My 10-year-old son wants permanent purple highlights in his hair. I was OK with it until I realized he'll have it for his school pictures in 2 weeks. I'm turning into my own father.
- I just dyed my the tips of my daughters hair purple. She's 11. Not a fan, but she loves it.mstocks
- do it. hair grows out and you'll be glad to have the pics laterGnash
- Let him take the pictures with the purple highlights and just photoshop it out on the ones you send to the family.zarkonite

I think I will never accept wireless earbuds
You carry a small pill organizer box together with your phone, you are in constant fear of losing one of them, you have to charge them. Why adding this level of micro managing into your life?

- I'm not an audiophile, so for me a €10 pair of cable sony earbuds is enoughdmay
- yep. plus nothing like creating an aura of bluetooth radio waves around your brain.shapesalad
- No audiophile uses airpods anyway. They sound like junk.monospaced
- What does Bennn the audiophile use?drgs
- I was kinda forced to use them after buying an iPhone 12. They broke 3 weeks ago and are now being fixed :/Chimp
- Got a decent pair then ended up returning them after starting to read about allowing bluetooth waves such close access to your brain.microkorg
- Fully with you and not because I'm too old.SimonFFM
- I'm still cables / headphones, and cheap ones too.********
- they're great to use at the gym.PioneerDJ303
- Bluetooth, yes. Earbuds, no. I have "bluetooth wired-earbuds" and I love them. I can hang them around my neck w/o fear of accidentally dropping outbezoar
- I can get close to 8 hours on a full chargebezoar
- Open Ear Headphones. Fuck Everyone Up.dibec
- I have open ear earbuds.
Don't like noise cancelling unless I'm at homepango - wait..... no.... they're called open back headphones.pango
- I converted. I would catch the cord on the kitchen cabinets/work tables and the like. Headphone ripped out of ear...sometimes phone ripped out of pocket.misterhow
- Great for the gym and running/hiking. That's really it.FNP14
- I don't even bother with expensive corded in-ear headphones any more - they seem to last me about a year, no matter how good or bad they are. $$$$Nairn
- They make phone calls so much more bearable for me. I can focus more on the call and plus hands free to pick my nose.stoplying
- I'm very tempted because of phone yanking reasons mentioned aboveFax_Benson
- I just have a pair for home. Nice being able top walk around, clean up, cook etc while the phone/laptop can stay put.inteliboy
- Wired... I've got a ton of earbuds they gave away from all the phones we've bought. Jvc earbuds or a pair of good headphones if I get exquisite at some point...OBBTKN
- headphones (in public) are bad for situational awareness.********
- pango. thank you. I must’ve had a stroke. Open back is definitely correct.dibec
- I'm old as fkc but i love wireless ear buds. Have wished these existed since day 1.desmo
- Bobo. That's why you get open back headphone.pango
- Even then, it's daft wearing them out and about (where I live)********
- You worry about appearance or safety?pango

- Again? Someone else posted this y'day, after I'd had it in my YT recommendations. We're all in the same bubble.Nairn

Need two belt settings. One for sitting - One for standing.
- Suspenders may be your answer. You are getting old after all.lemmy_k
- I only ever use one belt. last one lasted 20 years before dying last year. New one already has two distinct wear marks, two holes apart, for this exact reason.Nairn
- Put it in the nope threadlvl_13
- Split the difference. Poke another hole between the 2, and hope for the best.DRIFTMONKEY
- Yup. I discreetly open the top button, too sometimes.jagara

I have my laptop next to my desktop here as I work. Sometimes I get distracted on my desktop and see something I want to watch, but I prefer to do so on my laptop. So, instead of any kind of smart or integrated solution - heck, not even just signing into a Firefox account - I copy and paste the link into an ever-growing draft email (never to be sent to myself) on my web-based account and then save it, refresh the draft on my laptop and click on the the link to open there.
- I do thiscannonball1978
- This is what we need AR/Spatial Sensing for - I want to point at one screen, say 'copy', point at another computer and say 'paste' and have it load.Nairn
- Actually, if the tech is there to read my finger, i could just point and do a wee circle or something, then Harry Potter Shazam! the fucker onto the other puterNairn
- Your desktop is your work pc? I sometimes use google remote desktop to login onto my laptop at home (I leave it on) to view whatever websites I wantdrgs
- In chrome you can share tabs between devices, or at least it works between desktop and mobile: https://i.imgur.com/…drgs
- i. don't. do. chrome.
am. old. and. suspicious.Nairn - I know the feeling, old mandrgs
- https://www.logitech…dmay
- You can copy+paste cross-devices on Mac https://support.appl…nb
- Copy paste on Apple devices works 70%-ish of the time. Pasting into Notes app is the surest way to distribute across your devices.raf
- I send the actual email. This would be an upgrade. I’m 51.mort_
- does anyone has issues with the content copy-pasta from chrome to firefox and back? nothing works except plaintext
*oh and i'm using an url with a simple formsted - for the same reasons :)sted
- does firefox have this feature if you sign in? work between 3 macs, ipad and phone use this feature in chrome dailykingsteven
- it has shared bookmarks, which I assume would update in real time? if so, I'd just have a dump folder in there. Not like my bookmarks aren't already a dump...Nairn
