Humor is one of the few things that push away the ever encroaching reality of death yeah...
"out vehicle just blew up, least we didn't spill the Red Bulls"
That will never not make me laugh
IEDs are no excuse for a party foul, sir
Sach and Merc, opinions on 'the whitest kids u know'
Some have told me that making fun of that dead kid is awful. Well I say I'm still alive to laugh and they're not, so who needs the joke more?

Rip Trevor
dunno what that is
a show im guessing
Truth. Doesn't mean you don't respect him.
if people didnt make jokes about me when i died id be sad
Well I mean...I kinda don't, considering he purposefully traumatized his friend and then bitched out.
Still lowkey resent him lol
Yeah an comedy skit show
They got some really great clips
I get what motivates it, and that part sucks ass ,no matter who it is.
No disrespect there for sure
I'll never forget the time we were parked on top of a culvert with an IED in it for like a solid hour while doing a night op. The photo in my banner is actually from that moment cuz we took a piss break. We were rolling with a SF and a EOD team and EOD wrongly said the area was cleaned but gave the wrong AO and later rolled through as we were leaving and found it. We didn't stop joking about that for a long time. Actually made a patch for it. Memories.
lol nice
Fkn EOD
Pea stop hiding
I saw you typing
Oh the D is for Disposal? We thought it meant Ditch and get beer
probably lol
I have nothing of value to say. Let me hide!
Man
You're bad at hiding it seems
It's because I'm thicc af. Hard to hide behind a tree
Try a bush next time
my man might need a mountain to hide his dump truck
Or yo mama
thicc and green
gotem
Thicc and juicy
Does mint ice cream count?
It's 3 am which means it's time for Amogus impostor hulk epic mom 3am impostor challenge charlie charlie among cremate 24 hr challenge slime diy tutorial
What's wrong with you
Where do I begin
Mint ice cream is good don't bash
...are you having a stroke
should we call EMS
I think so
I'm sorry but I will not tolerate mint ice cream and mint chocolate
why teh fuck not pea
Because it's horrible!
Holy fuck a deer just scared the absolute shit out of me and my dog
If I wanted to taste mint I would chew a gum or a candy but not chocolate or ice cream
U odd. Choco mint cream is good
ur also a vegetal, so i can see your aversion to eating your own kind pea
plantcannibalism
Pea pods are a actually fruit since they come from flowers and contain seeds
this is facts
I'm a legume
my mom always used to get mint ice cream and i always thought it was an abomination
Cheeseborg ice cream is best
No please I don't want to remember that vid

That's all I ever need to be. 😄
You can't eat all of me
Did school just get out somewhere?
Starting to wonder that myself.
Not me. But my dog probably can
Mere mortals!
Dogs usually wont stop eating if you dont stop them. It's fascinating to watch.
Why was my thing deleted
Ive seen a lab eat an entire loaf of bread in like a minute flat
Dogs eating👀
What a pig. This guy apparently eats Nutella for fun. I guess it's his mud.

meme shitposting.
"not a meme dumb channel"
"Where my memes go?"
i dont see a rule against that also since there is no meme room
It's literally in the description
It's very literally in this channel's description.
who read channels descriptions
I've no clue what he's saying and I think that makes it better. Knowing would be scary
"that won't stop me because I cant read"
People who get banned, apparently.
But also i dont see a meme room
That's because there isnt one.
There isn't one
Rip el bozo
It's on different discord servers
That's not funny. I can't read and I don't know how to install discord so that's very offensive to me.
Every fkn discord has a shitpost channel. God forbid there not be one hwre
What's discord?
bye im leaving this discrd
Bye.
I don't know if they just not moderate them?
Buh byeee.
how are I am type on here

Don't you love when people join a very specific discord server related to very specific thing just to shitpost
I'm a real boy I swore there was a Pinocchio emoji but I'm wrong ig so pretend that's here
I looked and didn't see the one where he cooked and ate raw chicken anymore.
Mayonnaise is his favorite instrument
my favourite is his raw burger in the microwave
wouldnt be surprised if he deleted it
Maybe I missed it. Almost looked like he was deleting videos

