For anyone not aware of this it is a good resource.

Yeh, each to their own, I realise most people wouldn't choose what I do but I'd rather take a hit of tobacco than smoke a cigarette these days. Horses for courses.

A perfectly clean bong and I can taste exactly what I am smoking and I don't particularly like or want that. A filthy bong with what is now closer to mud than water and all you can taste is the filthy you've just pulled your hit through.

For me I want the water to be a little tainted / used already I guess so the little bit of filth takes the edge off of the weed taste but not so much that all I taste is filth.

I realise this isn't most peoples preference (hence why unpopular opinion) but it is what I prefer after smoking bongs everyday for 20+ years now. That first few days after a bong clean, for me, is gross xD

I do also smoke with a mix of tobacco which I'm sure most people would hate more but I much prefer the dirty high it gives as well as the head rush on a big hit. Weed alone burns and tastes like shit.

OK, think I have all the unpopular opinions out now :D

unpopular opinion: a perfectly clean bong is as nasty to smoke as a vile dirty one.

Seen as my username is a reference to the PowerStone intro that definitely has to be up there for me.

When ever I think of this game I think about the synchronised swimmer guy, I can still see that special move where there are like 5 of him twirling around the opponent. They don't make shit like they used to xD

My late teens and early 20s would have been a lot less destructive if I had received even just a small amount of practical financial advice.

Appreciate the addition to the post body, thanks. However I am not going to open links within a different app just to read them, I'd rather just not read them.

The point of my reply was more the latter rather than the former.

"Become a member to keep reading" fuck right off.

The bits I could read though saying they were pretty ineffective for busy urban areas and narrow roads with high hedges and blind corners basically makes them pointless in the UK. Couple that with having to have some form of "computer" on your bars and it all just seems like a waste of money to me. I've done fine for decades by just being aware and riding defensively, I'll stick to that!

From the UK and in my region they are called Strimmers.

As if a "no balls games" sign has ever stopped anyone before. As a kid we used to use the signs as target practice for balls.......

Yeh, they have an EP coming out the end of the month, also on macrocell records that based on the preview track is gonna be good!

There is also this "Fairberry" project that is basically building the same thing but with a blackberry keyboard that I have had saved for years now I just don't really feel confident with being able to put it together myself and also don't have access to a 3d printer to make the case part or the skills to modify it for my phone.

I have wanted to look into getting someone to make it for me but when the cost of materials and then paying someone to construct it is going to start costing a similar amount to what I paid for the phone it becomes harder to justify.

Looks interesting, thanks for replying, I hadn't heard about this. I wonder how it compares to a blackberry keyboard to actually use. A bit too expensive for me as I would have to buy a new phone and all the options currently available are quite expensive phones but I'm definitely going to keep this on my radar and maybe try and get one to try when I can get a second hand pixel 9 for a good price maybe.

I don't know why your everyday pigeon is called a rock dove but I do love me some collared doves!

I hope they visit you again.

Soggfy was just the first thing I tried that worked without crawling for shitty yt downloads of the same things and so I stuck with it. If the audio quality is the same then I really don't see what difference it makes in the grand scheme of things.

I will try out zotify so thanks for the name but it isn't like it will be any quicker as I'll still do everything in "real time" as I want to maintain my account and not get banned as it is a family plan and I don't want to negatively impact the other people that use the same plan.

Also I know people love to use command line but soggfy is just a modified Spotify client so I can just open it up and start what I need in a couple of clicks

You are only going to be able to get 320 mp3s from Spotify at the very best, I use soggfy to intercept the audio and rip the tracks so you need to let the playlists run (although you can up the speed they play at) and there will also consequently be some organisation needed of the files afterwards so it is far from automated but works fairly well.

A lot of the tools around take your playlists and find what it thinks are the correct tracks on YouTube and then rip from there so be wary of the quality you might get from those.

I compared a track I ripped from Spotify with a 320 mp3 of the same track I had bought with a spectrometer (I think that is the correct name) and they looked identical

Yes. Unihertz have a couple I'm aware of but their software is dog shit, fx tec pro is out dated and over priced. The blackberry keytwo was the absolute best phone I have ever owned but that is now too old for security updates too so really isnt the best thing to have as your main phone.

Would be happy to hear of some others I may have missed. I backed the planet computers astro slide on indiegogo and they only delivered around 2000 units before stealing everyone elses money. Fucking cunts they are.

I just want an acceptable phone with a keyboard god damn it, not some gimmicky shit with a crap screen!

Yeh to be fair that is completely understandable. I have to clean quite a lot, I wish they wouldn't shit where they eat xD

You neighbour and I would not get on at all haha
