A fellow alt texter!!! The blind community appreciates you. (I'm not blind, just an ally)

Welcome and enjoy your stay! Feel free to DM for any questions about Lemmy or Federation in general!
I have a pair of Senheiser HD6xx from Drop.com. It's basically a pair of HD600s with slightly cheaper plastic and bare bones packaging. They have the exact same drivers as the 600s. These cans have been famous for decades with good reason, as they give the perfect balance of low, mid, and high end.
They're a bit pricey at around $230, and you'll also need a great amplifier to power it. You can always go with a decent $99 desktop amp or you can shell out $300 on a high quality DAC+AMP. I have the Audient ID14, and everything sounds FANTASTIC. I can turn up the music super loud and still have head room.
TLDR; Drop.com Senheiser HD6xx with an Audient i14 to power them. Overkill for casual listening, perfect value for audiophiles.
Just use a cloudflare tunnel. It's free and can be used on pretty much any network that sends and receives data.
As a UI/UX designer myself (hobbyist, to be clear), I really like it.
There seems to be this notion in the homebrew/FOSS/Linux community that "wasted space" is always non-preferable. I can see this being true for some people, but I feel like a lot of people are band wagoning this opinion.
It's pretty universally known and accepted in the design community that padding is extremely important when it comes to helping your brain read and separate content. And to be fair, most non-tech people prefer space and padding in their applications to make things easier to understand.
I can be entirely off base here, but TLDR: I like padding and it's literally beneficial to helping your brain understand the layout of what you're looking at better.
This looks to be the beginning of a trend to pull out of Reddit, and I am excited to watch it crash and burn.
All nintendo has to do is make a higher resolution OLED display, a bigger battery, and a modern day chip. Heck, they can even go Snapdragon.
I suggest we create a list of who is bringing what to the party, that way we'll know who's bringing what. I'll start
I will bring the f*ck /u/spez shot glasses!
Reddit? Never heard of it.
I'm kinda in the same boat. Super into tech and computers and know my way around Windows, Mac, and a fair understanding of Debian based Linux... But self hosting still holds many questions to me.
Today, i just discovered that you can use CloudFlare VPN tunneling to basically "convert" a local ISP provided IP directly to a public IP without the need for a dedicated IP. I'm still at work but I'll probably start tinkering with it once I get home. Would love to host Mastodon and Lemmy at home instead of paying a monthly fee just for some light to moderate social media use.
I also want to run some home automation stuff as well as a few static html websites. I know currently what is possible and the basic understanding of how it works, I just need more time to practice!
Feel free to hit me up in DMs if you have any questions or want to exchange notes. Seems like we're both in a similar place rn.
The reason why I can't recommend YouTube music is that it uses audio from videos instead of playing the studio versions of the tracks. The fact that it makes me listen to those silly audio parts in music videos while I'm trying to listen to a studio release is terrible in my opinion, and I couldn't figure out a way to hide those results from search entirely. Does anybody know if they've fixed this?
