Let's talk about music for a second. I don't really know alot about Korn, but there are 7-8 songs I really love and enjoy listening to. Heard those 2 new singles "long" ago, and I have great expectations regarding this new album. Everything reminds me of Falling Away and similar. Looks like they're finally back to their old sound, back to metal to be precise.

They should've gotten rid of it years ago, not just Apple, but every phone manufacturer. Such an inferior technology.

Not sure how its inferior :/? If it was inferior why are audio producers still use jacks on their setups

[sahib lopez]

Well, well, well...shall we call her the Sprint girl? Hasn't it been a year since the Taco Bell girl episode? Oh well.

Hey Sahib, what are the odds that the Sprint girl has a brother?

Well this is another girl . Sprint girl hasn't come.back yet lol. Taco bell girl has a child now a baby girl :p . The girl I'm talking about is what you would call a Samsung fan girl . So I'll call her Samsung girl

[sahib lopez]

There's an easy way to find out...

I have only known her for about 5 weeks. I think I'll take my time and cultivate a friendship first:)

So a quick update. Traffic was absolutely horrendous in the morning, left at 7:58 AM, got to the hospital at 10:06 AM - only 28 miles, aarrrgh!!!
We were late by 6 minutes to the appointment, well that didn't matter a hill of beans because the doctor was running behind by 2.5 hours!!!
By the time everything was said and done, we were hungry - it was way past lunch time. So after having a nice lunch in the cafeteria, got home and then finally stumbled into work about 6.5 hours after start time.

The kid needs to take some experimental medication for about 6 weeks. After that the specialist wants to do some invasive catheter based diagnostic testing. Luckily he knew about the symptoms and was fairly knowledgeable. The department is rated #3 in the nation so we are keeping our fingers crossed!

Just do a little research, it'll take you 5 minutes. Sound quality via USB is much better, even better via Lightning port I believe.
3.5mm audio jack technology is at least 15 years old, or even more.

As long as we can keep a corded option in some manner, I'm OK with dropping the 3.5mm jack... Although, it should be standardized, so I'd opt for the USB type C head phones. **** Apple and their crap adapter(s).

As I said, it's a really old technology, it was about time. As far as Apple concerned, I didn't watch the event, I have very little interest in their products. You don't see that many iPhones here, not to mention Macs.

[Rose640]

Speaking of Mac, you guys remember that cousin of mine from St. Louis that was in visit few weeks ago? Well, she had a Mac, and man did I look stupid. I didn't know how to play a song on that thing, I don't even know which software she was using.

I somehow found Chrome, went to Youtube and played what I wanted, she looked at me as if she was staring at the fool.

[Rose640]

It's about time I go to bed. Just over 4 hours of sleep ahead of me, not even near the so desired minimum.

2k posts and it's only been a year. Well, Sahib you better look out.

What the hell? Just got a notification on my surface to respond to a text from my phone by opening the Messaging app... Anyhow, I can open it, but it doesn't seem to have the backend connections because you can pick a contact and type a message, but the send arrow is always greyed out.

First off all I can tell you the whole lighting sounding better isn't proven yet. All cellphones and computers have a dac already what they are lacking is a proper amp. HTC solved that when they put proper amps with their phones. Their audio sounded great with any pair of headphones ( mia can vouch for that) In the end result all audio is converted back into analog or else the speakers in our headphones wouldn't work. The headphone jack isn't the problem, the problem is that we don't have proper amps to make the audio sound better. Apple its not doing anything great, they are being greedy for removing something that wasn't broken to begin with

I wonder when msft its going to bring back that messaging everywhere :/

Sorry to burst your bubble but at the peak he cranked out more than 2K posts in a month....mostly typos and emoji's but still....

It looks like it is on the way back... I blurred out the contact's name...

I'm going to agree with Sahib on this one.

All signals to your ears have to change to analogue at some point. So it will always come down to the DAC quality and the earphones quality.

Everything else is irrelevant.

[N_LaRUE]

I'll only say this.

If you want to have a friendship, keep doing that. If your want something else make it known sooner rather than later.

Whether you're a boy or a girl, you want to know if someone is interested in you. Dragging things on can send the wrong message.

I'm sure this advice has come up before...

I agree as well. I use a FiiO Q1 DAC and Sony MDR-7506 headphones on my devices. I also listen to FLAC or WAV files.

Huh I forgot I would only post emoji's 😀 at least it wad something

I hope they bring it back soon. Sometimes I want to charge my phone and leave it the room and message people on my pc.
