 How in the fuck is this thing still alive??

I went through some old boxes the other day, and found this gem! Oh, this thing has caused me so many grey hairs and sweat and tears... I was so happy when I could finally replace it with another device, but my oh my, I've never had as much fun with anything as I did with this thing.

This was my very first smart phone. But calling it smart is very misleading.

Have a gawk:

Yes, that is Cyanogenmod 7 you're looking at.

This thing is SO tiny! Not only in actual size, but in hardware as well. I think there was about 80mb available storage on this thing. It has around 30gb ext storage, but these older versions of Android didn't allow for using ext storage for much. So... Needless to say, this thing was ALWAYS full.... Jam packed. I had to uninstall one thing to use another, and eventually nothing worked as the stock apps became larger.
One thing I liked about this, tho, was that I, at some point, could uninstall whatever I wanted. Which of course led to a few recoveries, because I removed stuff I needed. xD
I'm not sure what happened, but eventually I couldn't uninstall stuff anymore (I probably removed something I needed to be allowed to do that...), and I gave up.

But, have another gawk, just to see that I am actually serious about it working! (it's been on and idle for several days now!)
Yes, the date and time on this thing was completely off, but it works!

I can't really think of a single thing I could use this device for, other than to look back at ancient times when nothing was amazing. But it is an example for today's devices. This thing has a live battery. I bought it in 2011. I used it non-stop every day. I charged it every night. It's been turned off and stuffed away since 2012. And it will still freaking charge, hold charge, and boot up.
It's actually pretty incredible.


Anyway, I just wanted to show it off. That'll be all, girls.

Just a random entry about my favorite tank

...among the THREE I have (seriously, like I've said, I'm broke. Always. Couldn't even really afford those I have). So, I have the Melo III Mini, Tfv4 Mini and Tfv4 original. Here are some thoughts on the tanks after having used them for a while and burnt through copious amounts of coils. Literally. Melo III Mini My very first tank. It held a lot of promise while I was doing some last minute research on it before buying it. The clouds looked good, and people were pleased with the taste. After having used it for a couple of months, I have to say I really like it. Out of the three I have, this is the FLAVOUR tank (no tfv4, you're fired from that position). Seriously. That tiny little tank gives the best flavor of the three in my opinion. Which is why it has gone from being my last resort to the tank I put my most tasty juices in. Some of them taste like ass on my other tanks, but can taste rather good in the Melo. So yes, Melo wins the flavour contest! No doubt...

My (current) juices and short reviews

I have three things that are important to my vaping experience. Clouds Taste Low throat hit It's a learning experience, but with the help of people who know what they're doing, I'm getting closer. In this post I'd like to show my juices. They are non-expensive, and none above 10 ml, because I don't know. Hangsen e-liquid, Red Cola, 3mg, 10ml I LOVED this one! It tastes just like Cola pops. Frozen, sweet, awesome Cola! I had to try it immediately, of course, so I learned that even though it has been stored a little before you get it, a little more steeping is not a bad idea. I am most definitely buying a lot more of this!!!  Hangsen e-liquid, Mango, 3mg, 10ml Well... I mean, I guess there is trace of a fruity flavour in this? I'm not quite sure. I don't think it's mango, though. It's not bad, not at all. Just not as much flavour as I had hoped.  Hangsen e-liquid, licorice, 3mg, 10ml No! Just NO!!! BAD Hangsen! ...
