the bluetooth chip in my beloved ikea eneby speaker (with the gay pride front cover) decided abruptly to stop connecting to devices today TT__TT i cracked the thing open of course and had a look but unplugging and replugging various cables had no effect; next course of action is probably to try to resolder the bluetooth daughter board (which i HAVE identified, thank you ifixit) except i still haven't unpacked my soldering iron post move and now it's buried in the shed in one of several boxes all of which are behind the woodworking bench and like three bikes. fortunately the 3.5mm jack still works so i THINK my strat is going to be to just fucking plug in one of those bluetooth 3.5mm adapters until i can get my tools unfucked enough to hopefully fix it properly. and of course i can't just get a replacement because ikea has discontinued the eneby because fuck you that's why

I would like to thank Google for creating a new phone with zero headphone jack so that I could spend far less time this morning trying to justify an upgrade. Your pro phone has a SIGNIFICANTLY WORSE battery life than my 5a from two generations ago? That's okay, I carry around a portable charge bank anyway. No headphone jack? Man fuck you. It's me and my cheap wired headphones against the world.

If my Bluetooth headphones turn themselves off for no reason ONE MORE TIME I SWEAR I’M GONNA SMASH THEM AND GO BACK TO MY RELIABLE WIRED ONES

ALL I DID WAS LEAN DOWN YOU BLOODY PIECE OF SCRAP

So im still using my iphone 6s, which i got in early 2017, and why, you may ask, am i still using a 7 year old phone? I have 2 reasons for this, 1) i refuse to have a phone without a headphone jack, i will not suffer the indignity of it, and 2) i don't want to deal with learning a new operating system, because stupid apple doesn't sell phones with headphone jacks anymore i will need to get a phone that uses a different operating system

I have many reasons for wanting a headphone jack, i don't want to have to worry about charging my headphones, i have adhd i don't need to add more things to the list of things i need to do but won't remember, i like having the cord and its more convenient to just plug it in to use the headphones than to have to go into settings and bluetooth and all that, and sure in iphones without the jack you can plug it in to the charger part but what if i want to charge my phone and use my headphones at the same time, and like i know there are adapters out there that can make that possible but again i have adhd i will not be able to keep track of it.

So my next phone can't be an iphone, which tbh is good because apple is shit, but the issue with that is that any other phone i get will be using a different operating system, so i'll have to learn and get used to a new operating system, and i don't do well with change, so im going to use this old phone until it ceases to function

I love you the cord that connects wireless headphones to my phone. What would I do without you.

[steelycunt]

can't find the cord to connect my headphones to my laptop. fuck my STUPID BAKA LIFE

[obstinatecondolement]

Not having wired headphones is genuinely, no joke, ruining my fucking life

[didntaskforfrozenyoghurt]

thinking about my 2013 android 4.1.1 tablet, with a separate usb port i could use while charging my device. miss that

[cripplecryptid]

Thing that suck about new phones: all way too big. Way too heavy. No aux hole. Not my old phone >:(

[thefabelmans2022]

whoever decided to get rid of headphone jacks in phones i hope you DIE and i hope it is a HORRIFIC and PAINFUL death and i hope you go to HELL and i hope you DON'T GET TO LISTEN TO MUSIC EVER FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE OR AFTERLIFE

[magnetic-dogz]

I think who ever invented bluetooth devices should be taken out back and shot
