PipeWire is the future for Linux audio and I am sold on it

Been riding the pipewire wave since mid-2020, results mostly positive, though it's been tough to find parameters for my usb audio card that yield acceptable latencies with acceptable amount of xruns.

Liam, what are you using for music playback that allows for persistent connections in the patchbay?

- Avorion - pretty engaging, at least in the first hours. Guess it's only getting boring from there on.
- Interplanetary - okay, but feels like it's lacking something.
- Broforce - fun and destruction with a horrible netcode and most bugs I've seen in the past five years.
- Don't Starve Together - still a cute coop survival.
