It turns out just about every country in the Americas has birthright citizen ship, but few others do. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jus_soli

HIVE MIND:

Like many of you, I have had my landline rendered useless by a constant assault of telemarketers and phone frauds. (I have a landline because @verizon@twitter.com has lousy coverage at my house.)

Most of these calls hang up when they get the answering machine. I therefore never answer unless someone gets that far. ("Hello? It's <actualperson I know>. Are you there?")

Still, the ringing is annoying. Is there a way to turn OFF the ringer, but leave sound ON so that I might be able to pick in response to legitimate calls?

I'm not above buying a new phone to get this feature. I'd rather not pay a monthly fee for caller ID (which wouldn't solve the problem).

Ideas?

Hey @Twitter@twitter.com remember when I reported the guy who was making threats towards me after my appearance on @FoxNews@twitter.com and you guys sent back a bs response about how you didn’t find it that serious. Well guess what it’s the guy who has been sending to high profile politicians!!!!

I'm clearly not spending enough time with green engineering pads.
