minus-squareEkky@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up13·1 day agoYou’d still go to localhost, so realistically: no.

minus-squarestoy@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up7·1 day agoIT technician here, without modifying the hosts file on your computer it won’t work. You can assume that this will never work on anything other than the development box, regardless of what network you are connected to.
minus-squarezurohki@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·21 hours ago without modifying the hosts file on your computer it won’t work Wouldn’t be surprised if even that didn’t work - localhost resolving to something that isn’t the local host is the sort of thing that’d get blocked by browsers as a security exploit.
minus-squareZagorath@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up7arrow-down2·1 day agoI like these digital menus. For large groups they’re so much better than all coordinating when you’re ready to order, ordering, and later working out how to split the bill. They also let you order in your own time, no need to have someone hovering waiting for you to be ready, or not be there at all. Though my experience is that they’re mostly used at pubs and clubs, where they replace ordering at the counter, rather than table service. The worst thing is that they always ask for a fucking tip. Shitty companies trying to import even shittier American bullshit.
minus-square4am@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up6·23 hours agoDigital menus that supplement the paper menus and in-person servers are fine. Digital menus that are the only option and are used to surge price are garbage
minus-squarebrian@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 day agoTheoretically, it would be cheaper for the company if they do new menus frequently. A lot quicker too, potentially.
