  1. I’m back looking for work after the end of my latest contract. As I always do at these times, I get myself a cheap PAYG SIM card to handle recruiter/client interviews so that I don’t have to share my personal number.

    This time around, I decided to pop it into my old #BlackBerry Classic running #BB10 OS.

    I’d forgotten just how lovely this thing is. The joy of a physical keyboard and a minimalist gesture UI. Sigh. What might have been if they had not fluffed getting BB10 to market.

    Most apps no longer work but the key phone/SMS/contacts/email do. Just what I need.

    And those BB ringtones!

  18. @onion @scummvm Used to work in development there. There *was* a way to sideload #bb10 apps, but I can't recall if it was through a desktop manager sw hack or via one of the internal sideloading tools. Lemme shoot a few feelers out to the old team and see if anyone has any knowledge / software kicking around still.

    Sigh. #Playbook had so much promise...

  27. BB10 war ein Misserfolg, doch das Management malte 2013 rosige Bilder. Ob das irreführend war, müssen nun Geschworene beurteilen.​
    Blackberry muss wegen Jubelmeldungen zu BB10 vor Gericht

  29. Some afterthoughts:
    1) Installing #GrapheneOS using their web-based USB installer worked like a charm! All preparing steps are well explained, and the rest is just clicking some buttons in chronological order.
    2) I was more than happy to see that only a handful of apps are pre-installed. No bloatware, yay! :awesome:
    3) Using a new phone after sticking to #BlackBerry's solid but outdated #BB10 operating system for the last six years feels like being suddenly propelled to a new century.

  31. BlackBerry will switch of all essential infrastructure for its old #BB10 operating system at the end of this year, so unfortunately a decision has to be made…
