Would this probably work if you connect to their Wi-Fi?

EDIT: I am smart, I promise

Localhost denotes the device itself. It would work if your phone were running a web server with the cafe's menu hosted on it

I almost said yes, but no, localhost is your own device. If it was a 192.168 ip it would be different.

But their subnet is 10.1.1.0/24

Crazy to me how rarely people use 10 over 192.168

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

It was weird, it was like one day I woke up and suddenly everybody else was using 192.168.1.0/24

I'll know it's the future when I start seeing http://[fe80::xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx]/ link fuckups.

Listen, you’re in good company. I literally almost posted this and then I realized. Made my day that I wasn’t the only one.

Also, it’s amazing that someone made QR codes with a localhost URL.

You'd still go to localhost, so realistically: no.
