It's because you didn't have a strong father figure isn't it?

Our wings are not tired

I have a 5 drive Drobo that currently has a totally of 9 TB of storage and I'm running two drive redundancy so I can have complete failure of a drive and when it's replace all my data is restored. I think my last drive was a 6 TB mechanism, so when I do the next replacement I'll gain at least a couple of terabytes of space.

Ok, that makes sense. Thanks for the help again!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Question! I have an iPhone 5S that is starting to crap out. I like the size and the phone in general, and I am cheap. Should I just get an iPhone SE and call it a day?

Yes, go for it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That's what I did in the same situation and it's worked out well for me.

Sweet, thank you for the confirmation!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I love my iPhone SE because of the size and because I, too, am cheap.

It's looking more and more that I'm going to get a smartphone so I can access work messages away from my desk, most everything goes out to Slack. I'm thinking a Samsung, but I make very few phone calls and I don't need huge data. What should I look at?

Connie, is work paying for it, or do you have to find a carrier and sign up?

If you're signing up and paying for it yourself, given what you describe your needs as, I recommend a no-contract basic carrier like Cricket Wireless, because their rates are very low.

Yeah, it's not work essential, just work handy--we had an actual fire event today, and the announcement that it was safe to come back in went to Slack--so I'll be paying. I've been on TracFone for years, I should check them, too.
