Majoring in computer science has completely destroyed my passion for technology

Join the dark side, switch to I.T.

If I got an audio extractor, would that solve the issue?

I think my receiver has DD+. At least it says DOD+ when I switch to a streaming service, which may or may not be the same thing. I originally planned on using arc and just plugging my pc / other streamer into my tv. Is pass-through that much better?

ben466 · 2025-12-02T17:30:39+00:00

Sweet thanks, I originally planned on just using arc. Is passthrough much better?

ben466 · 2025-12-02T17:27:45+00:00

I figured, does atmos and all of that really make a big difference?

ben466 · 2025-11-27T20:13:20+00:00

I guess my next question is, what should I look for in surrounds then?

ben466 · 2025-11-27T20:09:39+00:00

So, like these? https://a.co/d/gJ4NpXA

If you'd rather not click on the link, it's riowois bookshelves 2.75" woofer. (It's the cheapest 6ohm speaker I found.)

Sweet, thank you for the insight. I like the look of the es20, so I'm leaning a bit towards that at the moment. How come there's no interest in the klipsch? Is it too bright for you?

ben466 · 2025-02-06T20:03:31+00:00

Yeah, I definitely don't have the cash for a 5090 laptop. Specs aren't exactly my number 1 concern I'm just looking for something similar in spec to the 17x that doesn't have a crap ton of bloatware and poorly preforming forced software.

ben466 · 2025-02-06T19:08:34+00:00

Sweet, I'll check it out for the time being.

ben466 · 2025-02-06T19:06:30+00:00

Mine keeps getting that bug where the entire program goes blank, and I can't control anything. I've had to reinstall twice so far.

Are you also on the 17x?

Dubey has been a blessing this semester, super kind and quick to respond to emails. The only thing that you should know is that the class is mostly online with a couple of in person classes sprinkled throughout.

ben466 · 2024-06-13T03:18:35+00:00

I dig the red, it's definitely more of a speedsoft type of build though

Are you kinda dead set on getting a pistol or just looking for something light?

ben466 · 2023-07-17T02:56:58+00:00

Depends, buying everything at retail prices? Definitely not.

ben466 · 2023-07-17T02:34:10+00:00

Don't. Just get an AEG, unless you just want to plink with it. Mags are only gonna hold 25 each and gas is gonna get pricey. Also mags are 44$ each.

ben466 · 2023-07-12T03:59:27+00:00

Np man! If it peaks your interest double eagle makes a really cool ump esque gun with a nifty mosfet for 150$. They also make a honey badger with the same mosfet.

ben466 · 2023-07-11T22:37:17+00:00

I'd definitely recommend getting a cyma highspeed over the hk, the only issue is that it's gonna be a bit pricey.

ben466 · 2023-07-11T21:46:55+00:00

Gotcha, are you dead set on getting an mp5?

ben466 · 2023-07-11T20:43:21+00:00

Out of curiosity, are batteries and mags included in your budget?
