  • Thanks for the link, that does look good.

    I agree, the usb-c connection is th3bmost prone to damage. However, my real problem with the adapter is that there is a stiff part added to the cable in the worst place possible for a pocket. I constantly feel uneasy about the stresses put on the USB poet of the phone by this extra bit of cable with the AUX jack, that’s what I want to get rid of.

    The adapter you linked partially solves this problem, but it’s also longer and bulkier than “just” a USB plug attached to a cable.

    I’m being nitpicky about it, but only because it really is a very important detail to me














  • I don’t see anything that could be considered a “Youth bad” statement in that comment. It’s a complex issue, influenced by a myriad of factors.

    For example, I could dissasemle and reassemble my first PC without any prior knowledge. I had to learn to use DOS to navigate the OS and get things done. I got a book from the library about it, and spent hours upon hours just learning about how the file structure, commands, programs, external media, etc. worked before I could do anything remotely useful.

    Today a PC/tablet/phone is a black box, you have to actively WANT to tinker in order to learn such about how they work. And most big tech companies try to punish you for so much as trying to replace a battery yourself.

    I suspect you are projecting some personal feelings onto a stranger’s comment.




  • Well in that case, the reverse would also be true. So my barbarian can throw a cannonball at someone. How about if the mage readys the shrink spell to target the cannonball just as it leaves my hand? Conservation of energy would dictate that:

    Decisions like these are what makes TTRPGs so fun, and I enjos every minute of these sort ot discussions.
