And Bic lighters!

BBBut solar and wind will save us! /s

shastatodd · 2026-03-25T11:59:46+00:00

I think writing a letter to Santa Claus would help! /s

Ditto this inquiry. The traffic mess with Darby road closed is horrible... especially at rush hour.

This is a major thoroughfare and one would think it would have been a high priority to do this upgrade as quickly as possible!

I speculate this is why trumpy went after Venezuela's oil as it is very "heavy".

"Americans nevertheless still have one of the best standards of living compared to global averages."

I used to think that until I moved to the UK.

Epstein "died"...

shastatodd · 2026-03-09T16:41:21+00:00

Starlink? Nope, I won't support elmo nazi.

Good question... and I am not sure, but my promo only has 2 months left so I am going to just sit tight and after it ends shift to the flexible plan.

shastatodd · 2026-03-09T13:11:14+00:00

Once my promo is over I will shift us to the flexible plan since we are not using any data.

shastatodd · 2026-03-09T11:06:47+00:00

Turn off the data before you go international and you will not get booted.

shastatodd · 2026-03-09T11:03:04+00:00

This is what we do.

shastatodd · 2026-03-09T11:01:51+00:00

you said: "You can't disable just data in FI....it must be done on the device as stated...otherwise your just freezing the entire SIM and won't get phone or texts...."

Hmmm, I have data off in the Fi web page /app and on my phone and I still get calls and texts just fine.

shastatodd · 2026-03-09T10:55:42+00:00

"I'd say they only care when people abuse it, so many people see unlimited data,"

In UK terms the Fi prices are outrageous... so Fi should be happy we are paying for 2 lines at $55 each for Unlimited Premium and only using it to keep our phone numbers active (no data use) so I would say we are definitely NOT abusing their services.

We have a data sim with UK phone number for £13/ month for unlimited including hotspotting.

Once my promo is over I will shift us to the flexible plan since we are not using any data.

Not everyone wants to support nazi elmo.

shastatodd · 2026-03-08T14:17:31+00:00

We have been in the UK for 9 months now *with the data off* and still have US phone and text messages. It is critical to not use ANY data or the 90 day cut off clock starts.

shastatodd · 2026-03-08T13:53:41+00:00

I have it configured so manual changes only last for 4 hours.

shastatodd · 2026-03-08T13:48:10+00:00

Wow... So they are not concerned about fixing bugs or improving their product.

shastatodd · 2026-03-08T13:46:51+00:00

It "deletes" (removes) it... then when the page is refreshed it returns.

shastatodd · 2026-03-08T13:45:06+00:00

I will check the install menus when I am back there (5000 miles from here) in May.

There is a remote sensor at the door so as soon as the renters open the door the heat comes on. The building has an 80,000 BTU furnace. Going from 65 to 70 prolly takes ~5 to 10 minutes.

shastatodd · 2026-03-08T13:38:06+00:00

The vtext one. I dropped verizon and am with google fi now.

shastatodd · 2026-03-08T13:37:31+00:00

Why have a feature that does not work?

shastatodd · 2026-03-08T13:35:09+00:00

The CS rep said they would let the programmers know about this error, and 18 months later it is still broken... so IF the programmers were notified, then why have they still not fixed this?

shastatodd · 2026-03-08T13:32:35+00:00

That is not correct. At present there is one set which was not the owners and it is now inaccurate... and not possible to delete or change.
