  • I understand what you mean, but that’s not really true.

    This is the Television equivalent of “Video Games cause kids to be violent”. If the kid was mentally unstable and needed help without the game, the game is the least of the parents’ worries.

    Same here. If the person was incapable of following rules and abiding by basic decency standards, then they will be reckless with or without such shows. Classic example: lots of small city residents of India have never seen Top Gear or any such show. Yet the quality of driving is terrible. I say this as a native resident of India.

    Reason: driving tests are not enforced well enough.




  • So, here’s the thing…

    Speeding is definitely the culprit. But accidents due to speeding have been an issue long before shows like Top Gear ever happened.

    The issue is terrible drivers. Fast cars or Horse Carriages, doesn’t matter.

    I agree with your remark about keeping cars that can do more than the speed limit off the public roads, but sadly that won’t solve accidents due to speeding. Because that’s just one of the reasons.

    I’ll be honest… I bought a Poco F4 because the value for money it offered was amazing. Plus, I could unlock the bootloader and shift to a custom ROM whenever I wanted (literally as soon as I could lol. Hate MiUI).

    This phone doesn’t have a headphone jack, but I was willing to make the jump since my general use of headphones is not as much as earphones. My ears get sweaty or scratchy after more than an hour straight of earphones, and around the same for headphones.

    As a result, my overall usage is limited. So, when I got my TWS (paid ₹2000 for an okay pair, no dual device pairing, okayish build quality for the case and an okayish connection. Sound was good tho.)

    My situation meant I didn’t really use them as much, although they go for almost 4hrs straight. And if I put them in the case, they go for weeks without needing a charge (case has a built-in battery of 1200mAh). So, whenever I think I need the case to charge I just set it up overnight. The only sad part is it doesn’t have dual device pairing. I use my laptop and phone together and I’d kill for this feature, but my budget is thin atm.

    I know it’s not everybody’s case, but this is my case. And while I miss the jack, I don’t notice the lack of it. Audio quality is good enough for me. The wires were honestly the worst part of my wired experience anyway.
