Maybe if you're using cheap chinese earbuds and a sweaty fuck to boot.

It's crazy how many scenes and plot points you simply cannot write anymore because of the existence of phones. I mean you can always choose the setting for a story and just make it take place in the past, but editors don't like that and the majority is allergic against stories that don't reflect their current modern life to the point at which stories that canonically take place in the 60s or 200 years before get rewritten to be up-to-date like Banana Fish and the Simpsons every 10 years.

Isekai don't follow any era so they aren't perceived as historical. The authors are usually very inexperienced young people without much of a common knowledge and no care so they just throw everything into it that sounds cool to them so you get shit from completely different eras and even continents but modern mindsets all mixed together.

I still remember how fucking weird it felt to me when some anon revealed that smartphones were popular in Japan and that they were more commonly used than PCs. It was like a mindblow to me and I didn't get why.
Then a few years later I realised that an old online friend of mine was logging in from the phone all day. That guy was a NEET, so it made even less sense. I considered him retarded back then. Then I slept under a rock and was busy with work and hobbies and then all of a sudden the whole world was already using those phones for years and nobody had a PC or knew how to work with one anymore.
Almost felt lime time travel or isekai'ing.

It makes sense depending on what you're doing. You can just grab your phone while laying in bed. I sleep on the ground and keep a laptop next to me so I can also do that reliably with the laptop but 1/3 mornings I still default to grabbing phone to do whatever morning stuff I need (checking news, reading articles / books, etc.)
PC is only better for a few things, such as a writing, programming, watching media, gaming.
And the normalfag doesn't do most of those things. There are some weirdos who will even write entire webnovels or LNs on their phone.
>>
>>269199502
I think that historic stuff (to which I also count past recent eras) is commonly seen as dry. Try to get a westerner into reading Golden Kamuy or Historie for example and you will witness what I am talking about.
I never really understood it so I cannot explain their way of thinking, I just know that historical manga tend to be painfully underrated. Sometimes Japan loves them (like Golden Kamuy) but the west ignores them completely. Sometimes it's rather the other way around, sometimes both ignore it. But I never witnessed that it was generally popular unless you count series with magic and everything where the setting is barely relevant besides being the backdrop or reason for some cool some costumes.
>>
>>269199473
It's THE reason why I will never buy a phone without a 3.5mm jack.

Nah it makes literally no sense. The earphone thing for example is a preference, yes. But I would have to hit the max. character limit if I had to list everything that makes phones shit and way less handy than PCs as well as harder to use and generally crippled.
It's like pretending that eating shit was logically the way to go because shit can be seen as food and unlike pasta or a steak it is easier to get and free since you just have to follow some dog or something. Sure it's free and easy to find, but every sane person would still ask why you would prefer this over BBQ.

I mean I've had a smartphone since 2011 but for some reason whenever I see one in an anime it just feels so wrong and it immediately breaks all immersion and I become really distracted by the fact they're using a smartphone and how wrong it feels. I don't even know why I feel this way about.

The 80s or 90s could work for a LOT of settings.
Someone's being hunted down in town at night and can't call anyone. You have a friend stumble upon them to increase the drama because now two people are being hunted. Modern day == cell phone to call for help and it ruins the atmosphere, unless you have something like "no signal" but then you need a reason for that, such as a jammer or a supernatural element. Phone not working for some reason in Tokyo inherently means something's wrong which may not be the vibe you're going for.
IDK I'm just rambling at this point, but a lot of technology makes certain elements inherently untenable.

It actually really bothers me. I used to save certain anime for rewatches later, having the thought of "I'd like to watch this with my child one day (>implying)", but now thinking about it, they'll feel unable to relate seeing media without phones and faggots and the every growing signs of the decay of civilization around.

>>269199671

It doesn't matter where you work in my country every upper echelon is a workaholic that expects you to be same and the coworkers are leeches that demand your number so that they can call in sick and force you to step in for them (everyday). This is the main reason for why I am not giving it to them. I even have a phone I just never really use it. Even if I gave them the address it would make things worse since I would never notice when they call me and work would be even worse since the bosses would claim that you knew and ignored it.

Yes. Which is why removing the 3.5mm is retarded. "To make the phones slimmer" just doesn't cut it. But normalfags' obsession with wireless headphones/earbuds just lets the corpos get away with it.
>>
>>269199898
Memes in cartoons are truly awful. Especially because memes are so transient now, at least in the past memes (the dictionary definition of "meme," not the "look at this funny tweet" definition of the word) lasted long enough to become culturally significant and weren't just jokes that become stale after 2 weeks. They're always WAAY behind when they put memes in cartoons, and not behind enough to be charming because of nostalgia, but just behind enough for it to be extremely cringe inducing because you know whoever wrote it isn't actually up to date on these things but felt it was necessary to "stay hip" and googled "memes" and picked whatever the first suggestion was.

