PC version asap
Ok, but it's still never going to become the go-to mobile client-carrier inter-carrier protocol, which is what SMS and RCS are.
I've abandoned SMS already, and won't be benefitting from apple adopting RCS, as I live in a country that has moved on from carrier-provided messaging.
But a lot of the world hasn't, and hence RCS is necessary.
I look forward to the day when everyone has a matrix address, the same as email, but I'm in no hurry to get there so long as the tools to manage what incoming communication actually gets through to you, do not exist.
For what?
We use different things for different things.
Matrix cannot do peer-to-peer message delivery, so it literally can't be the standard.
And I for one don't want matrix to become the new email, either. Can you imagine email spam, but in your DMs?
I'll happily let it replace iMessage, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp and Telegram, tho.
They're not really equivalent.
RCS replaces SMS, and thus for users will effectively function like a peer to peer message delivery system based on phone numbers.
Matrix is an account-based client-server system with federation capabilities, meaning it has more in common with email.
The benefit of SMS/RCS is that the ability to use them simply comes with your phone number/SIM.
While account-based chat system like Matrix have obvious benefits provided by the fact that they work through an account on a server, an open standard like SMS used to be, but with modern capabilities, is needed.
iMessage, being a closed-off obfuscated mess sitting between those two approaches, needs to go.
Hardly.
I'm saying satire that doesn't in some way tell you it's satire, can't be distinguished from the genuinely delusional.
And thereby the way satire tells you it is satire, needs to change. No part of the art requires that there be no way to truly tell, I would argue the opposite.
Hard disagree.
Clarity has never ruined a joke.
And this still doesn't account for the nutcases that say this stuff, actually believing it, and then get showered with validation because the rest of us assume it is sarcasm.
Edit: whether someone is being "too unreasonable to be serious" is unfortunately no longer a reliable way to tell what someone is actually trying to say.
Agreed, but again, let's not pretend r/fuckthes has a point in it being dumb and unnecessary.
Using it removes even the slightest room for misinterpretation. That is always a good thing.
Roku?
