  • Just requested a refund from VALVe.

    Really wish i knew about this before buying the game, had a lot of fun, but i’m not going back to Windows just so i can play battlebit, really regret recommending this game to my friends now…

    And for anyone having even a sliver of hope, the devs don’t care about us, we only make about 1,6% of Battlebit’s Player Count and they have already stated that they will implement it in their game and thats non-negotiable.

    In the future they might implement linux support again, but as of now, i cannot in good faith recommend a game that restricts players choices and has an intrusive AC like Faceit.




  • It’s easier to install when using DualBoot.

    EndeavourOS is just what I needed when I started to DualBoot with windows, besides being just easier to install, some games I play still require Windows, like most dx12 games since they’re currently broken due to some driver error in the latest Nvidia drivers.

    I love Arch and can’t see myself using anything but it, but I don’t have the patience to do a manual install every other week or so because I got bored or am to lazy to actually fix my system, especially while dualbooting.





  • You can never go wrong with these, tbh. Specially the Sennheisers. I haven’t checked the AudezeMM100 reviews yet so I can’t comment on them. Just make sure you audition them first just to make sure they fit your taste

    Unfortunately testing them isn’t really possible for me, so I’m mostly going off waht I’ve read online. As t the moment in pretty much set on getting the Beyers, because I’ve read that they have a better soundstage and I like treble.

    The MM100s by audeze, as far as I know, are set to start shipping this month, if they’re any good, I’ll consider getting them if I’m able to, but, again, I’ll most likely go with the Beyers since I’ve dreamed about having them since I was in my first year of highlschool.

    Definitely valid concern. I have 3 hifimans and I’m lucky they don’t have issues yet. But I’ve seen a lot of people having issues with theirs. I hope Hifiman fixes their QC.

    Honestly, I’d buy a HiFiMan if I lived in either europe or the USA, but since I live in Brasil and I, most of the times anyways, buy my headphones through AliExpress, buying anything HiFiMan is a huge gamble since I can’t RMA them easily.

    Don’t worry about the K240 - I haven’t met anyone who likes them lmao.

    At least you like it, I think… Unless you’re some kind of masochist - and maybe you are given that you also spend, what I assume is, a lot of money on headphones, dacs and amps for the definitely real difference in sound that isn’t in our minds and totally justifies the amount of money we’ve sunk into this hobby.


  • When I was first buying a headphone for PC use about 3-4 years ago, I was considering the AKG240s, but in the end, being the dunce I am, I bought a pair of HyperX Cloud Alpha IIs, I kinda regret it now because they’re nowhere near as good as my S12s or my friend’s SHP9500, but I feel that, in the end, it’s a good(bad) thing I bought them because it started my headphone addiction. But I’d still like to have a pair of K240s :(

    I was actually considering going for either the Sundaras or the Edition XS for my next pair of headphones, but I got scared away by the infamous HiFiMan QC. For now I’m waiting to see if I’ll be able to purchase the AudezeMM100 here in Brasil or not, if I’m not able to, I’m probably sticking with the HD600s or the DT1990 Pro, altough I’m aware that the treble can be a bit too sharp on Beyers, but that shouldn’t be a problem since, if it’s really that sharp, I can just use eq to tone a bit the treble.