Lmao yeah. Really no wonder he had two strokes.
I didn't think he was really making videos anymore because of that but guess he's still goin
i have little doubt most of his subs are from schadenfreude rubberneckers
no its worse than that
"taco bell mexican pizza" already isnt food
Blows my mind he has actual brand deals n his own bbq sauce
and he is somehow making it worse
Im happy
@brazen basalt
i used to do keto for my migraines and everything tasted so bland
yike

it's actually games involving literal squids this time
jfc jack, you have 5 lbs of cheese for a pie dish-sized abomination
The last game was the squid game…
I can't wait to eat cheese and mayonnaise pie 🤤
Now it’s crab game time
This video is the embodiment of drunken late night food when you're in college and only have shit in the fridge and no patience or knowledge of how to actually cook
YES
THATS what this shit is
he's the fucking Waffle House of cooking shows but somehow worse for your health
Hace you ever taken a bite out of a cheese block…
The chunks of meat just dumped on there with sauce like no fucks
slice it up
no
you animal
Waffle house moment xD
Cheese is good but also I am lack toast and toddler ants so while it tastes good, it doesn't feel good
Stomach is pain
I love cheese. But there's a limit
cheese makes my tummy hurt but i still eat it
Hm
some dairy products are worth the pain
Blue cheese. Mmmm
chocolate milk being the other one
Lacktoastandtoddlerants gang

why am i doing this to myself
Suffer
also the fucking title, "keto taco bell mexican pizza"
uses tortillas that arent no carb, but low carb. that is not fucking keto, jack
When I was 4 I decided that cheese shouldn't be blue so because of that I said that I didn't like blue cheese even tho I didn't try it and still to this day I've not tried it bc 4 year old me said so
keto is dumb anyway but like
its so easy to not do, just
no carbs
and that is clearly not a man losing weight from keto
"it's keto"
Devours a massively unhealthy meal full of fat and salt
maybe hes just starting
ok no its jack why do i think hes doing keto
this has been going on for weeks.
i just
have so many mean words
It's like when my sister eats two little Caesars pizzas and pats herself on the back because she downed it with a diet 2 liter of soda
ugh
mood
Can I beat her with a baguette
that'd be justified
Please do. She's like 300lbs now. Meanwhile I eat a cheeseburger and feel like shit and I'm 160ish
Can't even carry her new kid around
yea but youre not sedentary
Broccoli dipped in warm cheese sauce. Yes or no
my ass is and I try to eat according to that XD
tiny trees are fine if theyre fresh
Yeah... I talk about cheeseborgs a lot but my diet is actually mostly rice.
Yes in cheese sauce tho
"cheese sauce" can mean so many things
The cheese sauce for pasta
the what
"cheese" sauce.
You never had spaghetti in cheese sauce?
it is trash
Hydrogenated oil
tf is "spaghetti in cheese sauce"
That's Mac n cheese
akito the type to put cheese wiz on his broccoli
Broccoli in cheese is dope
Whats cheese wiz
idk man. most i usually get on broc is maybe a drizzle of olive oil and some garlic or some shit
oh is cheese wiz a canada thing
Man
I love fresh broccoli
Never heard of cheese wiz
I just love broccoli I'll eat that shit raw and plain
its basically just plastic thats colored orange and called cheese
No, deff seen it in the states
Cheese wiz is def in America
Thats the most american bullshit ive ever heard of
Just shit canned "cheese"
Plastic orange called cheese
In a fucking spray can
Thats like staple fucking American
It's like orange plastic paste
I meant the can
I've only ever seen it in a can
oh?
But either way gross af
People love cheese so much they eat cheese flavored plastic instead of cheese
ive never seen the can
America. Where else in the world
Never seen a jar
i dont think keto works if he makes a serving for 5, but for one
Lmfao exactly.

