Is WiFi calling a decent alternative to VoIP?

Jump

  • I don't know what kinds of packets WiFi calling sends, but I would assume a public IP would be in there somewhere and, at least from a law enforcement perspective I can't imagine it would be too hard to get the address tied to it.

    • Why on gods green earth do people buy gift cards?

    Jump

  • For me, I use gift cards I receive as a test of the person that gave it. Someone I consider a collegue but not friend giving me a gift card to a place I like instantly makes me think they value me more than I thought. Person I consider a friend gives me a gift card instead of a gift, depending on the occasion, makes me think they like me, but can't be bothered to put too much effort in, or are just doing because they feel obligated.

  • I like their first couple albums and they write extremely catchy songs, but their lyrics feel just a little too douchey for my taste. They're a fantastic cover band though.

    • Middle-class buyers are increasingly springing for homes they can barely afford

  • I imagine the answer is that it's still cheaper than renting in those areas.

    • Why do steaming services think they have a captive audience and I'm not going to ditch all of them with the crazy influx of annoying ads?

  • That's where I first saw the Rexenge of the Sith ultimate edition.

    Jump

  • I think that's definitely part of it. I think another part is that they don't do ads right away so people will switch to them, then they add them assuming people will either forget to cancel, or just decide that since they're already there they may as well keep it anyway.

  • I'm a compact sedan kind of guy, but man a truck would be nice during particularly snowy days trying to get where I'm going before it gets too much that the car gets stuck.

  • I've got one progam that I need for work that I cannot get to run on Linux. I've tried WINE on both Ubuntu and Zorin (and winlator for android). I have the installer exe file and try to launch with WINE but then nothing happens. Is that a program problem, WINE limitation, or something else? Is there a different program I should try to launch it?
