I would recommend threading your headphones through a clip. That way, when you get up, instead of pulling at a bad angle on your port, it'll pull straight out and avoid any damage to the headphones or your port.

Obviously this heavily depends on how your audio port on your computer is oriented (I have a DAC sitting towards the back of my desk), but if you do have a orientation where it's possible, it's a headphone and port saver

My solution is 2 magnets. One taped on desks corner one to cord. Cord gets lifted from floor and if I get away from computer while leaving headset on, I feel slight snag but magnet gives away first.

Now I actually own wireless headset but still use this for my charging cord.
