Hey, #Canada, wouldn't it be an awesome time to #BringBackBlackBerry, and stop using the ego-phone?
@tsumidesho znaczy ten, dla mnie 1000 to zawsze była cena zaporowa. Na #BlackBerry może 2x tyle :) przez ostatnie lata obstawialiśmy się głównie iphonami SE
I miss #BlackBerry. And #Nokia.
Respondiendo a un par de mensajes sobre móviles... Mientras vuelve BlackBerry* (ja ja), este es el mío. Los teclados físicos no son solo mejores para escribir y más bonitos, también abren las aplicaciones (la M para Mastodon, of course), navegan, copian y pegan...
(El lanzador es mLauncher; el teléfono, #Fossify; el correo, #FairEmail; los mapas, @organicmaps)
* @editora sigue en la trinchera, bravo :)

@christoffel66 Voor mensen die zich afvragen waar het onderdeel “Wie kan mijn nummer zien” over gaat.
Met #Signal kun je ook met elkaar appen zonder dat je jouw telefoonnummer hoeft te geven. Je kunt ook naar een gebruikersnaam appen. Net als vroeger met de #BlackBerry, maar je kunt hem in Signal ook nog aanpassen.
Dit lijkt mij bv handig voor #docenten met een (jaarlijks wisselende) klassen #Appgroep
Er zijn meer voordelen, ook qua SecOps, maar dat is teveel om uit te schrijven in een post.
I learned that you can use Amazon Appstore on regular Android devices in an article about how that will soon no longer be possible.
BlackBerry's iconic keyboard patent has expired

Aunque no llegue nunca a tener una BlackBerry, he disfrutado de la #película del mismo nombre.
Recomendable, sobre todo a los que nos apasiona el mundo de la tecnología. Ha sido una gran influencia en cómo nos relacionamos las personas en la actualidad. La compañía aún sigue viva, aunque el negocio de la telefonía lo abandonó definitivamente hace unos años.
YUM! So glad to finally have this arrive. The new Dr. Pepper Blackberry is so good!
It has a great smell from the second you pop open the top and the taste is absolutely delicious as well.
This could actually get me to start drinking carbonated drinks again.
Now, I need to get another bottle of Crown Royal Blackberry to try this Dr. Pepper Blackberry with. My friends in Arizona say that combination is amazing.
I recently drove a car whose whole control and entertainment system was a gigantic iPad-like thing mounted to the dash. It caused me to have a realisation about the #Ui and #UX of touch screens.
There is no way to touch a touchscreen without it treating that touch as intentional. What I mean is: without taking my eyes off the road, I can grope across the dashboard, find a knob or button—by touching it—without activating any function. Touching the volume button or temperature knob doesn’t DO anything until I do it with more force and intentionality. Not so for a #touchscreen.
My mobile #phone (an #iPhone 13) has no dead space in its face. There’s no part of the phone face I can touch without it assuming I meant to do that and I wanted to activate whatever was under my finger. Old iPhones that had physical home buttons also had dead space to either side: a safe space to hold the phone without DOING anything.
Computer keyboard have little raised pips on the F and J keys so you can find them by touch without looking. I do this all the time. But I don’t type the letters F or J. Touch screens have no such affordances.
I look at the #blackberry keyboard in this photo and I see a raised space bar. It’s an #affordance that lets you orient your fingers, and orient how you hold the phone, without looking.
I miss buttons.

I'd love to see something like a super cheap version of the #blackberry or even the early 2000s kids communicator the #Cybiko that used LoRA to provide a world-wide mesh to tell the techbros to go suck an egg.