Chop it up. Deep fry it. Sprinkle powdered sugar on it. Put oil on it. On the pan. Grill it. Add the spices and theres your dinner
Oh God he's doing his own brine n shit
I somehow managed to lose my 1.25 liter bottle of water I've been drinking on for the last hour. I've only been in bed for this hour. What the hell did I do? The bottle is huge.
it would not surprise me if he does lol
Man
Lazy man's pickles?! It takes no effort to make correct good pickles wtf
how tf
how can making pickles get any lazier
4 hours in a fridge
for fucks sake
Pickles are already lazy you do a a tiny bit of work and the it just sits there ðŸ˜
how do i report a hate crime against food
"so we are going to be using 1.5 pounds of salt per jar "
Overnight!!!!! Lmfao
yes, "eyeball" 4tbsp of vinegar. amazing.
he cant be serious
he's overfilling this
When I used to live in a cult we would pickle a ton of shit. Always amazing. We left it in a store room for a long ass time.
WHAT is it going into a pot for
Pickled the bulk of veggies we had left that we didn't feed to the chickens
Lmao
mmmm bpa pickles
I like how he starts with a table full of really nice looking ingredients and somehow fucks it all up
right?! like how even...its so easy
anyone wanna play later?
you almost have to TRY to fuck it up
"i tried it after an hour and it wasnt ready yet"
It looks like he's storing piss for safe keeping
Ya don't fuckin say
sache nerd
My mom used to use plastic spatulas that melted. Fkn had to buy her proper cookware. Why do people do these things.
he's just eating wet cucumbers.
Lmao basically
so mrs sach has informed me that brine actually does boil
Don't get me wrong, cucumbers are good. But that's not a pickle
Those ingredients had so much potential
Yes. You boil brine. But it needs to be jarred for vastly longer
His proportions suck ass too
Exactly
Just let it sit for an hour it'll be fine
In the cult we'd let ours go for 1-3 months
brined the heck outta those
p i k e l
If the brine is properly prepared and the jars are properly cleaned and sterilized they will last a long ass time. So the longer the better to an extent
true yea
Did he even sterilize his jars?
I get it seems we're glossing over the whole "cult" thing but...pickles
If it didn't go Waco, couldnt have been all bad 🤔
I wasn't the slightest bit phased by the cult, I was just enjoying bashing this man for his shitty "pickles"
wait a minute
he has a vid from 7 years ago, of this same exact thing
he did it more than once
It was hella nice tbh. 500 acres of land in the remote country side. Was a massive college campus the group bought and was renovating. We grew our own food, every helped cook, clean, build. Meditation, spiritual shit. Good stuff. But it was kinda cultish.
I lived there for free in exchange for doing photography work for them and building their website
can see how, yea. closed community is gonna get culty a bit, just how people are
we're all tribal an shit etc
Indeed
and hey
free pickle
damn, nice

