That is my poor reading comprehension biting me in the arse 🤣.
I can only speak for myself but real estate on the phone is so tight now, I'd rather forgo a jack for whatever else the manufacturer squeezes in. I went from my Asus Zenfone (with a jack) to a pixel (without) and I haven't considered it a downfall. Even without, you can just pop and adapter on the end of the headphones permanently. Though, I do also recognise that it's less conveniently placed than a jack would be
I'm somewhat surprised by the result if I'm honest. I have switched to wireless and won't go back at all. I do understand the use case for those who want them too but I did not realise it was such a popular request in modern phones!
Good luck finding a team mate! It's rough out here. Thank you for reminding me of season's end
Put yourself 'out there' more. Friends are very unlikely to fall into your lap. Don't shy away from get togethers that you usually would and you'll likely find people that you gel with. Work is a good place to make friends and you can branch out from there. Pre-established friend groups are also nice to get in on. Other than that, regular activities are good (gym, classes, volunteering etc) there are nice people everywhere (just avoid the dicks)
I'm reading The Passage by Justin Cronin. It's great. It feels like many books in one book. A very enjoyable, though slightly jarring read. I'm looking forward to the next books in the series.
This is so sad, yet unsurprising. Fuel is big business... Big business is a controlling interest in politics. Until we tear down, it will not change. I hate to be sinical but optical "change" is all most politicians care about. It's all about promising enough for re-election.
