  • If this was true, you’d use an ad blocker, and donate directly to your favorite content creators. They’d see way more money, and you wouldn’t be supporting an evil organization.

    They’d have more freedom to switch platforms as their revenue isn’t directly tied to youtube, but rather their viewers. Freedom to switch platforms gives youtube incentive to run a better site and charge a more reasonable fee for premium features.

    But this isn’t what you’re doing. You’re supporting youtube directly and supporting all their business practices in the process









  • Adapters are a cop out. Just put the adapters in the phone. It also means you can’t charge and listen to music.

    Also while there are some natively wired usb-c headphones, I can’t think of any. Any decent headphones will use a standard 3.5 or 6.5mm audio jack, and then the dac being built inwith those usb-c headphones means you can’t use a seperate dac, it means you can’t plug them into studio gear. It’s just so incredibly limiting.

    There is already a universal standard (3.5mm/6.5mm jack) it carries analog audio, why change to a digital connection which requires digital to analog conversion? Why not let the user be able to have a dedicated piece of gear to do that if they wish.

    No professional equipment, or even semi professional equipment uses usb-c. It’s a good old fashioned analog audio jack and it’s like that for a reason







  • JBL bar series of soundbars are shockingly good for the price. I avoided soundbars for the longest time because I didn’t trust it would be up to my standards but I’m very happy with mine.

    As for your record player, I’m sure you’re probably aware but it’s a very, very low-end record player. Basically toy level. I don’t say this to insult you but so you don’t get your hopes up on records sounding good on it. If you want good audio from records, next on your list should be upgrading to a nice turntable. Audio technica makes cheap turntables that are decent.




  • Art gallery followed by some lunch, then visit a record store.

    This way you get to know the person’s tastes in art and you can judge if you’re compatible. If they don’t like the art you like it’s probably not a good fit. If they pick up a Taylor Swift album I know it’s not gonna work.

    I think a person’s taste in art is a very good indicator. And if they’re not really into art or music then they’re not a good match
