Please don't feel like you should follow me just because I followed you! You're probably way cooler than I am.
Sometimes I get chatty (procrastinating). Mute me for a while and I swear I will get the hint and go away. Or just tell me to go back to work.
Please don't hesitate to DM me if I did something boneheaded or you just need to chat. <3
Friends dog who would pee every time she saw me.
Every time I get an Unsolicited Bulk Email promising me "solutions", this is what pops in to my mind.
Have been using an AT&T reseller but the phone (even stuck up as high as I can put it) goes in to searching for signal frequently and has to be rebooted (which is awkward when I have it stuck up somewhere high). T-Mobile I figured out does better but T-Mobile's official plans are a terrible value at $2.40/gb. Verizon couldn't pull a signal either. The T-Mobile reseller I'm using now works but data is also insanely expensive. Trying different T-Mobile resellers promising plans with better rates, I'm repeatedly failing to activate. They're just broken... I don't want the app and I doubt it runs on my antique Android device but I guess I could fire up the x86_64 Android VM and try installing it on that. I could try calling to activate but then is the whole web portal going to be this broken if activation is? Or if I can activate and it works, they switch away from T-Mobile, like LycaMobile and USMobile did. I tried Metro by T-Mobile and also failed to activate. Yet another time vampire.
Since Android walled its already shitty garden off, I should get a Symbian phone.
