If I'm at home and not working, it's no contest - I plug in some real headphones, open back over-ears preferably.

That said, I've been really liking these wireless Samsung things recently. They are in-ears, so maybe a bit off-topic. These days it seems all I do is eat hot chip, work with loud equipment, and ride the train - so, lots of background noise and over-ears are too cumbersome.

  1. I'm getting lucky with this bluetooth stuff. They pair immediately when i open the little case, 100% of the time.
  2. These samsung ones just sit in my outer ear and may be the most comfortable headphones I've ever tried. Definitely the most comfortable in-ears. They don't even fall out when I'm running, and the normal silicone-tipped ones always did.
  3. They don't sound good, and this is no surprise because the driver is so small and the form factor is so weird. But they sound okay, and on the train no headphones are sounding that much better than these.
  4. Cable doesn't get in the way or get caught on things when I'm working, and also maybe it's some sensory thing but I hate how the cable feels running under my shirt. For me this is huge.
  5. The battery is not great. Needs charging every day.

At any rate, wired definitely shouldn't be phased out. My new phone has no 3.5mm jack sicko-wistful

I think one of the main flaws of socialism and planned economies in general is not accounting for supply and demand. In a capitalist society, if you don’t want something, you don’t buy it, whereas under a planned economy you’re stuck with it because that’s what the state decided to make. Case in point the coffee shortages in east Germany when it was controlled by the soviets. The people were extremely unhappy to the point of rioting.

ooooooooooooooh the coffee

As opposed to our famously robust capitalist economy which never has shortages and efficiently allocates resources to the most critical needs, of course.

the y-axis ticks could even be fractional, or dB scale, who knows with this quality of presentation

+20 dB (deciballs) / decade
