Let the 5G lawsuits begin! Sprint is suing AT&T for 5GE mis-branding!

W00ties! From the article: "Sprint said that a survey showed 54 percent of AT&T’s consumers believed their “5G E” network is the same as or better than a 5G network and 43 percent said if they buy an AT&T phone today, it would be capable of running on 5G." and "...Sprint said it plans to release 5G smartphones with Samsung Electronics Co Ltd in the United States during the summer, while rival Verizon Communications Inc in December also disclosed similar plans for the first half of 2019."

This is part of the problem - there ARE NO 5G PHONES RIGHT NOW. Yes, 4G can be upgraded and you'll get better performance, but calling it 5G or 5GE is pure fluff.

Of course the Federal Trade Commission and the Federal Communications Commission have been utterly silent on the issue.

Break out the popcorn (with lots of butter, at least for me), this should be entertaining!

Mail-order Chocolate....

I learned of these people from an old Alton Brown podcast, Olive & Sinclair. They're based in Nashville, TN, and offer tours if you're in or will be in the area. Two flavors caught my attention: sea salt and vinegar caramels and white chocolate made with buttermilk. I'm very intrigued by both.

I just ordered a collection of one of all of their chocolate bars for $60 (plus shipping), no idea if it'll get here before V-Day. Aside from the sea salt & vinegar caramel, they also do a duck fat caramel which sounds rather good. So depending on how these chocolates work out, I expect I may be ordering some caramels for our anniversary in June....
