but then don't you need to charge your headphones?

 

Yep. It's why I don't like wireless mice or keyboards or headphones for my PC.

Yeah. But most people don't use headphones 24/7 so it won't be a big deal

For my wireless keyboard and mouse, you would just change the battery and it would last for a couple of months or so. No charging required.

Still what I use for music or mostly podcasts.  Still works great

Wired controllers are better than wireless. Fuck input lag

The NFL regular season went out with a whimper. Playoffs should be much better.

 

Not surprised people are choosing cinema tonight.

It's also a federal holiday tomorrow, so I would expect very good Sunday numbers.

for you maybe. But if you travel, getting outlets for your phone can be hard enough.  It's why I don't use a bluetooth mic but a headphone mic.  I never have the charger when I need it

Accidental quote?

i wonder if it is a California thing.... Passengers is always packed for 3d and 2d reserved seating.  Everytime i sneak a peek, they are nearly sold out.

If you travel overseas, don't you usually carry an adapter?

I usually travel domestically, and I also drive a lot. If the time comes I can't choose what I prefer, I'm sure I'll adapt, but meanwhile I'll buy what I prefer.

Someone should probably let Illumination know.

That's fine. But what are you referring to when you say it's hard to find an outlet?

LOL who considers Disney "controversial"?

 

Event films are how you survive nowadays

 

 

Haven't you heard, Disney is an evil corporation bent on world domination.

if you are in an airport outlets can be very limited and you can be lucky to get one much less multiple outlets.  and they are small so a large multi usb plug won't fit. There isn't always power when you need it, or you don't have time to use it, or are on the go too long to charge.  There are ways to carry excess batteries etc but it is another complication and I never once thought 'gee I wish I didn't have a cord to my phone.'

 

It isn't a huge deal, but it sure isn't something I'll get if I have a better option.  I consider I6s plus a better option.
