Merry Christmas and whatever!
I'm feeling a lot less apathetic today than I thought I would.
I also got quite a few small things I needed/wanted, despite having forgotten consistently to actually directly tell anyone what the hell I wanted.
So... Success?
On another note, why don't designers just make every headphone jack an in/out combo, even if the computer has a seperate mic jack?! It would make it so that, even if you have seperate jacks, you wouldn't need to buy a bloody splitter if you want your one-jack headphones-with-mic to have both parts work at the same time. Was really hoping that since these new headphones happen to have a mic it would allow me to finally use skype and record audio, etc. on my micless Desktop, but upon testing with my Laptop, it won't detect the mic unless I plug it into the mic jack, and even then it doesn't work, probably because the headphones are only meant for a single mixed jack... Or because they were technically supposed to be used with smartphones...
