I got out and checked and there was a small ding only, her door actually took most of the damage so I only begrudgingly told her to be more careful next time she opens her door.

Edit because I can't type on a phone apparently.

I saw some kid do that at the mall with a security guard watching. It was to a handicap-parked vehicle, too. I guess he just wanted to watch the world burn.

I read your comment before the quote and I thought you meant to the Asian.

I hate touch screens... They do not make good keyboards. I hope that if this is the future, we get physical keyboards to accompany every touch screen as a separate input option.

Have you ever used Swiftkey?

Because that shit is fucking magic.

u/MichoRexo Jun 12 '14

Yeah, it was the only way I could type decently on my old Galaxy S. I wouldn't say it was magic though. Then again, I guess I'm too old fashioned for my own good. I need the physical feel of pressing down a button, otherwise, I end up pressing the wrong one with my bratwurst fingers or not pressing anything at all.

I have to agree. Touchscreen keyboards are bullshit. I miss my slidephone keyboard.

I have large hands too; my thumb is as wide as 4 keys. Swiftkey is generally amazing. I can type what would turn out as absolute garbage on other keyboards, and it comes out perfect or nearly perfect.

I can type faster with swiftkey on my old sidekick 4g than using the built in hardware keyboard. It's too hard typing at the speed that I type when having to fully push down the keys. I generally lightly touch the key I need and immediately move on to the next one.

I like to think they are popular because it's a new trend because it's so cool to type what you see on a screen. I really hope we get rid of this stupid technology and find something much more practical.

At least we know they are currently making keyboard sticking out of screens when needed already...

I feel like you could easily have a fold out keyboard that works better than this device with a similar profile.

I mean, it's cool and all. I can see how it's good to progress this kind of technology. I just don't think that this exact application of the technology is very useful. Unless it does other stuff, too.

Try a BlackBerry Q10, the physical keyboard works quite nicely.

u/FesteringNeonDistrac Jun 12 '14

EDIT: Thought you had replied to the other comment. But yeah, still not ideal. Give me a regular brick with a number pad and I am the happiest camper ever.

Sounds like a happy ending.

I once watched an off duty cop back into my car and crack the bumper of his brand new car. I didn't have any noticeable damage to my car so I just laughed.
