Never mind companies, that even so much as orbit around mobile phones, hiring people from casinos to add casino-like behaviours into their glass slabs of crap. Don't get me started on sportsbooking.
Letting mobile developers work on things outside of mobile phones was a mistake.
@sun@shitposter.world @feld@friedcheese.us its annoying but tbf airpods are quite nice.
@sun@shitposter.world @feld@friedcheese.us i have that problem but i bought some memory foam eartips for the airpods pro and they stay in pretty well now. needless hassle but it's worth a shot if you want to try using them
@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world getting milk delivered seems cool why did they stop doing that?
@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world in terms of sound quality but airpods are really convinient
@sun@shitposter.world @feld@friedcheese.us one of mine is too thats but memory foam works
@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world i use some wired gamer senheisers for my computer but i use wireless when im out and about
@sun@shitposter.world @leyonhjelm@breastmilk.club @feld@friedcheese.us i have the best luck w/ belkin for apple stuff
@sun@shitposter.world @feld@friedcheese.us no they're third party ones i bought on amazon the apple eartips didn't stay in
@sun@shitposter.world @feld@friedcheese.us i can check the brand i got but mine were for airpods pro 1 idk what you have
@sun@shitposter.world @feld@friedcheese.us the only ones that ive used that stay in are the airpod pros (regular ones do not) and even then not that well until i got aftermarket tips
@sun@shitposter.world @leyonhjelm@breastmilk.club @feld@friedcheese.us theres so many bullshit chinesium brands on amazon that dont fucking work.
You can get some gamer BT that fold for traveling. They often have cheap ear cup replacements as they're expected to be repaired too.
@anemone @sun @leyonhjelm @feld at least all the Lightning ones only use the wired connection as a power source and still use bluetooth for audio because apple, it’s hilarious
it's like reading a newspaper through a microscope.

Is this company Russian? The facts that their website has only Russian and English languages, they suggest using Russian online stores and some key people have Russian names look *kinda* suspicious to me 🤨
@icedquinn @dcc @sun
It's not even about the political statement, there are reasons to stay away from Russian tech even if it's manufactures in Taiwan.
Just as Americans are often… alarmed about electronic equipment that offers security/privacy made in US — just a few days ago I was accused of being on "CIA instance"🤣(But why would a Russian person care about CIA?)

In this form factor — probably yes, never dug into it, but if we're talking physical keyboard in broader sense, there is this: https://liliputing.com/phones/fxtec-pro1-x-specs/
There is Cosmo Communicator: https://www.www3.planetcom.co.uk/cosmo-communicator
I think there could be other options to choose from 🤷
@icedquinn @dcc @sun
Can't tell, never had it. Might depend on your use cases. Besides, I expect it to be a day night difference in terms of usability when you use the Android it came with compared to when you put e.g. Ubuntu Touch on it — which I would probably do, or rather PostmarketOS even, don't see the point in having another Android device — but you might have other things in mind of course.
@icedquinn @dcc @sun
I don't know. Its a niche market nowadays — not as profitable. I remember upper management folks adoring their Blackberries in the 2000s — it was a high profit margin market at the time, but times change and nowadays you're better off cranking out "slate" phones for the wider audience, even if you're a smaller company.
