minus-squareespentan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up21·23 天前Fuck yeah, I miss being able to send messages without looking at my phone, or even removing it from my pocket.
minus-squareMac@mander.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·23 天前I’ve been thinking lately how cool it would be to type via T-9 on PC via the numpad. Game-changer for HTPC duties.
minus-squarebridgeenjoyer@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·23 天前Oo someone has to have done it
minus-squareFaceman🇦🇺@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·23 天前but would you want it flipped to suit the numpad layout? personally i’d be happy with flipping the whole numpad to a phone dialler layout.
minus-squareMac@mander.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·23 天前Good question. I’d have to relearn it anyway, so i don’t think it matters either way.

minus-squareanotherandrew@lemmy.mixdown.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·23 天前Nah I’m 50. T9 was necessary, not some kind of miracle.
minus-square𝔼𝕩𝕦𝕤𝕚𝕒@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·23 天前Had a nokia 3310, had a flip phone, did not like T9. The predictive nature was aweful and never got me to like it before I got a slide keyboard phone.
minus-squareCmdrShepard49@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·23 天前Predictive nature? I remember just spelling every word out.
minus-squareFaceman🇦🇺@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·23 天前that was the other mode, where you just tap “777” for R for example, T9 predictive had a dictionary to match the word so “weed” became 9333, instead of 933>33>3.
minus-squareGMac@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·23 天前Yeah, everyone i know turned off or ignored the prediction crap back in the day.
Wait I looove t9 bro
