We hosted a website on a Raspberry Pi from a mobile data connection

lets try and crash it

Posting an RPi project when you literally cannot find an RPi4 on the continent because of the “chipageddon” is just cruel.

Nice,no internal collision detection in the snake game,you can left-right yourself into a small pile while you decide your next move or reverse direction completely

Came to say this.

On a serious note though, it's not serving files that's the issue. It's rather once you need processing done that it will choke.

Imagine you could travel back to the 90's and tell someone that, in less than 25 years, you could be running all of this off a PC the size of a credit card with more RAM than they had hard drive space with the total power consumption of one spinning hard drive.

Now imagine what we will have access to in 25 years from now

Not as big a leap. We have hit the ceiling of current technology limits.

unrestricted APN for the specific network.

These are available at request for Vodacom and Cell C customers and is enabled by default for most Telkom Mobile and Afrihost Air Mobile connections.

Vodacom ... contract or prepaid? I followed their instructions and sent in the form but they were not answering my emails and I gave up on them. Maybe I will give the others a go.

Technology is definitely not a linear path. There are years that go by when innovation is stagnant, and others where development is rapid. I hope the next best thing is around the corner, much like multi-core CPU's were a huge leap forward in terms of overall speed, especially when the frequency limits were reached and limited due to heat output.

And of course, competition is also a huge factor which drives innovation and ends up being a net win for consumers. Look at how AMD shook up the market with their Ryzen processors and got Intel to pull finger and start competing.

I got 34 points before started losing brain cells, so I stopped playing.

Decided to buy a pi4

Wtf. These things are on backorder for months
