but then again, a bit overkill for WoW probably :-)
yllona
ruaok: codetek seems okay, but won't work with growl
g0llum
that's what ruaok meant, i'm sure
SenRepus
its not for WoW ive been using headsets for years
ruaok
yllona: growl?
I've been using the codetek one, but it stopped working in 10.4.4
SenRepus
im tired of listening to the drone of the dry cleaners downstairs all day
and im tired of my ears getting sore from the pressure of this headset pressing on them to stay tight to my head
yllona
SenRepus: i can find good stereo/surround headphones, but have never found a decent set with built-in stereo mic. all the consumer headsets i've seen have mono microphones on the headsets
SenRepus
im tired of all the loud muffler assholes making it so i cant hear my shit
Shepard imagines turning on music and still hearing the vacuume cleaner... *looking at BrianG*
g0llum: that set looks nice and it wont snag my dreads and loose hairs. that's the worst
ruaok
hehehehehe
1. Your coworker has 8 body piercings and none are visible.
3. You take a bus and are shocked at two people carrying on a conversation in English.
5. You can't remember . . is pot illegal?
11. Unlike back home, the guy at 8:30 am at Starbucks wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses who looks like George Clooney really IS George Clooney.
16. It's barely sprinkling rain outside, so you leave for work an hour early to avoid all the weather-related accidents
19. The Terminator is your governor.
Sigh. All too true.
SenRepus
g0llum: are those earphones big enough to actually cover your ears completely?
this noise is starting to drive me insane
g0llum
yeah
yllona
yes, especially down south... celebrity avoidance is damn near impossible in certain parts of town
g0llum
they are quite huge, actually.
SenRepus
is the mic useable at least?
UserErr0r joined the channel
g0llum
definitely not for carrying around. (the amp box would be a nice goodie to carry on your belt, though) :-)
ruaok can tell, i've been using it for skyping
not too bad, i think
ruaok
ya work ok.
SenRepus
they wont leave my computer
g0llum
they are cool for games with surround
SenRepus puts in ear plugs
ruaok
I just ordered a bluetooth headset for my cell. I'm hopin to use it for skype too.
g0llum
really create a 3d feeling
SenRepus
yea thats why i started using headsets, great for playing MOHAA with, you can always tell where people are by their footsteps
my mic stopped working on this set
yllona
if anyone knows of headset with stereo mic, pls l et me know
Shepard turns the music louder so he doesn't have to hear the tv
BrianG
what do you need a stereo mic for?
SenRepus
i honestly dont know if mine is stereo but i wouldnt recommend this headset for anyone. ever. peice of shit.
yllona
cuz i talk to musicians and they bitch about mono. hurts their *sensitive* ears... no kidding
'
BrianG
wow. even if the mono signal is comeing out of both channels?
yllona
yep.
so i use a desktop stero mic, and headphones together
yea but i need something that covers up this neverending drone noise from downstairs

i use Sennheiser HD 202 and am very happy with it
but g0llum's 5.1 one looks kewl
yllona
sen i had that kind of noise for more than a year when the house behind my was being renovated. i never found anything that blocked the noise satisfactorily.
some ppl swear by those white noise generators, but the white noise is annoying too :)
SenRepus
whats a white noise generator?

0a machine that generates white noise :)
SenRepus
whats white noise :p
mustaqila
That hissing noise stuff
They use it in interrogation methods on some people
ojnkpjg
examples are the noise a fan or an AC might make
that kind of things
thing.
mustaqila
Or a blank VHS
SenRepus
ok, thats what i thought
TVs make noise no matter what
mustaqila nods
i dont mind fan noise
derGraph
If you filter out some frequencies, white noise might also sound like rain or a waterfall or wind or ...
mustaqila
Of course if you're being interrogated, under the Geneva Convention you're only obliged to divulge 4 items of information
ojnkpjg
yeah, they sell fancy machines that do that
money well-spent, no doubt
mustaqila
Some people have use for them
mkaythe1st has left the channel
They make for effective methods to make someone "crumble" when under pressure
Lock them in a lightless room, deprive them of their sense other than the white noise and force them to sit in pressure positions and they usually give in heh
Shepard
water drops do as well
ojnkpjg
a dark room with white noise sounds rather pleasant
the pressure positions not so much
derGraph
As far as I recall, white noise may also be used as a therapy against tinnitus. Maybe because the noise is more intense than the noise they always hear...
