Maybe Randy isnt somebody you want on your side in a legal battle or frankly anything else.

This is so often true that I would love to read a sociological study on why it is.

I'm signing up with us mobile. They support all 3 major carriers.

Its not even a matter of the esim not registering. The menu itself isn't correct on the Moto. When I hit add esim, before I even try to input anything, its immediately an error screen that says call T Mobile.

I found a very old XDA post that said if I ever unlocked the bootloader on this model phone at any point before the phone was paid off (I did at some point for some reason) it blows a fuse on the phone itself that permanently disables esim functionality. I haven't been able to verify that anywhere else and also seems illegal.

Unfortunately no. I'm no longer a T-Mobile customer. I unlocked my phone after the contract and immediately moved to Verizon with a physical Sim.

Now trying to move to a subcarrier and trying to use an e-sim but it isn't working.

That's the plan so far. In the meantime, I'm back on the trusty old pixel 4a

Who do you like instead?

Thats the old standard.

If you want to, you can get an adapter that will allow you to use the newer lithium batteries on the older tools.

Rock guy is the wildcard fun guy.

Bottle guy is the liability guy.

I had a rule where I wasnt allowed to use a gameshark until I had already beaten the story mode.

So I guess the analogy there would be learn how to do the thing the old fashioned way and then only use AI as a tool to do it better.

Is that Oh-rye-un or oh-ree-yon?
