Was gonna put this in my private thread about my SIM card journey, but I feel like this is worth putting on public.
The only way I'm going to accept eSIM as a valid replacement for physical SIM cards is if all carriers let you self-manage it, rather than blocking the phone's ability to transfer your own eSIM data, and if they provide an eSIM adaptor (basically a physical SIM that can accept eSIM provisioning) at a reasonable cost for the devices that don't support eSIM. Oh, and no charging for eSIM activation, 'cause that's bullshit.
As an alternative, it's just fine, but Apple in particular is pushing hard to drop physical SIM cards (previously the iPhones had SIM slots in Canada, but this has ended with the 17 series), and I'm afraid other vendors will follow.
As this happens, it will arm carriers with even more excuses as to why they 'don't need to carry physical SIMs', despite many, many older devices that don't support eSIM being compatible with these networks otherwise.
Oh, and unlike a physical SIM card, eSIM requires you have a working Internet connection to add it or switch between devices.
Assuming the SIM is activated with your carrier, you just pop it into any device with a SIM slot that's compatible with your carrier - no Internet connection needed.

“Displaced from my home in northern Gaza, I sit reading reports of the Iran war as my little sister, 6, struggles to walk across the room. Two months into the ceasefire, an Israeli soldier shot her in the head.
On my phone, a video of US politician Tommy Tuberville criticising the Iranian regime for “treating women like dogs” plays. Another follows, showing Matt Schlapp suggesting the girls killed in a school bombing in Iran are better dead than living a “barbaric life.” To top it all, Israel celebrated International Women's Day in Persian, posting an AI video of fake US, Israeli, and Iranian women frolicking together.
Watching these statements and videos from Gaza, where women have been subjected to relentless violence throughout the two-year genocide, the sudden concern for women’s rights is difficult to take seriously.”

Wenn ich mir so einen Überblick darüber verschaffe was so an Energieinfrastruktur im Mittleren Osten getroffen wurde, sieht es alles nach einer verdammt großen Energiekrise aus die auf uns zurollt. Raffinerien, Ölinfrastruktur getroffen, beträchtliche LNG-Kapazitäten über Jahre weg.
Über den Ticker lief heute dass die US-Regierung die Sanktionen gegen Iran was Öl betrifft zu streichen, weil der Krieg gegen den Iran das Öl so teuer macht.
Das ist do alles nur noch absurd.
Just one trans woman's opinion, but I hold that the ideal way to recover from accidentally misgendering a person and being called out is to simply repeat the sentence, corrected. No apologies (or just a quick "sorry" or "pardon" if it flows), no justifications. It happens. We get it. Nobody's looking to shame anyone, only correct a mistake before it perpetuates.
A: "And then he told me that he wanted to..."
B: "They"
A: "And then they told me that they wanted to meet me at this coffee shop..."
This is what I try to do.
We've got a trans kid, and after 18 years of he, him, we have to change and ITS HARD. Anyone who says it's easy to a parent needs to give us some slack. 18 years of training, daily usage. it's not gonna happen overnight.
We're actively trying though. We are honestly trying. I actually found it easier to go to They/Them first, then start working towards she/her. I can mostly get they right, she is a longer stretch.
I support my trans kid, full stop.
I forgot to post ski & snow pictures yesterday at Breckenridge. It was definitely a spring ski day with temperatures near 60F when I left about 3PM.

FBI agents swarmed the North Hollywood mansion of an accused fraudster who allegedly worked with an identity-theft syndicate led by an illegal Iranian migrant to steal $17 million from wealthy Los Angeles homeowners.
The Post had a front-row seat to the action early Thursday morning, as agents moved in to arrest accused scammer, Amen Vardevaryan, by blasting his stately white home with blinding spotlights.
