Mr. Nuke as you can tell we really have a hard time staying on topic! And basically this place has no rules other than we try to be respectful.
Glad you showed up!
Lots of good Folks here from the U.S. And Canada. We make good friends here from all over and travel and do a little hunting and fishing together from time to time.
Just jump in anytime but realize most the dufes are crazy.

I have no idea what that means, but welcome! Cappy is fine folks. DO NOT TELL him that I said so. He has a big head at times.
My fun job is doing nothing. And I never start that before 10:00 a.m.!

He put fuel in Kevin's #4 car during the race Bucky.... Go back to sleep and watch that boring Base-a-ball.

Welcome Nuke, love the diversity that you bring to this board . Sounds like a cool job.....
What happened to Kevin's first 3 cars?
And I was awake, but I started thinking of circles, and circles, endless circles, and I fell asleep!

Nuke ... if you REALLY need to know anything about the site or anyone here, just ask me. You won't get a straight answer form anyone else ... trust me on that one. ESPECIALLY that Captain dude ... he's pretty much clueless. (I think it might be that "cherry juice" he drinks from time to time)

Soo, That one ^^^^^ knows this one vvvvvv....
And I let him in.... Sorry folks, Im a lousy admin....
Just Kidding, welcome MrNuke.
Well, not quite accurate but close bucky.... To keep it simple, SMS(text) and Voice (legacy, not VoLTE or Ipuss) runs in the same network, the difference is that SMS is a digital service over analog so, your text will need a second of GSM signal to transfer it contents to your provider and vice versa. In other words, you type your text, hit send, there is no signal so phones puts the message in standby, faint signal comes, phones do handshake, send a bunch of bits in half a second, you loose signal 2 seconds later but you never noticed all of that happening. Signals, Specially low signals as GSM can bounce off stuff as tree leaves and even airplanes. Once we go to VoLTE and the GSM/GPRS networks are turned off this wont happen much and when you are out, YOU ARE OUT of signal....
Wife is addicted to it, I am on the other spectrum, I like it but to me is not worth the money... However, since she pays for it I have their app to listen to Rumbon ch 767 when I get nostalgic. I have a vast Caribbean music library but I don't nearly have it all...
Wife listen more of the time to the 80's, 90's, The highway (she is a converted Yankee) Y2Kountry and some metalica like station... I do comedy central most of the times or the 80's on 8.
Heh heh heh heh...he said I Puss.

no, I say Ipuss, get of the bong man!!!!! lol!
No, not only AT&T, actually, almost 99% of Europe uses GSM and the rest uses CDMA(verizon, sprint, etc). However, while the innerwork of the 2 are different the result (as far as text and voice) is the same, one 3 seconds of signal will be more than enough to transmit the packets. the main difference is with cdma you cant browse the net while you talk and GSM allows you too. However, that is not a point of contention here.
Europe? Like yeah, but who cares????
Back to the original statement.............text doesn't use the same bandwidth as voice, and takes less of it, so it sometimes works when voice doesn't.
WARNING - Due to the rising costs of ammunition, warning shots will no longer be given.
And technically.........there's really only TDMA and CDMA.
GSM is just a type of TDMA.
WARNING - Due to the rising costs of ammunition, warning shots will no longer be given.
They don't. They use OnStar, which uses Verizon in your area apparently. OnStar made that decision, not GMC.
WARNING - Due to the rising costs of ammunition, warning shots will no longer be given.
GSM is a type of TDMA, you are correct, not sure how that matters.
Read your own statement:
What both of these do is have multiple services in the same radio bandwidth. The difference is how they do it, but it is still the same radio frequency. Yes, sms does not use the same amount of frames as voice but that is not what you said but probably what you meant.
CDMA was developed in Europe, TDMA in North America, yet most europe uses TDMA.... I let you draw your conclusion.
Again, as I explained before, voice and sms works in the same CDMA or TDMA radio signal. The difference is sms takes lot less time to send a 10 lines text with 500 words total than what it takes for a person to:
notice their phone has signal.
dial the number.
the other person pick up the phone.
you say your 500 words.
Finish the call...
All of the above without interruption due to spotty signal....
y'all need to call each other and work this out.
or get a room.

Why? you jealous im taking buckys "bkb" attention away?
He could text me about it.
But I'd probably read it too fast.

Can you imagine how boring those two would be at a party?

And Bucky says he don't read NASCAR threads. He's posted more on this one than anyone.

This was a NASCAR thread??
Oh yeah! I had to go back a few pages ... I'd forgotten!
"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness" - Mark Twain
It was?
I do NOT hate Nascar for you guys. Let me rephrase. I do not hate that you guys like Nascar. I don't belittle your love of it, nor interject smarmy little remarks about your comments on it. I am happy that you have something on TV to watch that you like. I'm not against Nascar, or wish it would go away. I simply do not see the attraction. So I quietly don't watch it.
I do enjoy discussing a lot of different things, and try NOT to be so Chauvinistic towards only the things I like, and I don't belittle the hobbies and likes of others. Chatting on an internet chat site is like going to a Restaurant. My wife always says "I don't care" when I ask her where she wants to go. But she DOES care! It's ME that doesn't care. There is not a restaurant in America that I can't go into and find something on the menu I'll eat. NOT HER! She has many places that she can't eat there at all. Yet she won't pick. Me, I can find something to eat everywhere. I like a lot of things! Just like chatting.......I can talk politics, or baseball, or football, or fishing, or hunting, or travel, or guns, or houses, or cars, or technology, or TV shows, or anything. But on Nascar, I just don't have anything to say because I have zero knowledge.
(All that was for Mr. Nuke, by the way!!! haha)
