I don’t know exactly why. A quick search told me that “because the people wanted that way”. In Brazil, we don’t use the area code for local calls, so, if they created a new area code for the same city (like we have in Montreal, the 514 and the 438), it would cause confusion.

If you like double entendres, you’ll love @lyndsaydotw on Instagram. She reads children books that are not exactly for children. Some are stupidly funny.
Brazil has a stupid numbering system for phones, now. Instead of having three digits area codes and several area codes for highly populated areas, they have two digits area codes and nine digits phone numbers. (But it’s not the case here, here is a scam caller)

No, we Canadians don’t want America, specially the red part. Well, maybe Alaska. That part is OK, they have king crab.

Few years back I went on a cruise in the US. Small ship, so not many kids, average age was pretty high. First thing I noticed at night was the amount of white boomers accompanied by asian women. At least the women didn’t look very young.

argh_another_username@lemmy.cato Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•How did a simple phone call become so problematic?1·4 months agoThis was a teacher that told me in the 90s. “Phone calls are an invasion. When you call someone you’re saying ‘stop everything you’re doing and talk to me’. This was specially true when Caller ID was not a thing.”
Leaving a message equals to a DM or text. The recipient can respond later, but a call, it must be at that moment. It’s synchronous.
Wow, those channels go so inland that I’d take a day only to get to the ocean.
