What I mean by listening to music on the phone is, listening to lossless files from the phone's internal storage using my old JBL or Sony. Even if wirless are better now a days, what if my old headphones are not bad too? A new Bluetooth headphone of the same quality cost a fortune too. Of course there are Smartphones still has the 3.5mm jack, like my current Sony. Or a USB-C adapter is the only way to go in the future? The problem is, why take people's options away if you don't care about ultra thin thickness? Fairphones themselves are not thin either.

And DAC is simply a different thing. If listening from home, there are different set ups for that with speakers. And my home sound systems are even older. They are not consumer products that you throw away every five years.

For me, I already have very good headphones from years ago, and they are all working. I don't want to buy additional Bluetooth headphones just for a Smartphone. Why do I have to buy additional gears just to be able to use my perfectly functional old ones? Or do I have to accept that Smartphones nowadays are just not for music?

Growing up in the Metric environment, I only have to deal with the Imperial system very rarely before the Internet. But later, I found out there's a whole country that only use Imperial, and that they almost always demand you convert your system to the one they understand, and almost never bothered with Metric when they write anything. But then again, I found out that they also use units that are totally novel. I just have to accept that this is the character of them, and continue using Metric.

Films about exorcism. Even if I have religious family members, my non-religious mind can't comprehend the point about these films, no matter how hard I try.

I've seen people scrolling on it their whole time on public transportations on materials worse than the worst of TV commercials, like they were in a trance. I know people who using it for at lease an hour every day before bed, and admitting they don't know what they get from it, just boredom. From what I know, it's like brainwashing for people who don't know what to do with their lives.

This ideal rural place is so different from the rural that I see. But I know it's just a game, and Countries and areas can be very different.

In the game, the land you inherited from your grandpa can be left along for so many years, no one has already seized it. Even the Mayor has left it along, not put it into some other uses. Maybe it really is very remote, to the point no one thinks it's somehow profitable.

The residents in this game are not paranoia. They don't view you as some outsider who wants to take something from them or hurt them. (Edit: Well, some are indeed very cautious.) We had a relative who went to remote areas in their youth, they went back suicidal. There were several neighbours went back from different villages over the years. All of them seem to full of fear. Even us went out receiving parcels or stray cats went by can trigger them. One of the time we were downstairs recycling our things, The neighbour thought we were damaging their water pipes.

And young people didn't all went away. There are actually many young people staying in this rural town.

Pierre's store sell genuine goods.

The worst things they experience are having a boring futureless job, loneliness, and without a girlfriend.

But at lease it makes you want to live in it, the people in there are so much better.

Stardew Valley. I don't know why I didn't get it the first time. Maybe it was the art style? Now it becomes my daily routine…

It's not enforced by my schools, but when I was little, speaking local languages at school was forbidden. It's getting better now, but at that time, only the official language was allowed.

Another rule was boys weren't allowed to wear longer hairs. If the hairline was below the ears, they would be asked to cut it shorter. From time to time, boys from my class were forced to cut their hair during classes with the company of a teacher.

But it's either this or hospital. Human body can't cool down in very hot and high humidity environments, for example 40 degrees and 90% humidity. My mother was sent to hospital due to heat stroke, AC is life-saving. It would be better if there were better ways.

Always humid heat, days above 35 degrees have increased a lot. Have to use an AC all summer long... Prayers to those who have to work outside.

I use medical petroleum jelly on my carbon steel stuffs to prevent them from rust. I think it works better than WD40, and I don't have to protect my hands while applying it.

And sometimes I mix it with bee wax as wood oil. I think it works.

Almost all smart things, except a smartphone, which sadly I can't avoid. Maybe I just don't want to be connected 24/7.
