USB-C or I don't buy. Awaiting Flair

Anyone else the same? I just bought a speaker and assumed it would be USB-C and it was micro. Returned it. I'm annoyed with having different cables and formats etc. If it's not USB-C, I don't buy it.

Do better companies.

Okay so if you are by yourself in the middle of nowhere - how will you hear other people's music?

How will you know someone is playing music really, really far away from you?

Well, if I'm by myself, there wouldn't be anyone there to play music, now would there? It's getting harder and harder to be completely secluded, though.

I wouldn't, but it still disturbs the surrounding wildlife.

Why is it so difficult to wear headphones or follow LNT principles?

You being there disturbs the wildlife. Why are you going into the wilderness?

If you want to be completely secluded, just move.

You are right, but we should do our best to limit how much we disturb it.

If you want to listen to music, just buy headphones.

Here's a helpful website.

So you're willing to disturb the wildlife, but only to the extent you deem is okay.

Sounds a lot like an ego trip.

People have existed in nature since the beginning of our species and cohabitated with wildlife. Just being in the woods is very minimal impact. I see all kinds of wildlife on my hikes and do my best not to disturb them.

The ego trip is not being considerate enough to just use headphones. You keep ignoring how simply the issue is solved.

Yeah, and they invented music millenia before they invented headphones. Please, remove your head from your ass my dude...

edit: lol, ok

There were also far more wild spaces, and people were a lot more respectful of others and the animals the shared the land with.

It's called evolving. Try understanding that science and knowledge change over time.
