      I just did. If you get any text messages about your upcoming penis surgery tomorrow, know it’s legit! (Are they removing one, or adding one? Doesn’t matter, I’m sure they’ll figure it out…)

  Yeah, I can’t speak a lick of Spanish although I’m starting to understand it a little. Translation apps are a life saver.

  There is nothing about those that can’t run on KaiOS, which comes with Google maps and runs on most dumb phones on the market today.

    There’s a terminology issue here, feature phones run apps, flip phones and true dumb phones shouldn’t run apps or have any data connections. But it seems more common now to draw the line at Smartphone and anything else is “dumb” even if it’s basically just a 2008 smartphone.

      The line between smartphone and dumbphone has always been very blurry.
