I’ve not tried it but if you’ve got some electrical contact cleaner you could spray some in, move it around a bit and see if it resets back to centre. Let it dry out for a bit before powering it on.

As far as I know a lot of controllers (joycons, DS5, etc.) Have the same issue as they all use the same internal part.

You could possibly order one and have a go at replacing it. Seems a lot for something defective pretty much right out the box though.

Definitely

Fair point, I also make a point of only buying ones that have a removable cable for that reason.

I did also recently, as a geeky project, get some Mackie mc-100 headphones and mod them to take a removable 3.5mm cable.

I have too many pairs of headphones and have been buying more wired ones rather than Bluetooth as they just don’t last as long (they are convenient, I’ll admit).

The 3.5mm Jack is just so handy to have ratger than a dongle (SD card for storing all the music helps too).

Picked one with a funny name and the admin seemed quite relaxed but it appears to have gone offline permanently.

Sausage party.

Nice. It’s a bit different from my usual listening. Plus my Spanish is very very basic.

Another that came up on the generator with a sort of similar vibe was Getz/Gilberto, more light jazz but you might like it (if you don’t already know it).

Buena Vista Social Club. It came up on the 1001AlbumsGenerator. It’s probably the album I’ve revisited the most.

Just thought I’d come back to share this if you haven’t already seen it. They’re at it again!

Yeah, that’s true. Pretty much every messenger has that issue, Signal, Telegram, etc. Ideally there would be an open standard like email, SMS and you could choose your preferred app and have cross messaging and group chats.

RIM made a similar play when they kept BBM closed to their phones and it backfired but Apple seem to have the opposite effect from keeping it all in house.

I think they are maybe referring to Apple’s reluctance to integrate with RCS.
