Oh no, not the golf courses!

It’s made of plastic.

Aren’t those acually useless when trying to determine the quality of water?

I’ve been looking for exactly the same thing. Sadly most filters I found are made of plastic, which I find outrageous.

I have a hot take on this one. I actively try not to. I disagree with the concept itself.
When it comes to buying their art, why would I do that if I don’t like the artist, why would I support them that way?
When it comes to seeing their art as their ideas/ideology/etc, if I don’t like them I probably don’t exactly because I disagree with their ideas, so again it doesn’t make sense to me.

Lol, I have to hand it to him, Trump is pretty funny when he comes up with shit like this. Really riles up his opposition.

Do you disagree with those statements? Do you need to see evidence before you’ll believe them?\

I disagree with them.
Higher life expectancy - I wouldn’t attribute that to capitalism. Further more life expectancy in the US is declining afaik.
Less war - What do you mean? There’s a war in Ukraine, one in Palestine, and there’s been perpetual war since …forever. The US war machine always bombs some country, assassinates a democratically elected leader, etc.
Better quality of life - For the 1% at the expense of all the others maybe.

Capitalism is all about profits, not about better products, better quality of life, etc. In fact it’s easily against those things if they get in the way of profit. You can see enshittification everywhere.
For example it would be against their interest for a pharmaceutical company to sell the permanent cure for a disease instead of life-long medical treatment. The latter would be subscription-based therefore create more profit. The cancer comparison is quite fitting imo.

It’s cancer and it’s killing us all.

Big bad gulag is gonna get you bro. Run!

I enjoy the goulash! 🥘

Bullshit warmongering propaganda. edit: and let me guess, part of the solution would be buying very expensive, US made weapons.

edit 2 since I see it’s a popular post: I also love how - like how immigrants are at the same time too lazy to work and living on social security, but also stealing all the jobs - Russia is at the same time too weak and pathetic to invade a country like Ukraine but also going to start a war with all of NATO, lol. 🤡

For those wondering wtf is this supposed to mean, it’s a reference to a game called Disco Elysium :)

We’re not talking about the same thing here. First off a large jack to small jack adapter would be needed in rare circumstances, if you happen to use a pair of headphones that only uses a large jack with a small device like a phone, which obviously only has a small one.
That whole large jack discussion was started because of the quote from Wikipedia I posted, where they mention just how old the jack is. I’m guessing you haven’t read the rest of the comments since you brought it up?

2nd of all a jack adapter is just “wire”, it’s passive ( doesn’t have any circuitry), and doesn’t require any support.
For a dongle type of adapter that’s quite different. Software and hardware and compatibility come into play.
Lots of dongles have a DAC built into them which is separate from the phone DAC. It’s duplicating something you already have, and if your phone has a good one buit into it (which it should), the flimsy dongle most probably has a very cheap one.
I have a dongle and it only works if I plug it in before taking calls. If I already answer and then use the dongle the sound won’t work out of the headphones so it’s useless…

So Israel is a hell hole?

You’re correct. But you can use an adapter. Some headphones (especially more expensive ones) come with their own. And some devices (like my USB audio interface) come with a big jack for headphones, but again an adapter makes it irrelevant whether it’s a small jack or a large one.

I think people who dislike the headphone jack must be young and not have (good) wired headphones.
Older people (older than teenagers and young adults I mean) often have a few pairs of good headphones they got over the years, and it’s a massive waste to just throw them away and buy wireless because that’s what the trends demand. And in most cases wireless won’t sound as good, because the budget needs to go to bluetooth chips, and dacs, and batteries and all that crap, instead of just focusing on audio.

According to Wikipedia, ‘The original 1⁄4 inch (6.35 mm) version descends from as early as 1877’, and it’s been an industry standard since then.
You can use it not just for headphones but as a line out, to connect all kinds of audio devices between them. You can hook up your phone to a car audio system, an old radio (if it has input, I think most do), a guitar pedal or an amplifier, a reverb or an effects unit, etc., just with the “magic” of wires.

I should be sleeping right now…
I’ve been trying to adjust my sleep schedule so I go to bead earlier so I can get up at around 9 without being uselessly tired. Haven’t managed yet but I hope to get there slowly.

Ty for the tip! I only did a brief test but it seems to be working well.

I’d love normalization. Hope it works for movies where explosions are 10x louder than the dialogue.

Was. They didn’t like what they found though.

I would have done the same.
