A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

What to expect if you want to proudly display your fascist lifestyle choices on your cellphone screen.

Or perhaps go through airport security faster? Because surely, nothing tells the TSA goons to leave you alone like your confiscated phone showing "Trump 5G" in the status bar.

I would be apoplectic if if took five days for a number port with a constantly changing website and clueless customer service. Not to mention data simply being completely shut off after hitting the "high speed" limit.

Except for being assigned a completely new number instead of porting, with the old carrier having released it. The impacts here on 2FA and having to tell everyone you have a new number when most of your contacts don't answer calls from unknown numbers. Except you can't for days anyway, and who knows what calls and texts you've missed in that time.

I was fully expecting this to be a categorically terrible vanity project, but the grift exceeds expectations.
