Howdy. I wanted a central place for information surrounding smartphone keyboards since there have been some changes recently to a few of them. I hope to keep this post afloat over the long term so we can share experiences, information, news, etc to find the perfect smartphone keyboard for ourselves and help others do the same....
I started using Thumb-Key after MessagEase began charging a subscription. It had an “english symbols messageease” layout that was basically the same one I’d used for years.
I played Warframe for about 1y and took a 3y break (before teleporters were added). When I returned it took me about a month to realize I don’t have to stand on them to use them like Railjack Tactical Menu, just hold M and click. And lots of new players in my clan have asked where to get 1200 Oxium for the Archwing Launcher Segment (Io, Jupiter defense).
It's been over a week since the last one so I figured I would do the deed and post it this time. We've covered all the starters, so I wanted to bring the unofficial 4th one, the frame most new players craft as their first, Rhino!...
I agree with the fun part. The problem is recruiting for 64 exo runs. Typically that looks like this for me: the 5 out of 200 clanmates who play it are offline, the recruiting chat has 1 person who doesn’t want to host, the pub player leaves by 30+ exo, and the organized Discord wants experienced levelcappers with voice chat only.
At Tennocon, DE mentioned that they would be making some QOL changes to warframe like pets no longer permanently dying and auto-melee. Are there any other QOL changes that you would like to see added to the game?
Chat windows that persist through host migrations, crashes, and logouts. Players that have messaged me or vice versa appearing in Recent without having to play a game with them. Messaging players in Clan/Friends/Recent who are “Playing” without inviting them + waiting for them to finish or screenshotting their name and alt-tabbing back and forth to type out /w ‘mYn4mEhAs sPaCeS “4Nd qUoTeS”’. Copying ingame text and following links with an external site warning like what Discord has (disable it in trade chat if that’s really a problem, in fact just disable trade chat on PC by default). Cross-platform friend invites.
I think the only officially confirmed thing is the pet rework, right? Everything else is up in the air. I’m still personally hoping for more railjack updates, for some UI work (an LFG tool or a better minimap/buff bar), maybe a way to favorite weapons or a better way to navigate the huge amount of gear we have....
I mostly want to see reworks of existing content. But I’ll set my hopes low to avoid the “never gonna happen” category:
More pet survivability options when not using Djinn/Panzer and more damage options when not using Verglas
Circuit decrees persisting when rejoining squad after crashes/host migrations
Better Drifter weapon scaling in SP
Base stat buffs (not incarnon/dispo bandaids) to MR 0-7 weapons that aren’t modular, Kuva/Tenet, or Duviri melees (obviously adjust incarnon buffs as needed)
Sparring weapons have some really fun and mobile stances but aren’t used much except for Hirudo lifesteal (and that doesn’t scale so well nowadays). They could benefit from an aoe increase (i.e. hitting out waves, phantom punches/kicks to either side), a way to translate their mobility into damage (i.e. parkour speed on kill, damage based on parkour distance) or unique scaling gimmicks that fit their power fantasy (i.e. armor/overguard-shattering punches).
Its 5th evo “Armed Inspiration” grants 5 combo counter when picking up ammo. This makes it a good budget QoL statstick for exalted/pseudo exalted frames that want 12x combo and can’t get it with their abilities (i.e., Melee Guidance Baruuk/Excalibur, Gara). You attack with the dagger to build 12x combo and then (with Body Count installed) fire at least once every 17 seconds instead of deactivating Baruuk/Excalibur 4.
1st evo “Striking Swiftness” is generically useful if you don’t play Ash or use Innodem as a real melee. Praedos and Ceramic Dagger Incarnon also help maintain combo and have more generically useful evos, they’re just harder to acquire.
It’s trivialized by Wukong + Zenurik Inner Might. Inner Might lets you cast clone (and Cloud Walker after a 1m cooldown) for free. The clone is not disarmed and will instantly shoot down the boss and other low level enemies with your primary/secondary. Wukong is also a strong choice for the second mission, which has a low energy capacity and regen modifier. The third mission doesn’t mess with your energy so you can just bring a nuke.
Light attack (12x combo count) melees need a Reach/Primed Reach buff. Prenerf memeing strike would be too high but what we have now is too low. Melee was once the go-to scaling option before weapon arcanes and galvanized mods. Now primaries and secondaries have similar scaling, more aoe/killrate, and less button spam. Only heavy attack melees that delete hallways in a few keypresses (Glaive Prime, Cerata, Stropha) can compete with all that.
