Comment Currently X-Finity(Verison) and Tello (Score 1) 226

Started out with Ecomobile, went to Ringplus as Ecomobile moved away from Sprint. Ringplus went tits-up and we went to Ting. Ting was way too expensive for what we got. Comcast started X-Finity mobile and I could get 2 brand new phones for $1 each, so canceled 2 of the phones on Ting. Xfinity is unlimited calls and texts, and fist 100mb of data is free, so my bill has been $7 a month for 2 phones most of the time. The other phone got moved to Tello as it was $15/month unlimited calls/texts and 1gb data on Sprint, which is what my wife wanted.

Nice response, and for the most part I use the new one. There are several things I keep ESR around for. Adblock plus that actually keeps statistics about what is blocked, so I can use that information to make firewall rules, and a particular youtube downloader that is all client side.
The blocker for Quantum, Ublock and ABP both don't do stats as far as I know, and I find noscript in ESR easier to wrap my head around.

Death: [reads a list] The boy wants a pair of trousers that he doesn't have to share, a huge meat pie, a sugar mouse, "a lot of toys" and a puppy named Scruff.

Albert: Ah, how sweet. I shall wipe away a tear, 'cause what he's getting, see, is this wooden toy and an apple.

Death: But the letter clearly...

Albert: I know. It's the socio-economic factors. The world would be in a hell of a mess, eh, if everyone got what they asked for.

Death: I gave them what they wanted in the store...

Albert: Yeah, well, what good is a god that gives you everything you want?

Death: You have me there.

Albert: It's the HOPE that's important. It's a big part of belief. I mean to say, you give people jam today and they'll just sit and eat it. But jam tomorrow, now... that'll keep them going for ever.

Death: And you mean that because of this the poor get poor things and the rich get rich things?

Albert: Well, yes. That's the meaning of Hogswatch, isn't it, Master?

Death: But I'm the Hogfather! At the moment, I mean.
