- Comment on I have unlimited cellular data on my phone but not if I use it as a hotspot. 8 months ago:
They had this restriction in the UK where the networks would prevent hotspots from actually working. You had to buy a special additional package.
Restriction has now vanished and there are no such limits on usage. Not sure if the Regulator intervened but it was most certainly a cash grab.
These days they still manage to rip us off by annual contract increases of RPI+3.9%. That applies even during a 2 year contract.

Believe what you want.
Being rich solves many problems, but it’s not a silver bullet for life. Just look at those billionaires chasing wealth and fame.

But was he really happy. Were his friends his friends or were they money friends.
Was he fat with over indulgence. Was he ugly that even plastic surgery couldn’t solve. Was he worried that someone would take his money.
Society teaches us that worldly gains are the absolute be all and end all of life.
Money doesn’t solve life. It helps. But only to a certain extent.
- Comment on I'm not asking to be rich. 1 year ago:
Money deals with one problem but life is full of many problems that money cannot solve.
Family, health, relationships, turmoil, stress, loneliness, time, death etc.
You don’t want to be the richest guy in the cemetery.
- Comment on OK Microsoft... trying to log into Teams while work lapop updates to Windows 11. No longer works in any iPhone browser, including Edge. The app will not authenticate my work login... 1 year ago:
We were told that Teams was the bees knees and it would massively enhance collaboration and productivity due to its fantastic integration.
Well, let me tell you that my disappointment was immeasurable.
It is so slow, so inflexible, so unpolished. I despise it for anything other than a quick chat.

Greed. The ultimate human trait.
- Comment on ‘Climate villain’: scientists say Rupert Murdoch wielded his media empire to sow confusion and doubt 1 year ago:
People too busy pumping music into their heads to have any time to actually silently think.
Critical thinking is such a rare commodity.

No One also don’t crank up prices mid contract. Been massively impressed with them.
