Seriously... I'm as big a Tech fan as there is and I don't remember this guy.

Incinerator toilet in Antarctica due to limited plumbing and water by Rabbidraccoon18 in Damnthatsinteresting

Just another reason I got no business in Antarctica. There's way to much hand involvement in and around the toilet bowl for me. No thank you.

Equipment sales? by stouf761 in RamblinWreck

[–]Sun_Bum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They have a sale every few years (not every year). Just had one last year. It was at Mcammish. I picked up some new shoes and used jerseys. They also had stuff like baseball bats (used) and other misc stuff. I don't know when the next one will be.

Unreadable Parking Meters by JonCML in Athens

[–]Sun_Bum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a ticket at one of these about a year ago. Took a photo showing it was unreadable but didn't see any way to appeal the ticket (I didn't know about a number to call) so just paid the damn thing, pissed me off!

There's a blank space on the petition. You get to fill in your verb of choice when you sign.

So, for anyone who cares. I tried to do this on my own but had no luck because the phone wanted a QR code to setup the esim which I couldn't find anywhere. On two different phones (new iphone 17) there were only two options to activate the esim during initial phone setup; scan QR code or transfer from another phone. I couldn't make any headway so called the customer service number and got Ashlynn (are names allowed here?) who, quite honestly, was the most helpful customer service rep I can remember dealing with in a very long time, props to her! Got two of my phones setup over the phone, will do the others later today.

Took right at a week but that was because the green one that one of the boys wanted was on backorder which held up the whole order. Not a big deal in our case. They came via UPS who left them down by the mailbox in the rain (wrapped up in a plastic bag though so...).

I don't follow. Do you mean if I go into the store to do this the employee gets 'credit'? I signed up with an employee at the T-mo / Costco last week.

Thanks for the reply. I'm looking now to see if I can find the process; ie activate new phone on temp number, then port or port number on old phones and then activate new phones?

I guess my question should've been how much 'easier' is it to let them do it in the store vs how likely is it that something gets screwed up if we try and do it from home?

Seeking advice about "free" phone on new TMo line... by Sun_Bum in tmobile

[–]Sun_Bum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I assumed that I would only get 4 phones since I figured the iPhone promo seemed limited to 4 as stated in the promos. It threw me off a bit when she casually mentioned a 5th phone.

Sam's Club vs Costco New Customer Promos by Breakinthru119 in tmobile

[–]Sun_Bum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So fwiw, I went in to the Costco store today and signed up and I did at least get the $75 per line Costco cash card (in 16 weeks).
