Hey in case you haven’t got anything yet, I’ll throw in my few cents.

Mic wise, I would get a dedicated microphone. When buying a headset usually the money goes into the headphones and the mic is just an add-on. I have a mic that requires an actual audio interface to run but I’d get something like a blue yeti or a Audio Technica AT2020 (USB). If you want something clip on I’d look at the mod-mic, maybe a little pricey though.

Headphones wise, I can only really talk about what I use for gaming which is a pair of Beyerdynamic DT770s. They are closed back but are really nice all the same. A friend has a pair of DT990s which are open back so that may be more your thing.

Hope that helps.

Hi! Thanks for posting.

TL;DR Yes! Monitor speakers will be a huge step up. Never tried the PreSonus Eris range. Shop around a bit first to look at alternatives.

Going from built-in TV speakers to a dedicated system will be a huge improvement almost no matter what you get. Now the fact you are looking at monitor speakers in particular PreSonus’s range tells me you are looking for something for mixing/mastering.

With that in mind, I’ve never tried the PreSonus Eris range so I can’t comment on their quality. However, for a huge leap up (not in price), I would recommend KRK classic 5s or a pair of Focal Alpha 50s as a nicer starter to you audio production journey.

Shop around a bit. There are some really good guides out their for finding the correct studio monitors for you. Hope that helps!

In order of use:

• Firefox
• Nvim (with a slightly modified kickstart.nvim)
• SSH
• Minicom
• Python3
• Git
• CopyQ
• Curl
• Wget
• Tmux

Make it and they’ll cum

That’s the spirit!

I used to use Fairmail but now I’m strongly on the Canary Mail bandwagon

Signal, Firefox, ReadEra (best EBook reader for Android hands down)

Honourable mentions to OLauncher. Super clean UI that makes my phone less distracting and easy to use

Nice guide! Very easy to understand and works a treat. Stay awesome!

Only using labels and mirrors to talk to people.

Them: Hello

Me: Hello

Them: Is the report done for that thing I asked your yesterday?

Me: Thing you asked yesterday?

Them: Yeah, I cant remember what it was now

Me: You can’t remember?

Them: Yeah, I’ll go remind myself and get back to you

Brilliant productive conversation :)

Interesting question. Personally, I started with a text editor transitioned to vim, then to VSCode and now I’ve settled on a customised neovim install.

I’m a believer of PDE, that is personal development environment. It’s a concept one of the Devs of Neovim TJDeVries talks about.

In essence it’s the idea of building your development environment how you want it. Personally, Neovim allows me to do this. For example, I have a VSCode style debugger, incredibly fast searching with ripgrep, vim keyboard shortcuts and uses the same language servers as jetbrains products.

Stay awesome!

Sounds like a fun character to play. The next thing to concentrate on is what does this entity want with her? Why save her? Is it actually really weak and needed a body? Are these nightmares from people from her past lineage who are fighting to get her back? If so can we meet one of these characters in the campaign?

All things to ask your DM about. The story will just flow from there and I guarantee they will appreciate it. - A forever DM

I read that as “anything involving eating out of a shoe”. Good alternative to a bowl.

I have used Deddit on and off for years now and whilst I miss the communities and the sheer mass of useful/amusing information, I am happy we can start a new on something like this.
