There are phones with jack that are IP68. Here are phones with this setup that are from 2022 or newer.
Doubt there is any conspiracy. Headphone jack was probably removed to cut cost since wireless earbuds were becoming popular and majority of users did not mind. It annoyed me at first as well, but once I went with BT earbuds and headset, I cannot imagine going back to wired except when stationary on PC. Battery life is 30 or so hours and I do not thing I have ever had problems with connection.
Only thing that worries me is that your earbuds probably are an e-waste once battery no longer can hold a charge. That said my current earbuds are basically destroyed even though their battery still is fine.
Has been a thing since at least 2006.
Yep, they are called news agencies.
Insane that there was no one from Disney side who did not try to stop this in the first place. Don’t mind the empathy, nobody saw this as a bad move for their image? Unless they were being sued for 100+ M I don’t see how this made sense financially for them.
And this terrible dry response from them, insane.
While decentralised systems can be useful it will not be the future. Initially everything was decentralised and then we moved to centralised systems because they are easier to manage, easier to secure, cheaper. The main benefit for decentralisation is that you are not tied to single organization that dictates all the rules. If reddit would have better management, I would move back.
Another thing that comes in mind is native PWA support. Currently you need an extension.
