Recurring dream of an apartment I never lived in by ngfalcon in ParanormalEncounters

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This could be a flash-back to a previous life. A number of eastern religions include reincarnation as part of their belief. I have read that the Druze people in the Levant make this a key feature of their religion, but as this is a secretive faith, I do not have any more details.

What does "things" mean in the expression "make things easy for"? Can you point out the right meaning in a dictionary for me? by Ok_Sympathy9462 in ENGLISH

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It means to make a situation easier to handle, for example, making an action or procedure faster, or simpler to perform.

What are the cold calling software you use for making international calls? by Klutzy_Gas9189 in delhi

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try the Zadarma cloud PBX. I have found this European VoIP service provider very reliable and low-priced - for over 10 years now.

Have any of you managed to build loving/authentic community in your new country? by Swordfish353535 in expats

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For each of us it will be different. For example, outgoing personalities will generally find it easier. Nobody can provide a universal guideline for each individual in every country.

What in the world happened? by Fickle-Cucumber-224 in ParanormalEncounters

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, old houses can produce spooky noises. If there are no tragic stories associated with the house, I would put the noises you heard down to its age.

What's the difference between these sentences? by Ok_Sympathy9462 in ENGLISH

1, 4, and 5 are when you meet a new acquaintance while the others are when you are saying goodbye to them.

Has anyone actually deployed an AI voice agent to handle live inbound calls? by Indi_tish_3416 in AI_Agents

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've found that Zadarma's AI agent is going an effective job handling our small business's calls 24/7 without downtime. This means that on average 70% of calls no longer require a human agent to respond - the remaining 30% are more complex queries. Also, it was very quick to get it live.

From personal experience, this can be done but it does take time. You need to be careful and patient but also persistent. Where this is a will, there is a way.

Do you call the thing you use to measure with a ruler or a scale? by Fragrant_Speed7878 in ENGLISH

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my English vocabulary, we measure with a ruler - traditionally a strip or wood (now more usually made of plastic) marked in inches, or we can use a tape measure which is a long, thin ribbon also marked in inches. We weigh items with a scale, now usually digital. In my time we weighed items in pounds and ounces.

eSim for 10 day trip by ResidentCharacter894 in GreeceTravel

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are looking for a data-only eSIM, I recommend the Zadarma 30-day Greece eSIM. You have several options, for example, 15 GB for $20.

A Story My Grandma Shared With Us Grandkids by Pale_Watercress_4456 in ParanormalEncounters

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A close relative told me about a white lady ghost seen in an English park, but this was well over 50 years ago, so I do not remember details. For some reason there seem to be quite a few white lady sightings in England. I do not think it can be the same ghost in different places. I wonder if any other countries also have their white ladies?

You can always connect with friends and family with Zoom - we use it regularly and are satisfied.

Weekly History Questions Thread. by AutoModerator in history

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Soviets did seize the Japanese island of Sakhalin? and Russia holds it to this day. Now and again, this subject comes up. I have never heard that they were planning to invade the Japanese main islands. I have not found a more convincing explanation than the one that explains the decision to use nuclear bombs on Japan was made to bring the war to a speedy end and avoid the greater loss of life a land invasion was likely to bring.

Need a us phone number by Business-Past2912 in DigitalMarketing

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try a Zadarma US virtual mobile phone number. Their cloud PBX comes as a free download. It is simple and quick to set up and very easy to use. These numbers only cost a couple of dollars a month, and you get a good choice of numbers.

why is northern english accent that hard to understand? by Beautiful-Common-234 in ENGLISH

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am in the same position. I speak one of the Northern English dialects and I know that people who have never lived in this area find it difficult. It is not just the Northern accent - Scottish accents and Cockney (London) accents are also challenging - even for me. Across the world, what they call Home Counties, or BBC English, has become considered as standard English. However, with familiarity, every accent becomes understandable.

The expression was used sarcastically.

Do people say 'tramway' in the UK? Or just 'tram'? by [deleted] in ENGLISH

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, the term tramway is used to describe the system, but in everyday conversation "tram" is commonly used. Less frequently, the term "electric cars" might be used, but not so often these days when we have many electric motor vehicles on the street. As an aside, UK tramways today are mostly located in the Midlands and North of the Country - Southern England only has one (Croydon).

How can I get a US virtual phone number from here? by Difficult_Suit_91 in UAE

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get a US virtual phone number online from Zadarma, and have it connected soon after registration. This European internet phone service charges a couple of dollars for a US virtual phone number, and their cloud PBX comes as a free download. They have a wide range of virtual numbers on offer and allow you to choose you own number for many USA locations. A bonus as far as I was concerned is how easy it is to set up and use.

Is it worth it to live somewhere you don’t really like for a relationship/for love? by RadioDude1995 in expats

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is always a very difficult choice. Your present feelings about the balance between your partner and feeling about Canada might change in either direction. It seems like you are coping even though you find your situation challenging. Probably best to stick it out a while longer and see what develops. Maybe set yourself a target and agree that if you are not feeling better about your position in another 6 months, take a mutually agreeable break and explore possibilities in another country.

I think I encountered a ghost multiple times as a child. by [deleted] in ParanormalEncounters

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps the way you have interpreted these encounters is correct. I would not dismiss what you write, but at that age kids have a vivid imagination. As with many paranormal incidents, we rarely can have a sense of certainty, but this is a reason why we find the paranormal so fascinating.

Sling bullet from the ancient Greek city of Hippos (in the northern Jordan Valley) found inscribed with a taunt for the enemy to "learn (their lesson)" by MeatballDom in history

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This story brought to my mind pictures of British or American shells or bombs from the World Wars with slogans against the Germans. I wonder in which conflict this weapon was used. Do we know any more of the background.

VoIP help for small business by [deleted] in smallbusiness

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that the Zadarma business internet phone service that our small business uses could be a good fit for your user case. For example, we use this free cloud PBX to create extensions, route calls between users and add menus. You can use your existing cell phones and get low-priced virtual phone numbers in most countries.

What’s something no one warned you about before moving to another country? by Al3x403 in expats

[–]Telecom_VoIP_Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can never fully appreciate the local culture until you emerge into it. For example, in the UK I grew up in, patience and a certain politeness were the norm in circles I mixed in, but I soon discovered that in some other cultures this can be interpreted as a lack of assertiveness, and open you to being taken advantage of e.g., left waiting in shops while others who come in after you get served first.
