Because expensive headphones tend to have drivers with higher impedance, meaning they produce less volume at the same current versus a lower impedance set.

That’s true for wired headphones, at least. For anything wireless, they have a secondary amplifier not in your phone, so then the phone really really has no idea.

Well now… TIL!

Fair – what I meant was more about the Teams binary kind of not being needed at all (you can use the web version without it). So having a Linux binary explicitly just seems a little weird, marketing aside.

I think MS assumes no one will use it. But having Linux builds of some of their software enhances their “MS loves Linux” marketing.

Teams is another example.

Kicad is up there with the paid options for electronic schematic drafting / PCB design. I don’t use a lot of KDE stuff since I also don’t use KDE, but Kicad is absolutely essential for me.

He’s obviously working for Big 586.

Wait, are you saying adding new trade war strain on an already troubled economy wasn’t the right call???!

Disagree hard. Diet and Zero are sweeter than full fat coke. It comes out more with alcohol.

So. Many. Choices. Not sure I can pick one.

It’s kind of fascinating: the Steam Deck is the only device I can think of with a “halo effect” that doesn’t involve giving a company more money: the ecosystem it pulls you into is an open one, and you don’t even have to have purchased a Deck to jump in based on the idea alone.

I’ve really liked it. I’ve gone back and forth between Cosmic and their old Pop Shell on Gnome. I find the tiling system on Cosmic to be much better, especially on a multi monitor setup.

I also agree with another commenter that the file browser kind of sucks, but that’s a minor complaint right now.

Damn, you’d really think these bozos would have learned to read a room by now, you know?

Mandrake. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. But I did get it installed.

He seems pretty short for a messiah

Seppuku is a task

I’m not a Mac person at all, but I always, always loved the Pismo PowerBooks.

Sadly I think I waited too long. I can’t really justify one at all.

I love it.

Though some people will certainly take it wrong. The “iPhone is more expensive because it’s better” people will happily pay their Windows tax, assuming they’re even in the market for a Lenovo.

I’m sure all the “now we are gonna manufacture iPhones in the US!” conservatives will raise their displeasure with this any day now.

Something something about showing connections between points in a circle… the chocolate starfish of life.
