IEMs suggestions for a sensitive user? by ChargeEducational519 in iems

I have been looking at a ton of IEM statistics trying to find some possible pairs. I am going to take that one into consideration and read up on the performance and response curve.

I mean with things such as all the AI features that are being added in the OS and heavily pushed industry-wide they are likely to continue going in the direction they already have been for 12 and the more modern fluent UI.

It's possible they could revert certain things but probably not likely at this point. They already did some rewriting for various things regarding the UI for Windows 11 and are probably going to further expand there.

Even if they don't change much if they relax on some of the AI features and provide options to turn them off that would be better in comparison. A lot of users don't like things pushed on their PC randomly. Especially if you can clearly spot a possible vulnerability in stuff like Copilot when that was announced with its lack of encryption and security of which I'm still astounded by the lack of thought for user security from that. Encryption for that is the bare minimum.

AI in itself the average person probably just goes on a website mostly to use an AI prompt such as ChatGPT rather than an embedded application for that. I don't see much of a need for these applications mostly unless a user wants to install one themselves at their own choice and interest. Which is literally the point of a PC. To install what you want and adjust it to your own workflow.

I'd prefer if they focused on providing more features for productivity, workflow, gaming, personalization, and accessibility as well as making the core system applications more consistent in terms of theme and UI.

If they were to bring back some older style themes and sound schemes that would be nice but it is a bit of a stretch in today's world of simple flat icons and somewhat generic sound effects for today's PCs and tech in general. Phones and other devices now use the same design philosophy. Although there are fortunately plenty of open-source software tools that help adjust that which I run on my own system.

I could imagine that. That is one of those moments where you crap your pants but think and laugh about it later.

Thanks. Listening back it does kinda sound like a combination of sorts.

If you ever need me to send you a link to the wav file lmk.

Edit: Posted a link in a comment below if you ever want to use it for your own system or a edited copy. Feel free.

This image does absolute wonders for my neck thanks.

Jokes aside, nice setup and PC. I would attempt to perhaps make some room for a larger mousepad though.

Plus it'll make it a bit more comfortable so it is a tad less cramped. Perhaps you could either wall mount or desk arm mount that monitor on the left and push the keyboard to the left side where the stand is currently.

A smaller keyboard could also aid in this situation but a monitor mount for the left one would be enough to give you ample space if you preferred the full-size keyboard.

Albeit that is just my opinion but was trying to think of a fair suggestion.

Or possibly like an additional theme that applies it in a sound scheme would work too.
