I use cheap Chinese in-ear headphones for my workouts. They usually last reasonably. As well as the new cellphone I mentioned previously, it was also time for new earphones. These came with a Chinese attempt at English whose rare bursts of coherency were clearly inaccurate but a bit of guessing had them usefully paired with my phone, presenting via Bluetooth® as TWS-2.

This model of headphones follows the current fashion for touch-sensitive buttons so they are another device I will have more difficulty controlling. For example, at my desk upstairs the volume button on my amplifier appears to be on my hand's way past the computer's monitor's fancy power switch. Our washing machine's fancy start button is on the way from its program-setting knob to its program-adjusting buttons. I pine for the days when devices offered mechanically operated inputs that I would activate only intentionally.

I hate things I can turn on accidentally! Fortunately I own very little that is incredibly up-to-date, so it doesn't happen often.
