That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.

For now it’ll also include “AI”-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.

What headsets are linux gamers using? (discuss.tchncs.de)

I made the mistake of believing some dumb guide online that recommended the Razer BlackShark v2 Pro for Linux. Literally the volume control is broken out of the box lol.

I just want a wireless headset. For listening to audio. And a mic. Don't care for fancy features. Apparently too much to ask for a linux user.

What are y'all using and how is it working for you?

Yeah lesson learned lol. I figured, I don't need the fancy features. Turns out volume control is a fancy feature. And I'm not even talking about the volume wheel on the headphones. I'm saying, adjusting my system volume barely affects the headphone volume.
