  • What headsets are linux gamers using?

    Jump

  • I have never liked headsets. I wear glasses so over the ear headsets aren't comfortable for me. Not to mention, headsets are often overpriced and dont sound as good as a dedicated mic with headphones IMO, but I also make music so audio is a bit more important to me. I also just like having separate devices so that if something breaks, I don't have to throw out a whole device.

    xlr mic paired with audio interface and whatever flavor of headphones you want is my go to.

    I use a mxl 770 mic with a focusrite 2i2 interface and I use shure se215-K in ear monitors for headphones. I also use this setup for making music or for talking with friends over discord.

    Focusrite works great on Linux on I haven't had any issues with this setup. This is a more expensive upfront but I haven't bought a new mic or headphones in years so I think it works out to be more cost effective over time.

    For a wireless setup, if you're OK with your mic being wired, you could get a decent USB mic and pair that with a pair of wireless headphones.

  • How to get into linux and stay with linux?

    Jump

  • I think you should first figure out why you aren't sticking with Linux and go from there.

    I just use kubuntu at this point. It works as well as works and feels how I want it to. I don't need anything super fancy or customizable. Kubuntu hits that sweet spot for me.

  • Quick! I need a chili recipe. What would you add to a pound of hamburger, diced jalapenos, chili powder and bloody mary mix?

    Jump

  • Agreed. Lentils can also be good if you wanna make it last longer but if you're going all traditional chilli, its all beans dawg. Kidney beans, pinto and black beans are all good choices.

  • California’s New Bill Requires DOJ-Approved 3D Printers That Report on Themselves

    Jump

  • Wow a great bill to stop people from making weapons. Y'all gonna ban pipes and steel ball bearings next?

    The fuck is our country coming to man.

  • Games you fell out of love with.

    Jump

  • For me personally, fallout 4 requires mods to be enjoyable. I enjoyed skyrim without mods but fallout 4 did a terrible job with dialogue options which is always the first mod I add.

    Other things like the unofficial patch, better settlement building mods, etc. just help make the game playable.

  • Timberborn - 1.0 release date and lore trailer

    Jump

  • Ive seen the mods out there but nothing does quite what I'd like. I do appreciate that people are making mdos and that the devs are keeping modding in mind though.

  • Timberborn - 1.0 release date and lore trailer

    Jump

  • I really enjoy timberborn, but the building mechanics and the amount of blocks, decorations, and buildings leave something to be desired for me.

    The overall gameplay is fun, but I'd really like more blocks and decorations to use as everything you build in this game looks very much the same through different playthroughs.

    Also there needs to be something else to do with science after you unlock everything. Upgrades for beavers or something.

  • Social gatherings have been... different since I switched.

    Jump

  • I had issues with it back in 2022 when trying a few different distros. I had 3 monitors of all the same size and I had weird visual glitches when trying to use the ui to set refresh rate or resolution.

    Now though? Haven't had any issues since i switched to Linux as my daily driver in 2024.

  • Can you use Linux today without the terminal?

    Jump

  • I'd say 90% of usage can be done without the terminal especially if you just use Linux to browse the web or check email or other things that are mundane.

    Anything past that, there is a good chance you'll have to use the terminal. That said, I think its easier than ever with lots of people making the switch and asking questions on Lemmy or other forums.

  • If you have one, how much do you pay for a domain name? Any cheap registrar recommendations?

    Jump

  • I use cloudflare for both my domains. $17 or so each.

    Honestly you can spend as little as a couple bucks if you dont care about a name. I like cloudflare but almost any registrar is fine as long as you pay for the domain.

  • Suggestions for Linux PDF Editor and E-sign

    Jump

  • I was also gonna say Okular. It does everything I need it to do and more. Digital signing when I used it recently was pretty simple.

  • Hytale running on Linux

    Jump

  • Is hytale fun so far?

  • Why does everyone here think they're autistic or ADHD? The memes all describe normal human foibles.

    Jump

  • Typically the difference is that people with autism and or ADHD experience things more frequently or more intensely than others.

    Yes, all these things are normal for most folks, but how often and the severity of these symptoms are diffrent.

    For example, I have ADHD, and one of the symptoms of that is I'm easily distracted. For most people, this would sound fairly normal, but even when its something important, or something I want to do, my brain is moving on to a billion other things all at once rather than focusing on the task at hand. Medication helps immensely with this, but it still happens even on my meds at times. That is not normal.

    Also the autism spectrum is a spectrum for a reason. Some people appear to cope better than others and some can't cope at all. Masking is normal but for someone with autism it can be exhausting because some people with autism never stop masking. They are constantly aware they aren't "normal" and it stresses them out.

    Its hard to understand these kinds of feelings if you're Neurotypical. Our brains work differently from others, which might sound like "I'm special" but honestly, I'd rather not have ADHD. Shit sucks dude. I fucking hate not being able to do things like a normal person. Its a curse.

    People ive met with ADHD or autism, its just nice to be seen and feel like were understood which is why these memes are often posted or are popular with those crowds.

  • How Are You Guys Handling This?

    Jump

  • Older and or used hardware is gonna be a place to start for CPU and GPU. Used dell optiplex can get you most of the way there, then buy a decent GPU when you can. Just make sure it fits in the case and the PSU that comes with the optiplex can handle the power draw. I'd recommend a new PSU though. Dont buy used for PSU or storage is the best advice I can give.

    Optiplex are not gonna get you top of the line performance or anything but it'll be a lot better than nothing and you can always use it for something else later like a nas, a server, home theater PC, etc.

  • Windows 11’s 2025 problems are getting impossible to ignore

    Jump

  • Yup was gonna say the same thing.

    They can be removed with third party tools but they shouldn't be there in the first place.

  • Kid makes his own Family Tracking App

    Jump

  • This kids videos are so cool. I found him randomly one day while on YouTube and wow. Very impressive.

  • Do any of you actually call your cats by their names?

    Jump

  • I call my cat Sydney by a few names. Mr kitty, Mr meow, or buddy.

    But in will call him by his name every once in a while.

  • Which I love about Lemmy. I truly am among friends.

  • Sometimes I forget how awesome Linux Gaming is

    Jump

  • Every os has issues man. Linux just swaps some issues for others.

    I'd much rather deal with Linux issues than windows, but that's just me.
