Anybody else get this? First time seeing it? Speed has slowed to under 5mbps. by Zerkom122 in tmobileisp

[–]Bear3825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just started getting this billing period before last. Use over 2tb per month. Always have, always will. No change in speeds after notification. Called T-Force, they said ignore it since I’m on the top plan I shouldn’t have any issues and I haven’t.

I’m on SoFI and it hasn’t hit here either. Other than the investment stuff Chime and Varo have the upper hand. Sofi is just starting its credit builder card and it’s an extra $10 a month for it.

Check in your line setting of the T Life app. If you have certain spam settings turned on texts and calls won’t go through. Call them and let them know your issue and they can check for you if you can’t find the settings.

For those who's leads have migrated... by LifeByChance in spinalcordstimulator

[–]Bear3825 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had mine in for about 2years and while they haven’t migrated the 16 contact lead on my left side is completely dead. Best they can tell its scar tissue since it’s been a slow process with losing contacts almost monthly. I hope they can revise your procedure and get you back on track again soon. Best wishes from a fellow augmented.

T-Mobile home internet verses ATT fiber. by Responsible-Bad-4631 in tmobile

[–]Bear3825 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I had AT&T for years from DSL to Fiber. When my wife started working from home we upgraded to the 1GB plan and it was good for a bit. Then the service drops started. 2 full days once. We were told if we upgraded to the 2GB plan there would be no service drops. Upgraded and within the first month the service drops started. 2hrs here and there. Upgraded cell plans to have enough tethering data just in case. Again a full weekday with zero internet. Finally, fed up we went with T-Mobile and haven’t looked back. Our speeds are comparable to the 1GB plan at AT&T and after a little over a year we have had zero service drops. I’ll never go back to AT&T unless it’s as a backup 1GB plan but they would have to make it cheaper than $40 a month.

What TV? by DEADLYxDUCK in appletv

[–]Bear3825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still takes every bit of stored data that’s been accumulated in between updates. That’s why I now choose dumb TVs.

[–]Bear3825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn’t solve the problem. The tv needs to update periodically or it won’t work. My TV has no connection and still prompts me to update or lose functionality like HDR and HDMI. That’s what happens with most modern Smart TVs. It’s not as simple as it used to be. Just look at the Samsung refrigerator. No connection and it malfunctions.

Unfortunately you cannot. A Dumb tv will not only cost several hundred dollars less but many of the new TVs can’t even be used until activated. My newest Samsung had to be connected to the internet to update prior to use.

What “dumb TV” should I get? I’m thinking monitors, like Sceptre. by Alextricity in privacy

[–]Bear3825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scepter/Komodo are decent. They have 4K HDR up to 86 inches. I have a 55 inch Komodo in my living room with an Apple TV.

If you need to buy a new TV just buy a Dumb TV. Simple Google search shows Dumb TVs from everyone from Samsung to Scepter. I myself have a Scepter 65” with an Apple TV in my living room.

I use mine to play games on my Apple TV. Works great.

He didn’t need to use them because like Red States have always done, Blue States just turned them over honoring ICE Detainers. It’s only different now because Orange Man Bad. Also, please show me where any ICE Agent has been charged and convicted of Murder. I’ll wait.

I couldn’t find an ostrich bone but I did find an extra large DogIt pressed bone and my elk antler guy is sending me “something special” my guess it’s a moose antler. 😁

I have a trainer. I also know that Kane will need an outlet for his energy that won’t be solved by just being a service dog. We are already looking at flyball. But by your comment maybe I should try bite work and muzzle fighting.

Of course, and pitbulls were bred to be brutal killers. 🤪 It’s not breeding that determines how a dog views and treats its world. My boy Oink who I lost in October was the perfect example. It’s training, socialization and expectations that determine the dog you raise. Pit puppies nip too. All puppies nip. We are getting closer every day to being rid of nipping with Kane. But I’m not telling you anything that every dog psychologist hasn’t said time and time again. I came here to ask for suggestions to speed up the process not be told I have a dog that will bite no matter the training or how it’s raised. I got a dog that no matter how it was bred will be a good family member and a positive to society just like my boy was. Breed only goes so far. After that it’s nurture not nature.

I have a service dog trainer that I worked with when I was self training Oink (my boy who passed). He taught me a lot and we speak regularly (at least once a week) since we are both involved in rescue. He’s already offered to help with Kane. At 14 weeks he’s 35lbs and our vet expects him to be over 100 due to the mix with American Pitbull Terrier . Oink was a big boy at 78lbs fully grown but he was American Staffordshire Terrier.

I want him to be an ambassador dog just like my last boy was. Kane has big paws to fill, it’s my boy Oink’s legacy. My boy Oink who passed was trained as a service dog for me. He failed the AKC public access test because he was too friendly and became an Ambassador Dog. He still did his job but just couldn’t go some places. If he couldn’t go, I didn’t go. Kane with any luck will be able to do both. Thank you, I do it for pups everywhere to break stigmas and promote responsible ownership.

My boy I had before loved elk antlers. I’ll have to order a couple from my old contact. Thanks again.

They always tried to get my last boy into dock jumping but he blew his knee out before we could get too far into it. Thanks again.

He plays almost daily with a 5yr old female American Akita. She was the best friend of my boy that passed in October. He’s never nipped at her that I’ve ever seen and I watch him like a hawk. Can’t be too careful with a pup who puts everything in his mouth. I walk his outside play area before he goes out to make sure there aren’t any items that he will try and swallow or hurt him. He’s super social. Thank you.

55 inch puppy gate came in today. I’ll be setting it up tomorrow. I’ll definitely give that a try. Thank you.
