The computer reboots 16 times when you plug it in.

The buds don’t need a jack. Just the lead that connects to the phone or whatever. That takes no real space.

So… I was more referring to a 3.5mm jack on the phone.

Commute time is a little over 2hours each way. Office use is 6-8 hours. Listening + calls and needing a microphone.

Would rather not to have to do the dance for multiple devices and chargers vs just one and a single usb input.

Some of the bushes and trains have a usb but you have to get lucky and then decide what needs charging more…the phone or the buds.

Give me a wired option any day. Also used less battery power and sounds better.

Wired 3.5mm jack.

Hear me out. I don’t use Bluetooth headphones. They don’t last the commute and work day.

With a jack you can listen and charge you phone at the same time and never worry about charging your headphones/iem.

If I need to use Bluetooth for connection I still can but overall better battery life

 

I only just noticed this option for sorting my feed. I do have a reasonably curated selection of large and small and using “scaled” gives the results I would expect across them all.

Give it a go.

Definitely needs some more testing as those numbers in the table look low to me. Archiving vs listening is a key point and storage is relatively cheap.

Listening on cheap Bluetooth headphones then you can get away with a low bitrate. If you are using better gear and/or music that has a lot of dynamic range and comes from strings (piano/classical/etc) then I would recommend 320 but your mileage may vary.

Listen, compare and decide. I have a library of about 110k tracks (musicbrainz-Picard is amazing) and I wish I had:

  1. Focussed more on encoding albums rather than just songs and
  2. Had 320 or flac

Well done. It’s a Lenovo issue. Had to do the same thing recently for a friends laptop and did the same dance.

I have some IT background so kind of knew what to look for but it still was a pita.

Steam or GoG

Anything else is too much pain.

Any 10mm can lose itself already- we don’t technology for that.

You need to know that most power tools are ultimately owned by only a few brands

Milwaukee and Ryobi for example are both owned by TTI but the Marketing is strong.

I do. Every day. Decent headphones that block a lot of outside noise but don’t need a battery.

Constantly thankful that I don’t have to find a Bluetooth setup.

Contentious part is that I listen to high quality (generally lossless) ripped music. Bluetooth and some adapters do weird things with compression and you can really hear it.
