I still have the T-Mobile G1 phone plan.

Man that was a great phone.

My plan isn’t quite that old, but it’s getting up there. They recently increased my price by a few dollars per line. Then they tried to get me to move to a current plan, which turned out to be 20% higher price for less return. I had to try not to burst out laughing at the poor guy’s face.

I’ve been with TMo for more than 20 years–they’re the only carrier I’ve ever used–but if my price goes up again I’m jumping ship.

I still don’t know if a USB micro or mini is the one that charges my PS4 controller

It’s Micro-B, to be specific.

Maybe we should chip in and buy a second robot.

Hear me out: three robots.

You don’t actually give the card to the employees, do you?

Typically when I go through a drive thru, I hand my card to someone who then leans back inside to swipe/tap/whatever it, then they hand it back. So yes, commonly I do give my card to an employee for at least a few seconds.

During 2020-2022 more of them were in the habit of placing the PIN pad at the window so it could be reached by customers from their cars, but it wasn’t designed to be used that way and I’m sure it caused other issues.

This is why i want a freakin 3d printer fr

Your local library may have one to print things for you. Saves that forward investment of materials and (some) skill.

What’s France?

“Wester Germany”

If you wrap the TV in tinfoil, it’ll be a faraday cage and block all WiFi

I just keep my TV embedded in a block of lead.

Honestly any parts you buy today probably won’t be much good in 30 years.

At least not when AGP comes to town.

That’s why I only use “*******” for mine. With the number, it’s more secure.

I guess it works because I can’t see the password.

Has science gone too far?

Science isn’t about why, it’s about why not.
