Cowboy bebop's live action was absolute crap and I'm glad it was cancelled.
Yeah, that analogy doesn't track. But sure buddy, whatever you say.
That it should be there in the first place and that the reassons given for not including it are completely false.
At this point I'm not sure if you're trolling or just plain dumb. Either way, I'm not wasting any more of my time. Bye.
"cannot use"? Where you born without hands? Also, that "practice" is not an ancient tradition. It's an extremely simple process that takes 15 minutes. Also no, normal headphones will not "die out".
Did you forget to mention that fixing a headphone jack costs a few bucks and can be done by pretty much anyone with a soldering iron?
You did, because you're assuming that you can only choose one or the other. Even though it's been demonstrated that the headphone jack does not require much space, can even be added to phones that don't have it (check out Strange Parts on yt) and does not have any drawbacks.
That opportunity cost is not a thing.
Ok, then you're talking only about usb headphones.
If you have a dongle and it breaks, good luck fixing the cable. God forbid the dac is integrated to the headphone itself. Also, if the dac fails you're also sol. So yeah, I wouldn't call having a more expensive set up that's also more likely to fail and doesn't have any added benefits a good alternative.
What a dumb analogy.
The only problem I have ever had with headphones are pad/eartip degradation and cable issues. It's rare for the driver to fail.
That's in stark contrast to battery powered headphones, given thart batteries will 100% fail given a few years and they're (in most cases) not user replaceable.
Stop buying crappy earbuds then. I have IEMs and headphones several decades old that still work just fine.
My sony XM4s had to be replaced less than a year after I bought them because the fw killed the battery.
Even if the battery has a long lifespan, it's still impossible for it to match the longevity (and ease of repair) a cable has.
