Quoth Crossbow View PostIf you're not prepared to spend a few days without your phone, KEEP A SPARE ON HAND!
This isn't a hard concept to understand. Hell, I don't need my phone 24/7 (despite what Mrs. Crossbow says...) and even I still have my last smartphone and can reactivate it if I need to.
Of course, if you suggested that, the response would probably be "But that one is so OLD!"
Guess it sucks to be her.
I wish they would make the old Nokia immortal phones that would work on the red checkmark system. I did have one as a burn phone before the house fire [burn phone snork snork] and they were wonderfully hardy.EVE Online: 99% of the time you sit around waiting for something to happen, but that 1% of action is what hooks people like crack, you don't get interviewed by the BBC for a WoW raid.

Am I some weird outlier? I've never had a phone die, I've just upgraded when bored. All but one of my former phones are still serviceable, and the one that isn't has a fault that was once covered under warranty but it didn't cause enough of a problem for me to worry about.
I must be Cellphone Georg.This was one of those times where my mouth says "have a nice day" but my brain says "go step on a Lego". - RegisterAce

Quoth Jetfire View PostBut to keep my Ingress streak alive ...“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged.
One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world.
The other, of course, involves orcs." -- John Rogers

Quoth Pixelated View PostI'm just a bit confuzzled ... was the SC here a man or woman (not that it matters ...)? Or am I misreading something?
Sorry ... that's my inner editor ..."If we refund your money, give you a free replacement and shoot the manager, then will you be happy?" - sign seen in a restaurant

Quoth AccountingDrone View PostOddly, I also have a waterproof pouch for it [got it so I could take my phone with me on the boat for parasailing without having to worry about accidentally dropping it in the water. The phone in the pouch floats =
Funny enough, I used a Ziplock down the line and found it did the job pretty well at the beach!

Quoth dalesys View PostIf Deathstar hadn't delayed shipping my cell phone I could have seen Big Brother & the Holding Company for FREE!
... 1968 ... Janis Joplin ... Lagoon Opera House
I wasn't even born at that time.
What the ever loving flock did people do before they had cell phones? Tin can and string?
Oh yeah, we had pagers that were around 20 or 30 per month just to have the service. I think I recall half my coworkers walking around with those cool (at the time) Motorola pagers that came in several colors (I think I had asked Mom to find one in the cool transparent green that would go with my favorite trench coat but I ended up with a black one, but I digress.)
Tell Miss Princess to go get a pager. I think they're still around now.Human Resources - the adult version of "I'm telling Mom." - Agent Anthony "Tony" DiNozzo (NCIS)

Quoth Jetfire View PostSmurf with an almost 800 day hacking streak going.

Quoth Nunavut Pants View PostAwesome! I get sick after about 100 days and lose my streak. Luckily I don't need that for my two Onyx medals to get L16. Just need ~10M worth of AP.

I'm currently L14 with more than enough badges; I just need 3M AP to hit 15, and then the push onward to 16 for the 'win'.
