We used to have earbuds that don't need to be charged because they had a headphone jack, didn't get lost so easily because they had a cord attached to a headphone jack, never lost the bluetooth connection because they had a headphone jack, and they cost less because they had a headphone jack. https://bsky.app/profile/daisyfm.bsky.social/post/3l3mfjc6sn62k

I'm just saying that it clearly (heh) wasn't that clear since so many misunderstood it.

Literally you and one other person. That's not "many" by any definition of the word.

The context threw people off

Again, you and one other person isn't "people"

So I just ~~suggested how it could be avoided ~~ made shit up and explained ~~why it happened.~~ made some more shit up.

There. Now everyone understands.

But it's your comment, entirely up to you to do with it as you'd like.

Could have fooled me with gestures towards this entire conversation

I think you're taking this a bit too seriously and a lot more personally than it was intended tbh.

Yeah sure, use the "just kidding!" tactic of the stubbornly wrong. My younger brother does that too when he finally realizes that he's been confidently wrong for half an hour and doesn't want to admit it.

I counted three the first time we started talking (out of maybe five) but I might've read something twice. Not counted are of course the people who agreed with those sentiments but didn't make their own comments. Not that it is very important. It certainly confused some people (because of the context).

I wasn't kidding, I just think there's need to take it this seriously and especially personally. It was understood wrong because of the context, it could be clarified, only benefit from that would be that it could possibly prevent others from commenting about the wireless vs wireless thing. So no difference to me really.

There's literally two, including you. There was never a mass misunderstanding and the only other one confused enough to assume reacted MUCH better than you when I clarified. This is a YOU problem.

I just [don't] think there's need to take it this seriously and especially personally

The only thing I'm taking personally is your insistence on disregarding everything I say in favor of your own obviously incorrect assumption. That's extremely disrespectful and thus personal.

I don't think this is a much of a problem at all tbh. It's just a comment and a misunderstanding.

I don't think there's need to take it so personally though. Nothing about this is big enough deal imo to be upset over.
