Tangentially related, and equally juvenile, I own the telephone number in Australia: 08 80087355

Still gives me a chuckle. Grow up.




I just called, why didn't you pick up?


Voicemail not enabled and no SIP client logger in.

Should have connected for a few giggles this arvo.


RIP your voicemail


It's 2022: RIP the concept of voicemail


You think the concept of people leaving audio messages to one another is dead? That seems like something that will never die out.


The concept of people leaving audio messages _with a reasonable expectation that someone will listen to them_ is (thankfully) dying out, at least among my social circles.

You can leave a message if you want, I'm not going to listen to it. The only entities that make unexpected phone calls are scammers and bots.


I get spam calls but I never get spam voice mails. As such I never pick up unexpected calls but I do listen to messages.

Might be a regional thing?


Given that I never get ham voice calls, it is reasonable for me to assume that any voice mails that I receive are therefore spam (but, no, you're right, I don't recall ever noticing a spam voice mail. But then I wouldn't notice one, whether it existed or not, because I don't check them)


> I never get spam voice mails

You must not be in the United States then. Pretty much guaranteed every phone number in the US has received at least one “automobile extended warranty” voicemail.


in my circle its common to email mp3 attachments


OB(viously) BOOBLESS?

My inner child chuckled to see 55378008 displayed on a calculator near the end of that movie.
