The fuck you talking about.

The complaint is “phones don’t have headphones jacks”

Presuming I was on your side,

Just insert this adapter into the 3.5mm jack and it will be blocked for you. It’ll no longer be wasted space because this adapter is a useful place to store several grains of rice for a snack.

Homie, you got rice storage with the old jacks. An adapter doesn’t introduce this problem.

Unfortunately you do lose a feature as a result of using this adapter, it will stop one of the speakers from working and degrade your audio quality.

Homie, this is how headphones work. You plug them in and the speakers stop working. If your audio quality is dropping something is wrong.

But you shouldn’t complain about anything removing a feature, or degrading your audio quality. You’ve got a new feature of being able to store rice!

Homie, again the data jack on USB C is more than fast enough to push FLAC through. If you’re losing quality it’s not the architecture.

You can even buy special fairphone sustainable rice from us. With only a small 300% mark up but an incredible 80% of the sustainability of already available rice. It comes in green!

This is you projecting. While this is on an article about fair phone, I’m only here to inform you that your nonsense complaint about 3.5 mm jacks is silly. It is valid, sure, but fucking silly anyways.


Disagree. The 3.5 mm jack that takes up space in my pocket that is unused 100% of the time is the inconvenience. You want a jack. You can have one. You get to have the inconvenience that goes along with it.

JFC y’all are dumb. Just get a goddamn splitter. It’s not “privilege” that you get to keep using lead paint in your house, when you can do the same thing without the drawbacks or the lead.


Seriously, people act like there aren’t solutions to that “problem” that aren’t basically identically inconvenient to how it was before you needed an inline usb c to 3.5 mm adapter.

To preempt those that are gonna say “the adapter is inconvenient…,” no, the 3.5 mm jack that takes up space in my pocket that is unused 100% of the time is the inconvenience. You want a jack. You can have one. You get to have the inconvenience that goes along with it.



At no point does OP ndicate that isn’t what Karl said in the video. They state that the video is unnecessarily inflammatory when “yo, the tax returns for this charity golf tournament don’t look right either. I’m not saying people are pocketing the cash, but it doesn’t look like donations are being accurately reported. Since I’m not a citizen, you should report these guys here.”


There’s no conversation here. You accused someone of something that is entirely irrelevant to the original post. OP didnt say that Karl was wrong, or that he didn’t say “go to the authorities.” They said that Karl is reporting on something in a biased way that likely is inaccurate in some of its details which is irresponsible. Your reading comprehension failure is why I’m mocking you with the quote method. Figured the changing capitalization might gather your attention long enough to get you caught up, but I guess not.


I’m hardly suggesting he can’t. I’ve imposed no moral assertion here, but you have by suggesting that the OP didn’t watch the video and is commenting on it none the less.

Karl, being in Australia is not realistically bound by US libel laws. Sure Billy is using, but that’s gone nowhere, and it’s a motherfucker to sue someone in a foreign country, so realistically he doesn’t need lawyers for this. Regardless, in the US a discrepancy or even a series of discrepancies on a tax return is not proof that a charity isn’t doing charitable things. Innocent until proven guilty; ergo Karl is speculating.

All that is actually being said is that op can have watched the video, sawn that Karl was in fact being biased, stated as much at which point you came in and said “yOu ShouLda wAtCheD THe viDeo. 🤪”


I watched the whole video, and while yes Karl does conclude with that, many of the statements of fact he makes aren’t actually fact but speculation. This is super biased reporting. Doesn’t mean he’s wrong, just that he’s biased.
