  If this is a phone he’s actually using he just might be in a subway xD

    Come to my country. 100% 5G antenna + 100% WIFI anywhere in any metro.
    • lma21 3y ago
      Where is that?
      • BrandoElFollito 3y ago
        Probably Monaco or the Vatican (though none have a subway). Because in a real country you always have blind spots, even in relatively easier points such as the Netherlands (flat and populated)
        • jefftk 3y ago
          The Vatican sort of has a subway. It has a single train station, which has (rare) passenger service, and about 100m of train tunnel.

            Ah, I had no idea! Thanks for sharing that. For reference, the Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vatican_Railway https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vatican_Railway

            similarly Monaco doesn't have a subway, but their train station is in a tunnel so I think that would probably count in this instance: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monaco-Monte-Carlo_station https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monaco-Monte-Carlo_station

          I remember marvelling at the full mobile phone coverage in the Stockholm underground network 20 years ago. London's tube will manage it any year now, I'm sure...

        Don't know how far the 5g rollout is, but in Vienna, Austria we have full 4g in all subway lines and stations since 2018. No need for wifi.

        Well, Moscow had signal carrying cables in the metro for years. Full coverage since 2018: https://www.expresstorussia.com/news/the-moscow-metro-now-has-a-full-4g-coverage.html https://www.expresstorussia.com/news/the-moscow-metro-now-ha... I have always been confused how some countries have such bad coverage. Before Wi-Fi Calling, it was a nightmare to be inside any apartment building I've been to.

  It's doubtful that a phone can withstand the tidal wave of requests that follows from being on the front page of HN.
  • tyingq 3y ago
    Well, the phones that could handle it are locked down too hard to run your own web server.

    I'm not. Today smartphone CPUs are very powerful. The CPU in the Pixel 6 for exemple, is equal to a 2012 intel cpu server: https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare/5349vs1193/Google-Tensor-vs-Intel-Xeon-E3-1275-V2 https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare/5349vs1193/Google-Tenso...
