The problem is, all of these services upsell you on "unlimited" calls for $20/mo, when all you really make is $10/mo in calls. The profit that runs their business is right there.

Yep, just do it. That said, if you want some abstraction, putting FreePBX in between you and Asterisk does give a lot of ease of install, and you can always read the conf files that FreePBX creates when it configures asterisk based on web

Yeah, the T-Series keyboards are even better than the X1 Carbon keyboard, and they are a field-replacable unit, and easy to source and replace if they fail or have issues.

You can tear the top off and recycle that, and discard the greasy bottom. While some pizzas will also soil the top of the box, you sometimes get one that's pristine.

This is a big factor. Also, when traveling as a family, it's really nice to rent a two bedroom AirBNB over a hotel, or even over two adjoining rooms in a hotel (which will nearly always be more expensive than an AirBNB). Having the li

Once the market turns, and the labor pools aren't so tight, you might just see corporations stop allowing so much remote work. If you need to lay off 10% of staff, and 15% of your staff are remote, that's a easy place to start cu

One of the reasons is that batteries are expensive, and can be damaged/degraded. If I have a nice battery that I've treated well, and I swap it at the swap station for a different one, I would be unhappy if I got a totally worn-o

That's a big one for me. It's the largest thing you can probably do to reduce global warming, personally. EVs are also faster to accelerate, and more fun to drive.

The slow trickle charge is indeed slow, but it's not truly a trickle. It runs about 4-5 Miles/Hr. If you largely drove on the weekend, you could fully recharge the car in a 4-day session. (24 * 5 * 4=400 miles). Additionally,
