Steve, buy a good, old iPhone 6 for cheap off of CraigsList.

Put the SIM card from your old phone into the new phone.

Restore your phone from the backup on your computer.

You’re welcome.

 

[SteveC]

Shit! Brings you back to your teens!

Almost, actually. I remember when I was younger than my teens... our house phone was a wall, rotary phone (with a big long coiled cord). We had what was known as a "party line". It was fun to listen in on our neighbors phone calls.

Never used one of those but I'm aware of them. Sounds crazy.


Until quite recently there was a line type called "Hoot and Holler". Probably still is around in a purely digital flavour.

I actually thought about doing that. Then, I decided to just bite the bullet and make the leap up to newer technology. I'm sure that decision will end up getting shoved up my ass, somehow <sigh>

You seem to have a phone hang-up.

So staying indoors did no feckin' good then, did it...!

Got a pic of Steve's last call with the old phone. Sad.

Don't give me shit for buying Apple... I am so invested in that ecosystem and I refuse to change.

My Android would have shut off the washer automatically but.......

I've had way to much time on my hands and I'm going to go full conspiracy now.

People had been demonstrating all over the world and the governments have not been able to stop them until?

Covid-19!


What two important movements started as a result of the 2008 stock market crash, subsequent depression and bailouts of banking/business interests?

The Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street!


What can they do to keep Americans from organizing this go around?

Two fold approach.
1. Covid -19!
2. A promise of crumbs in the form of cash!

While I believe this a legitimate virus, from who knows where, we are being manipulated.

Feels like a drill of sorts or a dry run of some kind.

Oh yeah and least we forget Jeffrey Epstein did not kill himself.

You mean the other stuff was just a warm up?

How many cranks did it take to get the operator?

 

[Roberteaux]

Figures!

It is. There's a certainly some truth in that article, but the issue of lack of clear statistics doesn't mean that we can make up the ones we want either.

There's absolutely a clear issue with differentiation between "died with Covid" and "died because of Covid". Counting all who "died with Covid" as the same as "died because of Covid" doesn't mean that all those who died were "with", not "because of".

Ultimately we need more stats, we don't need more assumptions. Assumptions are of course unavoidable to a significant degree because there are so many unknowns.

A lot of folks mistake data for information.
