During the #IM2 mission, the #4G cell 📱 network will allow for #communication between the lander and the two vehicles. But #Nokia has plans for a more expansive 4G or 5G cell network that can cover the planned #Artemis habitat and its surroundings. The company is also working on integrating cell communications in Axiom #spacesuits meant for future lunar #astronauts 👩‍🚀 technologyreview.com/2025/02/1

Nokia is putting the first cellular network on the moon

The radiation-hardened technology will get its first test in an upcoming mission to the lunar south pole.
"
".. full-scale cell network on the moon would add further noise to the night sky."

"“Using 4G frequencies on or around the moon is a violation of the ITU-R radio regulations”"

[#TLDR: JUST TELL ME IF YOUR TABLET CAN DO #CALLS!]

#DearVendors of #Android-#Tablets:

Off all the #Functions you can put into a #Specifications Sheet of your Devices there's one you should ALWAYS answer clearly on your #Website:

DOES YOUR TABLET [with #4G / #5G / …) SUPPORT MAKING PHONE CALLS?

Like: IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK TO HAVE THAT INFO IN THE SPECSHEETS?

You're obviously able to list all the #Codecs natively supported and the user-available storage as well as supported Frequency Bands, WWAN modes, WiFi channel width and the Display Glass vs. Panel dimensions including DPI of the latter and whether or not it has a hall effect sensor to detect your overpriced 1st party tablet covers!

Now some folks may ask: "WHY does this matter?" or outright dismiss this as a problem.

Listen:
Not everyone is able or willing to carry two devices when 1 SHOULD BE ENOUGH and also some places (i.e. #Turkey) have #ImportRestrictions re: #MobileDevices, so having more than 1 #IMEI is already a "NOPE!" by the authorities.

  • Also this isn't something one can "fix" post-purchase like installing #VLC to decode some obscure file format in Software: Either the #Baseband and #ROM support #PhoneCalls or they don't!

So why do NONE of the #Tablet manufacturers allow to #search or #filter for that???

NO, instead one has to download an obscenely huge #PDF just to then read on page 34 that for any "#telephony" function you NEED YET ANOTHER DEVICE FROM THE SAME MANUFACTURER AND HAVE TO SIGNUP WITH AN ACCOUNT and even that level of #abuse WON'T GUARANTEE THAT IT WORKS...

  • I mean, come on, this ain't some obscure functionality like #OMAPI to do some "evil sourcery" like managing an #eSIM that is in a #SIM-Card form factor!

Pretty shure A LOT of other folks have the same question and ain't willing to get yet another device & #SIM just to recieve the occasional call because #TechIlliterates can't be assed to send an #eMail or learn #XMPP+#OMEMO to message one...

  • Obviously they same manufacturers are able and willing to specify f-stops of the built-in cameras and list EVERY SINGLE #WEARABLE they made and certify as 'compatible' with, as if anyone is gonna take their non-#waterproof #Tablet for a marathon or god forbid triathlon...

YES. YES. FUCK YES. THAT'S THE POWER OF PINE-SOL GSM, BABY!

That's the cellular card on my laptop working. And it was a right pain in the fluff too. But hey, it works. Initial speedtest says it's faster than my wifi (with my AP literally across the same room, and it showing my cell signal as 9%)... but doing a yay -Syu shows that it's actually like 2-6 MiB/s vs 36 MiB/s.

"BT has issued an update on its plans to retire its 2G network, marking the end of a technology first introduced in the early 1990s. The company’s 2G network, which operates under its EE brand, currently handles just 0.1 percent of the data traffic coursing through the company’s infrastructure."

That's such a crap metric. Like saying "Royal mail postal service carries 0.1% of telephone calls"..
What would be a more helpful metric is what percentage of calls go over #2G

Telefonieren oder mobil Surfen mit 4G (LTE)? Ein Standard heutzutage möchte man meinen. Doch bei uns in den Ortschaften #Nankendorf und #Löhlitz der Stadt #Waischenfeld ist dies bisher immer noch nicht möglich. Ob man zu Fuß oder mit einem Fahrzeug unterwegs ist, sobald man unsere Ortschaften erreicht, ist erst einmal Schluss mit Mobilfunkempfang. Willkommen im #Funkloch. Dazu berichteten wir bereits mehrfach.
