Yeah, I can. A tiny dirty ER crammed to the gills with people and long
waits for BLEEDING clients in a high-tech prosperous area EVER existing
is a good enough representation.

I'll check them again. Last time I hunted around NOBODY was offering
virtual cards. There's a US Bank card that gives 5% back on utilities,
which is a good deal.

We have Charter ($70 for 300Mb) and AT&T (same, but 1Gb). That's all.
No competition at all, which explains it. When AT&T offered Gb service
for the same price we were happy to tell Charter where to stick it. If
rates for AT&T go up at the end of the service year we can get a year of
introductory rates from Charter again. The difference between 300Mb and
1Gb is imperceptible since the driving speed is the pipe at the other end.

Rates are lower for the same company/service where there are a lot of
providers, but Charter wired up the City back when cities had to grant
licenses. AT&T had already wired up pretty much the entire country.
Newer providers would have to run their own wire, the cost of which is
prohibitive now. Accordingly, we're screwed.

Oh yeah, AT&T gave us a $250 sign-up bonus. We probably wouldn't get
that again, but you never can tell.

I'm willing to pay for a PPO high-deductible plan. When you're seen a
lot of turkeys you want to be able to get rid of them at will.
Remember, HMOs make money by NOT treating you.

I remember that -- up through the mid-50s. I had to call the operator
to put the call through. I gave her a phony number so the calls never
showed up on our bill. An operator called one day asking if anyone here
knew anybody at the number I called. I told her no, but it worried me
for a long time. My parents never found out.

And then later there was Cap'n Crunch (my son knew him at Berkeley) and
blue boxes.

that's false. the more treatment you get, the more you pay.

the difference with an hmo is your selection of doctors is limited and
it must be referred from your pcp, based on need.

My folks called person-to-person across country to a fictitious person
to let relatives know we got home OK from a trip to their house. Our
relatives just told the operator the person wasn't home and the message
got through, no charge...

Was Covid causing the problem? My granddaughter and her husband are both
nurses in an ER and things were pretty hectic for awhile. Patients beds
in the halls, etc. Things are now back to normal...

I feel a little bad about the people who ended up paying for our phone
calls. Fortunately they're probably dead now.

Our son did that when he stopped to get gas on his way back to Berkeley.

Well, my WhatsApp messages are frequently over 160 characters, not
918, but still more than the length of a single SMS message. So no
reason SMS messages wouldn't be that long either.

And you can type/display your (SMS, WhatsApp, etc.) messages on a
computer with a real keyboard and large(r) display. (I/we do that for
WhatsApp, can't be bothered for/with SMS.)

So I would say, not very common, but still somewhat common.

It would be nice if WhatsApp became the de facto msessaging platform in
the U.S., as it has in Europe, India, etc., but that's unlikely at this
point.

It was called "signaling" when I was back in the 1960's-1970's. "Signal
when you get there" was something I remember my mother saying.

The Kaiser ER near me is amazing. Spotless and modern. The hospital
opened in 2007. The ER can handle about 100 people at a time in
individual rooms or curtain partitioned areas. It has its own 24/7
pharmacy. There is usually only a short wait to get seen.

While it costs a little more, it's often more convenient to just go to
the Kaiser ER, which also functions as an urgent-care clinic as well as
an ER. Instead of going through the normal procedure of making an
appointment online or over the phone, talking to a nurse, then
scheduling an appointment, where your primary physician will refer you
to a specialist and make you another appointment on another day, a
single $50 co-pay (as opposed to two $20 co-pays)
can get you in and out in 60-90 minutes, versus several days or more.

I was kind of shocked when we went to a Kaiser facility in San Diego, It
was not up to the standards of the Northern California facilities, even
though Kaiser in Southern California is still the highest rated health
plan in terms of quality
<https://healthinsuranceratings.ncqa.org/2019/search/Commercial/CA> and
<https://healthinsuranceratings.ncqa.org/2019/search/Commercial/CA>.
Sharp is also highly rated but it's only for San Diego.

whatsapp is owned by meta/facebook, making that not only a bad idea,
but an impossibility given how many people will refuse to use it on
that basis.

It is nowhere near "the de facto messaging platform" in Europe. You are
once more spreading lies. WA is not allowed for business purposes,
public institutions, schools and (IT-)educated people avoid this evil
and monstrous vehicle at any price.

Hadn't heard that term before. I grew up in the 50s when my folks used
it. If they had a term for it I don't remember it.

When the person-to-person call was made, all were on the line. The
caller, the operator, and the person answering, so all could hear each
other. Once when my mom made the call and the operator asked for the
fictitious person my aunt blurted out "I'm so glad you got home OK". My
mom was so flustered she immediately hung up.

As a young ham operator I made a lot of collect (reverse charge) phone
calls to the families of overseas servicemen, mostly from South Vietnam
at the time, to complete a phone patch stateside.

I also had regular schedules with hams in the cities of some of my
family members and I did likewise for other hams.

To complete the fraud against Ma Bell (you weren't supposed to
connect anything to the phone line) I used a TV set power transfer as an
interface between the line and my transmitter and receiver. The 110V
leads went to the phone line through blocking caps, the high voltage
leads to the mike input, and the filament leads to the speaker out.

Fraud #2 was that I had one end of my dipole antenna tied to a
telephone pole (probably in violation of a lot more than Ma Bell).

