I guess the offline it's mostly to advertise privacy. Or maybe can it translate pdf documents?

I find what they are offering interesting. But I myself use Thunderbird on my pc, spark on my phone, to get the emails from Gmail and yahoo mail.

Skiff isn't compatible with imap, and from what they are saying, is because it's an encrypted service, and using imap would require to unencrypt them.

Well from the article a dataset is required, but not always the heavier one.

Tho it doesn't solve the speed issue, where the llm will take a lot more time to do the compression.

gzip can compress 1GB of text in less than a minute on a CPU, an LLM with 3.2 million parameters requires an hour to compress

From what I'm reading, it's Sony cutting ties with a s* company.

In the open letter they also ask to contact Sony to get refunds, which is not at all how it works. And GamingHeads should be the one giving refunds. They then manage with Sony.

From comments I can read on the website and reddit, it seems that statues were taking a very long time to ship (5 years).

Tho destroying ready to ship products isn't great either.

If Google didn't remove it from their browser... Not sure in how much time, if ever, jpeg xl would become popular.

The bad news is that Android is still likely affected. Similar to Apple's ImageIO, Android has a facility called the BitmapFactory that handles image decoding, and of course libwebp is supported. As of today, Android hasn't released a security bulletin that includes a fix for CVE-2023-4863 -- although the fix has been merged into AOSP. To put this in context: if this bug does affect Android, then it could potentially be turned into a remote exploit for apps like Signal and WhatsApp. I'd expect it to be fixed in the October bulletin.

So a no-click device hack?

Well for it to get a chance in the US where the other side of big tech is, it would need to be sold to another company than Huawei, or for the US to relax the ban.

I have no idea why the US banned Huawei so intensely other than blocking competition from China.

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.

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.
