Help identify disguised tower?

Hey folks, I found this tower in Socal that's tagged as T-Mobile on the map, but walking around it, doesn't seem to broadcast T-Mobile or AT&T LTE as seen by my Pixel 4a.

Location: 33.6912733, -117.9781491

Currently tagged as eNBs 191435 and 96964 on CellMapper.

I'm wondering if this might be a Verizon or Dish setup? Or perhaps legacy of some sort? Any ideas?

Here's a photo of the base as well.

Edit: here's an album with more photos: https://imgur.com/gallery/ocEoS9O

Also, I looked at my CellMapper CSV history, and I saw this tower last year (2022) at this time (on vacation here) but this year (2023) I am walking all over the area and not seeing it. To me this suggests that perhaps it's gone to Dish.

AT&T Wireless Taxes and Fees, San Mateo County, CA 2023 July

Hey folks, I've been trying out AT&T Postpaid. Prior to joining, it was a real paid to estimate what the taxes and fees would be. Well, now that I have that information from my bill, I'm sharing it out.

This sheet shows the monthly charges (2 lines on Starter + 1 on Extra, all with 25% discount from having AT&T Fiber). It also shows the fees breakdown and does a line by line comparison with what AT&T public docs say the fees could be.

Happy to answer any questions.

can reps check if numbers qualify for third line free?

Hey folks, I'm guiding some extended family on switching to T-Mobile from Consumer Cellular (AT&T Sims). They were switching sims with T-Mobile ones from Consumer Cellular, since CC used to support T-Mobile and AT&T.

Anyway, given that switching, I'm worried they may not qualify for the third line free. Is this something that can be verified before they switch?

How to oil these door hinges?

Full photos for reference: https://imgur.com/a/sEEZez7 (the post photo is here because Wefwef said I need to attach a photo)

Previously I've lubricated plenty of door hinges by popping out the pin, putting a bit of petroleum jelly, and hammering out back in. This door goes to our garage, tho, and it seems to have different looking hinges.

I'm curious what's the best course of action. Is there a pin that can be easily removed like most interior doors, or do I need to do something different?

Thanks in advance to this new community!

Dumb, cheap phone for kid?

Hey folks, my wife and I use Pixel phones, but we're starting to think about a phone for our kid, really just to be able to call 911, probably wouldn't even get data. We're looking for cheap and boring, the fewer features, the better. Also open to smart watches, tho we have no experience with them.

Are there any devices that fit the bill? I'm thinking something like an old Nokia brick from 20 years ago, but of course with VoLTE/VoNR.

Thanks for any help this community can provide!

Everything can be salad dressing

I know there are some classics like oil and vinegar, but when it comes down to it, actually a lot of foods can work as salad dressing.

One simple dressing I make is a lazy peanut sauce: peanut butter, some sweet chili sauce, and a bit of hot water. Toss a few peanuts onto your leaves and it's pretty solid.

But I've gone a lot further. If you have leftover soup or chili, that usually works pretty well. But you can also use pretty much any curry or really any stir fry. If there are big chunks, like a strip of seitan, you can either live with it, or spread it on a cutting board and chop chop chop before you toss it with the leaves.

As for the leaves, my preference is something sturdy like finely shredded green cabbage or romaine.

I know this post is a bit odd, not being a recipe. I just wanted to share that when it comes to salad, it's easy to be creative if you get out of the traditional salad mindset.
