I use a shitload of texts and ting jus twasn't a good fit for me 10:27 < Synx_hm> i text non stop but thats more because i use GV with sprint so i text from my computer all day 10:28 <@Evilpig> same. which you can only do that with Fi nowdays. :-/ 10:28 < Synx_hm> Evilpig, did you port a GV number to Fi by chance? 10:29 < dasunt> shapr: Ting is pretty good, but I think there's better deals for MVNOs (and I say this as a Ting user) 10:29 <@Evilpig> no. I had GV and it appears that my sprint number replaced my GV number when I signed up 10:33 < dasunt> I think Republic has some good rates. 10:35 < dasunt> Ting is running me around $35/mo, which I think I could do better on if I tried. 10:37 < dasunt> Googling, Tello has some pretty low rates. I wonder how good it is. 10:40 < dasunt> Unlimited minutes & text, and 2GB for $19/mo. 1GB for 14/mo 10:40 < dasunt> (Unlimited data at 2G after that). 10:40 < Synx_hm> awe bummer Project Fi doesn't do the spam filtering that Google Voice did 10:41 < Synx_hm> that was a life saver almost never get spam calls 10:41 <@Evilpig> it sorta does 10:41 < dasunt> Also, Tello is using Sprint's network.

If it costs (say) $0.25/burger for a piece of food safety equipment, then can't I apply that $0.25 towards the cost of that equipment? 14:53 <@Corydon76> You can, yes. 14:54 <@Corydon76> You have to be able to justify those costs, though, is what I'm saying. 14:54 < dasunt> Hmmmm. Seems like quite the loophole for advertising. 14:55 <@Corydon76> If you're charging the customer $2, but only $0.10 is going towards the costs, then you might expect a nice fine from the FTC for being deceptive. 15:00 < dasunt> Hmmm. 15:00 < dasunt> Well this is odd - looking at one part of this MVNO, they list the fees they charge, but the front page of the website says no fees. 15:01 <@Evilpig> ummmmmmmmmm no true 15:01 <@Evilpig> the price of a 20oz coke at the gas station ~$2 15:01 <@Evilpig> guaranteed there is less than $0.10 in cost there 15:03 <@Corydon76> For the drink, yes. I think there's a bit more in the cost of the cup. 15:21 < dasunt> So what are the pros and cons of porting your number over to google voice? 15:23 <@Evilpig> pro: gaining access to your number via any connected device, browser, etc 15:23 < dasunt> Which seems like a pretty big pro, TBH. 15:23 <@Evilpig> cons: giving google explicit access to everything. 15:23 < dasunt> Is google just doing metadata, or actually listening into calls? 15:24 <@Evilpig> but if you believe that they aren't monitoring you anyway... 15:24 <@Evilpig> they could be doing anything 15:24 <@Evilpig> clearly they have access to the voice call at least voice mails since they will transcribe them 15:24 < dasunt> *shrug* What if I believe that the phone company is just as quick as google to roll over to the feds? 15:25 <@Evilpig> it's a meh issue to me. if they want to listen to my phone calls, sucks to be them 15:25 < dasunt> I'm a little mehish myself since I can't guarantee my phone company isn't doing the same. 15:26 <@Evilpig> I personally was happy to have my texts and calls all in one accessible place 15:26 <@Evilpig> you could also say that if someone got access to your account then they could truly impersonate you and accept reset codes etc 15:26 <@Evilpig> it puts alot of access in a single security basket 15:26 < dasunt> True. 15:27 < dasunt> Although my phone company is probably happy to port my number over with minimal assurances. Especially if you try a few helpdesk monkeys. 15:27 <@Evilpig> to combat that google has added in lots of notices about extra access to your account, etc 15:28 <@Dagmar> dasunt: The cons are "Sprint is abandoning that because they're insane" 15:28 <@Evilpig> sprint is getting booted out of it 15:28 <@Dagmar> dasunt: Also, "When you get a phone call, your everything will ring." 15:28 <@Dagmar> dasunt: ...because the thing will ring through Hangouts and every Android device you have 15:29 <@Dagmar> However, if you have a headset it means you don't even have to reach for your phone, and the Google Voice automatic transcription is nice 15:29 <@Evilpig> I enjoy that aspect of it. drives ashley nuts when I'm not home but the computer and tablet ring 15:29 <@Dagmar> hehehe 15:29 <@Dagmar> At one point in my place it was like someone said the Secret Word Of The Day or something 15:29 <@Dagmar> I had an Android device on the TV, it rang, my tablet would ring, my laptop would ring, my phone would ring, my desktop would ring 15:30 <@Dagmar> Nadia's reaction to that was priceless. 15:30 <@Dagmar> THe house goes berzerk and she just looks at me and says, "Really, Dag? Really?" 15:30 <@Evilpig> my shield's don't ring, but that would be funny if they did 15:31 <@Evilpig> I figure eventually the google home probably will 15:32 <@Dagmar> If they could do Hangouts they'd probably ring 15:32 <@Evilpig> my car does hangouts now! 15:32 <@Dagmar> Cool 15:32 <@Evilpig> I hadn't ever plugged in the usb cable before. did that this weekend and it does hangouts via the text to voice 15:33 <@Evilpig> and it can reply, where regular google assistant doesn't 15:33 <@Dagmar> Ah, Android Autio then 15:33 <@Evilpig> yeah 15:33 <@Dagmar> Yeah, Google Assistant is still kind of a shitshow with Hangouts 15:33 <@Evilpig> I wish they would make that shit work via bluetooth, then it'd be tits 15:33 <@Dagmar> Like, if you have an active Hangouts _up_ on the device, then GA will *likely* route any "messages" you try and send through that 15:33 <@Evilpig> I hate thinking that I need to tether my phone to make that shit work 15:45 < dasunt> One of these days I have to drive a car more than 15 years old. 15:47 -!- rhia [~rhia@wtcdsl-66-165-15-89.whidbeyteldsl.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds] 15:48 -!- rhia [~rhia@wtcdsl-66-165-15-89.whidbeyteldsl.net] has joined #se2600 15:48 -!- mode/#se2600 [+o rhia] by ChanServ 15:51 <@Mirage> Evilpig used to forget to remove the NOC from GV, so he'd be off shift and we'd beat him answering whoever was trying to call him.