ngredients
3 1/2 ounces sea salt (about 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon)
6 cloves of garlic
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
8 cups bottled water
1 1/2 pound...
i cant believe that recent one wasnt a first attempt
You all have fun talking about pickle cults. I'm gonna gonna go sleep and have nightmares of Jack.
Good night 🥒😎
Redo?!
H
yea just think, the "redo" is from some other failed attempt
and then we got the recent one XD
gotta admit im impressed, didnt think it was possible to fuck up pickles that many times
Sachus Verrellitas hows the man?
horrified
Oh God it's from 7 years ago lmfao
FOUR FUCKING DAYS, JACK??
Those look like such good cucumbers. I'd rather just bake em or make em into a pasta or something
kek
"wanna hear that pop? listen carefully!"
-no pop, jar not sealed, the site is contaminated
"....aw, no pop"
How come?
read up. this channel is full of why
ive gotta see the failed one, relative to this one
Jack shows you how to make pickles. Join his cooking community at:
http://cookingwithjack.net
here is the recipe:
14 pickling cucumbers
1 gallon of water
1 cup kosher salt or sea salt
1 16 oz. bag of pickling seasoning
Simmer seasoning and salt for 90 minutes. Pour into glass jar with cucumbers. Let set over night in refrigerator. Open and eat....
11 years ago, this one
Something tells me he didn't make the bbq sauce he sells on his site
thinking the same
Ah i see, ye real hungover from too much cocktail hours here @_@
How many times has this man tried making pickles
too many times to account for this much failure
Omg he uses the WHOLE bag of seasoning
....why
That massive fucking bag
wait where does it start, im still in his damned ads
still adds more salt
ah here we are
1lb of seasoning, right
...oh no
no thats
thats not for one batch, jack
or at least not one batch in 3 jars XD
idk what hes making but its not brine
okay so i didnt just miss that part then XD
"they look like pickles but they're just cucumbers"
No. Fucking. Shit
that jar is what started jenkem rumors isnt it
My God it's shit brown water
"ya know what, I'm not a fan"
Yeah. Maybe don't use a lb of fucking seasoning and a massive cup of salt
i could screencap that jar and tell someone it's sewage and i dont think theyd question it
oooh i know what im gonna do
"so that's hour you pickle it"
No. It's not lmfao
gonna clip that jar, send it to mrs sach, say are these real pickles
if she kills me, it will be justified
He fed them to his son!!!!!
had to eat a few real pickles to palette cleanse there
Honestly would love a pickle right about now
I'm too drunk to actually walk to the gas station tho
oof
It's like 3am anyways lmao
Just went for a 5 mile walk while drinking a hard lemonade lol
yknow ill say this much for jack
Kay?
Yeah. He's a better cook than Kay
Still cooks raw food. But Kay is like.... A whole different tier
like his cooking is odd but more funny than sad. kay just...worries me
The microwave burger and raw chicken was pretty bad tho
But he's dedicated, I'll give him that
Kay's Cooking is more a depressing look into mental illness
Jack is just kinda dumb but dedicated
yea :/
Jack's like a guy who likes to watch cooking shows and aspired to be a hit TV chef but just..... Isn't.
heart's in the right place (when it's working)
Yeah. Can't fault him for that. Most of us don't have even half the amount of dedication he does
A decade of getting hate and being on the worst cooks compilations but he's still going despite it all. Doesn't care. Most woulda quit
he says this without a shred of irony, i love his enthusiasm
Lmao
His bbw sauce is similar, "best sauce you'll ever taste"
*bbq. Wtf my phone correct bbq to bbw
the only vid of his i genuinely dont like past a certain point is that community cook-off one. it's painfully obvious the people there are headpatting him :/
Yeahhhh ...
Everyone knew which one was his and probably wanted nothing to do with it too
then again, feeding year-old brisket to kids, i gotta wonder
heh wouldnt doubt it
i dont like kids. loud, weird, chaotic balls of life-destroying noise. but i wouldnt poison them, jack
It's dry aged. You just don't understand
so dry it's practically crisp with frost!
Had he left the meat out. It may have been salvageable
Well, and the entire pint of beer
lol
oh no. im watching "lazy chicken nuggets"
first thing i see is canned chicken, and i immediately get "poor in barrio" flashbacks XD
the food bank gave us that canned chicken. it had a white label, with the block fonted words: whole chicken in black.
it was technically chicken, to their credit
I member having to go to a food bank.... Oh man. Childhood
good? no. edible? barely. toxic? possibly. but it was chicken
You can buy an entire rotisserie chicken for just a few bucks tho. Canned chicken is so bleh.
dont even know where that white label shit comes from and that scares me XD
yea srsly
When big companies need to get rid of Scraps they probably bin it in a lower tier product to sell to government, prisons, and food banks.
wouldnt doubt it
oh my god
this "keto" lazy chicken nugget recipe was going kinda sorta normal for awhile
but then half a pound of shredded cheese
a whole block of cream cheese
what looked like a min. 8oz of shredded mozzarella
alright im back time to finish the pickle video
We're beyond pickles now

the thing he creates in this video almost made me throw up
Lol yeah. I've seen that. That's rough af
isnt sure his sriracha sauce is still good
so he has to taste it
btw it has colors no sriracha should ever have
Aw yes. I taste test all my rotting food
its the only way to be sure 🤣
ew wthufhsdifashbpfibg
im not surprised he likes this. theyre chicken "breaded" in cheese.
He turned off the comments! Least he didn't remove that like the others
yea that's the stuff, cap
Uhhhhh
looks like its started to separate
its ok tho, he neutralized it with mayo
Thiccracha
I'd have to be literally dying to eat those
Ok. It's 3 am and my dog is snoring up a storm. So imma go and join her and have nightmares of pickles and canned chicken
You might be laughing at me all you want now but my friend fries chicken breasts, puts them in a jar with some sort of solution and leaves them for couple days. It does taste amazing ngl
Ew
How do you know how chicken marinated in piss tastes like? 🤨🤨🤨
Mf I just saw mr beans car
That's still not correct, it's closer but not there

paul I beg you this must be harassment
with frogs...

is it true that the index cable can break easily? i saw it in a video. if so, how can i prevent this from happening?
It's not that easy. I've had mine for 2 years, accidentally stepped on the cable and had it tug a few times, still rock solid. Knuckles controllers on the other hand.....
she’d just get angry when you don’t stay up with her 
oh yeah borderlands 3 is free on epicgames

BL3 kind of got annoying after awhile.

