lol. Topical
Holy hell
That’s an interesting question and wonder what most would say. There’s a story behind yours that’s rooted in world history and obviously affected your family. IMO, you’re allowed to keep it without looking sympathetic.
Dial tone still exists. Pretty much every business phone that’s most likely a VoIP line still generates dial tone to the user’s headset.
Ha! Love that and totally gonna steal it even though I’m sure I’ll also forget it as well lol
Been here an almost year and literally just learned that from the above post.
If I am going to interpret your question verbatim, I would feel pretty confident in saying 99.9% of phone calls will traverse a VoIP trunk when they are connected. Does that mean it’s a VoIP call?
You have to remember the Public Switched Telephone Network is a bunch of different phone providers interconnected through all kinds of different protocols. Anytime you’re making a phone call, it’s going to hit a VoIP trunk at some point regardless if you’re calling from one of the few true analog lines left.
And as many pointed out in this thread, even if you have an analog line at your home or office, the chances are pretty high it is just a “handoff” that is probably connected to a VoIP device right on the other side - whether it’s at your site or at the providers central office.
There are still true copper lines and T1s out there but providers really want to get out of that space and are jacking up the rates for these services so high that it is forcing people to move dedicated VoIP service.
Side rant: I just really wish fax machines would go away. They are a challenge sometimes to get them working over a VoIP connection…

I would imagine there would eventually be legislation to not let people cosplay under the age of consent with this new tech.
Now I just wanna watch Primer again.
Have you tried the option on Plex to “burn in subs” always? I have had subtitle issues here and there but setting that option fixed my subtitle issues.
Not a chromecast user though but just wanted to throw that out there.
Fair enough. I would certainly take longer showers if it was just as sanitary… but I wonder if that’s a good or bad thing too. It is interesting interacting with you across fediverse platforms though! I’ve been here for 9 months and that still trips me out.
Fair point. I haven’t had one of those in so long I’ve forgotten.
U wot m8? You want to heat and recycle the water that you already used to clean your filthy body? I think a treatment system should be in play somewhere in this scenario lol
Following.
Came here for this. That’s been happening for quite some time lol
Lmao that’s an awesome story. Damn I might start playing your game.
One my simple joys in life is thrusting one of those bad boys in super hard and yelling “YEAH SMASH EM!!”
I get weird looks sometimes.
This works IMO. Our company used to do this. Hell, I even fell for one once, which is some shameful shit considering I work in the tech industry. That shame enough though has kept me more on toes ever since.
Haven’t seen it but that’s a BOLD statement. I would like someone else’s opinion who has seen both.
