Several decades of phone technology as it developed…
Edit: and why are you just down voting everyone replying providing you with info?

While I get your opinion, these things have definitions. Here’s a super simple version:
So yes, this is a feature phone from what I’ve read of the translation.
Honestly don’t remember the names, its been… Quite a while. I’ll have to open and check.
Iirc it was also some I stored as gifts that became unknown or something, and I wasn’t able to send them.
The bigger issue to me are games that were removed from steam and I can no longer get.
Which is why I don’t bother buying on steam anymore. If I’m buying, its DRM-free only.
Part of why I’m collecting up whatever ones I find to use for my small electronics projects… Even saw someone recently use about 50 or so to make a nice battery bank (was posted here to Lemmy)
I’ve been using them as the overnight batteries for solar powered projects (like wled controlled lights). I’ll be happy to get batteries elsewhere instead and reduce the massive waste.
Yup, xmpp is the way to be still IMO.
Yes but it wasn’t marketed that way. Which is why there is more interest.
Apple has been blatantly obvious that they want it to remain proprietary and exclusively on their hardware.
Because imessage is proprietary and apple is against it being publicly available and a standard.
I played games on channel 3.
I installed dos on an IBM model 30 286 with a stack of 3.5" floppies.
The apple 2e’s in school were great for playing games.
The Mets had a good years playing baseball when I was little.
While I agree with regards to school shootings, this has a lot of other value as well, such as medical emergencies. I think its great to have a system like this available, I just wish the reasoning behind it was more for those medical emergencies and less because school shootings are all too common…
I’m glad it helped in Georgia. I hope its never needed for the same reason ever again - though with the idiots out there that think guns are more important than kids, its likely my hopes will be dashed soon.
as long as you are mentally sound and store your guns safely
Yeah, that’s a pretty substantial improvement to what we have in the US.
Perfect shouldn’t be the enemy of good.
It will take a lot longer to get proper gun control in place in the US. We’ve already got the GOP and their “Well it sucks, but too bad, move on” rhetoric going.
There is no reason not to minimize risk during the time it will take, even to get to where we we were 20 years ago.
Juuuust about ideal, definitely.
Looks like this is what they have - https://www.centegix.com/crisisalert/
I’m all for gun control. As in, significant reforms, nationwide reforms. Real background checks. Limits on the types of guns. Insurance requirements. Safety training requirements. The list can keep on going…
That said, I’d still want an emergency alert system in schools. There are other threats and other situations where it could be needed, there is nothing wrong with having both.
I can tell you its done in the tristate area.
Maybe its a Georgia thing.
If it doesn’t cover the expected area of concern? No
If you dont know the cause of the issue? No
If you know the issue, and just need to check the state of the esophagus or something? Sure.
Its done for specific reasons, just like an endoscopy is done for specific reasons. When it comes down to it though, it only does a small part of what an endoscopy can do, and with a generic “acid reflux”, its not going to give enough information to diagnose. Its a way to assess symptoms, not a way to diagnose a gastrointestinal problem.
My doctors have been incredible, at least those I’ve had for the past 4 years or so. Including my gastro.
They take the time to talk to me, they remember who I am, and my gastro is even a direct recommendation from my primary doctor (my gastro is his gastro).
I’ve been going to gastroenterologists for literally decades, the one I got a couple years ago is the first to finally find the issue, and I’ve been reflux free. I doubt he’d do a transnasal either - its more limited in scope (hah!), you’re only getting part of what an endoscopy can do. That’s why its not transnasal endoscopy, its transnasal esophagoscopy.
And that’s probably why. Why they wouldn’t just say that, I don’t know. There are lots of places that will do transnasal esophagoscopy throughout the US, so it isn’t a procedure that is just “not done here” or anything, its not as popular in general because its just not as thorough of a procedure.
I hope you find a doctor in the future that takes the time to explain things though.
Edit: Forgot to mention, the hospital system by me is a non profit. Only differentiator I am aware of, and its a great hospital system.
The latest shows as 4 dead, over 30 injured (as of about 5 minutes ago).
Terrifying, depressing, and entirely preventable. I truly despise those who think guns are more important than kids.
No, the phone industry made up these terms.
So how I read that is “Anything that isn’t what I want it to say is disinformation”.
Well, enjoy your day buddy, my participation in this thread is over. Its a neat feature phone, and that’s where I’ll be leaving that.
