At first I was skeptical of bluetooth speakers, but the Harman Kardon Go Play 3+ changed my mind.. it can be on par with bookshelf speakers. It has high fidelity, smooth bass and an overall nice sound profile. Would not recommend it for outside use since it's not too loud nor waterproof, however I prefer quality over quantity anyways. Can recommend 8.5/10.
To all #FOSS supporting people traveling these days: Please consider collecting wireless geolocation information for the #publicdomain #geolocation database #beaconDB.
Check the map via the link above to see how it is filling up with more and more points. Amazing and very interesting to see.
Also note the differences per continent.

It's almost the Holiday season again and everywhere I'm seeing test reports about #Bluetooth #headphones.
I've burned through at least four pairs just to go back to a wired model and a USB-C->3.5 mm adapter.
They spontaneously broke across vendors; Bose, Sennheiser, cheap Amazon Basic; so I'm sitting on a small pile of plastic and electronic #junk which isn't even worth disassembling for salvaging components.
Can't we just agree that mobile phones shall have 3.5 mm connectors again?
Did you know that a woman in #STEM is behind the technology used in #smartphones?
Actress and engineer #HedyLamarr invented frequency hopping, an essential part of #Wifi, #GPS, and #bluetooth
As I didn't find any information on this: Is the #mntpocketreform with #rk3588 powerful enough to actively participate in a video call using #bigbluebutton and #jitsi, preferably using a #bluetooth headset while the system might be connected to the network via #wifi (on some #mobilelinux phones I get stuttering sound when using Bluetooth and WiFi at the same time ...)

Premissas Erradas, #PipeWire e #Bluetooth

We just landed support for connecting / disconnecting #Bluetooth devices via quick settings on #Phosh's current development branch 🥳 :
Aha, found a Linux machine which has Bluetooth here, which can pull the readings from my new Aranet 4. Now to hook this into some kind of dashboard. Of course, you can probably follow me around an airport with the MAC address on this, if I were to go traveling with it, LOL. #aranet #linux #bluetooth
Last year, I collaborated with artist Henrik Nordahl on a sound sculpture that generates sound and vibrations based on wi-fi traffic, called "Hello World". The piece was exhibited at The Sheila Johnson Design Center, Parsons, NYC, in April 2023.
Read more about the project and how I designed the sound engine in my new post - https://aleksati.net/works/hello-world

#gmobile 0.2.1 is out 🎉 adding hwdb (or should we call it buttondb 🙃) entries for the #PinePhone Pro, OnePlus 6/6T, Juno Tablets and #bluetooth devices using the AVRCP profile,
(We made this 0.2.1 rather than 0.3.0 to indicate that it's fine to backport to stable releases).

Hello, community!
We need #openhardware with #bluetooth so we can link them it to #MyGNUHealth.
Currently we have @pine64eu smartwatch, but we'd love to integrate scales, glucometers, blood pressure monitors...
Just reply to this toot or send us a message if you know of any device. We'd love to test them!🤗
#GNU #GNUHealth #pinephone #PineTime
The upcoming #MyGNUHealth 2.2 allows to pair and sync data from #bluetooth medical devices such as glucometers, blood pressure monitors and smartwatches like the #PineTime from @PINE64 Stay tuned! 😎

The tiny 400mAh #LithiumPolymer #battery in this cheap #Bluetooth #speaker turned into a puffed up pillow. I've replaced it with a 350mAh one I salvaged from a single-use disposable #vape device. In spite of the lower capacity, it is significantly larger than the original battery. Hope it can still fit in the available space.
Also fitted a JST connector to the speaker wires in case I need to disassemble again for a future #repair.
“King Harald #Bluetooth…was famous for uniting Scandinavia just as we intended to unite the PC and cellular industries with a short-range wireless link.”
Sounds like a parody but it's real. #TIL.

I find it disgusting that in order to change the settings of my #eScooter (#Segway #Ninebot) I have to install an application and register an account using an email address.
This should be unnecessary considering the final communication between the application and the e-scooter happens via #Bluetooth.
But the manufacturer could not resist the opportunity to send as much data as possible to more than 10 servers located in #China for something as simple as changing a setting.
