hanrahan comments on Came across a “No network from this point on-please contact your loved ones to avoid worry”-sign when driving to Spiti valley, India. In fact there was no connection for the next 10 hours of driving.

10hrs you say ? I go many weeks between messaging family or friends, is it common to message/talk to people all the time?

You may not actively reach out to your folks, but some of your folks may think you're dead if it takes more than 8 hours to reply.

Once upon a time my mom sent my sister to check on me because I didn't answer my dorm phone. I was in class. Smh

I feel like you but am related to people who think 10 hours means you're dead. It can get annoying.
