I suppose it means the game that had the largest impact on the gaming industry and/or society in general. For example, almost all games have red represent health and blue represent mana/magic because diablo was super popular and everyone copied it.

I’m actually considering buying larger aux headphones, taking them apart, and installing this inside so that the USB port shows on the outside. It is a little more of a project than I want, but then I could just use a USB c extension cable to connect to whatever.

Thanks, I will definitely check this out, koss looks like just the right kind of manufacturer.

Wonderful! Thanks for the list, this is exactly what I’m looking for.

Thanks for the link, that does look good.

I agree, the usb-c connection is th3bmost prone to damage. However, my real problem with the adapter is that there is a stiff part added to the cable in the worst place possible for a pocket. I constantly feel uneasy about the stresses put on the USB poet of the phone by this extra bit of cable with the AUX jack, that’s what I want to get rid of.

The adapter you linked partially solves this problem, but it’s also longer and bulkier than “just” a USB plug attached to a cable.

I’m being nitpicky about it, but only because it really is a very important detail to me

I have, I refuse to give any data or money to Alphabet, Apple, Meta, etc. as far as I can help it.

But thanks anyway.

Thanks for the tip. I hope I can find a cable that has such a module, then finding the headphones themselves should be relatively easy.

I’m fine with rabbit holes, I’m an engineer, that’s kinda what we do all day anyway.

I’m in the EU, and thanks, linsoul looks like a good shop to search.

Thanks! This will probably be the best option for me.

I tried to usw this for my home folder in my daily driver, but it just did not work for me.

I’m now trying out the PARA system, and Iike it better.

I should also add I use obsidian.md for basically everything having to do with files/folders/organization, so I do have all sorts of tags, auto-updated tables, etc. So a simpler file structure suits me better.

Thank you kind soul, that really brightened up my day.

Not the whole government, but some of it 100% yes.

I don’t see anything that could be considered a “Youth bad” statement in that comment. It’s a complex issue, influenced by a myriad of factors.

For example, I could dissasemle and reassemble my first PC without any prior knowledge. I had to learn to use DOS to navigate the OS and get things done. I got a book from the library about it, and spent hours upon hours just learning about how the file structure, commands, programs, external media, etc. worked before I could do anything remotely useful.

Today a PC/tablet/phone is a black box, you have to actively WANT to tinker in order to learn such about how they work. And most big tech companies try to punish you for so much as trying to replace a battery yourself.

I suspect you are projecting some personal feelings onto a stranger’s comment.

I noticed I didn’t even finish my previous comment, oops.

I do understand the physics, I work in engineering. I also looked at the spell desctiption from 5e D&D, it reduces the weight by 8, so the reduced weight would still be about 1-2kg. Not exactly a bullet yet.

Well in that case, the reverse would also be true. So my barbarian can throw a cannonball at someone. How about if the mage readys the shrink spell to target the cannonball just as it leaves my hand? Conservation of energy would dictate that:

Decisions like these are what makes TTRPGs so fun, and I enjos every minute of these sort ot discussions.

I love how everyone is discussing the physics of a cannonball gun DIY setup in a game where magic can instantly teleport people or turn a person into a huge dragon.

I’m not complaining, I just find it amusing.

Ouch. I feel that comment on many levels.

Welcome to Europe! I moved to Germany almost 20 years ago, and holy batflaps am I happy about that choice.

I can only agree. The Democrats are just as bound to the funding of the billionaires as the Republicans, they just have to hide it better in order to have a chance to win something.

The Roman Empire fell slowly, and now it’s our turn. I only hope that true socialism can emerge from the ashes.
