  • Why vertical? That’s definitely the worst part. Maybe for DS games, I guess. The SP always gave me cramps for its thin design, and I’d hate to hold my phone with both hands.

    Back when I was still buying new phones every time my old phone broke (so about 11 years back) I always liked the idea of a slide-out controller instead of keyboard for a touchscreen (just any modern) phone. Sony did the Xperia Play way back when, and if I was looking for a new phone at the time, I’d have gotten it. Nowadays I don’t even think they make the slide out keyboard phones. The next best thing I had was a little phone brace at the top of a bluetooth controller. It games great, but you it isn’t nearly as fast nor as portable. And even then I haven’t used it in a long time.

    If I did still use it, I’d probably want one of these, and I think the price seems good. But I would also definitely look for a horizontal product, first.


  • I do agree with the general idea of what you are saying, however I do not think it really applies to what the original commenter or the article/post we are replying to are saying.

    When it comes to politics and making changes that impact our future, we are playing a really stupid game always putting people in charge that feel zero consequences for poor, shortsighted decisions. In many cases, the shortsightedness of the decision actually benefits them, as they won’t be around for the consequences. In our current plight, that happens to largely be the boomers.

    Alternatively, using your example, a (theoretical, statistically weaker) woman works a physical labour job, any consequence is felt immediately. If she can perform her job, then she isn’t too weak to… perform her job, I guess.

    I guess what I’m saying is that I don’t see it as bigotry to assert that we should have the groups invested in our future making those decisions. Eventually it isn’t the statistical chance that the boomers aren’t capable of doing the physical labour (or work in general), but instead the totality of the boomers being too old to work.

    Reaching so far to blame other people and defend those actually killing others is as brain dead as they come. So I posted this comment to also join in the group of people observing and stating how brain dead you are.
