  • Test image here.

    For me personally when I want to upload an image I need to press picture icon, then upload. Then from there looking through my images I can't just select the one I want as that will not actually do anything. I have to tap and hold on the desired picture. That then brings up a larger version with an "add" button underneath.

    Tapping add will bring me back to the previous screen and then I need to wait a minute for the image URL to be filled into the box once it has been uploaded. There is no indication it is being uploaded. Sometimes I'll wait for a couple of minutes and nothing will happen so I go through the previous steps again.

    Then once the URL is filled on my reply, previewing the post will often not display the image to me for another up to 5 minutes. There is just blank space and no indication there should be an image loading within the preview.

    I'm not sure if any of this makes any difference to you but I have noticed picture posting is a little funky and some of my experience may help you get more results.

  • Looking at it you would think not but I'm a big guy, so have fairly large hands, and I found it super comfortable to type on. It was designed and made in a way that gave a really positive typing experience whilst minimising incorrect key presses despite having tiny ass keys.

  • Nah BlackBerry Keytwo.

    Great form factor

    Well built

    Great keyboard

    Amazing software that made the use experience smooth and quick with keyboard shortcuts and the like.

    It had a camera if you are into that kind of shit xP

  • Ah I see you are from the UK too. Lots of other countries seem to grasp this concept a lot better. The UK seems unable to walk on the fucking left. If everyone walked on the left then no one has an issue.

    The amount of people stubbornly walking towards me on the right hand side of the path whilst I stick to my guns on the left pisses me right off!

    Bonus points for groups of people that are so far up their own arse they feel the need to walk abreast taking up the entire path. Fuck all of you!

  • My back button always closes the keyboard before performing an action on the screen, is this maybe a setting on your phone that could be changed as my keyboard acts as you suggested within PMs. One tap on back closes the keyboard to reveal the send button, a second will back out of that screen.

  • I'd be excited if this wasn't going to be another exercise in bleeding money out of its player base. Black Desert online is an amazing game and I was disgustingly addicted to it for 6 months or more. Ultimately though when you are trying to upgrade to duo, tri, pen etc and you are wasting days and days on failed attempts whilst having cash shop bullshit pushed in your face the amazing gameplay starts to become not enough to make you stay.

    I still think about going back, I enjoyed it so damn much as a game but the monetisation is disgusting.

  • What flip phone do you use? I do still consiider the titan slim from time to time but I also really like the benefits of graphene os that I am now used to so not sure if I want to go back!

    Your thoughts pretty much mirror mine, I think I could probably pull it off but it would be all new skills to me so I'm not sure how well it would actually come out. Finding someone to do it I thought about too but then the cost is ramping up and conaidering I don't like paying more than £150 on a phone itself to then pay two thirds of that for a keyboard that is going to make an already large phone massive I just can't justify it really.

    There is also the FX tec which I've seen mixed reviews on but I think it is way over priced personally.

  • There is the titan slim which seems to be a clone of the BlackBerry keytwo in terms of shape and size which I did serious consider for quite a while to come after my titan. Ultimately I was put off by some of the quirks that unihertz has in terms of their implementation and software.

    The keyboard on the titan was very good and it was close to the blackberry but it always just fell slightly short with some weird things like how certain buttons were handled.

    I used to love the fact that I could hold the shift key and tap a letter to open whatever app I wanted. Little touches like that I missed, sometimes unihertz tried to replicate those sorts of touches but usually fell just a little short for me.

    I hear plenty of people had slightly better experiences with custom ROMs on it but I tried and tried to get a custom ROM onto mine and I never had any luck with unlocking the boot loader and always therefore fell at the first hurdle.

    There is a project on github that took the blackberry keyboard from one of their best models, placed it in a 3d printed case with an interface to link it to a USB C so you could plug it into different phones that I thought about trying to make and try. But I never got around to trying it.

    Check it out here

    I don't know how well it would work / integrate though, cause what I really want is a blackberry keythree xD

  • I was looking at these just the other day considering it as an option, I miss my Blackberry keytwo so damn much!

    I ran a Unihertz Titan for quite a while after which was decent enough but now it is too out of date and it was always a bit unwieldly.

    I'm now back to typing on a touch screen and hating every fucking minute of it :'(

  • I have been kick boxing for 3 years and I'm about to grade for my blue belt, I'm going to pick up some muay Thai as well soon which is very similar but adding in elbows and more clinching. I also did 3 years of karate reaching second green belt around 10 or so years ago. I stopped karate because I went travelling so couldn't regularly visit the same gym to train.

    I do it for a combination of reasons. It helps keep me fit although I do a lot of other sports / weight training that all play a role in overall cross training. It keeps me flexible which is more and more important as you get older and I like to fight. Coming into training and letting out some aggression on some pads whilst working up a good sweat is a great cathartic release from the stresses of day to day life. I also enjoy the sparring a lot, it helps hone your reflexes and I don't mind at all getting hit to condition yourself for that possibility. I'll hopefully be competing in some inter club / amateur fights soon which I can't wait for. You do also have some peace of mins that should you need to defend yourself in day to day life you are able to do that.

    Karate was a lot more 'Zen' in that the school I trained with didn't do much sparring and was more concentrated on your technique and working through your katas. It builds up your body and technique as well as building up respect for your sensei and the other students you train with. It was a lot of fun and has given me a great basis with technique for moving onto kick boxing but I prefer kick boxing because it is a lot more aggressive. The training sessions are more intense physically and I want to spar and get hit etc, which isn't for everyone.

    Every school will be different, even if they are teaching the same style of martial art, in the way they approach things. The way they teach and way they go about things but you will always find a good supportive group of people who aren't out to hurt you intentionally and are invested in you training well and hard and supporting you.

    I wouldnt worry too much about your hearing, most things will be shouted at you and you can follow people around you if you get lost but I would recommend you give it a try if it is something you are interested in. If you go to a place where people aren't respecting each other, their respective levels and their well being then leave and find yourself a better gym because I know they are out there. If you find a good one you can be part of a great community whilst pursuing fitness as well as a great skill.

    In terms of what you should do, that is down to personal choice. Maybe try a few different ones. Obviously some concentrate on one thing or another like judo is a lot of throwing, muay Thai a lot of striking etc, so try and figure out what you want from it and maybe try some classes to see if you like it! :)

  • I couldn't tell you. The page / list was made for graphene and I don't know the technical differences between running that and lineage + micro g so not sure if the same list could apply. Sorry.
