A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
I came across my 25 year old still working (presumably because who knows these days) Etymotic buds in the lil case in my draw the other day, and had a sad face :(
I remember bugging them, paid a high price and justified it by telling my self they will last decades. Little did I know much of that time would be spent im their case, in the draw :(
I was so happy when I gave up on graphene and went back to a cheap moto g that has a headphone jack. The dac is surprisingly mediocre, for an audio snob.
But only when wie see this meme again.
Everytime I have to use that removedass dongle I think about this.
I thought it was gonna be Saddam down there
Didn't they remove the minijack port to make newer phones waterproof?
I really prefer my wireless anyway. I used to go through a pair of headphobes every month, because the cables got fucked from being tangled in my pocket. Now I've had the same pair of buds for 5 years, with much better sound quality than what I had before
Get a Galaxy Xcover 6 Pro. They have removable batteries, a 3.5mm audio jack, SD card slot, and a SIM card slot. I've had mine for about 3 years now it's a big reliable brick of a phone that I hope might last at least another 3 years or more. The only downside is that it's only compatible with Android (that I know of).
If you look up "rugged phones" theres quite a large selection of chinese branded phones that have all the bells and whistles you can think of. Ulefone, 8849, Dogee are some of the brands. Ive owned an Ulefone Armor 26 and now an 8849 Tank 5. Both have been great on Tmobile in the US. Headphone jack, waterproof, IR blaster, 120w charging, 17,000mah battery, reverse charging, OLED screens, dual physical sim + esim. My Ulefone had a walkee talkee functionality and a massive speaker. My current Tank 5 has a 1080p projector built in.
Downsides is that you'd probably have some Chinese spyware or something, updates are few and far between and basically never any OS version upgrades so whatever version of android it ships with is what itll always be. Also it uses Mediatek processors instead of Snapdragon. So while good, they're not TOP of the line.
