Oh, I thought my VPN was the reason I got all of those.

Yee. The music being injected directly into the ear canal does make it easier for it to sound better. Just that the noise leakage of these is more on par with the ones on the left.
I do think the clip ones I have sound fairly well, but it does take a step from plugs.


Personally I don’t think they’re too heavy, but ymmv. Nothing goes in the ear canal so that stays clear.
You can also get over ear “hooks”: https://shokz.com/pages/openfit2
Those may be even heavier, but they sit on top of your ear rather than hanging off them.
I’ve never liked wearing earphones in bed as I want to turn on my side, I’ve never found any to be comfortable in that position.
Also Shokz is definitely not the only brand which sells these kinds, just the one I’m familiar with.


I find it difficult to say. I’ve gotten no such complaints, but I don’t generally use these on, say, the couch next to others.
I wouldn’t think they’re much more noisy then the “non-plug” style of earbuds of yesteryear.



Wired is also valid.
I guess what pushes wireless over the edge for me is the convenience of having a little puck in my pocket which cannot get tangled up.
I don’t think your tone was particularly negative, I think I could’ve done a better job at the tone of my earlier reply as well. I appreciate you clarifying, 'sall good.


I’ve been using them for a while and am fairly happy with them. I like that they keep my ears open, and after wearing them for a bit I hardly notice they’re there.
There’s enough of a gap between the rear “drum” and the front piece that it doesn’t uncomfortably pinch the cartilage of my ear, even during extended sessions.
I know Bose and JBL have their own versions too, there’s probably other brands out there.
Not to say you have to run out and try them, but just so you know there be options.


You might enjoy the increasingly popular “clip” style of earbud.

They might sue you into oblivion for one slip-up, better be vague always.


Cars get more expensive and techy, but from what I’ve seen the plastic-y interiors are nowhere near as sturdy as they once were.


For me, in the EU, google maps shows “Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)” and “Lake Ontario (Lake America)”.
google maps will sometimes show different borders depending on where you access it from as well.
Personally I try to use OSM where I can, but streetview can be really useful sometimes.


If your only options for drinking are dirty water or poisonous water, you should choose the dirty water lest you risk dying of thirst.
There very much can be a “lesser of two evils”.
This post is to say: go out and vote.


Analysts at Bank of America last week forecast oil at $83 a barrel […]
[…] could produce spikes of up to $150 a barrel, the analysts wrote.
The article quotes analysts who published their findings last week.
Comes off as an article written weeks ago
So the article may not have been, but these quotes were.


My banking app has a “is <bank> calling?” button, which is pretty neat. The button is highlighted whenever I open the banking app whilst on a phone call, presumably as a subtle anti-scammer warning.

One way the Chinese government is “subsidizing” their cars is by suppressing the living standards of its people.
That and their industry doesn’t appear to be as bloated and shareholder-driven.

They’ve been showing all kinds of extreme content, why would they care about this particular example?
I mean, I know why they’d suddenly care about this example in the “civilised” world. But that’s kind of the point.
