gollark: I found a spare USB microphone in my random electronics box, so I might try with that tomorrow. Also, my phone has a microphone, I realized.
gollark: I checked the pulseaudio control panel thing, and it lists both an internal and headset microphone, both muted by default. When I *un*muted them and tried the mic test thing I just got noise, so who knows what's going on with that.
gollark: Well, I've got a server, but that... doesn't have a microphone either.
gollark: I think the problem here is that due to some weird weirdness, my laptop's microphone, assuming it has one, does not work while I have headphones in the headphone jack.
gollark: I don't think my laptop has a working microphone.
