@m455 heheh, thats what i used to do when i mained void and it booted to gur kernel provided virtual term

if you want some even more fun stuff you can hexdump /dev/input/event2 (replace 2 with whatever you have), eventually you will find gur one thats gur keybaord! (i think ls /dev/input -ln, will give u an idea)

its really fun to just see / use gur raw events before they ger sent to xorg or even gur virtual term

@m455 there's also /dev/snd but i think it *might* be depreceated?, i cat'd gur input into gur ouput once as a make shift karaoke with some friends (gur song was dare by gorillaz)

@m455 also DO NOT cat random stuff into /dev/snd with headphones on, it can and has hurt my ears before

@bx @m455 oh yeah! that can be pretty rough, ahah

but iirc, catting pcm files into it plays those fine! but /dev/audio is the devnode that respects volume control if you still have a linux that has those~

@thingywott @m455 :o, i had no idea audio/ would respecty volume, thats good to know