Yeah this. It's worse than the cop problem. As in "why don't they just call the cops"? Before cops were a thing drama, threats and conflicts were much easier. If you wanted a modern setting you always need an excuse as to WHY the MC isn't just calling the damn cops or why they don't notice the serial killer. Phones made that even worse for the reasons you mentioned.

Instead of coming up with gay excuses writer should state that their story takes place in an alternative reality, everything is the same but phones were never invented and Jobs was murdered as teen at the beginning of the story.

My biggest phone fag related shock was that 99% of them are willingly eating up ad-ridden garbage or paying for the ad-free versions which is just as bad.
No person with a sense of intelligence and/or pride would ever accept this shit. You either get it for free AND without adds or you throw it into the garbage bin. AFAIK blocking is much easier with PC and honestly I wouldn't even be able to tolerate the modern internet without 50 different add-ons that make it acceptable.
>>
Humanity is doomed.
>>
>>269200026
Even though I'm complaining about it, it probably won't be THAT big of a deal. Stories happen regardless of the setting. In Kaguya you have moments where she's hesitant about answering Shigure's texts too soon to not be clingy. In the norse days of Vikings obviously you won't have that worry or story element.

>>269200181
When those tech elements were still new you and not truly integrated to society yet you had creative work arounds like "plebs can't see spiritual energy like in Yu Yu Hakusho, so Yusuke can just fire off spirit guns behind the teacher's back without anyone noticing. Monsters masquerade as humans until they start killing people".
But now it's something like "we will create a closed space and pause time to have a super natural battle and then fix all the damage and restart so no one interferes and it's like it never happened in the first place!" like in Sasaki to Piichan.
With all the advances in tech perhaps the worst thing is the almost vanished sci-fi stories, only dystopian stories remain. Grim.

>>269200289
You can put adblock on a mobile browser and use something like vanced or newpipe and that covers 90% of most phone stuff normies (and myself) will use or care about.
I tried putting ublock on someone's PC (they were borrowing from someone else) and they didn't want me to change anything because what if I break it. I wasn't close to the person in the first place but after that my respect went to zero. Half being a techlet / not understanding the tool you're using and half for thinking I'm as ignorant as they are.

Most of the normalfags don't even know how to block ads on PC let alone on phones. The thing I don't get is why the corpos keep trying to push ads to those who do know how to block ads. Ad blocking is not as prevalent as they seem to think.

I used in ear buds when the ipod/mp3 craze started, I'd leave them in my ears overnight 50% of the time, for a couple years. Now I've got tinnitus, doubt that would have happened if it was a headset and couldn't sleep with it.

Inner ear buds just hurt as well, I regret using them.

But once you turn 30 you lived for so long that nothing feels new anymore which makes everything worse, especially when you realize that miracles and cool things never happen. Maybe I was so happy as teen and 20yo because I was delusional, but I felt like the world was full of adventures and mysteries back then and that something big would happen sooner or later, and now that belief is gone.

That's one of the main perks people report about having children, is that they experience a sort of second childhood raising their own children because the newness and excitement rubs off them in a secondhand way (even for the crotchety ones who doubted it would work that way for them).
You're missing out because you're not doing the thing you're somewhat programmed to, such as the whole hormonal rush towards fucking in your teens / 20s which would have inevitably caused the children for you to raise in your 30s and 40s.
You step off the path then you shouldn't be surprised when things feel wrong.

I also have hyper-focus, but it only works with things I enjoy. So if I tried that, I would end up ignoring everything else and focusing on the music instead (I play guitar and bass and my autism makes me imagine the finger positions on the fretboard even if I'm not touching the instrument).

nah, I live with passive-aggressive demons. My hyper-focus works the other way around. I isolate all I hate and focus on what's pragmatic or what is needed.

I think the problem is that things are so bad nowadays that people tolerate shit tier quality more and more.
We've had bluetooth since I was very very young and they've never really improved. They're still so bad. People just tolerated them after a while because Apple and co decided to force people to use it to cheapen out on their manufacturing costs.

This is how dumb people are.
This is the industry you're reinforcing.
You are paying for low tier garbage that won't be properly improved and made safer because conglomerates of corporations don't want to pay for cords.

This is your modern tech industry. It will feed you cancer to feed their profits and that's it.
Now fuck off with your buds and read things about them before using them. Not from the source though, from specialists that complain about these industries because they're way more trustworthy having next to no lobby against an industry with a massive lobby.

It's been a thing since it came onto the scene.
It just disconnected a fuck tonne and sounded trash.

It's disconnecting a tiny bit less now, but it still sounds like dithered trash.
I think it's interaction with mp3 creates a terrible sound. It's overcompensating for errors probably to do with compression and quantization over the top of what already is there with just the MP3 format.

So it sounds kinda buzzy and makes things tinny and not in a way that guitar distortion does well with. It's like mosquitos to me.