The internet and cheap phone service spoiled all that. The best fraud I
do these days is to foil some newspapers subscription popups and read
the articles for free. Just not the same...

If you sign up for MightyText Pro
<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.texty.sms> You can do
what you want. Alas, the Pro version, which is required to do what you
want, costs $89.99/year. The free version lets you read and respond to
SMS using your computer, but not save to e-mail.

The second best option is to port your main mobile number to Google
Voice then you can read your SMS via Wi-Fi (or by using data). It would
likely end up saving you money since you could decide to not forward SMS
to your native number and only read your SMS when you have Wi-Fi
available, thus avoiding the 10¢ per SMS charge on your $10 per year
grandfathered T-Mobile plan. When I had a PagePlus number, I was getting
by balance rapidly decreased by junk texts, in just an hour or so my $10
balance went to zero.

Of course the best option is to abandon that grandfathered T-Mobile plan
and switch to the $0/month free RedPocket-FreedomPop/T-Mobile service
(300 minute, 100 text message, and 100 MB data for $0.00 per month plus
taxes and fees). Of course there is always the danger that that plan
could be discontinued in the future.

Do you have Comcast service where you are? L.A. doesn't look like
there's much Comcast. $71 for gigabit AT&T fiber is expensive and you
probably would never notice 600Mb/s versus 1Gb/s.

Back in January 2022, when I signed up for a new two-year Comcast
promotion it was $20 per month for 600 Mb/s _if_ you signed up for one
line of Xfinity Mobile at $15 per month (1GB of data). Without that $15
per month Xfinity Mobile line, 600 Mb/s was $60 per month (not $70 as I
stated earlier). So it was much cheaper to do $20+$15 than $60. My bill:
<https://i.imgur.com/fi81hxU.png>, it's always 0GB since I don't use
that mobile account. It also included a 5G Motorola phone (not a
flagship but good enough
<https://www.verizon.com/smartphones/motorola-one-5g-uw-ace/>) and a
$100 Visa prepaid card.

Both Red Pocket and FreedomPop can rot in hell. "Forever" means "as
long as we're in business"; if it doesn't, they should say "until we
change our mind".

Just Charter (Spectrum) and AT&T. Both wired up the City when cities
granted permits to only one provider, which made it economical to run
cable. Any new company coming in would have to run its own cable
(digging up a lot of streets since some utilities have been put
underground) which is clearly too expensive -- such that they probably
wouldn't be able to cut prices for a LONG time, if ever.

I'm still upset about Gemco going out of business since I had a
so-called "Life Membership." I'm saving my Gemco membership card in case
they come back <https://i.imgur.com/im4Xoqv.png> and adding it my Google
Wallet.

When Sears finally closes its last store then there goes the warranty on
my Craftsman ratchets. Right now, the nearest Sears to me is nearly 60
miles away, I used to have one about one mile away.

At least you're still getting free car batteries from JC Penney/Firestone.

I have a free lifetime 200MB/month SIM card for each of my iPads, but it's
_Apple_ who unilaterally destroys your expensive investment, not T-Mobile.

I used to go to that one on Wolff also, Valco was the name, I think. The
OSH (aka Silicon Valley Orchard Supply House) off of Saratga and Lawrence
used to also replace Craftsman tools but they went out of business.

> At least you're still getting free car batteries from JC Penney/Firestone.

There is still an orchard in the Silicon Valley near you next to the
Saratoga public library (Is it even still there? My kids used to pick
cherrys at it when they allowed the kids to roam freely)

You iKooks brazenly deny well-known facts even Apple doesn't try to hide.
As has been proven, Apple _requires_ a periodic login to the mothership.

No other platform (other than Windows 11, apparently) requires this, other
than iOS.

I don't know what happens with Windows 11 if you purposefully ignore that
requirement to log into the mothership, but I do know what happens on iOS.

it has not been proven, nor can it be, because it is flat out false.

you have no clue what you're doing and are blaming apple for your own
incompetence.

your apple id has been disabled, likely because of multiple failed
login attempts because you chose to use a disposable email address and
a password you have long since forgotten, something which you bragged
about doing 'for security'.

had you used a valid email, you could have easily reset the password.

tl;dr - you fucked up.

so only windows 11, then.

Every defense you make for Apple is more evidence you own a very low IQ.

You brazenly fabricate excuses for why Apple does what Apple does.
I told you _many_ times that the email/login/password is correct.

If you _L@@K_ at the screenshots I provided, you'll easily see _why_ Apple
disabled the account (which I already told you many times what that is).

/Look!/
.... _look again_ at the screenshots ....
.... *look at the _obvious_ facts nospam* ....

If you didn't have a low IQ, you'd _easily_ see _instantly_ why Apple
disabled the account even when the _correct_ login & password are provided.

Once you figure out why, then you have to ask yourself why Apple cares so
much to track every move you make by your IP address, nospam.

Ask yourself why _that_ is the case.

HINT: I have _plenty_ of iOS devices, each of which do the same thing, as I
was _testing_ what Apple would do if you didn't allow them to track you.

The issue is moot, because - after my repeated suggestions - Bev has
found that her (Google) Messages app *does* have a 'Share' function,
which allows her to share a SMS message to an e-mail address. Of course
that's not an automatic forward, but does what she wants.
