My advice is to learn how to fix the broken connections. They don't short, though, they break. They wires themselves are coated and you can't short them easily. You would need to physically crush the plug housing to do that. The vast majority of problems are caused by breaks in the wire at the two ends. Most often inside the headphones, but sometimes at the plug.
It usually takes less time to fix a pair than it would take to drive to the store to buy new ones. And you can usually re-tie the stress-relief knot inside the phones to give the connections a little extra slack which prevents re-breaking. I usually fix a pair one time in the first couple years, and then they work normally for many years.
I assume that most brands that have multiple offerings will have options for both. Just as, some people buy smaller phones and some people buy bigger phones/phablets.
Apple is the outlier in not having product differentiation.
Its funny, you seem to think there is just this one type of costume that is always appropriate for exercise, and traditional exercise gear didn't work, and that only naked cavemen knew how to run before polyester?
BTW, not everybody who exercises in cotton is bothered by sweat, and certainly not everybody has problems with chafing. Generally chafing is caused by a mismatch between appropriate layers, rather than some sort of cosmic punishment for not wearing plastic.
In fact, there are lots of people who are snobby about exercise in a different direction than you are, and would laugh heartily at the very idea of sweat being a problem during exercise.
Because garments typically have pockets on the sides, and many headphones are shaped such that it makes the most sense to have the cord come out of the bottom of the earpiece. So that leaves the cord in the arm's arc.
So you have it exactly backwards; the cord isn't long enough to avoid being in the way of the arm motion. For this reason I run using a small COBY mp3 player with no screen that fits in a shirt pocket. Otherwise I'd have to choose between a back pocket, where I'd sit on it, or running the cord inside my shirt which is just not comfortable when moving a lot.
The last website I made, it was in C. Welcome to the IoT
This comment is ignorant.
That's one of the most ridiculous things you could say. How could I possibly be ignorant of the details of my work, and why would you know better what I did?
Yes, obviously, a decreasing but still important share of the market is using C (THAT'S THE POINT OF THE ARTICLE!)
No. That is not the point of the article at all. The point of the article is that searches for help on C that list themselves as being for the C language have decreased. Trust me, C programming requires much more careful understanding of details than you're showing. Are you sure you have enough knowledge to be talking about this one?
Yes, "private doctors" hired by the media are just media talking heads, they are not working as doctors while they're on the air. That is obvious.
Government officials are not medical researchers, and primarily their job is to promote industry when talking about anything that is part of the economy. That's not even bad, but it also isn't health research.
People are this stupid, and then they blame the researchers, who they ignored. The researchers and doctors were always saying the same thing, eats traditional less-processed foods as part of a balanced diet with an emphasis on fresh fruits and vegetables. I've seen it a thousand times, the media idiot asks the researcher, "So this means people should stop eating [whatever], right?" "No, people should not change their diet, the recommendations remain the same, eat a balanced traditional diet including lots of fresh fruits and vegetables!" "There we have it folks, [whatever] is horrible and you should stop eating it!" "No, that isn't what..." [cuts to commercial]
If you don't think in absolutes, then your comment has no value. The existence or possibility of alternatives changes nothing that I said.
You don't "need to use C for IoT," but you do need to use C for many specific microcontrollers that power IoT devices. Sure, you could just spend more money and get a device that can run more things. Sure, you can also use Lua on the ESPy. You don't get the same performance, though. How trivial it is to buy different hardware is irrelevant; smaller is cheaper, cheaper in this niche is going to mean that most of the tools are in C. The lack of supporting tools and libraries for your alternatives might cause them to even take longer to develop with!
You might find the Brandybrand(TM) that you mentioned to be the most interesting, but I would counter that a ~$30 device that does less than a $6 ESPy is not really a great example of alternatives being viable. They certainly can and will exist, but at the hobbyist level. That thing is competing with the raspberry pi for the "I want to do it myself but I don't know how to do it" market. That is not the same thing as the IoT market.
Actually, vitamin pills do not improve health outcomes, they harm them.
Micronutrients is mostly stuff you have to get from plants. Some of it is known, much of it isn't, but you can't get it from a pill, sorry.
If you want to increase your micronutrient intake a lot, the method is to use a masticating juicer. That way you can eat the micronutrients from more vegetables than would fit in your stomach in just a small glass of liquid. Health outcomes improve if you just do that; eating vitamin pills reduces your health in every metric where it causes a change!
The only time that eating vitamins is beneficial to health outcomes is when you have a measured shortage of a specific known nutrient and are unable to ingest it for some reason.
By all means, keep doing what you're doing. But if you think it is healthy, you're wrong. And probably nobody cares or wants to change your diet.
I made a tomato sauce with garden tomatoes and it was so strong and acidic that none of the processed-food-eaters could even keep it in their mouths; they would just spit it right out onto the plate!
Of course, people used to eating traditional foods really loved it. That's why Italian pizza has less sauce; you only need to smear it across the bread, you don't need a whole drippy water layer.
I had an awesome pizza in San Francisco at a little place on Haight Street, it was potato, garlic cloves, spinach, and feta, over a pesto sauce. Incredible!
I'm in a small city in the US, but all the more expensive pizza places in town serve at least 5 or 6 varieties of authentic Italian regional pizza variants.
People who eat at Processed Monoingredients R Us(TM) give themselves an inaccurate understanding of American food.
I buy frozen pizzas made in Italy and they're almost identical to hippy pizza in the US; a little bit of sauce, a little bit of cheese, vegetables are the main ingredient.
It is true that it doesn't resemble Chain Store Delivery Pizza, but then again, neither does higher quality American pizza.;)
The whole "pizza is American" meme is just an urban myth based on a no-true-Scotsman.
You're confusing the research with the reporting in the media.
Researchers said decades ago that some type of saturated fat was dangerous, but they weren't sure what kind yet, and said not to change your diet, and that the same dietary advice as always still applied; eat a balanced diet of mostly non-processed traditional foods.
Media reported that as "saturated fat is bad, stop eating butter, stop eating this, stop eating that, instead substitute this more-highly-processed stuff."
People who believed the media when they claimed they were being sciency then blame the science. People who read the science already knew the media was full of shit, and when the culprit was narrowed to transfat they were not at all surprised that the dietary advice of the researchers (traditional, minimally-processed foods) was shown to be best.
Here, the actual science is showing that a traditional diet is healthier than the modern processed diets. "Mediterranean diet" when used by researchers isn't talking about a fad diet or some cookbook with the word Mediterranean in the title, it's talking about the traditional diets of southern Europe.
This science has NOT vacillated. The reporting in the media has. Your mistake is obvious, and was warned against by the scientists all along.
traditional embedded devices that are DRVs and similar types of boxes generally had linux, but with IoT it is more normal to forgo even having an OS, or using something really lightweight like FreeRTOS. Even the proprietary SDKs are generally built on top of FreeRTOS or similar.
No surprise that you blame a category of things for whatever your beef is, and also don't know the details.

