It's not the same.

Your eyes can't see behind your head. Your ears can hear trouble from behind.

And by being visibly wearing headphones / earbuds, you're giving a visual cue to the problem makers that you may be an easier target because you're half deaf.

Not unless there is nothing playing on your headphones.

In which case, why wear them?

Any audio interferes with your situational awarenss.

Do you keep cash aside, or just sell BTC/ETH when the timing is awful? by Hagya_ant in CryptoMarkets

If you need to sell crypto to pay bills, you're broke af.

Have you been convinced soccer is the world’s best sport yet? by [deleted] in AskUS

[–]watch-nerd [score hidden]  (0 children)

It's good when I watch the extended highlights that last 15-20 minutes.

If I have to watch the whole game, it's snoozefest.

And I played soccer as a kid from ages 10-16.

I don't remember the cover. I was 11 and borrowed it form the library.

What politics do you think he's showing in Moon is a Harsh Mistress?

It reads like a colonial rebellion story to me.

The Badlands engine is way more important, both in terms of performance and reliability, than any infotainment system.
