I am sory for not living in a giant home without any 2.4ghz neighbors around me.

Also I myself use 2.4ghz for low bandwidth devices, and other connected devices which don't have 5ghz. And there are also the neighbors who cast their 2.4ghz network they may use how they will around me.

But I didn't have many issues on most of the headsets I tried. At least higher end.

There were still some outliers and with bad unreliable connections, even on high latency (jbl tour one m2 for example).

Others like corsair headsets had issues at "high" range (like 10-15m through walls), but no issues at close range, but that is expected from their specs.

Well look at wifi vs bluetooth. Wifi and bluetooth both use 2.4ghz. But wifi has a lot more bandwidth on 2.4ghz. Maybe because it uses more channels (a bigger frequency range)?

But there is room to improve bandwidth, even over distance. Tho how would they have done that, no idea. There is need for more time so devices with the tech can arrive on the market, and be tested.

But also more time so more specialised content can be produced to inform us normal people.

The new creative zen hybrid pro hybrid and pro sxfi seem to be advertised to use bluetooth 5.3 with LC3 and LC3+.

Tho not if they are on the market yet or if there are reviews.

The metroidvania games where saved by hollow knight. And now there are so many good options, even recent releases (some. May not have the tag).

Get yourself something else in the meantime.

I think 180k people disagree with you each day playing starfield.

Tho I myself agree that lots of recent AAA games don't value their 60$ price or whatever. The low effort and quality put into them at launch is just not worth the money.

Maybe sometimes in the future when they are fixed and on discount they could be better value.

Tho hogwarrs legacy for example did not see any update since 4-5 months. And it's still cursed with bugs. Maybe it's what we could see with other recent releases too.

I'm not sure it's always the only thing people want. Yes stability is needed, even more when a lot of people are using it.

But currently headsets are heavily missing (very) high quality wireless audio and mic at the same time. Maybe this tech could push towards that.

Not really like that.

Right now it's not possible to connect a headset/headphone via wifi to a device other than some proprietary things.

So a general competitor usable on all devices allowing more data transfer for more audio with less compression. I think it could be interesting.

Not just because it would maybe be better. But because competition on a market is a good thing for the consumer. And push bluetooth maybe further than what it is.

Tho if by some misunderstanding, the chip used isn't compatible with bluetooth I'm not very sure... As brands would need to include 2 chips, which increases the cost.

Here is another article it seems to have more info https://techcrunch.com/2023/09/25/reddit-will-start-paying-you-real-money-for-your-karma/

redditors need to earn at least 10 gold within a 30-day period — if they don’t reach the threshold, the balance rolls over. For users with between 100 and 4,999 karma, they will receive $0.90 per 1 gold. Once you earn more than 5,000 karma, you can earn $1 per gold.

It's so bad... and what will happen is spam cheap bot content to get the gold amount necessary to get paid.

There aren't just concerns, it's a f prediction.

Yeah... I'm not sure about the quality being really better than competition. Tho maybe Linux support may be better depending on what components different laptops use.

System76 is a bit strange. Their laptops are more expensive than other windows brands, while offering Linux. I'm not sure if it's really worth going with them, as a lot of other laptops ca work with Linux. Tho maybe I missed something about their laptops.

Framework I think I saw some Poole saying it has some issues running Linux with some component incompatibilities. Tho you may want to do more research, maybe even opening some reddit threads and dodging useless comments.

There is a flatpak zoom app. I guess it can be sandboxes somehow. It would most likely not pose any privacy threat outside of zoom.

But keep in mind that zoom got into it's privacy policy, that they can record and use for ai anything you do and say during a meeting (if you didn't allow access to the desktop during the meeting, zoom shouldn't be able to record it, so most likely won't matter for that, only what you send through their servers).
