I figure I&#8217;ll eventually switch over to it as a primary device when the 90-day requirement runs out for the promotion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Don&#8217;t worry, there&#8217;s no charge.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was another quiet day at work, which meant I got to tinker with some older projects and things.