I've been wanting to get it
#ot Borderlands night? 
"ot" as in "ocarina of time"?
ah yes love it when a game is updating and literally everything you do is slow down
browsers loading slow
75gb according to here.
too big to download in a day 
Use a rate limiter for the application.
If it doesn't provide it them self, there is third party options
where do i go do that
Which game client is that?
oh that is epicgames launcher
That has a traffic limiter in it somewhere
i can say that when steam updates a game, it doesn't slowdown my google chrome tho so its odd
A isn't B
alright i'll look into it
Neither does "i think" have anything to do with statistics.
Nor is this a VRChat channel.

I'd stay up with her but only bc I can't sleep anyways 😪
hm...
borderlands is now mine
incredibly it also runs on mac apparently lol
and proton says it works fine in linux
free is free
hm... if someones 16 and can do what they want... as a free soul...
They get adopted!
wouldnt they lose all their old freedom and gotta do new things if the new parent is bad-

Test, play with me
play what
Borderlands.
sure, but not right now it's 3am

@sick bloom don do you have any good headphones/headset suggestions for pc gaming?
mine broke just now so i can no longer use any headset for pc gaming or for discord
Well any requirements like a mic etc?
i prefer the mic to be more flexible
If you've got the budget, the Astro A40s are a sweet package
how does it look like
Oh i prefer flexible mic, but i won't doubt your preference
How flexible you thinking?
kinda like a string ish
Ooohhhh, more like the steelseries arctis pro wireless
Ahhh, so the A40 is flexible, you can eat it if you'd like, but not as flexible as the goosenecks
really? oh
If I had my mic I'd take a pic and show you but I use a boom mic
Often cheap goosenneck's lose stiffness on many use which eventually leads to first always dropping down a bot on movement till eventually not holding.
Talk to your doctor if that happens to you
boom arm is where it's at
Never going back to a headset mic... uhh, index excluded
If you have a shelf next to yo, a over head static install can also be nice. 
I have a behringer c-1 and I love it
I almost went the behringer route, but opted for the rode podmic
and for vr I use snab ep-101m
bleh
hey they are going for good couple years now
bleh
you're bleh
Me with my akg k371
well excuse me for not using over hundreds of dollars for a pc headset
i just think that alot of those expensive headsets are also as broken as the cheap ones
I've been watching too much youtube, I read AKG as AK Guy
I have those too but mine are falling apart...
they did not last very long at all, pretty disappointed
mine are still going strong
which one is it don, can i see
Eh you wouldnt want them fooner, they're like proper studio headphones which are expensive and have no mic
how can you play without mics omgosh
well technically streamers buy their own headset separately and buys a mic stand
people that buy headsets without mics use extra microphones
yeah thats what i thought
can confirm
I bought the hyper x cloud2 because it has a mic that you can take off when you don't need it, which is most of the time, or put it back on the headset when I need it, for example when using it for vr (because wmr doesn't have built in audio)
skissue
I should probably use my logitech g935 for vr though
wireless headset with a decent mic and good enough sounds
I use my open back Sennheisers with a lapel mic
Logitech is usually pretty good bang for buck
Taking it off vs just sliding it up is kinda a downgrade tho. 
on my old headset you could fold it up, and it sometimes got in the way (even if very rarely)
so completely detaching it is good, atleast for me
How
sometimes the cable tangled up on it (don't ask what weird motions I did to achieve that)
Detachable also means easily replaceable
And losable
If you lose your headset mic, clean your desk, lol
My lapel mic was 9$ on Amazon and sounds great with a dead cat on it
or when I'm trying to rest my head on my arm while wearing a headset, I couldn't do that with the flip-up mic because it was in the way
now with the detachable, I can rest my head on my arm
I'm lazy 
Actually, we're missing the true solution here
Reject headset mics and join the boom gang
I once mounted a røde video mic pro onto the front of my Rift S. Sounded super nice.
Rode works magic for bang for buck in that prosumer/smb audio space
Yeah. Only like 200$
"only" 
My 9$ lapel mic sounds like 80% as good though lmao
WHAT
Rode & Bang for the Buck is very far
Rode is expensive AF
What
It's not bad gear, but it's not Bang for the Buck
Compared to like... proper professional audio gear, it's very cheap
Yeah. I cared more about the form factor and weight since it was mounted on my D800E when I did photography for the government
Since it was light I just said fuck it and mounted it to my headset later lol
Rode is professional audio gearn, and no it ain't very cheap at all
Sure, it's cheaper then a Neumann, duh. But that's not really hard. 
There's much more expensive ones, but also cheaper ones.
Rode is okay, but definitely already in the pay for brand range and not a bang for the buck brand at all.

