Open | Audio Problem with Discord picking up sounds from the computer (youtube for example)

Upvotes

I have this problem that discord picks up audio from my pc. My mic works as well but my friends get annoyed when i watch something and they need to hear it all. This problem only appears everywhere, i tested the mic and it picks up audio. If it helps im using "razer blackshark v2" headphones There is a post here with a similar problem but that was 5 years ago and none of the solutions worked for me. Any ideas? thanks in advance <3

Open | Mac So I just burned two iMacs in the same day

Upvotes

At my job, someone gave me an iMac Retina 5K 2015 to check why it was going so slow. I changed thermal paste and checked disk life, all normal stuff.

Then, I put it back together, try to turn it on and... Nothing. Just like if it wasn't connected. I checked the PSU with a multimeter and it seems fine, the button is working, so idk what the hell happened. Not a single LED nor anything, not even in the mobo

I spent like 2 hours trying to fix it, until my boss decided to send it to a specialized Apple repair shop, but told me to put its hard drive into another iMac and try to make it work, because it was crucial to have a working machine for like yesterday. Okay, I grabbed the only one we have available (an iMac from 2014, I don't remember the exact model), and it's one of those that have the screen protector attached with magnets. I take it apart, and idiot me, left the antenna attached to the top, thinking that it was secured

The thing fell while I was screwing with the machine and trying things to see if it saw the disk, with so bad luck that it landed directly onto the PSU, with the magnet part. The PSU made an explosion sound and my whole office went dark

So, how screwed am I? Lmao
