    MP3 players really went the way of the calculator, from being expensive, heavy, dedicated devices to becoming a gimmicks in watches, pens and whatever to just being an app.

      I'm 100% in the minority here but I will always defend having an actual calculator on hand, at least if you're the kind of person that regularly needs a graphing calculator. (I'm a student, sue me) Even old calculators are always a better experience than any app like Desmos. Maybe I just have the same passion for being able to punch numbers that Dank has for critical listening

    9:40 that was the point. They put one of those, just so you could not blow the headphones. Making big grain moves before someone on the internet decides to screw them. Jokes aside, would it really be able to fit a 3.5mm one? It does look like it's mini jack is already against the lipo cell and the 3.5 might go over it. Or, if it fits, be too close in case someone stabs hard the headphone jack, dislodging it and puncturing the cell.

      I guess that recording classes via a pen that is used in the same time to transcribe the notes is a terrible idea. You'll probably end up with shitty quality of recording with a lot sounds of scratches from transciribing.
