  • Locked phones aren’t really a thing in Canada; they are all unlocked. That doesn’t dictate the eSIM switching process be easy between devices though :/
    Also, wtf is with the “only one or two eSIMs” limit. That physical eSIM card I bought will fit as many fit in storage; something like 8 apparently. I hate arbitrary “no, only X” limits without a justification.

    There is only zero, one, and N (more than can be used because of physical or natural limits) in my mind. :P

  • They are working hard on taking away SIM cards so that you can’t move to another phone without your provider charging you and giving you an okay.

    Yes in theory eSIM cards are better, but the way many providers handle issuing you an eSIM card is a nightmare. Whereas with a physical SIM I can just pull it out and put it in any phone that supports that provider without a problem.

    I went as far as buying one of those physical SIM cards that holds e-sims on it so that I can swap that into a new phone. But newer phones are more frequently not coming with SIM slots at all.

  • No they don’t take regular soap.
    They take a much thinner version of soap so at the very least you would have to take regular soap and experiment to figure out how much to dilute it by and then dilute it before putting it in the foaming dispenser. That’s even more work and potentially messier than just refilling it more often with regular soap.

    Yeah my SO and I go through those little bottles. She washes her hands obsessively but even when it was just me, I basically never want to have to refill it. It doesn’t help that we have four different soap dispensers throughout the house at different sinks and for different purposes so it feels like one of them always needs to be refilled.
