  This looks like a really good explanation of how all the pieces work: What Are STUN, TURN, and ICE? | LiveSwitch Server Documentation share.google/PV7BKE7Q56vOE9lHl

  Based on what you wrote, it looks like you’ll need ICE hosts, but no STUN / TURN.

  Wow. I got a few links deep.

  I’ve just recently told my family that modern tech is pushing me to become a Luddite.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you are not in a tech field, what got you into self-hosting?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I still have a means of booting up Windows if there’s a need (usually for a firmware flash too that doesn’t have a Linux alternative).

  I was dual booting with Windows ME (which worked well for my computer). Distro hopping until I bootstrapped Gentoo from stage one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you are not in a tech field, what got you into self-hosting?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Android phone and Own tracks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you are not in a tech field, what got you into self-hosting?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m a social worker by background. It all started with running Linux on my desktop.

  From there, the possibilities seemed endless.

  Have you tried the collabora app for mobile?

  I think Joplin has a spreadsheet plug-in.

  I believe the early Microsoft one did that well, but the popular ones (grok, chathpt, Gemini) will only when asked (in my experience).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A generation taught not to think: AI in the classroom⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Can you provide an example?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A generation taught not to think: AI in the classroom⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  My optimism tells me this issue will be short lived. Unless someone can find a very creative way to monetize AI so that it is sustainable, it will likely crash (with local instances continuing to get development).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A generation taught not to think: AI in the classroom⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s great! I felt the “no Wikipedia” was short sighted (UNLESS one of the teaching goals was doing research in an actual library!).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A generation taught not to think: AI in the classroom⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Wikipedia is better than an encyclopedia, IMO, because the references are super easy to follow.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A generation taught not to think: AI in the classroom⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I spent some years in classrooms as a service provider when Wikipedia was all the rage. Most districts had a “no Wikipedia” policy, and required primary sources.

  My kids just graduated high school, and they were told NOT to use LLM’s (though some of their teachers would wink). Their current college professors use LLM detection software.

  AI and Wikipedia are not the same, though. Students are better off with Wikipedia as they MIGHT read the references.

  Still, those students who WANT to learn will not be held back by AI.

  “This sounds like a your carrier problem, not an eSIM problem.”

  This is true, and we the consumer have no control of the carrier decisions. With a physical SIM, we have at least a little.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft AI CEO pushes back against critics after recent Windows AI backlash — "the fact that people are unimpressed ... is mindblowing to me"⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And Windows isn’t telling them. That’s part of the issue. If Cortana could tell them “this boot was slow because your video driver missed an update necessary for other system packages. Would you like me to show you how to fix that now?” that would be a win for your typical user.

  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Handset_Alliance

  Google doesn’t “own” Android. They (and the OHA) are the maintainers. AOSP is open source.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google Confirms Non-ADB APK Installs Will Require Developer Registration⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you certain you’ll be able to do this? Do you have more info?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google Confirms Non-ADB APK Installs Will Require Developer Registration⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What happened to the Open Handset Alliance?

  BANG! “I did it again, I hate myself. Poor guy was minding his own business and hadn’t done anything to me.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MAGA Puts Wikipedia in Its Crosshairs⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sure, but many will cite a news organization’s opinion page as fact. Is this a good reason for any administration to target opinion pages?

  The administration is supposed to represent the Constitution, not attack it.

  Remember your constitution; particularly the 1st amendment.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MAGA Puts Wikipedia in Its Crosshairs⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s always been a jumping-off point, not a primary source. It’s still fantastic that way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bethesda is allegedly working on ‘multiple Fallout games’, including Fallout 3 Remastered, teases report⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  FO3 was my first fallout experience, and I loved it. Currently playing 4, and it’s not as engaging. Some elements are cool (building), but the stories seem flat.

  Can you expand on the idea that it’s not a good fallout game? What does that mean? What makes a good fallout game.

  Thanks!
