I feel like the pieces should be 3d as well.

Do you mean Calibre?

That is honestly impressive. I can confidently say I’ve only owned one wired headset for a decade, and it’s the one I use for gaming so it never leaves my office.

Everything else has either broken, or been lost. Though I fully admit, serviceable wireless buds would be a thing of beauty. IIRC there are people out there actively working on the problem (other than the companies explicitly aiming for them to be a consumable forever.)

I’ve owned three Bluetooth headsets in total. The first I lost, the second is now my wife’s, and the third I still use. I wouldn’t call them disposable, but I’ll agree they are easier to lose.

Something a wired set of anything can’t give me is absolute freedom to move my head and walk away from my phone. I will never willingly go back to wired for anything other than gaming.

They did have a dongle for it. Annoying, but not insurmountable by any means.

Honestly? For all the bitching when Apple first removed it, I hadent and haven’t used wired headphones for a long while. I had Bluetooth headphones long before then.

… what?

Yeah… as the son of smokers, everyone can smell the cigs on you. There’s really no escaping it.

You realize lip and gum cancer are caused by smoking as well? Not to mention teeth and skin yellowing? There are more but you get my point.

There are so many different issues caused by so many different things in cigarettes. Smoke in the lungs is just part of the problem.

For the very well known health concerns of smoking?

Self hosting is fine, assuming you have sane policies in place. Policies like “don’t play in prod” and “don’t let the intern touch prod.” 🤪

It has interesting uses but I agree it’s more than a teeny bit dangerous. https://getamp.sh/ uses it to simplify the install command.

Tracking can be cost prohibitive. Within the same country is usually fine, but what if you’re shipping overseas?

Your options then become “eat the cost” cutting into a likely already thin margin, or “charge to the customer” which discourages buyers.

It depends what you are looking for. Your description is actually kinda confusing.

Do you want something to allow the install of games from a self hosted server? Then you’re looking for https://gamevau.lt

Do you want “one launcher to rule them all” that allows for local aggregation of all available games from all platforms? Then you’re looking for https://playnite.link

Do you want a front end for game servers? Then you’re looking for https://pterodactyl.io or https://cubecoders.com/AMP

Do you want something else? Give us a little more info and we can likely point you in the right direction.

It’s entirely configurable, and up to the building management. While there is likely a “local default” that doesn’t mean it can’t be changed.

I mean, master race absolutely has a meaning. That meaning is independent of nazi use, just as the swastika is a symbol outside of nazi use.

People complaining about the name are up there with people who think the git branch master is racist. If someone doesn’t want to take a few seconds to understand context, and intends to be offended from the start, they are going to find a reason to be offended.

I mean… it’s not wrong.

The data does get pulled, but only if it is “old.” If you just pulled 0.5 seconds ago, you don’t even need to check.

While this works for most things, you will run into issues with certain software which automatically assume that no TLD means the provided address is incorrect.
