From my feedback after Sunday's chat session with Sprint customer care:

I apparently cannot activate a non-Sprint handset, which I think is a bad idea and a sign that the US phone system is worse than that of developing nations and altogether an ideological crock; tomorrow I will find out whether my very expensive smartphone is in fact bricked and proceed from there.

I will not be calling customer care because right now I don't have a goddamn phone. Well, technically I have a prepaid phone that I just now bought, but I'm saving those minutes for emergencies. You can improve by changing US cellphone stuff such that SIM cards are easily swappable regardless of hardware's original network.

• Monday, 0018: @whump That was the best line of the article, and also, apparently this is worth a footnote in the news.
• Monday, 0021: @klreeher Sulu is the best. Though I still wanted to be Uhura when I grew up.
• Monday, 0055: @summertea There's a girl I know, I loathe her so; she boasts of her large-hitcount fic WHICH IS TERRIBLE and also has a low kudos rate.
