Two blokes living in the Australian outback saw a couple of jobs advertised by the Queen of England.
She was looking for footmen, to walk beside her carriage.
They applied and were very happy to be flown to London for an interview with Her Majesty.
She says to them: "Because my footmen must wear long white stockings, I must see your ankles to be sure they are not swollen or misshapen."
After they show her their ankles, the Queen says: "It is also important that you don't have knobbly knees, so I need to see your knees too."
Once she has seen their knees, she says: "Now everything appears to be in shape, so I just need to see your testimonials."
Nine years later,....when the pair are finally released from prison, one of the blokes says to the other:...
"I reckon, if we just had a bit more education we would have got that job!"

Does anyone know if you can send an sms from your desktop ? I see there are companies that offer a pay service based on monthly subscription, but that seems a bit OTT for what I need it for. Android / windows kit ?

PS, once upon a time my nokia silver button led screen used to connect through a serial port (too early for usb?) And the nokia software installed on the pc did it.

I use Samsung Dex for business (long) SMS

www.samsung.com

Samsung DeX | Apps & Services | Samsung Australia

Multitask between devices like a boss. With Samsung DeX, your Galaxy transforms into a powerful workstation. And now Wireless DeX makes set-up a breeze.

I'm sure if you're an iPhone hipster type they have the same deal, just plug your phone into your 'puter

Thanks - I have galaxy phone. 🙌

you type from your PC and it is sent from your phone, but same for that software you mentioned, you have to connect to a phone for mass SMSs anyway

its also good for managing files, images, adding images to phone contacts and a million other things that I will never use it for

Cardano has now reached $3.50. Anyone listen to me and buy it when it was around 50 cents?

No I bought Hbar. It's rallied. but still not worth what I paid for it.

Waiting for that Tesla merkin to post about it, so I can covert it to a 1969 Porsche 911T. I'm sure it won't be long now. 😂

Hold onto Hbar. That will go well and assuming you bought $1000 worth I reckon you will at least be able to buy a nice second hand Lada.
