"textContent": "I wrote some time ago about the benefits of wired headphones, including the fairly obvious fact that they are harder to lose. Well, I bought some AirPods 4 NC and had been getting along fine until I was on holiday over the Christmas period, opened the case and found the left AirPod missing. Find my stuff says it is at home, but hasn’t been seen for about a week. I have resorted to walking around the house like some sort of dullard with my phone waving it about like I’m in Star Trek assessing a new planet with my Tricorder. So do I replace it for £69, or wait out and see if it turns up? We all know what is going to happen – replace it and magically it will reappear. Perhaps I could trick it into thinking it has been replaced, then it will show itself? Moral of the story, listen to your own advice – or at least your own blog posts.",
