There is. I'd say it actually goes right in most cases. Like, assuming you had a decent childhood, your parents had power over you and it went right. And went way better than it would have if no one had power over you. Of course one can also have shitty parents, but saying it always goes wrong is over the top. Imo instead we should discuss in what contexts who should have what amount of power over whom, keeping everything as liberal as possible, but also have systems of power in place where necessary.

I'm so torn about valve. It is after all a proprietary platform. I use it since always and have hundreds of games and just know they'll all be gone at some point in the future. No word about making steam client open source, not even talking about something like decentralized proof of ownership etc. (For obvious reasons)

That said: they do incredible work for Linux. Their games have been Linux compatible since ages! And actually play well on Linux. Their client works flawlessly. And what they have done with proton is just flat out incredible. As you say Linux gaming is awesome currently and has not been that exciting for a long time. In short they do awesome work, I'd just wish they were a little bit open sourceier.

I ordered some of these:

With a little bit of luck it should be an easy repair. Thanks again!

That seems to be it! Or "JST-PH"? Not sure what the difference is between PH and PHR-5. 2mm pitch seems to be it at least, and plastic tabs seem to be at the right place:

Just order some of the generic ones I find for " JST-PH" on aliexpress and pray? You are a great help, thank you!

Thanks for your help! Looks almost identical, but not exactly! The little plastic tabs on the edge are a bit further apart on the connector you send me. Or at least that's what it looks like on pictures I find:

Here the little plastic tabs are roughly above pin 1 and 5, on my connector it's more above pin 2 and 4... Hope you can understand what I mean. Any idea?

 

Looking to replace the male connector in this picture. Any idea what it is called and where I can get it? I'm in Germany.

Someone knows some <$100 over ear headphones with solid anc?

... and the budget one does not even have ANC if I understand it correctly.
