Bravo!

No problem, just note shipping times can be higher than other stores. Also be sure to use the EU domain (linsoul.de) otherwise customs duties may be added :)

Check out linsoul if you are in the EU or massdrop if you are in the US.

There are a huge amount of basic, low cost earphone manufacturers. The budget audiophile community can also provide more targeted help if needed, just be sure to include more info like price range, how you plan to use the headphones and what quality you expect, to get more helpful advice.

I’m currently using a €25 set which have almost identical sounds quality to my €200 headphones in many situations.

I understand the sentiment you are going for, but I think it is a little cheap regarding the opinion of 300 million+ people.

In my horribly narrow opinion, the American freedom is simply the freedom to choose. Nothing more, nothing less. The freedom to own a tiger, buy a tank or be “Florida man” for a day.

It is not “free” from manipulation and sometimes it really feels like a 5 year old choosing to do the opposite of the right thing just “because”.

Sidenote: I ABSOLUTELY do not think it is the best way to build a nurturing society, but I get why it has such a passionate supporter base.

Oh… :(

This is not correct. Bluetooth is a radio frequency communication tool. RF is part of the electromagnetic spectrum and does, in fact, "move’ at the speed of light.

Kids, especially at 5, just don’t need it. It isn’t helpful or social for a 5 year old.

IMO, you shouldn’t give any gifts to kids under 10, that you don’t intend to allow them to use unrestricted. If it’s meant to be restricted, don’t call it theirs.

Also, every kid is brought up different. I don’t think they’ll be embarrassed not knowing how to scroll a touchscreen… Stop hating on your brother’s parenting styles unless it’s harming their kids. Buy him some kids scissors and glue if he needs the practice.

I have a Clara 2E. It was some time ago, so I cannot remember all the fine details, but I couldn’t get mine to start without some internet connection. I gave a throwaway email and allowed it to update before I switched off WiFi and could freely move books with Calibre.

To it’s credit, in 3 years since purchase it has not asked for internet since switching it on the first time.

Yeah, this is ai slop

Rude!

A single moment of madness.

I don’t have any useful advice for getting them back to sleep on top of the other comments, but for the sanity side of things we found that for us, taking turns was the only way back to sanity.

If you have the option of a couch or a 2nd bed, either you or your partner can sleep there whenever limits are reached. We introduced limited bottle feeds to make this possible at this stage.

A day or two of proper sleep can change lives at this stage.

You put the “L” in “LLM”.

I’ve done this with an old pair and works fine. It may be worth noting that I have had a few of these adapter’s fail over time. So if OP takes this solution, I would not recommend permanently fixating the adapter to the headphones (e.g. with super glue)

Beautiful! Maybe refrain from posting that name in German communities though…
