Studio monitors are excellent choices, but expensive. I've used genelecs for pretty much every audio workstation I've ever done, I'm a huge fan, but you're also talking $800 and up.

You can sometimes find a good deal on some used studio monitors, which to me is the way to go. A long ways back I decommissioned some genelecs for a studio (surprise surprise, the new studio had newer versions of the same model), and I've been using them since at home. Roughly 15 years now.

Just to add - this "hat" would also likely improve reception.

That is not what the article says.

I'd even go as far as to say many of them today are just copying Jobs. He was a terrible person.

... Which is the device they specifically mention regarding /e/os in the article.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago

Oof, seriously. And /e/os is an odd recommendation over graphene.

He recently got laughed at again over Deadpool of all things.

Not really. It's gone from the alphabet handbook, not Google's.

Which was a hilarious bit for me recently with a guy saying "I HAVE THE HANDBOK FOR GOOGLE" and getting all upset despite my repeatedly pointing out that it was removed for alphabet, which is a different company.

It also got moved around in the Google handbook a bit. Still exists though.

Nah, just have it be like a palmtop!

Going to have to build one of them one of these days....

Fair enough. Most of my work means building out LXC's and VMs for testing, and with 2 kids I don't have much time/energy left for gaming, so my setup works for me.

But it's definitely not for everyone, I already have the pieces in place to make it work nicely. I actually had a windows workstation set up for work, but couldn't deal with the windows nonsense anymore, which is why I went this route.

It can work on a single machine with an iGPU, but kb/m gets a bit complex. And then there's streaming over no machine or something, but that has its own drawbacks unfortunately.

Whatever works for you, works for you and that's what matters

If it works for you, I've found running some things as a VM works better than dealing with windows.

Admittedly I have a lot of hardware due to what I do, but I've got (multiple, but just one is relevant in this case) proxmox server set up with an extremely tightened up windows 10 build. I've removed pretty much everything humanly possible on the windows side, just installing enough for the applications I need.

I then have a GPU that's passed through to it directly (that machine is headless otherwise). So I'm getting all the GPU acceleration, but without using anything else on Windows, it stays slim and trim so it runs pretty well, and it's pretty light on ram use.

With the second DP input of my monitor, I come off a video switcher but you can skip that and go right off the GPU. Now you've got a lightweight little VM directly connected to your display. Pass through your USB device of choice (I'm assuming a controller here, but you can use a second keyboard/mouse or USB host switch if you want).

Personally I find this approach easier since I don't have to deal with all the memory gobbling nonsense on the windows side, I get to do my daily work in Linux, and specialty stuff that I just can't run in wine stays readily available.
