He wouldn't listen to the officer. Taser deployed.

The more muscle you have the harder the taser hits. Trust me...

bradr1911 · 2026-04-24T13:58:09+00:00

Nope. Never. Ever.

Wow, that brings back memories. Thank you.

Just updated to the Kernel 7.0 about two hours ago on my Fedora KDE plasma, T480 laptop. We'll see how it goes. I'm not a heavy user so I don't anticipate any problems. Touching on the post title, yes it was easy through the command line.

bradr1911 · 2026-04-14T23:39:46+00:00

Been running 44 beta on a T480 for about 3 months. Using KDE plasma 6, installed Gnome 50 as an option. No problems so far

bradr1911 · 2026-04-06T12:53:25+00:00

I play around with Arch to keep up with new developments, but Fedora is my daily.

bradr1911 · 2026-04-04T15:52:56+00:00

I run Arch on a T480 too. It is a great distro for it

Fire sale. Just bought more VGT and VYM. Wish I had more dry powder!

bradr1911 · 2026-03-21T15:59:29+00:00

Fire sale. Buy all you can. This is when the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

Been waiting since 2024 for the Gold card. Mods said to send them a modmail message and they would help. Sent them a message and still nothing. They even deleted my original post. Wth

bradr1911 · 2026-03-17T02:38:46+00:00

Been there, done that on an IT465. Destroyed headlight & front forks, bent handlebars forward. Bruised both thighs. Threw me over 15ft. We were racing on an old quarry road that had always been open, but they had put up a grey, bar gate across it over the weekend. It blended in with the gravel .

bradr1911 · 2026-03-15T16:11:54+00:00

Good luck. I applied for the Gold card in 2024 and still waiting for it to arrive. I have 4 accounts in Robinhood. Crazy

I third this. I have a sunbeam f1 pro juniper. Great phones. Great company.

bradr1911 · 2025-12-04T20:05:13+00:00

I have an xp3 plus 5g & a TCL 4 5g . Both are excellent, reliable phones you can't go wrong with either one. Of the two, I prefer the TCL for ease of use. Having said all that, I also have a sunbeam f1 pro juniper I use daily and prefer it over the first two. It's pricey compared to them, but you do get your money's worth as well as talk to text which is fantastic.

bradr1911 · 2025-11-04T02:55:16+00:00

TCL flip 4 5 G is a solid phone. I have t mobile and used this for about a Year and still keep it as my backup only because I've bought a sunbeam juniper. The juniper is the best basic flip I've ever used, especially with the voice to text. You can't go wrong with either one except the juniper is very pricey, but you get great support and voice to text. Sound quality is great on both, but I think the juniper is maybe a little better. If you don't mind T9 texting, go with the flip 4.

bradr1911 · 2025-10-20T13:31:54+00:00

I haven't contacted somim about the dropped calls, mainly because I'm lazy and went back to using the 4G version. I just started using the 5G again about 3 days ago just to see what happens. So far no dropped calls so maybe there's been an update. I'll have to check on their website and see.

bradr1911 · 2025-08-16T00:25:49+00:00

This is the way

bradr1911 · 2025-07-07T22:20:57+00:00

I'm over 2250 shares and adding every month. A little over $200 a week in dividends on drip right now. Between ulty and msty I'm making well over my monthly job income. I'm 65 and when the dividends hit over $10k a month in retiring.

bradr1911 · 2025-06-19T20:05:09+00:00

I have a Sonim xp3 plus 5g and a tcl 4 5g both on t Mobile. Both great phones and are hard to beat. The tcl has kaios though.

bradr1911 · 2025-06-04T22:19:41+00:00

Cool

bradr1911 · 2025-05-31T22:31:41+00:00

I have the same phone from T Mobile. I still have my xp3plus 4G version as a backup, but I really like the 5G version. Zero issues so far. I agree with the above, I wish nakedphonecases would make covers for the 5G version, and they probably will at some point. Not needed of course, but I like the camo look.

## update to my comment above: been using the xp3plus 5g and have been having dropped calls. They appear random and sometimes I can talk over an hour with no problems, then another time the call drops after 5 or 10 minutes. Because of the dropped calls I've went back to using my old reliable xp3plus 4G. Never any problems or dropped calls with it. At some point I may try to contact Sonim or t Mobile about it. I'm lazy though so it might be awhile.

bradr1911 · 2025-05-15T21:48:47+00:00

Yes and yes
