More news!So the Clicks is getting supposedly a polycarbonite frame, while the Unihertz Titan 2 Elite comes in 2 CPU varieties?Very interesting! I guess it's going to be the battle of the keyboards in 2026!Cheers!
Amazing news about the upcomming Clicks Communicator and it's CPU. I'm more hyped then before, even though no solid information has surfaced concerning the RAM.However, the power difference of the current info between the Unihertz Titan 2 elite and the Clicks is quite huge.I'm not going in depth in all aspects, aside from single and multi core performances, which should be everybodys main concern. If nothing else changes, this is huge news.Cheers!
Hello everyone! My thoughts where running around in circles for a few days, since I've been having a feeling of beeing stuck in life, due to my dayjob. My hobby is fine, my project is fine, but my dayjob ist starting to really piss me off, so I'm think about change.Living in a hamster wheel of a 9 to 5 job, can get boring and dull at times. Do you feel emotionally numb from performing the same tasks over and over again?If you do and are single, maybe having the realization that you need to get your blood up from a change is not such a bad idea?Cheers!

Yes sirybob! I made my preorder and am looking forward to get this thing in my hands. In this episode I did some keyboard comparion with Unihertz and found an intresting detail that makes me want to try the clicks even more.The rest in this episode is purely aimed at my current state of the novel and some Blu-Rays I enjoyed.Take care out there and enjoy! Cheers!
I love my movies, guys. Collecting does make my heart jump a little. Not a very long or dramatic episode, but it doesn't always have to ;-)Enjoy my fellow movie geeks!
I had to upload this, because I have been wrongfully bashing the Titan 2, while my focus should have been the Titan 2 Elite. It's a different phone that aims to be a Blackberry clone, but again, my doubts still stand and I don't think my criticism is misplaced. We are still dealing with a company that doesn't keep it's word.The last part of the podcast is just me and my everlasting fear of aging. Yes... I can't shake that off.Cheers!
Unihertz just announced 5 years support for the Titan 2. I'm pretty sure this is nothing but a cry of desperation, since they are only doing this inspite of Clicks same offer. They are expecting a decline in orders, because not everybody is convinced of Unihertz and their questinable quality.Looks are not everything. Although the Titan 2 looks nice, after many negative experiences I don't think crying around with their sudden 5 year support is believable and a little too late. I simply do not trust them anymore.
Well boys and girls, how is everyone? I'm excited, because I have seen a new keyboard based phone that could possibly be worth the wait and breathe new life into the dead BlackBerry memories.... oh boy oh boy, those were the days.Make no mistake, I was critical for very long. I still see no potential in Unihertz anymore, because their devices or poorly manufactured and just DO NOT WORK properly, als they should. I simply do not trust them anymore and don't want to invest my money on something like that.And so I moved away from keyboards all together and used Sony for quite some time now.The new Clicks Communicator however is the fist phone that gets me actually excited. It's fresh, it's deisgned by someone who knows his stuff and Blackberry, Crackberry Kevin is on board as well as Micheal Fisher from Mr. Mobile. Those two guys have a vast experience in the field and know exactly what BB fans are looking for.So let's sit back and talk about this. Is it worth it? Should we buy? Maaaaaaaaybe we should ;-)

Movies I have seen that i fully recommend are:The Man from Earth & The ArchiveThese films are both quite entertaining to watch, even though the frist one is an absolute masterpiece from star to finish. Low budget, but f*cking good in it's dialogs.That's all for now.Cheers and happy watching!

Man oh man, it has been a long time since I've uploaded anything. But I sticked to my word and kept writing as much as I could, with the time that I had. I've been rewriting the first book for a second run, while the second is already over 250 pages big. However I'm currently looking for publishers as we speak. So best of luck to my self xDSome new movie purchases in here, and a personal note. That's all for now ;-)Cheers!

Hey everyone. It's been a very long long time, since I uploaded anything. I've been too busy writing and working. Since this whole scocial decay is wearing me out and there is almost nothing you can do about the madness we are surrounded by, I decided to just focus on my book. I'd like to talk more about it, but it is still too early for a reveal. I won't come back online for the rest of the year, unless I have finished my novel and can finally look for a publisher. Until then I hope you all are happy and healthy. Take care of yourselves and stay focused. Stay happy. And of course, stay safe.Goodbye for now.Dean
I was thinking about a very disturbing nightmare I once had. It's possible that I have talked abut this before, but for some reason... It won't let go of me. So I decided to talk about it one more time.After this part I rant about a rather useless article that I found once again on the vastness of the internet. About the dangers of beeing single too long and the cliches it brings with it. As seen and read on so many other articles...Cheers!

Man I love this old show. I just finished watching Angel season 1 to 5 after so many years and i really have to say, it's worth every second. I personally enjoyed it a lot more than Buffy, but that is because of the darker tone the story overall had. Aside from some really crazy episodes like the puppet episode on season 7. (genius)I'll start rambling about the new reboot being planned, some of my favourite actors passing away over the years, due to the shocking news of Michelle Trachtenbergs passing.But what can you do? As sad as it is, it's a part of life... She did die way way too young, but we can't do anything about that...Enough for now... Cheers folks!
Hey everyone. I've been hitting episode Nr. 100 in this podcast, but I can't seem to find anything remotely cool to talk about, except that I have been thinking a lot about mortality lately. And with it, the choices I made and the time I have left to create something of meaning for myself. Because I am and always will be an artist by heart.Time is short and it only becomes shorter. So take all opportunities you can to reach any goal you desire before it fades away. No other person can do that for you, except yourself.

On Marriage.com, I found an article that I find a bit difficult to take seriously. Take a look here:'https://www.marriage.com/advice/relationship/emotionally-broken-man/I'm not saying that these points are invalid, but I don't see how this article helps shedding light on current issues in society. Not all men going through rough phases become emotionally broken. Using a term like "broken", suggests the person in question is scared for life. Is that always the case? Some of these examples describe situations that we all can face, or have faced before, but that doesn't mean somebody is broken. What this article does best is to give some hobby psychologist a reason to judge a friend, or their own partner of becoming emotionally broken. Even if just one of these examples here could be true, doesn't mean to the end of the world, or a necessary labling of "broken" to be applied to an individual.But hey... I could also just be overdramatising..
Hey, I'm back sooner then expected.I wanted to talk about a guy from work whom I offered friendship which he squandered completely due to jealousy and paranoia.Unfortunately, he will never be able to learn from his mistakes.
Scammers are getting worse and worse on platforms like Facebook dating, Instagram or Telegram and many many more. My experiences are often the same, with reoccurring patters. This crap will never stop any time soon...
boy oh boy, I'm getting slow here... Th fist half of this episode is about my only blood brother in the family and our falling out. It's the first 30 minutes. The other half is about a subject, that I firmly disagree with. A.I. will not be able to replace teachers. Why I am in favour of A.I. over a human being and how we as a people could benefit from it. Never underestimate the A.I. brothers and sisters ;)
