Moondrop Aria. $70/80, comes with a carrying case + detachable cable.

If all of your wired iems broke, you either broke them yourself or were buying very crappy iems.

Dude. The only difference between a normal headphone with a 3.5mm jack and a "usb" headphone is that the latter needs to have its own dac/amp. Guess what? YOUR PHONE ALREADY HAS THAT. Usb headphones are more complex, more expensive and not guaranteed to work indefinitely.

Removing the jack makes 0 sense.

That way you're at work during the week while not doing anything productive for yourself or the company and you then spend your free time actually working for your employer. Great idea.

Mkbhd is barely a prosumer. Dude knows his way around photography and can shoot videos well but regarding the tech itself he has little to no knowledge compared to an average "techie".

Accepting who you are and overcoming obstacles is something that happens to literally everyone. It doesn't have to happen to someone "like you" to empathize with it. Don't you think that's a bit narcissistic?

I empathized and found solace in life is strange and Max is pretty clearly written to be a lesbian. I empathized with the lone traveler in Outer Wilds and I'm not an alien. Same thing for the relationship between Dante and Vergil in DmC (even though my sibling isn't a half-demon) and various characters in TLoU (frank, joel, henry, abby, ellie, etc).

Lastly, Master Chief isn't a "member" of any community (if 343 says he is, that's just because it's hip and it positively affects their bottom line, there's nothing on that topic in the actual games). That's just you projecting and his journey's success has nothing to with being queer, bi o heterosexual so I'm not sure how that's inspirational.

For some people having the characters be more relatable to them in personal traits helps them to put themselves in their shoes. For others it's not that important. Both are are perfectly valid ways of going about it.

One of those options is significantly more narrow-minded than the other.

You do realize that both Chile and Argentina aren't in the image, right?

Here's a crazy idea. Maybe videogame characters are separate from you and it doesn't matter if they're male, female, non-binary, etc. I always empathized (or didn't) with characters if I found their problems/feelings relatable. Their sexuality or whatever couldn't be less important.

Install a custom rom and be done with this proprietary bullshit

It also (usually) manages to hide the space where the ad would be.
