Honestly it’s quite an accomplishment that having Synapse installed and running actually makes their products worse

#Razer forced to pay more than $1M in refunds for its RGB 'surgical N95 respirators' that were not #N95 respirators

Five years ago, the CEO of Razer, which makes gaming gear, laptops, bags and chairs, said the brand would make a toaster. As part of the campaign to get the product made, several Facebook users got tattoos of Razer toasters. Now, there's no toaster and the company says it will not be regularly updating its community due to inappropriate social media comments, including death threats. Tom's Hardware caught up with nine of the 12 folk who got tattooed to find out how they feel, and if they still believe.

@CultureDesk

Fun fact: about 7% of people regret their tattoos.

CultureDesk,
@CultureDesk@flipboard.social avatar

@ttpphd All the folk interviewed for this article still have their tattoos and one is considering getting it touched up. The writer only managed to reach nine of the 12, but seemingly the whole group is still in touch and no one mentions that anyone has had their tattoo removed. So perhaps the moral of the story is that people who get tattoos of a Razer toaster regret their tattoos less than the average?

I'm growing to dislike wearing a typical large headset. I think what I want is gaming-centric, wireless in-ear monitors, with no mic. Do those exist?

Started putting together a dedicated mic + earbud set.

Got a Seiren V3 Chroma, because RGB, with an Elgato low-profile mic arm, and Razer's Hammerhead Pro earbuds.

I feel less restricted, but the earbuds of course have shorter battery life and the mic is still active, hurting battery.

Anyone seen IEMs like this?

@InfiniteHench maybe the clip mics from DJI are something for you? But they are expensive. There is also an alternative, but I can’t remember the company name.

@Kernic Ooh thanks, I'll look into those.

Mit der richtigen Firmware kann man in RGB Geräte steuern. Meine Maus/Tastatur lassen sich ohne Synapse einstellen 👍. Problem ist nur, Wireless Geräte gehen in Stand-by und Windows bekommt danach nicht mehr mit, dass die Farben resettet wurden 🙄.

Warum hat man das nicht bedacht?

Hey, if you've had terrible customer support (or even if not), can you upvote or comment on this thread?

They're a billion dollar company with some of the worst customer support that many of us have ever dealt with. Something needs to change. And we know they watch these threads (they reply sometimes).

I have the original version of this chair because the lumbar support felt unique and was the most comfortable of the chairs I could find, gaming and otherwise.

This new 2.0 version where the entire lumbar piece swivels left and right is pretty interesting to me. https://www.razer.com/gaming-chairs/razer-iskur-v2

Video clip of the Razer chair lumbar support swiveling, clipped from the website since I couldn’t save the GIF directly

@Dinoracha I really like how the system on this chair (my 1.0 version) is a tall vertical space and not just a little bump in the small of my back. It feels like it fits me better than other lumbar systems I’ve used, including on premium office chairs.

Dinoracha,
@Dinoracha@mstdn.games avatar

@InfiniteHench I've been hesitant about gamer chairs since the first one I tried was so comically bad after two months. It does seem like this new 2.0 version would fit my weight and height, and also mmmm that adjustable lumbar.
Edit: Except oh crikey, I just looked at its price.

Hallo zusammen,

ich bräuchte mal Hilfe beim Thema Headset: Welches sollte ich mir (für hauptsächlich berufliche Videokonferenzen) holen?

Nach den für mich wichtigen Kriterien (Gute Mikrofonqualität & Gute Wiedergabequalität) kamen für mich zwei Headsets in Frage.

Welche sollte ich mir noch anschauen?
