I seriously doubt the audio quality of AirPods Pro are any good from an audiophile perspective. I have no way to test without buying them but I have heard both the new macbook pro 16 laptop speakers and the Sony WH-1000XM3 noise cancelling headphones described an incredible sounding by the same people who say Airpods Pro sound amazing. I happen to own both and.... the MBP sounds like my grammas alarm clock radio at best (I'd give it a 2.5/10) and the Sonys are maybe a 7/10. They are decent but way too boomy and the Q in the EQ controls provided in the app don't provide enough granularity to fix it. I feel like we've really devalued certain words in the past decade or so. Everyone speaks like they work for marketing now.

> I feel like we've really devalued certain words in the past decade or so. For sure. > Everyone speaks like they work for marketing now. Maybe we're so inundated that we've internalized it? A semi-related thing I've noticed: when people talk about movies now, it's never "oh I liked it, it was neat" or "it was sappy." Everybody talks about the cinematography this, the character arcs that, did you see that tracking shot?? It's weird to see the "inside baseball" aspects of movies/music/storytelling/etc creep into random conversations.
