I don't intend on turning this into some sort of fight but to me your comment has big

"I don't see the problem why can't other people just have enough money"

vibes (Also I checked and an adapter costs me 12$ on Amazon). I don't think you intended it this way, so I'll shut up now.

As to my actual answer:

  • Leaving it on headphones is not an option to me (I explained it above)
  • Buying one for every jacket might work, but what do I do in summer?
  • Please correct me on this but afaik it's not standardized
    • USB output is usually digital, while headphone obviously require an analog signal. I assume the vendors just use certain pins in the USB jack for transmitting the analog signal while keeping the rest grounded.
    • I know for certain that Samsung adapters don't work on OnePlus phones for example.

I could go on, but there's honestly no point. We're different people with different uses for our phones/headphones. I won't buy a phone without a headphone jack as long as I still have wired headphones.

I have 2 main problems with that:

  • My headphone cable is long and sometimes it gets tangled in all sorts of places. The adapters are small and flimsy, if I leave them on the cable I assume they'll break soon. I have no problems with a broken headphone cable as it is an easy and cheap fix. I don't think the adapters are seriously fixable tho.
  • Everything else uses a headphone jack everywhere. I have yet to see a use for USB-C to audio jack anywhere else. Which makes sense as USB is digital and audio is analog. I assume many people have no use for headphones outside of their phones, I am not one of those people.

Honestly I'd probably buy a phone without a camera before I'd buy a phone without a headphone jack.

I was sold on the idea of a fairphone but that's a dealbreaker to me. I very briefly owned a phone without a headphone jack (borrowed from a friend while my current one was in repair), having to think of that stupid adapter all the time was hell.

The secret is that you have to always add salt. Even a little salt can make oatmeal so much better tasting!

Haven't we already confirmed ignition?

Not that I know of. You can obviously just neglect most energy costs when considering "ignition" and the proclaim you've achieved ignition. These may legitimately be significant advances but it doesn't mean we're ready to start thinking about actually sustaining fusion energy at scale.

Archaeology -> people, Paleontology -> non people

Both are about digging old stuff out of the ground (sometimes)

Source: not an archaeologist, but I was told so by other people who are also not archaeologists

I've definitely had to handle 30gb plain text files before so I am inclined to believe twice as much should be just as possible

I assume different people have different needs, but I feel so much more content with life when I get up early and drive my bike to work/Uni. Having some structure forced onto me is just way easier than living from day to day. But I have also struggled with depression in the past, I may require it more than others do.

The Nazis deliberately spread their propaganda in the middle east. Just a thought.

I know people enjoy being snooty about audio quality and I used to as well. But at some point I just stopped caring and openly admitted that I couldn't hear a difference. I can wholeheartedly recommend!

I don't know why anyone would give Spotify money when...

Frankly, I do because I share a family account with ~~a bunch of people I haven't spoken to since high school~~ my family. The amount of money I pay is absolutely negligible for me, it's less than what I give to homeless people on the street.

I tried quitting Spotify because I really do hate it for a number of reasons. Apple Music was pretty shite on Android (and Linux). I also tried living without a streaming service, but ironically a lot of smaller bands don't release their music through anything but the popular streaming services. Piracy also sucks when you can only download popular music at best.

Huh, I always thought my chamber is way worse vacuum then space (usually about 2×10^-10^ mbar)
