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 would pay for a company to come out with one of these pre-loaded onto a Fairphone. Seriously.

Linux@lemmy.ml•An upcoming California law requires operating system providers to enforce basic mandatory age verificationEnglish
34·7 days agoYeah I agree with the article, people will just say “Do not use in California” then…F off. OSes are VERY different all over the place.
I dont see this as enforceable. Linux in itself is multi-user. Everyone is just going to put some bogus year for age and continue on. I also dont see websites caving and adding it all in because that would cost a metric ton and be inconvenient for everyone involved. What about server OSes? OSes that have a machine as the only user. Or embedded devices?
It also does NOT protect Children in any way.

12·10 days agoyep, theres a few apps like that nowadays. Bluetooth is VERY vulnerable. At least from my understanding.
I do too.
I heard a theory that the AI bubble might not burst as we think it will. It will slowly deflate.
Companies can re-negotiate contracts and if they do, we may see a slow deflation rather than a huge all in one burst. The push will very slowly move away from datacenters and go back to consumers…but the factories were all set up for very specific chips because of prior years AI push. Very expensive blip in 10 years but prices do not go back down…they just stay the same for longer.
But IDK I am not an economist.

























So Github and facebook went down today. Interesting!
AWS was having issues earlier too. Centralized servers are having some issues more and more these days.