I disagree, my work has shown me otherwise, haha, but that's ok
Again, there is much more expensive, yes.
But also less expensive bang for the buck stuff
The cheaper stuff i found always had some wicked drawbacks, where rode got nearly to the higher-end of quality for 50% or less of the cost
I dunno what gear you tried and which products you tried to cross compare 
To be honest I couldn't tell you either, AV was just part of my job and it was all a blur, lol
Like a NT USB (150€) can be rivaled with most decent 30-50€ condensers + 50€ Interface
And the interface route will also give you more options / benefits like a probably better output device then you have ATM 
It's still not a bad mic or price deal
But Bang for the buck be somewhere else. 
Hmmm, it's dawning on me that a lot of rode's lineup is more $$$ than I realized. Why would anyone buy an NT USB when you can get the podmic or another condenser + DAC for the same price
Now you understand me. 
It's still not bad / overpriced gear, but it's good in there.
I have learned the error of my ways
A "cheap" USB mic i personally can recommend is https://www.thomann.de/de/superlux_e205umkii.htm
(Only MKII not the first version.)
Ahh, Canada, 2x the price for electronics for no real reason
fricken ass, no good headsets on amazon
What's your budget?
$100
Hmm... I can recommend one.
okay, i'm opened to suggestions
Do you care about "gamer-y" looks?
nope
Mkay. USB or 3.5?
They asked good.
That'd be counter productive 
Link them the pink cat ear rgb headphones
either is fine
i literally just saw that one
its funny and cute
24 bucks? that audio quality and material quality must be ass
This is what I used for a long time.
Like i said, cancer in a box 
how long did it last for you
Hyper X or the Steelseries Arctis series are good in that price range
i tend avoid razer products, but i don't hate them as much as apple

Let's go and do some professional compare testing, shall we? 
Nah, nah, I know you're an audiophile. 
Bring up the gods of reviews, Rtings
I'm not an audiophile. That's Jamie
True.
But i still value actually decent audio 
Him and his wall of uber-expensive headphones.
Razer is just BASS
@balmy lion is this you
HA! No.
Tbf, a lot of consumer nonsense has a focus on that, cus aparently most people just want that. 
Just 2 dummy thicc subs strapped to your ears
A channel I recommend watching for headset reviews is The Techne.
the techne, why does that name sound so familiar
I have that aswell, very poggers, vouch
I've been to Best Buy and Walmart to try headphones... their audio sample machines never work.
Go... to a actual audio caring store 
rbg = unneeded price increase
exactly nico
no matter what product
I don't have one near me. D:
I can see that in war oriented games when there is a lot of explosions n stuff
Also for general listenring, most consumers want BASS and don't even care about what decent high end and treble is 
As long as the "soup" is DEEP who needs clarity, right? 
The amount of stuff you hear with good headphones is mindblowing
The new drivers on the v3 Krakens are pretty damn nice.
i'm looking up at headsets so far and Krakens and HyperX Cloud are likely for me they say
$152
i don't know how you guys can spend over $100 for a pc headset damn, you guys must be rich or something
I'd of gone with one of the AT headsets if I wasn't obsessed with the game/voice channels and quick adjust you get with the astros
I'm a music producer. they're good for producing and still good for casual listening
That's a weird opinion.
if i wasn't poor, i wouldn't disagree
I remember the days of using the logitech chat headset for gaming
Given you're sitting in front of a hundreds of $ machine with many $ monitors, a decent keyboard also going up that much. And so on 
$14.99 and you could change the colour
Given that a headset is a headphone and mic combination, 100-200$ ain't even that much for something decent. 
well technically i bought all of these all in one-go plus coupons and sales
if you link me a $100+ headset that are on sale right now, i will check into it for sure
Bose 700 is something I'm considering
quiet comfort 45 are pretty good
haven't tried the 700 tho
look very similar
but why
Why would you pay so much money for a unpractical not even TKL keyboard.
And to make that clear, while i already dislike TKL, less then TLK is actually trash 
So paul like this one. Originally $129.99 but half off to $64.99.
Mx silver is amazing
The key mechanism also comes in proper keyboard's, and not 60% only 
i like having proper number pads on my keyboards
Same, I can't go without the numpad
But less then TKL is just plain ridiculus 
who needs keys amiright
Corsair K70, chonky boy
ive had a corsair k55 since like early 2019 or so 
not a bad headset, but the RGB on the outside is unnecessary. Id go with The Kraken v3 lineup instead of that 2.0 one.
It should be around the same price I believe
wireless or wired
i'm asking for your preference
Preference ah. Wireless
You have no idea how comfortable it is to just stand up from your chair with no wires
man its the dream
but why would you stand up tho? rage or something?
Cob is old and still dont understand wires can go away
Get a drink, VR, fall onto bed bc of something too funny
spinning your chair around
@nimble apex alright what do you think of this one?
Oh, for headsets, wired for sub $100, to get something wireless that sounds good you need to spend $$$
Not too sure. HyperX has good headphones from what I remember
is that so?
I mean, I say that but it is also subjective
I believe you should check out RandomFrankP for his reviews on stuff Fooni
This is clearly the best headset money can buy.
whos that
A youtuber who reviews tech
Maybe you're ok with what you get with a $70 wireless headset
maybe
what is a nari ultimate
a razer headset
its wireless, It can activate giga shaking on your head
lots of comfort and space around the ears
Omg, I forgot that thing existed
hold on a minute, doesn't wireless headsets comes with batteries?
my issue about it though is the battery life because I just dont charge my headset when I dont use it so I have to charge while using it
ye
You charge the battery up with the cable
all wireless headsets come with two cables I believe one for charging one for wired connection
I broke my wired cable...
Wireless without a plug less station can go away
ye
Nari Ultimate when it needs charging it makes an annoying constant sound soo either keep charging it when not using it or find another headset
RandomFrankP does do best headsets of the year for each year tho
sadly he doesnt compare to previous years but only for the year only
For comparisons, legit, check out rtings
alright wishlisted the headset i needed according someone. So now we play the waiting game until i receive my income.
damn
So for now i will go mute until next month.
which one
HyperX Cloud II
well thats what this other guy was saying
like a microphone test on youtube. Normally in review videos
its pretty solid
id listen to it first
i would buy those
Just an FYI to people. Some Discord bots are really dumb and can not tell an escaped everyone ping from a real one. This was the result in another server from trying to explain to another user that pinging everyone is disabled...
The mute got removed, but thought I'd share that so someone else might learn from this and not do what I did lol.
not a vrchat channel

