Well this is a solution for people who specifically don't want Bluetooth earbuds/headphones. If you don't mind buying those then you should of course buy those instead.

As someone who loves and needs wired headphones but loves the convenience of BT - The solution is a Bluetooth dongle.
- Plug your amazing headphones into the dongle
- Keep the dongle in your pocket
- Cable won't get caught as much
- Cable won't suffer as much wear
- Phone is much easier to handle
- If the headphone jack gets glitchy and bad it's cheaper to replace a dongle than a phone
Downside: Many (most?) BT dongles have shitty audio quality so you need to find a good one.
Online calendar with a widget on my phone's homescreen that shows the upcoming week's appointments, so that I constantly see them by accident. And a habit to always put important appointments in the calendar immediately when I'm made aware of them or plan them.
And always have the calendar open in a browser on the computer.
I think it's a scale issue. If you look at an analog clock and a small child, one second and the child are not that different in size. But an adult is much larger than the entire clock. Therefore, a year, that also is much larger than the clock, is out of scope for the small child, whereas a grow person can barely even see a second because they're so small and you also usually get impaired vision with age.
Absolutely. But I'd rather deal with charging the battery in the adapter than risking breaking my headphone cable or my phone. So for me the problem is worth moving.