I have tried ironing with my cat, and I assure you this isn't a welcome change.
Petting the iron doesn't work that well either.
Been there, done that!
You can't consistently spew clickbait if you didn't activate your brain. I highly doubt this is from incompetence, or inattention.

If it has any weakness, it's that it doesn't offer an easy way to supply power.
Nonsense, you can use phantom power just fine with a 3.5mm jack. The only reason that it isn't usually done is that most quality mics have 1/4" jacks.
Some preamps have both 3.5mm and 1/4" jacks which are connected together and so if you turn on phantom power it is available on the 3.5mm.
This one had an exceptional turnaround time from buy to kill though. They usually at least run it long enough they can pretend it failed.
I assume they just buy this stuff because somebody needs an exit, and google is their ATM.

Maybe you should try some Horny Goat Weed drizzled in olive oil?
Epimedium alpinum (aka Bishop's Hat) is the variety native to the Mediterranean region.

So ... aphids?
If you've got a "sweet tooth," it is probably a lot healthier than the other snacks you could turn to!

A No True Scotsman where the Scots aren't Mediterranean enough, it was pretty good before you added that blether at the end about aliens.
Evidence has shown for a long time that it really doesn't matter what the protein source is, as long as you get complete protein.
With the exception of soy, which is not really a healthy staple unless fermented.
