So, I'm trying to get this new headset to work, and I can't get the microphone to work. I look on the website, and it doesn't support

@modulusshift Mac. (dang enter to send...) Which is interesting, since it uses standard 3.5mm ports for both speakers and microphone, and I'm not having any speaker problems. I didn't think the microphone standards were any more complicated.
-
@modulusshift It's because of Apple's refusal to accept unapproved third party software. Or peripherals.
-
@thatonepony Through a 3.5mm port? That they installed, specifically for microphones and because it was a standard, which means you don't have to approve every peripheral? Color me doubtful.
-
@modulusshift I mean things like Apple's refusal to use standardized cables, like HDMI, VGA, DVI, etc. The software for your headphones, also. Apple didn't want to use it, so it's not compatible.
-
@thatonepony There was no software. And it is a standard cable. You're not helping.
-
@modulusshift I wasn't trying to help. I'm just telling you it's not supported on Mac because Apple suck dicks.
-
@thatonepony (sigh) *reclassifies as minor troll*
-
@modulusshift I find that "minor" offensive. If I am to be classified a troll, I ought be considered with my rightful title of king.
-
@thatonepony Nah. Rather lame troll.
-
@modulusshift You should also understand that I'm not trolling at the moment. Apple really is evil, and I really do hate them.
-
@thatonepony I don't have any proof that they're not evil, but I'm not going to base my assumption upon a headset's microphone not working, even if it is for seemingly no reason. Besides, Mac works well. I can't use Windows anymore. Lackluster cmdline, lame origins, and it only still exists due to popularity.
-
@modulusshift That's a pretty good description of Mac.
-
@thatonepony The last bit? Ok, so the commandline is as capable as Linux, which I see as the gold standard for that. Origins are a bit weird, from NextStep and all, but the UNIX underneath is solid, unlike Windows, which was a DOS shell that refused to die when DOS did. And Mac isn't terribly popular. If Apple needed to entirely rewrite it, no one would care terribly. I mean, they already did from 9 to X. Windows is much too popular to be rewritten from scratch, which is what I think it needs.
-
@modulusshift why is everypony replying 2 thatonepony that much i mean im fine with it its that its weird
-
@modulusshift "Mac isn't terribly popular." Good job, you just ruined your credibility. You've lost to argument by default.
-
@terlecnumber1 Because I'm a popular mangoeser.
-
@thatonepony hel* yeah mother cherrieser
-
@thatonepony Mac isn't all that popular, though. I laid out my points on why I don't think so, and you can't deny them. I mean, you compare Mac to half of what Apple does, and it's not very popular at all. There are a lot more iPhones and iPods than Macs at this point.
-
@thatonepony Or, for my troll answer. You can't type properly. Your argument is invalid.

@modulusshift Nice catch. I would have missed that. Also, Mac is hella popular. I'm ending this now, because you're just making up reasons at this point.
-
@thatonepony Alright then, if you don't see my arguments as having any point, then I don't think you're capable of having an informed viewpoint on the situation. *reassessed to minor, misinformed troll*

@modulusshift I feel so much like Jade, but with good grammar and less awesomeness.
-
@modulusshift Jade's can only be girls. I'm stripping in front of a Jade actually.
-
@modulusshift my stripping?
-
@carcino THAT IS ALL OF THE PROBLEM
-
@thatonepony I have such a sexy body.
-
@carcino MY BRAIN IS CRYING
-
@thatonepony dude, when I walk on by, girls be looking like "Damn he fly!"
-
@thatonepony I am crying as well.
-
-
@thatonepony I work out.
-
@carcino Does that involve picking up your cheeseburger ten times before eating it?
-
@thatonepony ...where is the burger from?
-
@carcino How the dicks am I supposed to know that?
-
@thatonepony because Fast food is gross.
-
@carcino Which is why it's all you eat, right?
-
@thatonepony well its either that or Mom's soup.
-
@carcino THE FAST FOOD
