  • I also have an Arctis 1- I paid ~$70 USD- and I’d recommend them as well. They’re very comfy, and the mesh pads mean they’re reasonably breathable. I have zero complaints with the battery life- I’ve never had it manage to die during a very solid day of use. Though if I forget to charge them overnight they usually die sometime the next day. And that’s after nearly 2 years of use- I bought them in June 2023.

    Interestingly, I’ve had a very different experience with the mute switch. I find it pretty stiff. Which I’d say is a good thing. The volume wheel next to it, however, is really easily moved. I occasionally turn the volume down accidentally just taking the headset on and off.

    Also: If you have a phone case the USB C dongle might not fit. I have to remove my case to use them with my phone. Not a huge deal, but worth mentioning.

    Maybe a plus, maybe not depending on your preferences, but I think they look normal. They’re not explicitly gamer-y, or anything. I wouldn’t feel embarrassed wearing them in public like I might some jagged RGB’d monstrosity.



  • It depends? I’ve honestly never heard of a firearm being irreparably broken- there’s not usually a ton of different parts involved like with a car so repairs are drastically similar.

    The amount of use and abuse a gun would need to be broken in some kind of semi-permanent way would be a lot. Generally if you’ve got the money for that amount of ammo, you’re going to have the money to have your gun- which you clearly like- repaired.

    If you really just want to get rid of it, though, from my understanding you can take it to any police station (probably call ahead showing up with a gun randomly is a bad idea) and they’ll dispose of it for you.

    If you’re asking about the mechanics of it, all you need to legally ‘destroy’ a firearm is an oxy/acetylene torch. The ATF has a nice little guide.


  • That title is definitely difficult to understand lol

    The Judge used the fact that he played D&D in the 80s when it was ‘well known’ that D&D would make you a satanist- which is obviously ridiculous- to refute that it’s ‘well known’ that kids are addicted to social media today.

    MR. GOLEMBIEWSKI: Well, Your Honor, it is well known in this country that kids are addicted to these platforms. This is a mental health —

    THE COURT: It was well known when I was growing up that I was going to become a Satanist because I played Dungeons & Dragons. Is that — I don’t know what really that means. You can say that there’s studies, Judge, and you can’t ignore expert reports that say X.