Inventor question: can anyone think of sensory modalities that we don't quite use that could be repurposed for other things? Trying to come up with a non invasive speech to "sensory input" translator for the deaf, and curious what senses I could use
The best that I've been able to think of is our sense of touch on our backs because we don't really need to feel touch on our backs all that often in daily life, so I was thinking I could make some kind of haptic system there
Although I wanted to see if anyone else had ideas
(think kinda like braille, but for speech)
What do you wanna use the system for. 
By that i mean, which applications. Generally VR? Limited to certain types?
Well from what I understand, given enough time the brain can very heavily adapt to use one sensory input in place of another (at least, sort of)
How about a system that just punches them in the face using Morse code?
Honestly I was thinking more of something where they could just walk around with it on and pick up audio, but a more isolated environment like vr may be a better place to start
Pretty much the idea in a sense lmao
A haptic vest of some kind might be the most practical for vr use
But man idk. Sounds complex
So you mean in general as a assist device for IRL too.
yeah :)
In which case i dunno if there is anything helpful really
tbh imo its not as complex as one would think, its more about coming up with a design thats actually useful 😅
I dunno if deaf can tell directional sound sources by the vibrations on the body it self.
Maybe something like a mic belt around that can translate sound sources to get some kind of directional awareness
ooo i was actually reading a paper about whether or not haptic sensations on the waist affect gait/positional awareness
Shock collar with 360° probes

very true, it would take a lot of adapting. then again im thinking it would work on the same principle that something like cochlear implants work. from what i understand, people with cochlear implants dont actually have their hearing fully restored, but are able to hear differences in pitch and frequency, and then the brain overtime (with therapy and practice) adapts to be able to combine it with other senses (such as vision for lip reading) to be able to understand speech somewhat
so in a sense the problem is already solved, i guess im just wondering if i could come up with a cheaper and less invasive way that could be cool project :D
thing is that deaf isn't always just deaf
if you have deaf blind people, then such a proximity sound ring could again be a much more interesting thing
Hmm very true, there's a lot less options out there for people with issues with multiple senses
Which means more room to improve
SME is very very aggressive with this.
Umg moment
Jup 
nerds

