Your Verizon number can be also using IP-based services for MMS. But where you set that up is usually specific to your carrier OS, etc. For me, for example, I have an option in the app that goes with my carrier, which is Mint, because I'm a cheapo.

I'm not sure about graphene,( although I'm about to install that on this phone) but most Android distributions also have a Wi-Fi calling setting, which can also imolicitly work with texts.

Based on the info you've given, I would put a little money on it being somewhere in there.
And I appreciate the Zap consideration and I'm surprised it didn't work. I think I have a wallet of Satoshi address set up. Huh, I wonder what's wrong. But you don't need to zap me. 😁

Yes, I answered your earlier question with some ideas, but you confirm here that you are enabling Wi-Fi, and messages can go over Wi-Fi under the right circumstances. There's more than one way that could happen.

So there are possibilities here.
First of all, if you are correct that you have received and sent messages while in airplane mode, then you have to have another network connection somewhere and the most likely (only one likely) would be Wi-Fi, which can be turned on in airplane mode.
You say that you sent and received SMS, which is a specific protocol. That should be impossible. But if you mean that more generically and that you sent a text message and received a text message, there are other protocols that can use Wi-Fi. Like RCS.
And it is possible that you are using a VoIP like layer for your texting if that is enabled by your phone and carrier, etc. SMS over IP gateways can be used, but you would certainly know if you would set something like that up.
So chances are, you are using a messaging app that will fall back to IP texting one way or another, or you're using a protocol that does that natively like RCS.

Monero has the same problem, but achieved a slightly different way. And it is thanks to its best-in-class privacy. It was easy for exchanges to be deeply short Monero and close down withdrawals for "technical reasons". Remember that?
Monero has, from the very beginning, kept away from the digital gold type narrative. Spend Monero, don't buy it.

I'm getting to the point where if a specific app asks me to enable notifications more than once I'm just deleting it.

And absolutely excellent summation of the BIP 110 situation, in my opinion.

I don't know. That last one would rig some kind of explosive inside of the new carvings and blow the whole thing to smithereens eventually, probably. But I don't know, maybe that's a good idea anyway.

I hope someday I can visit China, but in some ways it seems it could be restrictive.

Hmm. I usually use amethyst on my phone but was using Primal on my computer. I wonder if that is blocked.

The implementation is perfect! Keeps it non HTML, but gives you the ability to render. This is super nice to be able to dig out a MFA code or the like. Sending a small zap!

Sounds like his nsec was compromised. Assuming coinos was a wild guess how. (Doubt that's how)

You know how bars of soap eventually turn into little waxy rocks, and you try forever to squeeze out the last little bit of actual soapiness and perhaps coax them into something useful by attempting to combine 3 or 4?
Well the soap @nprofile…f08g sells does not have this "feature"
Currently using Clove. It is lovely.

Saying "the Bitcoin community is filled with absolute shitheads". Is something that many long standing members of that community who are NOT shitheads feel sums up much of core's attitude towards the users.
The only difference between what you dislike Gloria having to face vs what you just said about the users is you know her. But you don't know me. Or the other millions of users that contribute to the community you say is full of shitheads.

Aye. But a salty sea dog from a Japanese anime cartoon from the 80s. https://files.sovbit.host/media/05972259ec683e9843ce12fae6cedda06e65062cfb014799e2abd52b2932bae6/b7ff0622b7426826faf57289c7e4b56ea039910fdecb62f0c9a492b49c759201.webp

There is actually quite a bit of great audio software on Linux.
Reaper is, in my opinion, a top-end DAW.
And you may curl your lip at this, having seen you mention Ableton 😁, but Bitwig has a native implementation. (i'm a bitwig fan, but I'm sure if I had been using Ableton for years it would be a very hard switch even as similar as they are.)
But the devil is in the smaller details for this one, and I think you mentioned your Apollo. Let me know if you want to sell it. I think you have access, therefore, to some of the best DSP available and also fabulous preamps and converters. And I know Linux is Linux, but Thunderbolt is a really weird move at this point I don't know why UAD did that. But then again, again, I personally would think I could get Thunderbolt working with Linux, but I've never tried.
But it's the little stuff, the software instruments, the hardware compatibility, the plugins.
And, I have occasionally given it a shot because I am a curmudgeon who believes one should be able to make great sounding stuff without every single whizbang tool and indeed you can, but you can also build a house with a rock and wooden nails.
Finally, Linux's audio subsystems are some of the most convoluted software ever created by human beings. Alsa/pipewire can be configured to do just about anything and do it well that that configuration may kill you in the process.
I do praise pipewire. It did take Linux audio from being something designed just for tan colored computers to something that could do anything I wanted it to do, but it's just so damn complicated.

I've been running Linux since the 90s on any machine that I use that I'm not doing audio on. All my laptops.
You'll get there. It's bumpy, but it's solid as hell. Eventually you'll wonder why you didn't try it earlier.
I started with Slackware and ended up on Arch. (did LFS and Jin2 along the way? I guess I'm a glutton for punishment.) EndeavourOS is solid. If you stick with Pop, I hope you work it out. I hear good things about that one.

When I walk on my dog in the alley, I allow myself not to pick up his poop and put it in the little plastic bag like the city ordinance states I must, because it's in the alley. That's my moral greyness on display.
