You don’t have to have an authenticator to do dungeons though?
You need one to write a custom description, which is useless for dungeons and somewhat helpful if you are a pug leading a raid.

Yep found no label but can make group.
You outaged wow. If your too old for a cell phone ur too old for wow.
When i get older ill drop this game and go full time fishing. I already fish but not retired fishing. All day in the fresh air, warning out of towners about the monster of rhe lagoon.
“Dont get out at night the monster of the lagoon doesnt like city slickers”
“Only virgins survive out here. The monster of the lagooon eats non virgins. Hence why im here despite being old you see i play world of…”
You geta get my point getting old is great but complaining about needing a cell phone to play a virtual game online on a computer is crazy just like the monster of the lagoon.

Really? When I cancelled my landline in 2010, it was $50/month plus taxes and fees. That was through Verizon in the US. It was the only option for a landline because of monopolies. Anyway, I have never paid more than $50 a month for a cellphone line, including the cost of the phone built into the subscription. Currently pay $35 per line, including a new phone every 30 months.

i felt so weird i never been buying groceries store phones
I was suggesting VOIP as a way to keep their current landline number after dumping the conventional landline for a cellphone.
Replace your stone age phone bill with a cell phone bill.
Look around for yearly plans with small amount of online data. If other countries have yearly plans USA should also. And I just checked AT&T even has yearly plans. Maybe check google to see who has what available before coming here saying that you can’t get cheap mobile services in your country.
This thread has “old man yells at cloud” vibes
Just went thru my junk drawer and found my old Cell, Apple 8 9 or 10 not to sure. Won’t turn on. Mmm should I try to charge or just replace the battery?
Yeah, get a cell phone.
Can you imagine the comments that are going to happen when Neuralink becomes common place???

Couldn’t you just get an old cell phone and just connect it via wireless (w/o the contractual phone/data stuff). I mean, I’ve been using an Apple Ipod Touch for authentication…
I went to cell only about 2 years before that. I had a landscaper move the gate to my chain link fence, and he somehow cut through the phone line to my house. I certainly wasn’t going to pay someone to dig up my yard for way too much money only to go back to paying $75ish a month for a basic phone service. They would even charge a premium for long distance calls during prime time, aka, when we were home from work.
Make all of the long distance calls you want after 9pm weekdays/11pm weekends or some such nonsense. I don’t miss that at all.
Also, I used these when my beard was shorter. Get in a hurry and dial the wrong digit? Start all over again. The 1-800 numbers were the worse.

I don’t yell at them anymore, I just wave my hand and mumble “Bah!” as I shamble in with my newspapers.
Still trying to figure out how I keep missing the Helms Bakery and the Good Humor trucks. What heck happened to the Fuller Brush sales guy? “Bah!”

You did this wrong. Dump the land line, keep the cell. You’ll just run into additional problems in the future, probably.

This thread reminded me of an incredibly annoying experience I had involving a land line when I was a kid.
A friend called me, and we talked for 10-15 minutes. I hung up, and he thought he did too. About 30 minutes later my mom tried to call her friend, but all she got was muffled sounds of people talking in the background at my friend’s house.
I tried yelling “Hello!!!” for a while before mom made me ride my bike over to his house to hang up their phone. Otherwise, our phone was useless. No one could call us, nor us them.

My brother and especially his wife are those people who kinda sorta think wifi and cell phones might cause cancer. His wife won’t allow wifi in the house and he has a cell phone but she doesn’t. I’d say it’s 90% his job that makes him allowed to have one at all.
And I am just like, “so, have you heard of cosmic rays?”
I guess I don’t care because all that healthy living stuff begs the question “well since I got rid of this or that lifestyle thing, now I won’t ever die, right?”
Maybe I’m a pessimist, I dunno. I only stopped smoking cigarettes because of the finances, it was a pure waste of money and a pain in the rear walking outside every 15 minutes. The fact that I might die of it was never really an issue, because I’m gonna get old and I’m gonna die of something.
Already old, so now it’s just a game of chicken. Is it gonna be so quick I can’t even process it, like being diagnosed with late stage incurable cancer with mere weeks or months to go? Or the total utter hell that is dementia? Will I lose my family and feel utterly alone, or will I go first and leave them alone?
Truly it is a strange world we inhabit. Just get a cell phone, you only live once.

I had to decouple my old authentication device the battery was going fast, now I’m wondering if my flip phone will work in it’s place.
