A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Does your friend have a static IP? Unlikely considering that you have to pay extra for a static IP.
We are lucky, we get two free. Technically they aren't true static, its tied to MAC of your modem, or your router(s) -- with ISP modem in bridge mode. You can pay for true static, but I have probably had the same IP for 5 years, and same with the modem/routerbeforre this one.
@Emmie @Scary_le_Poo That depends on the ISP, there's still some out there that will give you one for free.
