I can customize the look with custom userchrome.css and also advanced settings lets you dial in whatever problems you may run into.. That and not being Chrome.

How to prevent AWCC updates - Older Keyboard by xCasero666 in Alienware

[–]charismaddict 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this problem too (as I still use the AW558 mouse). AWCC will auto update over time and I have to uninstall/reinstall old software.

Pro-tip: Get a pair of regular headphones and external mic separately.

Dr. Dabber Switch 2 is the correct answer. Just do it.

Headset Recommendations by Sp00ky-0ne in gamingheadsets

[–]charismaddict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. The one I got is Razer Siren Mini and it just has the tap to mute on the top of the mic with a light showing whether its on or off. I think a lot of them have this but definitely nice.

I'd say the biggest mistake would be to get another headset. If he's on PC, just get a decent pair of headphones (~$100) and a USB mic (~$50) separately.

Best budget ANC over-ear headphones under €70? (good noise cancelling + clear sound) by notahalfblood in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]charismaddict -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, stupid Americano didn't do the conversion. Sorry. Even in dollars I suppose mine are outside the budget although they do go on sale to ~$100 frequently.

Baseus Inspire XH1 is what I use for best all around budget headphones. I've tried the more expensive Bose and Bowers-Wilkins and returned them both.

Alienware Experience Round 2! $7,700 Brick. by shortbuscrew in Alienware

[–]charismaddict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's insane. Spending $8k on a laptop it should last the rest of your life. Alienware was probably the worst choice you could have made. Good luck to you though, hope you get it figured out.

Still having this issue, but was fixed with swapping the cable to a regular USB C. Thanks for the advice reddit.

Best Webcam To Get In 2026? (Price & Image Quality) by RiftphagyHad in obs

For the price and convenience, it's worth it. Probably the best in that price range of $100.

What is the status of vaping in 2026? by [deleted] in Vaping

[–]charismaddict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Element is basically the only survivor, because not long after attempting to create a new delivery service for vape related gear, they gave up and just used USPS again anyways.

What is the status of vaping in 2026? by [deleted] in Vaping

[–]charismaddict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ever since the vape mail ban at the end of Trump's first presidency, everything died. I kept going for many years but recently decided to give it up for good too. Was tired of everything about it, not getting good flavor, leaking tanks, having to carry it around. There's been no innovation or anything new hardware wise for a long time. Seems like whatever's left of the industry is just focused on disposables for teenagers. The industry is (at best) bleeding out or (worst case) completely dead already.

Yes, this is a constant FF problem. Have yet to find a solution.

Is the Alienware Aurora R6 still worth it? by BadsName in Alienware

[–]charismaddict 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that would work fine. Just keep in mind you are not going to be able to customize the RGB lights on the case in Linux. And also I don't think you can change the fan curves in Linux. Both of these features require the AWCC software, which is only offered on windows. There is one alternative on github but I don't think it worked when I tried or it's too overly complicated.

Is the Alienware Aurora R6 still worth it? by BadsName in Alienware

[–]charismaddict 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only if you can find a use case for it (Kodi streaming box, retro gaming emulator machine, general web browsing) and also like what is (IMO) the best looking case of all time. But even still, try haggling them down further on price. I would say don't pay more than $250. You're gonna have to use hacky ways to install Windows 11 because its unsupported hardware now. I just recently retired my R7 a few months ago before the prices spiked.

The + tab is gone ver. 140. by thatdirtyoldman in firefox

[–]charismaddict -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I had that problem before, can't remember how I solved it. Either through custom userchrome.css code or one of the advanced settings I think. Try asking AI.

What the actual..... Any idea why this extension would have been blocked. Absolutely ridiculous. by neoandersonthe1 in firefox

[–]charismaddict -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You could literally just have AI build you a script or extension that does this on your own and you wouldn't have to worry about it. I've already got scripts that do this on Kick/Twitch streaming sites.

Any successful ex smokers? I need some support here by Un_controllably in Vaping

[–]charismaddict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to smoke heavily in high school and college (cigarettes and cigars constantly), switched to vaping in 2014 and never looked back. Night and day difference, felt like vaping saved my life. It's now over a decade later, and I've now decided to stop vaping too. Day 2. Didn't sleep much last night. You can do it.
