  • Ive had a couple of these. I find that the jack itself sometimes will not work or the audio is VERY bad. The last one I got was for 10$ and seemed to do the trick. But it took 3 tries to find an adapter that didnt have an issue.

    One I bought at wallmart, one at amazon, one at an audio-store. The final one was given to me and worked first try! I thought it was my usbc adapter until that point on my phone…but my steam deck had the same issues with the usb-c to audio jack.

    I wonder if companies are cheaping out with the components since its a small market. Audiophiles are going to default to using audio-jack. And consumers are just getting bluetooth whatevers. People that want ot direct connect usbc are not the norm. Or at least thats what it feels like to me.













  • I remember the last time prices hit $5 + a gallon. I was on my bike because I was poor and a guy yelled out of his truck. I live in a VERY car-centric city.

    I was like “here we go again”.

    He was like “Hell yeah F the gas companies”. I wasn’t trying to make a political statement, but people were being nicer on the road for a short time. And it was a surreal experience.

    I also remember everyone getting small motorbikes for a time. People were really embracing small vehicles for a short time. Then prices went down drastically and no more small vehicles for a while.
