Not really. It’s up to the software, soundcard, and/or recording.
Stereo headphones are surround. The reason laptop speakers are not is because they are in front of you. Headphones are one for each ear, separate.
Our brain is very sensitive to phase difference between sound in either ear. That is how we can tell sound direction. It’s like triangulation, except the third variable is the shape of our ears (is it comming from the front or the back, see HRTF again).
There is no such thing as surround headphones. There can not even be such a thing. All headphones are surround. It’s either sound card drivers, software in the chain, or just marketing. Get “normal” headphones and check out some directional audio videos on youtube.
Openal is an audio library used by some older games and they patched HRTF into it to make it sound even more surround.
Decent headphones that are comfortable are better then even more expensive full room setups, although just for one person.

Stereo headphones are surround sound. It’s how ears work. You percieve position by how late the sound comes to one ear compared to the other. There is a bit more, but I don’t want to write on the phone more. Google HRTF for that part.

Like in the tv shows when they say “epinephrine”, and I was like wtf is that? for years.
And later on with the amazing metal called tungsten. Why have I never heard of it?

I think it depends on the screw, what it’s for. Softer ones can bend without breaking, very important in most cases.

- Comment on Anon makes a modern game 3 months ago:
I walk my dog every day around sundown. That’s way too dark. Maybe if the air is so clean and dry that it doesn’t scatter light as much, but that is impossible because lake and forrest.
And it’s a game. Lighting should depend on mood more then reality (even in movies they add impossible lights everywhere).
Still nice you understand what they call “PBR”.

I always say kthxbye. They are training off the responses, so I do it for the small chance that it will respond like that to someone ending a conversation.

- Comment on It's just a Planck bro 7 months ago:
The smallest particles are not actually balls, but are wibbly wobbly. To measure something we need to interact with it, even if we interact with it using light. But because those particles are all wibbly wobbly, we can’t say for sure where they are exactly. And that unsure distance is Plancks length.
