I feel like that should have a lot more pixels visible
I wish phones still had physical buttons. Virtual keyboards SUCK. I could type super fast with just a thumb on my Motorola RAZR; now I have to carefully and precisely touch each letter, and still get the wrong one to appear on screen. :/
And that’s BEFORE the phone’s auto-correct gets to it.
I really wish the Android Blackberry phones did better. However I wasn’t willing to pay a US$300 premium for a keyboard.
I actually kinda like the older-style flip-phones with real buttons better.
You know, you could try TALKING on a phone instead of using it like a telegraph, sending messages one letter at a time.
Full QWERTY BlackBerry keyboards were a luxury compared to typing everything on a flip phone’s dial pad! Sure the keys were each the size of a pin head, but we didn’t care. Compared to my modern smartphone, where I accidentally press B or V instead of Space likebthis, or my tablet that randomly ignres some lettrs, the tactile feedback of a physical keyboard is nice.
The tiny trackball instead of a touchscreen just seems counterintuitive now though, I’ll give you that.
I got soooo much love when I sent this to a young married couple (very good friends of our family) who basically posted this picture on New Years Eve three years ago.
…AND THEN THEY ALL FUCKED
oops, sorry, wrong comic.
…or not…
Ah, the many evils of sugar overdose!
