The 90s kid in me yearns for a phone with Fm radio, headphone jack, IR blaster, stylus, memory card slot, slide out keyboard and one of those click on projectors the Motorola phones used to have. I would call it the Donatello and it would be radical.
No thanks. I listened to radio the other day (not in my car) and it was all ads and a shortened version of a song so they can do more ads.
I didn’t realize radio got so bad.
In 2017, Mexico passed regulation that required all smartphones with FM chips to enable them
Now I’ve got in my head “I’m on a Mexican, radio…”
Now I’ve got in my head “I’m on a Mexican, radio…”
The real question is, are you a racist, if you enjoy that song?
Am I?
Lol I don’t know, I was honestly asking.
…The song about listening to foreign radio stations by Wall of Voodoo?
Yes, I believe so.
I would think not, but these days, with hypersensitivity about racial prejudice I wasn’t sure, which is why I was asking.
That song, and “Illegal Alien” by Genesis, are the two that come to mind.
My phone has an FM radio.
I’ve listened to it in long international flights just to see how things change.
other than that it serves no purpose whatsoever.
I suppose it could be useful in an emergency but I’d bet just having cell seryqould fair better.