I feel like superheroes have a plot constancy that forces them to stay superheroes. Their superpowers may lapse, but they generally get them back and feel justified in using them. Their main villains may fall or seemingly reform in one episode or series, but usually return as bad as ever. In Legends, Luke’s fight with the Empire is almost over before it has begun. Cleaning up the Remnant and warlords falls to regular X-wing pilots and commandos in the New Republic era. Luke is more of a mediator than a fighter and mostly withdraws from heavy use of the Force by the New Jedi Order era. Even the new enemies of that era don’t stay enemies forever. Instead of forcing constancy, Legends allows conflicts in these eras to be “solved” and to permanently change characters.
Have you ever played a game and wondered what if you could do something that it doesn’t really allow you to do, for example being able to move around blocks in Minecraft fluidly instead of in sectors, edit the world in Hogwarts legacy with spells, be able to fly in a world like Elden Ring or Elder Scrolls with epic sky...
I wrote this post for a friend, I’m sharing it here for anybody it might help. I got asked multiple times how I download cracked music software so I figured it’d be easier to write it down once. It’s meant for people with very low technical skills who just want to start torrenting software without major risks, and it...
In that case, direct downloads (in conjunction with ProtonVPN free) would be a superior method. The article makes piracy sound synonymous with and exclusive to torrenting, but DDL and Usenet also exist. Many of the megathread categories have DDL links right at the top.
Cs.rin.ru is mainly gaming focused but has an FAQ that covers general DDL concepts like source trustworthiness/scene names and workarounds for filehoster limits. You could probably paraphase/quote or screenshot with credit (ironically) to save a login. The same people not wanting to sign up for a VPN might also look askance at a .ru domain.
I’ll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It’s not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.
Over the years I've filled my Warframe bookmark folder with various useful websites, maybe you don't know some of them and hopefully you find them useful! Do let me know if I'm missing any and if you want me to add it to the list....
As a returning player I found the comments helpful for figuring out what the meta even was (compared to 3+ years ago). There isn’t a meta onboarding website that outright tells you “damage mods like Serration are mostly replaced by weapon arcanes x faction damage mods”, “status primers are routinely used outside of simulacrum”, “pure slash (with primer) is generally good not just for Nekros”, “Adaptation + Vitality are mostly replaced by Rolling Guard + Brief Respite + Decaying Dragon Key + Shield Gating”, etc.
If you pick a base character then the prime gets removed as well, the better version cant exist without the base version, however if you remove a prime version then the base character can still exist. My personal pick would be Valkyr due to how [IMO] useless she seems
Chroma. His 2 and 3 are unhealthy design that completely overshadow his more flavorful 1. His 4 is a summon pinata that doesn't make Chroma himself feel more like a dragon compared to, say, Shyvana R from League of Legends.
I'd like to see him actually fly like Titania 4 and have every ability feel like part of his fantasy (like Sevagoth). Add to that the burden of working in his elemental subtheme (hence "Chroma"), and a total rework akin to deleting the OG Chroma sounds better and better.
It's been quite a long time since I played through the main quests and I want to know as much lore as possible but I feel like I've forgotten a ton of stuff so just looking through codex would be mostly jargon, what do people recommend reading / watching for a catchup on the lore?
I just read some wiki pages today after finishing The New War and Angels of Zariman. They're easy to follow and tie a lot of quests together into one story if you look up central characters like Lotus.
Nothing makes me feel homicidal rage quite like trying to work with this game's piss-poor stealth mechanics. What part of the game makes you feel that way?
I normally don't mind spies as Wukong is my favorite frame and he trivializes them in 5min. But I hated the forced stealth in TNW because that takes away all your toys. You are forced to engage with everything. You actually must sit down for half an hour or more and trial and error or YouTube 10+ steps of sneaking around. And you have to do them all correct or nothing you learned gets saved. So it's not just forced stealth, it's forced roguelike!
It reminds me of when I tried switching to Linux (from Windows). Functional but lacking a lot of mainstream software, especially games. Lemmy feels way easier to use like a normal website, but there is a feeling almost akin to homesickness.

Can already tell the Jack O Naut mission will be fun
I tried to do a quick run a couple times, got in groups with kept trying to melee the guy down instead of baiting into the barrels
