Pretty much

What about those named “Jill Stein”

That would require pinpoint accuracy

So has she

No wrong way to take it - my complaints do sound like ye olden days of BT.

I have a pair of Shockz bone conductors and a MiniRig 4, both of which I enjoy quite a bit. I have also run into all of these issues in the past year. My post was mostly meant to counter the statement that Bluetooth is so far ahead of old tech. Sure it’s great, but like any tech, it has fail points

I have a bunch of different wired headphones (an embarrassing number of them) and they just don’t fail. I’ve never had a headphone jack fail on me. The sound is great - no batteries, no connection time, no latency, no compression, literally plug & play. There just isn’t much that can go wrong with them, so for me, BT is a convenience (when I don’t feel like having a cord) but not necessarily an improvement

The key being: for me. Everyone else, if you love BT, keep enjoying it

Reception cuts out of I turn wrong. Headphone batteries are usually flat when I decide I want to listen to something or take a call. Phone wants to pair with every other BT device except the headphones (save for the time it somehow forgets them and I have to dive into the menu and re-pair). Old phone’s BT is starting to get flaky. So much latency no matter what. Sound quality still not there yet.

I do like not having a cord, but literally everything else about bt headphones is a step backwards against simplicity & longevity. I have minidisc equipment from the early oughts that still sounds fantastic on the PortaPros I also got at that time.

Also you kids get off my lawn, apparently

A: Not hate. More bewildered pity.

B: Not about how you vote. That’s up to you.

C: In this case, proudly advertising that you support a garbage person after he’s proven time & again he’s a garbage person says a lot about your morals, or at the very least, your critical thinking prowess.

D: Joke explained; humour removed.

Why does this gem only have 3 upvotes?? Adding one.

I am so close to pulling into these people’s driveway and asking “from whom? Taking America back from…?” just to watch them not want to say it out loud.

I’d love to say I solved that for myself by not having kids, but I just found other sources of stress.

Safer to DIY

So many STDs tho

Seriously. USA is like the generic video game starter character before anyone’s had a chance to customise it and level up. At all. And I say that as someone who lives here.

Ferb, I know what we’re gonna do today!

Respond to nothing. Block everything.

Agreed, but the “I only vote third party” people never think about elections unless it’s the presidential election (gestures vaguely around), when it’s far too late. This is work that needs to start at a local level to build the party slowly and methodically on a solid foundation and integrate it into the system through numbers and results. Americans just don’t have the attention span.

Four years MIGHT be enough time to finally establish a viable third party, but it’s gonna take work.

You’re right, of course. Patent illustrations traditionally show the item only from behind.
