  • OP first off Thank you for turning me on to pantheon because I did not get the memo this shit is phenomenal. Idk if it belongs on this list quite since it’s a movie and not a series, but a lot of folks have not seen “Mars Express” and it was also a really good animated scifi. Has that detective noir expanse/ghost in the shell vibe.







  • I’ve also been on the search for the perfect headset. I have 3 requirements :

    • I want two independent output devices to show up natively without software, 1 for main output and 1 for voice chat output
    • I want on the fly mixing between the 2 outputs, preferably without additonal software, with a physical knob
    • I want good sidetone, preferably with volume knob

    Checking all these boxes has been near impossible. I currently have an older steel series arctis and it does it. Newer models tho and almost every OEM out there has some shit software that’s windows only. Newer steel series for instance only has the chat mix as a virtual output in software. I know I can achieve similar with Pipewire. The only headset I found that was close was the audeze gaming headset but the sidetone was awful, static and crackle.

    If someone has a rec that can check all those boxes for me let me know.


  • I’ve tried most of these. A lot seem more geared towards slack alternatives or more like work chat type things. Voice chat is critical and some lack it or have it tacked on. Teamspeak is the opposite which text chat is tacked on. The closest alts right now are stoat, fluxer and root. Fluxer and stoat and open source, root is VC funded. I’m pushing for fluxer personally. But he is getting hug of death at the moment.
