You’d think a phone shipped straight from the Chinesium factory would already have the latest operating system on it 🙄
The last time I experienced temperatures like this was living in Spokane, WA in the early 2000s. 46F is 8C, -2F is -18C. 🥶
@variablepulserate apparently, K-Y Jelly was originally invented in…New York City [en.wikipedia.org].
@variablepulserate oh I have no doubt at least part of the intention is to irritate me.
Truth is: it impacts her a LOT more than it impacts me at this point since the major assets I agreed to give her in mediation will not be transferred until there is a signed court order.
UPS can't seem to make up it's mind when the iPhone I ordered straight from Apple is actually going to arrive. However, given it's currently in Louisville, KY, I'd say the odds of me receiving it tomorrow are…reasonable.
@variablepulserate not sure about better, but he made things entertaining.

@variablepulserate it has to do with the final order. My lawyer has already written it up and is based on our binding agreement from mediation. I can’t really execute the rest of it until I have said order issued, so…not sure what she’s hoping to gain.
@matigo In the US, you're basically basically dealing with three networks now: Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile. There are also regional carriers in some areas, such as US Cellular out in this part of the world. Every other "carrier" (including the regionals for roaming out of area) buys airtime off one of these three. Dish (the satellite TV guys) is supposed to be building a fourth national network, but it remains to be seen if they can build anything that'd be considered functional or competitive to the other three.
In many respects, it's similar to the telecom situation in Canada, which is the only country that has worse competition (and pricing) than the US.
@matigo fortunately AT&T has a store in-town. If the other carrier (Xfinity Mobile) didn't require a drive to Knoxville for the nearest store, I would have gone there instead of enduring multiple phone calls with people who I have a difficult time understanding due to the language barrier…
