So I turn Bluetooth on with the headphones plugged into the lightning port and sure enough my phone offers to "pair" my wired headphones. "See," they all say in Spanish, like I must be the dumbest person in the world.

With a little back and forth I realize that they don't even conceptually know what bluetooth is, while I have actually programmed for the bluetooth stack before. I was submitting low-level bugs to Ericsson back in the early 2000's! Yet somehow, I with my computer science degree, am wrong, and they, having no idea what bluetooth even is, are right.

:soycry: "Guys, h-have a-a degree in Bluetooth, I'm a big boy and I know how it works..."

:marseymariachi: Lol, you're r-slurred, amigo.

It's why nerds deserve to be bullied. Ninety percent of technerd strags would commit suicide if they had to step outside their narrowly-defined use case to use their product IRL.
