Yes, it is your fault for losing or breaking your own property. Take some responsibility. When I moved to a phone without a headphone jack while driving a car that I plug my phone in via headphone jack, I simply kept the adapter plugged in to the cable in the car. It never broke. It never got lost. It stayed there until I got a Bluetooth head unit.

I’ve still got it in a drawer ready for if I ever needed it again, but since I’m not an audiophile with a $10k+ sound system listening to FLACs from my phone I don’t need it.

Exactly. Imagine if Lemmy instance owners became legally responsible for everything that was posted on their server! Especially with the way federation works - instance admins would be having to de-federate from every other instance on day 1, and would basically have to approve every single comment on every single post to ensure they didn’t get in trouble with the law.

This is a terrible idea. It means a single bad actor could bring down a small social media site by themself really easily just by spamming illegal content and reporting it to the police themselves.

Nah, most likely the government that enacts these laws will be replaced soon enough by whoever promises to undo the laws.

Movies already have ratings systems and age checks.

Books at book stores don’t generally have graphic violence and gore.

The bible is just text, there’s no gore or violence that kids can see.

Are there graphic gore and violence websites that kids are frequenting by the millions daily?

Guess the people of Brazil will be losing access to social media platforms soon.

Yes, losing your things is your fault lol

There’s a pretty big difference between having a friend over for meals and weekends and hanging out, and that friend railing your wife.

You’ve spoken to your wife and she’s open to it? Red flag. Giant red flag. This wouldn’t end well for you.

Tried taking better care of your things? I’ve still got mine that came with my pixel 3 and my iPhone 11 Pro.

You’re going to plug in multiple headsets to your phone in regularly? You can’t just have a cheap dongle on those headsets’ cables?

Funny how almost everyone in here saying they need the 3.5mm jack also just happens to have a dozen pairs of headphones they use every day lol.

This would make sense if the only Bluetooth headphones that worked with the phone were made by the same company, but alas, that’s not how it works.

The reason they don’t have a headphone jack anymore is because it’s easier to make without it, saves money, has a built in replacement in BT, and people overwhelmingly love BT headphones due to being wireless.

Then you’re going to have to go and start your own phone company. Good luck to you, let us know when your phone comes out.

They’re really no different to a regular iPhone or iPhone pro in terms of size.

I hope you’re not suggesting that people store all of their photos and movies and stuff on their phones SD card and SD card only……

SD cards are absurdly volatile and prone to corruption.

You can use your dozen wired headphones you already have with a $10 usb-c -> 3.5mm adapter.

Yeah no one should trust IP ratings on phones because unless they cover water damage in their warranty - which none do - the company doesn’t even trust their own IP rating.

I always shake my head when I read about people taking their phones in the shower, in the pool, etc. IP ratings degrade over time as well.

Bluetooth audio is good enough when you’re comparing it to phone headphone jacks. Phones aren’t audiophile devices. No one is going to notice the difference in sound.

A 3.5mm jack adapter is as unintrusive as can be - it just stays on your headphone cable.

Just get a cheap usb c -> 3.5mm adapter. Problem solved.

China are the worlds biggest coal producer and consumer, started building like 100GW of coal power plants last year alone, and are increasing their use of coal every single year.

People getting excited about china's massive solar power generation are hilarious. Basically unless china stop using coal, the rest of the world being completely net-zero is irrelevant.

Coal is unreliable and dirty.

China use absurd amounts of coal and they're not slowing down. They're the worlds largest producer and consumer of coal. They're increasing use of all power generation types - coal, solar, nuclear.