Like you, touch is what first comes to mind somewhere like the back, back of the arm, etc.
Something visual could also work, like if there was a watch of sorts that would display the words being said
This is a neat concept
my favorite deaf person 🥺🥺
The watch thing gives me an interesting thought as well, perhaps things don't need to be translated so much as just a little extra detail added to what people are seeing with the lips
It's an honor
Perhaps something that kinda works like visemes in vrchat, where it listens to the audio and separates it into different syllables/mouth "shapes"
Every time I get in vr games with avatars catch myself trying to read the avatars lips ðŸ˜
That's be really neat if we could do that 👀
Ah shit we in offtopic
God damn it I have sinned
There.. unspecific vr social game
not a vrc channel 
i actually really like this idea, maybe i combine it with the directional feedback system fpaul was talking about... detecting visemes should be less computationally intensive than full on speech to text... i know what im gonna study next :))))
also very helpful irl if covid and masks ever come back lmao
I'm not an antimasker but oh my goodness, masks are hard. How to read lips if I cannot see lips.
I've seen clear masks tho, so nice
very true, basically impossible to read lips 😔
Best part is when someone with a mask who doesn't know me and assumes I can hear comes up to me speaking and I just stand there awkwardly not knowing what to do
im just thinking about my daily life, like when my parents are trying to get my attention they yell at me and i already know what direction to go in to see them, just knowing the direction of the loud sound could be really helpful for a deaf person
(then again if it was me id rather not so that my parents cant yell to get my attention anymore lmao)
nooo 😢
its a safety thing too, your crossing the road and someone honks at you because they cant stop, you have no idea where its coming from
we use loud noises to warn of lots of things whether man made or in nature
A lot of HOH people can hear what's being said but don't have directional hearing as well
ooo i didnt know that! that means it could be useful for even more people
me on vacation in Japan wondering why it's so vacant while the tsunami alarms are going off
noooo
you trying to tell if the vibration on your left is from your parents yelling at you or a tornado siren
invention comes in steps tho
it can always be made more specific in the future
id imagine a tornado siren would trigger vibrations all across the belt, vs a yell only being one side. i should talk to some of my sound engineering friend on how directional audio mics work
Hm yeah that would make sense. Something louder like that should cause much more of a reaction
.
I made food because I wanted an excuse to eat hot sauce and didn't feel right eating it plain lmao
I just drank dihydrogen monoxide
Lucky
I want some
But I'm too lazy to get up
Nevermind I'm gonna be responsible and go drink dihydrogen monoxide

I can't tell if he's horribly Canadian or lightly Irish.
Canadirish
I am now reminded of the Canadians in Dumb & Dumber To. 
what frunk mods and accessories for the index should i absolutely get?
You could measure engine displacement in cubic terameters if you wanted to, but it'd be a pointless pain in the rear.
@dull saddle this is NOT a VRChat channel.

I think I'm about to eat myself into a coma.
I think I just completely fucked my Twitter account
You probably did yourself a favor, really.
Nah I don't follow that side of Twitter
I just have lewd art, normal art, and friends and etc
Hey #general-media
||Ur mom||
No you.
You're one of the good ones.
Hey, that's mean.
I once used it to reply to Notch and he replied back
Ye.
Vrchat
My question still hasn’t been answered
Oh waw ur in that screenshot
Omgggg loook vrchat lol get trolled
(it’s not even vrchat)
It’s a picture of me and a friend
yoooo
Let him in

is there a way to use passthrough with guardian turned off?
Developer mode bullshit
or at least use it with guardian without it going away when I leave the area?
whats wrong with dev mode
Hmmm
its just the new secret light theme 
Anyone recommend a good $20-$30 VR a game I could try out? I just bought Subnautica and I was extremely dissapointed... Refunded the game and now I'm looking for something else
Ur in that screenshot too 🤨🤨🤨📸
Noo it's obviously edited bc my name is purple I swear please don't report me to vrchat moderator 😔
What will I ever do if I can't be a public disturbance and nuisance to this server
Life purpose=destroyed
:(((( ok i will keep it secret
it is much appreciated
Superhot vr
Also the mecha one
Vox machinae
Terrible human animations, but still fun game
This discord android update is weird
Should I update or keep this vers 👀
Idk let me explore it. Kinda everything changed
I think it changed to ios version
Yep
It looks more laggy and broken my opinion 
That was their goal. To strip down android discord and use the ios version instead
Which will run horribly
By pressing it looks like everything teleporting and laggy
