Visual voicemail should be a thing of the past now, my carrier just sends the audio as a standard rcs message, no need for special apps.

Then poor Bob has to fumble to find the mute button and confess he hasn't paid attention to what you have been droning on about for the last 2 minutes and asks you to repeat the question.

Its interesting, I watched a "how its made" type show about a car chase in a movie, it turns out it was all actual real footage and they had a bunch of elaborate moving camera crane setups to get footage from all different angles.

I read the book "Destination disaster" years ago and its pretty chilling how callous the company was to get the plane out the door.

Hawaiian pizza was probably the most popular pizza in Australia in the 80s also. Even though I'm a bit of a pizza snob I still enjoy a Hawaiian pizza occasionally, somehow the combination of trashy shredded processed ham and pineapple

I find inverter microwaves are much better at reheating - you can set it to say 30% power which lets the heat conduct through the food better whereas older microwaves would blast at full power 30% of the time resulting in the usual inconsis

I had to laugh when my previous Samsung TV notified me of an update about 3 years since the last update - I went ahead and installed it, it literally just uninstalled a bunch of apps where I assume the licensing agreement had expired. Thank

From my experience pretty much all failures in modern electronics are due either: * Dried up electrolytic capacitors * Bad solder joints exacerbated by lead free solder. * Failed high current transistors (typically regulation mosf

Last update we had resulted in markdown only being imported if you paste it into the document using shift-insert, ctrl-v didn't work for some reason, can only assume they want to kill it off.

If you dont care about warranty you can pick up cisco voip phones dirt cheap on ebay. A cisco 7940 is rock solid and go for around 10 dollars, the only caveat is you will need a poe switch for 48 volt power and a custom cable as they use no

We are truly the "lucky country" - even a derogatory term has been misunderstood by the general population as a compliment. You can go a long way with incompetent leadership if you can dig stuff out of the ground and sell it.

They are good in certain circumstances, but they use a few tricks, eg. there is no battery meter on the V6 to avoid range anxiety, so it will just die without warning and flash a LED vs having a battery gauge. The suction is also pretty poo
