Now when you want to take your phone out of your pocket to take a picture of something or scan it for an NFT sale you can't do that easily

Sure you can. Just unplug the headphones.

And start blasting whatever you're listening to to the whole world?

You're either trolling or you've never used wired headphones. Playback stops automatically when you unplug a wired headphone. It's the same thing when you disconnect a bluetooth headphone.

You're cooking in a kitchen. There are loud fans, loud kettles. Why would you use a speaker that you have to turn way up to blast over all that noise?

Wtf? Lol. If you're kitchen is that loud, something's wrong with it.

or doing NFT transactions. You really haven't thought this through, have you?

Yeah, you're either trolling or a very special kind of person.

Sure you can. Just unplug the headphones.

First you have to stop whatever you're listening to or you start playing it on a speaker for everyone. Doing that is an annoyance that you don't need to put up with if you just use wireless headphones.

Maybe it does today, I don't know, I haven't used wired headphones in many years. Back in the day it didn't.

Wtf? Lol. If you're kitchen is that loud, something's wrong with it.

If you are kitchen is quiet, you really should be using the fan to get the smoke and food smells out of the kitchen. Maybe if you're just making pop-tarts then it isn't a big deal, but if you actually ever do any serious cooking you'll discover that it gets loud.

Yeah, you're either trolling or a very special kind of person.

Why are you so scared of the modern world? Is it that you're too confused by it all? Can't handle touchscreens? Scared by https? It's ok man, just take a course. You'll learn to live in the present, not the past.
