Good to know. Thanks for the heads up. I'm still on the tether.

Exactly. You set up the virtual sink for 5.1 output and make pipewire convolute the signal with a suitable impulse response to turn it into a stereo signal that sounds like it's coming from the correct direction. And yes, most games will output surround sound, given the option.

A few of things I'd look out for:

• Bluetooth protocol. Many Bluetooth headsets switch to a low-bandwidth but full-duplex mode when used as a headset. As a result you can hear and be heard at the same time, but at abysmal quality. Think old phone. You want a headset that supports at least AptX, which supports full-duplex communication at reasonable bandwidth and thus quality.
• Spatial audio. Don't bother! It's a non-issue that you can replicate in software, with the help of pipewire. I wouldn't spend money on it.
• I'd stay away from proprietary 2.4GHz connectors and stick with plain Bluetooth, as that doesn't require a specialised driver that possibly requires support from the vendor.

So between daily coffee and weekly cannabis consumption I should be well protected. Not to mention the vaccination. So why did I catch that shit last year??

People who think it didn't do a good job? In this instance, for example, it neglected to mention how the divers were affected, something I'd consider essential to a summary of this article.
It also started mentioning the Chinese vessel without any introduction, something it does quite frequently and that does, in my opinion, hamper the understandability of the text.

Of course they do. It's what they live for. All their focus is on the afterlife. Their actual life is just an annoyance that comes first.

So much nomenclature in tech is watered down and obfuscated because we let marketing monkeys make decisions.

With the Fairphone you get more than just a replaceable battery. You get replaceable nearly everything. Also they do their best to ethically source the materials. In terms of ROMs there is also Iodé, also based on LOS, and if you go with a FP4 instead Ubuntu Touch.

I don't care for those, either.

If I learned anything from Luffy it's that you can call any ship a boat 😁

By closing your account.

charge.

You can have loads of imaginary numbers in EE.

It was a deliberate choice of words intended to reflect and emphasise what they might think of the average voter. But good looking out.

that is a very low effort and bad faith argument for what she is arguing for

Imagine rhetorically competent fascists. That's terrifying!
The common rabble can't see through their flimsy lies as is. They'd be completely out of their depth if republicans took even just an introductory class to discussion and rhetorics.

I'd low-key like to learn a Scottish accent. But I doubt it would ever be good.

That's probably the flipside of polling-based updates.

Take a look at Simplex.

Completely agree. Ran Arch for about 10 years and had like three breakages that were all my fault (didn't read news before a manual intervention. Once the battery died). But every time I could fix that by booting the current live image. No data loss.

It's comparatively easy to not break things if you're like ten years behind. 😉 But sure, Debian takes pride in its stability. I just like having recent versions of everything.
