Kinko's I believe was bought out by Fedex. The one near me basically changed names but still offers the same services.

Other than using Shazam, when is this an issue for people? On Zoom or Facetime, the audio connection is almost certainly using an HFP/SCO connection, which is going to downgrade to an 8K or 16KHz sample rate regardless of where the mic is coming from.

I don't use Shazam, but it doesn't actually make sense to me that you would even use Shazam while listening to audio in your Airpods. I thought that was for music you heard from something other than your own device. You are listening to music in your Airpods and trying to identify a song from another source at the same time?

This just isn't making sense to me.

I genuinely don't understand why anyone would be interested in using frameworks on top of JS. None of them can do anything that pure JS can't do (+libraries), they just make it less readable and less intuitive compared to the original C-like syntax of JS. JS libraries make sense, of course, but why keep messing with the syntax?

Bluetooth/BLE has the unique problem that you don't own the code on both sides of the wireless tx/rx. In webdev, you have control over client side and server side code and can make them work together in some unique way, without worrying about interoperability. But with Bluetooth/BLE devices, not only do you need to be able to communicate with random peers you've never seen before, those peers also need to be able to connect to countless other BT/BLE devices and read information about the services available on those devices. In order to enable this interoperability between BLE devices, a standardized format needed to be developed: GATT. GATT is the very highest layer of this interoperability and is considered "user-level" from the perspective of a BT firmware dev. In BT classic, the SDP table provides nearly the same service as GATT, except that data isn't carried over it, just service discovery.

Interesting. What you say is true, but there is an opposing force. If someone has cash on hand when interest rates spike, they can buy when everyone else has a much harder time getting loans. So this makes things appear cheaper because there are less buyers on the market.

BUT the opposing force is the inflation that originally justified the spike in interest rates. That cash they are holding is simultaneously worth less due to the devaluing of the dollar, but also enables you to operate when others have run dry.

EDIT: so I guess there is a distinction in the value of the dollar when you are using it to buy large things that require debt vs the day to day little items. Because the little items will get inflated easily as everyone allocates their limited capital to food and fuel. But the real estate market will stagnate as no one can trade houses around in this environment.

>that's why they crank the interest rate through the ceiling. People that are cash heavy could come up quite a bit if left uninhibited

Can you clarify?

This is interesting. Never thought about how confusing it would be when banks start playing musical chairs with your mortgage.

I do agree that a soft landing is still a recession. But the more people that realize that, the less soft the landing might be.

They also use fuel, rent, and a bunch of other things. So I think it's valid to compare the two.

No one owns the airwaves. If you don't want to pay the SIG fees, simply do not use their logo or name.

Good work putting all this together. Not saying anything is wrong necessarily, but missing part of the picture.

Right, it’s more of a configuration that is being changed. But my point was that this is all above the HCI layer, so at the end of the day it’s related to the specific host-stack implementation and not to do with Bluetooth in general.

I guess I’m basically saying the title should be changed

Nope

Not really. Just experience
