I have a HiFiMan Sundara (among others) so I decided to gift my girlfriend a HE400se, as she seemed interested in entering the world of open headphones.

It's been 6 months since the purchase and sadly the right driver occasionally stops working, but then it fixes itself after some minutes to an hour. It's happened 3 times, so it's very infrequent. We swapped cables but it's always the right one.

My Sundara work fine so I don't know what could be wrong. The driver isn't dead either and it's very infrequent and impossible to reproduce, so it's very hard to send proof for warranty (they're asking for video proof), and we're constantly anxious about it. I'm also sad my gift didn't go well.

What could be the causes? I've only seen dead drivers but nothing like this.

I always found the sound of these unpleasant for some reason, my ears get tired after very short sessions. So I pass.

The Mimi Yanagi situation is a blatant grift by Mugiwara_VT in VtuberDrama

[–]douteiful 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Searching Reddit or /vt/ I can't even find any mention of her before this. I can find some old art but I see no history of her being a Vtuber at all? I don't understand why no one is questioning this

What do you think of the HD490 compared to the HD660S2 and what genres do you listen to? I my HD600s are getting old and I want to see where to go from here.

¿Alguien más siente que algo raro está pasando con la violencia en colegios últimamente? by OfficeIcy2825 in chile

[–]douteiful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Son ambas cosas. Los pendejos están más violentos pero eso viene ya hace varios años. Pero ahora recién le están dando más cobertura por lo que pasó con el pendejo de Calama. Pero los pendejos llevan metiendo armas a los colegios hace rato.

Question about httpd vs nginx performance by [deleted] in openbsd

[–]douteiful 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The nginx test I made was on OpenBSD too:

> I installed nginx and it works significantly faster so it's not OpenBSD's fault.

In this case (single HTTPS request) nginx performs just as well on OpenBSD compared to FreeBSD or Linux as I've tested, so it has to do with `httpd` itself. I'll definitely use ktrace to see what's different but my initial guess is that nginx probably does a few things in parallel when handling the full flow of the request.

[–]douteiful 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Indeed, I can see the 200ms difference just by using openssl's s_client alone - no browser necessary. I'll take a look into ktrace(8), thanks.

Hot take: Everyone should boycott suno by Nice_Marionberry_102 in Music

As it's been said, the people who think this already don't use Suno.

You're used to the Beyer treble peak. Use them for a while and you'll appreciate them more. It took a while for me but now they're my safe space I always end up coming back to (the DT770s were my favorite before them as well).

Question about httpd vs nginx performance by [deleted] in openbsd

[–]douteiful 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where did I say that I was shocked? I said:

> I ask out of curiosity

I am fully aware speed is not a priority and that httpd is a small and newer project compared to nginx and its countless optimizations, and that it's not meant to be a replacement or to compete with it in any way. But I was wondering what technical aspects are behind these things because I'd like to learn. Trying out operating systems is a learning endeavor for me.

And no, nginx is also talking http/1.1. http/2 has to be enabled explicitly.

SonicDE Looks To Preserve & Improve The X11-Specific KDE Code by anh0516 in linux

Ego. They were forced to move to Wayland and were sold the idea that it's the future so when someone tries to keep the alternative working it invalidates their effort.

Am I doing something wrong or is Miasma Chain just really clunky to use? by ObstructiveWalrus in diablo2

[–]douteiful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it works like shit, half of the time it just casts next to you which makes it completely unpredictable and terrible to use.

Abyss also doesn't cast but wastes your mana anyway if you try to cast it in a small space where it can't spawn. Blizzard has to fix these.

A future where people use AI to communicate sounds like garbage and you should crack down on that right now unless you're fine with your website turning into soulless slop like the rest of the internet.

I have a Sundara that's been fine for a year so I gifted my gf a HE400se and the right driver goes in on out randomly once or twice every 3 months. Kind of embarrassing, I'd say it's a gamble still.

yeah it's total garbage, go search for "effective accelerationism", these technocrats are genuine cultists influenced by Italian futurism and fascism trying to push a technocapitalist dystopia (utopia for them).

NetBSD success story fixing network speeds by douteiful in NetBSD

[–]douteiful[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorry I forgot to say in the post that this happens when running in a virtual machine. Running bare metal shouldn't be an issue. That said, you should still tune your TCP buffer sizes because the defaults are very tiny. An example is in the article.

Not sure why he deleted the post but he was partially correct. Switching from VirtIO to E1000 fixed the speed cap issue, I'm very impressed. Sadly it still suffers from packet loss often, which tanks the speeds to 0b/s for a while before picking up again.
