I feel like I've become jaded by the internet. As a whole. I feel like I've oversaturated myself with it and I've grown to progressively hate what it's become.
I can't go anywhere without a comment section being filled with hateful arguments, idiots, teenagers and pretty much every stereotype in the book.
I can't even come to 4chan, possibly the only tolerable anonymous website on the internet without it being spewed full of memes, bait posting, shit posting and just all around cuntery.
Reddit is another shit hole. Completely full of social and regressive leftists. The voting system is stupid and it's full of recycled pun trains and shitty jokes.
Social media sites like Facebook, Instagram and Twitter are a cess pool of attention seekers, narcissist and egomaniacs. It's full of fake people trying to show how normal and happy they are. Only posting the highlights of their life. While hiding anything remotely bad or negative.
News websites are just a complete red flag.
I definitely feel like with the saturation, I've warped my own sense of reality. I look at things differently in the real world because of the sheer amount of time I've spent online. Not that it's anyone elses fault but mine.
I'm of the opinion since the iPhones inception in 2007 that it kind of doomed the internet as a thriving community. That might sound stupid but hear me out.
Think about it from 2007 and onwards. Smartphones were getting better. Tablets became a thing. Now think about it in 2016. Almost every single person you see in a civilised country has a smartphone or tablet. Whether it be an iPhone, or a Samsung, or what have you at least someone has one. Kids, teenagers, adults, even the very elderly.
Most of all who now have access to the internet to spew their garbage all over the place. I don't remember hating the internet this much nearly 10 years ago.
This is just how I've come to feel. I feel like maybe I should take some time away from my computer as a whole. I don't know.
>>53623187
I apologise if some of it sounded incoherent. I rushed it and completely maxed the character limit. I said most of what I was feeling anyway. And I don't really see it getting any better any time soon. I know it might come across as edgy, and I think the internet itself has progressed for the better, but the sheer amount of people using it has made me hate every minute of it.

>Headset requests are frowned upon.
I'd really wish you guys would recommend something decent though. I'm not expecting audiophile level sound quality but just something decent for around 100$ or less if possible
Thinking of getting Dad a pair of Sennheiser HD 555. Someone is selling them used for about $40 (Australia) in very good condition. I can't seem to find any decent budget open over ear comfortable headphones that Dad will use for gym and walks. In ear headphones are a no go sadly and the good takstar, superlux, samson etc have a month+ wait for delivery.
Good deal/idea?
>>53616615
The reason we usually suggest "headphone + separate mic" instead of headsets is because for the same amount of money you would spend on a headset you can get cheaper headphones and mics that are actually better both in sound quality and more durability, you don't really need to be an audiophile to see the benefits of this kind of deal.
Just fill the form and include a request for a cheap mic, you will be surprised by how easy the suggestions will come.

If there's a free driver, ofc the free one, but if not, you need to use the propietary.

If you're looking for purchase advice, READ THE BUYERS GUIDE FIRST. Then post, stating budget and requirements (e.g. size and performance).
Don't buy anything OTHER THAN T, X AND W/P SERIES if you want the Real ThinkPad Experience™
Recommended models:
T420 - 14", normal size
X220 - 12.5", lightweight
----
Why ThinkPad? (also applies to other business laptops)
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap.
>Excellent keyboards - tactile feel and quiet.
>Great durability: chassis uses a magnesium rollcage for structural integrity, with high quality plastic body panels.
>Utilitarian design: e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models.
>Docking stations that easily turns your laptop into a desktop.
>Easy to repair, upgrade and maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for every model. Spare parts are easy and cheap to obtain.
>The best trackpoint (that red thing in the middle of the keyboard). Great for those who type a lot or hate swiping their fingers all over a touchpad.
>Excellent GNU/Linux & *BSD support.
