Phones should have FM radio again
  • I used to swear by wired headphones.

    The audio quality, not needing batteries, the simplicity.

    But then I got a decent pair of Bluetooth headphones and I discovered how much wires got in my way. I discovered that the audio quality coming out of phones were garbage regardless of connection type, and the headphones I got would last weeks of daily use on one charge.

    Plus I would get a more water proof phone, and I would never have to worry about the headphone jack breaking inside of the port, or my headphones going flying off because I walked past a knob of whatever at just the right height to ruin my day.

    I still want phones to have the ports, but on mobile devices I'll never use them. I just want others to be happy too.

  • I remember downloading a mod for San Andreas, as I wanted to try out a sick motorcycle.

    I remember spawning it in and my laptop nearly imploded as the number of polygons it had to render quadrupled.

    I was a sad kid.

  • Searching for jackets: ✅

    Searching for long jackets: ❌

    I'm so used to having the second option be images. So now I often click the products tab or whatever option it thought up and I know for a fact that Google is gonna take that one misguided click and run a whole ad campaign on it.

  • That's a possibility, though that usually means they would need to run wires in a strange way to power the units. I haven't seen a median used in this way but it's possible.

  • Someone told me that they no longer fold their clothes when they put them away.

    To me, it's anathema.

    What do you think?
