  • Yes but that’s not really the point though.

    This is about enshittification.

    You now HAVE to buy a separate device instead of the wireless communication that uses radio frequency and is already in your pocket

    It was a hardware feature that existed simply because it was the hardware they put in the phones to do other things as well. A onus feature that gave you increased value, until they removed the headphone jack that was and is still a contentious





  • Some do. I even have an absolutely amazing radio station app that I don’t want to ever change so I don’t and won’t tell anyone for fear it will get ruined.

    But Internet radio isn’t FM radio. Killing the headphone jack killed having a device that should play music without needing to pay for anything other than the device.

    Losing FM radio helps then track you and spy on you, even if it’s redundant for many of you, it doesn’t change that they took that functionality away so you had to pay dollars for access.

    Until access to free universal wireless data is the same as access to FM radio then they continue to take music away from us

    Its just an observation, you might even consider it a worthless distinction, I’m simple sharing a truth that I wouldn’t have realized had I not been using this old phone that still had that functionality.

    And I’m old enough that I used to have a “walkman” so it’s perhaps something that you may not care in the slightest about

    I may not understand what point you are trying to make and if so my apologies















  • Only if you feel like punishing yourself for your own science.

    Twizzlers black licorice vs panda brand licorice is worth trying just to compare the world of differences that black licorice can have.

    Then if you really really hate yourself you can find some other salt licorice. Crazy stuff that is as much more of an acquired taste than the worst cheap black licorice like Twizzlers
