I use legendary (the command line backend for epic bundled with heroic) on windows as well. It's just so much better and faster than the epic store.

Quite true in my experience. A 5.1 or 7.1 surround system with a good center speaker will make most issues go away.
Even just 3 speakers in front of you with a center one that is usually for voice should fix it (like some soundbars).

If you have only two but still want something better than the default I can recommend: https://www.fxsound.com/ formerly known as DFX. It's now free.

How does FxSound work?
Home stereo systems and PC’s are built with a compromise: keep hardware affordable at the cost of quality.
FxSound compensates for low quality hardware by targeting and processing sound’s timbre, volume, spatial balance, and dynamics.
What this means for you is clearer, louder, deeper, and balanced audio. Install our lightweight program, let it run quietly in the background, and enjoy your new audio experience.

Hello, We're Firefox in c/funny@sh.itjust.works

Many browsers have a Linux version (even Edge). IE only works under Wine though. And I think this Perplexity thing has no Linux version.

Most distros default to FF though, yeah.

No, I can decide what I want to block myself.

Come on Bush Jr was a true poet.

"I think war is a dangerous place."
"I was trying to escape. Obviously, it didn't work."
"You teach a child to read, and he or her will be able to pass a literacy test."
"Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning?"
“Your’re working hard, to put food on your family.”
“If you want the facts, it’s a size ten shoe that he threw.”
"They misunderestimated me."

They do. The result is usually as expected. Either full of security holes or the recipe site is advertising cyanide ice cream.

Quite true. But also no mouselook. It was good for turning and shooting though. Romero also endorsed this thing:

You might be more into the darker more serious stuff like: Hellsing, Ghost in the Shell, Berserk, etc.

It's a bit like not wanting to watch any TV show because all you have seen are RomComs. There are a ton of Anime out there for all kinds of viewers.
