Why would it work any differently? If there’s a way for the company to make more money off both and there’s no punishment for doing so, what’s the incentive for anything else?

Not really. Until you get down to really small sizes, the human ear can’t perceive the signal noise. If you’re recording at a full studio level, the lower the noise floor, the better, and thicker cables/ports are better, but for most indie stuff, 3.5mm would suffice just fine for audio quality. Also, if you amping the signal like crazy, that could theoretically help with noise.

Someone watching jam2go???

Considering the 1/4” jack has been around for literal eons (1877, no joke), there’s sort of just tradition when you compare it to the 3.5mm from the 1950s. The primary reason being durability. Your guitar is probably going to be yanked on pretty rough a few times compared to something as little as a phone that will just rip out of your hand. On the guitar, it’d probably damage the port pretty quickly.

Don’t worry. It’ll get into a collision before you finish a whole ride.

At this point, if someone I recently met went to pick me up in a Tesla, I’d decline and just drive myself there. Your car does not care about its own life. How on earth does it have the capacity to care about yours?

Unless you wanted high transfer speeds for something like an iPhone if you’re transferring videos, then you’d need something like 12 or 13 poles. Now imagine accidentally yanking on the port of a modern smartphone tripping over the cable.

I could only generate about 9 poles in my testing.

I agree with all of your points, but if we don’t even shine a positive light on steps in the right direction, then what are we supposed to do? Wait until we’re in a utopia, then start acknowledging improvements?

This isn’t a perfect final solution, but it’s a positive step, so I’d still say worth celebrating.

I’m right there with you. I don’t doubt they are correct, but from the start, my brain has solidly decided to perceive it as white and gold. Cannot see blue anywhere no matter how much I try and force my brain to look for it.

Well, that would make sense since they’re traditionally tech showcases. They were huge when they were first coming out due to the parkour and melee combat alone. They’ve certainly aged over time, but I’d say anything after IV holds up well in terms of gameplay loop. The earlier ones can be rough around the edges if you don’t have nostalgia for them.

Great Scott!

The lamp only works on a NY subway.

Granted, I also can’t stand their art style, but you just described every piece of decorative art. The only requirement of art is for someone to say it is.

Probably watch a bunch of tv shows and fall asleep, if it lands on a weekend.

You can, but you turn back time to before you were Superman, but still moving that speed, so you just atomize.

I played all sorts of edutainment games, but I’ll give a deep cut and go with Grammar Games. I’ve never tried booting it up as an adult. I wonder if it holds up even slightly.

It is the first movie I recommend to virtually everyone when I get talking about movies. It’s a damn shame the BluRay was only in print for a short while copies go for $150+ these days if you can even find one for sale. Probably pretty easy to get on DVD though.

You’re hitting a lot of the ideas brought up in this scene from my favorite movie. It’s all so up in the air as far as what the ‘soul’ or ‘intelligence’ really is.
