I think that is preferred compared to the ludicrous amount of lobbyist money politicians receive for the corruption mess.

Even my super basic washer has a delayed start timer that solves that issue without wifi modules or whatever. Then again insurance doesn't cover a water leak or oven fire if I run stuff when I'm away so I never do that.

The "communists" (hardly...) are bought by lobbyists?

Every influencer/whatever should strive to be like Tom, his series is the greatest on youtube of the last decade and I'm sad to see it end.

At the same time I'm looking forward to whatever he may try out and hopefully he'll remain somewhat relevant even though we don't deserve him at all.

Bluetooth and bluetooth audio are very different things. Bluetooth audio support seem rather weak and users seem to be using usb audio blootooth dongles created for pa4 and ps5 such as https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08MF5S5YX rather than a generic bluetooth transciever.

What little freebsd support for bluetooth audio there is seem to rely on specific audio backend software and since I'm assuming ps5 has surround sound, atmos and whatnot they probably threw that out of the window early on during development.

With that said sony has done plenty of graphical stuff on what I assume is their custom display driver suchas 3d, vrr, hdr. So them having plenty of custom modules on top of freebsd can't really be an excuse so I'd just cook it down to sony priorities.

Also, fuck developing for bluetooth. Hate that janky specification...

Because bluetooth audio playback is part of the kernel and pulseaudio/pipewire (and more) and unless sony want to run those on the ps5 (which arguably would be a bad idea at this point) that's not really a useful analogy.

A better question is why a dedicated gaming company like nintendo could at least get some audio working while ps5 made by a much bigger and more diverse company can't.

Arguably it's because ps5 is a home console and audio playback is the realm of the tv or receiver/soundbar in that setting and they are more concerned with showing ads and spying on you than basic functionality nowadays...

Linking is enough to be illegal in places. A torrent file or magnet link is just a link and contain no pirated content itself yet here we are.

Passport colour is only a recommendation anyway, Croatia apparently redesigned their passport when joining EU and maintained the blue colour. Was that an argument for brexit?

Which seem perfectly reasonable to me honestly. This all seem like a nothing issue when we have larger problems concerning things like planned obsolescence and no maintainability to deal with.