I agree, bluetooth listeners and streamers deserve death for tolerating garbage quality.
God I was watching a show the other day and there were so many iffy moments with the sub translation (because it's just the dub now, and we all know the dub is always wrong).
Well you should.
Unless you're a fucking idiot or never experienced fansubbing and the issues with translation back then (which were in retrospect far better than the shitty corpo subs we get now).

Why the system genocided youths and elderly because they just obeyed their system and never questioned shit like slaves. Apparently.
Of course, the youth don't do this. I see them all the time and they discourage phone use nowadays in groups because it comes off as horrifying to them.

To my gen it was normal to read facebook during gathos. In retrospect, kinda dumb. But I learned from the kids doing this to put my phone away.

I'm genuinely convinced some of the people grumbling about the prevalence of wireless technology are zoomers pretending to be oldfags. I can't be fucked going outside and deal with the noise of loud monkeys and an irritating headphone cable getting tangled while I walk around or in the crowd. But hey I discovered this great pair of noise cancelling earphone which happens to be wireless and guess what, TURNS OUT THEY'RE FUCKING AIRPODS.
Though I still use my wired AudioTechnica headphones for my computer.

And I'm a bit of an environmentalist. I'm so fucking jaded with that leveraging ruining environmentalism and diverting attention from bigger issues to tiny minor niggles for the sake of profits.

I don't believe in dogmatic dichotomy for marketing purposes.
Unless you call my waifu a shit.
Then I will burn you and your family for blasphemy to my waifu.

Though I'll bet you'll retort to this with
>eww waifu crap
because these marketing moguls like to replace board culture with their own stand in product stances nowadays. Board culture impedes on their profits from marketing nowadays. It renders their astroturfing ineffective.
Yeah welcome to this brave new world.

You were calling opinions rubbish on sound quality by discrediting them on the basis that they were made by this place, a "cesspool of conspiracy".
And I retorted that calling things "conspiracy" was a marketing tactic because that upsets you and your viewpoint on what the concept "conspiracy" is - which is a marketing phrase that shills use to leverage their products now apparently.

How much do you get paid to post here btw?'
If it's nothing then I feel genuinely sorry for you.

Marketing is super efficient in this age. The corpos made people somehow convinced that having less options is better.
They also sold actual spyware devices to consumers and nobody batted an eye then. But then it turned that the "conspiracy theories" about Alexa and shit were right and then everybody acted like they always hated that tech. It's genuinely baffling.

Actually the first device doing this was the telephone.
Then things like personal computers.
All of these were ways the system leveraged surveillance for marketing.
Really it's a form of capital management. You are just capital to these people nowadays. That's all they care about.
Worst part is that communist countries did the exact same thing, so there's no real solution to this behaviour in a complex human system with a substantial population. Eventually the hive wants to be your enslaver.

Also coffee is good for you.
And buy airbuds(tm).

This thread lost it's control now and things are just escalating.

You're the one calling me a conspiracy theorist to bait this reaction, probably for astroturfing. Who knows nowadays.
It's far too humiliating to be called a serf and tolerate this crap if you're not being paid though. So I assume it's shills.

No ones that masochistic.

The thing with you is that you really don’t know what you’re talking about
Like the pit of what you don’t know is so deep that it’s no use trying to engage with you
And as usual and expected you’re completely oblivious to these things you’re unaware of
And despite all this you post these essays where you’re so convinced everything you think about is right
No sane person would or should waste time engaging with you
A higher education is the only thing that can save you at this point

Specifically for anons curious, it induces stress which is bad for the body, and separately, it reduces skin elasticity making you wrinkly more + saggy skin. Use it only when necessary, such medicine when sleep deprived or having headaches. (Also sleep is super important make sure to get enough)

But this is exactly what I was talking about when I said the pit of ignorance

Do you need further clarification?
Nobody is crying that cars don’t have cigarette lighters anymore
>>
>>269213733

Corporate interest.
>>it benefits the consumer to not have a device filled with features and ports nobody needs
So your argument is literally just "less options is good"? This only works on mindless drones or shills like you.
>>
>>269213776
I can’t fathom how you don’t see how using less useless material is a good thing
Industry doesn’t function in some isolated bubble of existance, it’s all a part of what’s really happening
You’re literally putting your feelings above facts
And yes, less options is good when the options you’re talking about are useless
A fucking cd player on a laptop today is useless and would only take up space and use extra materials for no reason
>>
>>269213821

It's not a bad thing. That's it. It just doesn't affect me. I don't care about the "industry" or corporates.

You're the one projecting your feelings of not needing something onto everyone else.
>fucking cd player on a laptop today is useless
Yep, you're a shill. I still burn CDs.
>>
>>269213821
Unlike CDs, plenty of people still use wired headphones. In fact they're the default still.

I loathe the idea that something I want to use could be rendered unusable due to insufficient battery.

It's not a direct improvement to go to wireless with temporary battery.
