I guess I’m easy to please, but, recently I got myself a better bluetooth dongle over the holidays. I had one before, but it was stupid cheap, connection was frail and didn’t have good range. Now I have one with Bluetooth 5.4 and I’m amazed with what I can do with it.
I can funnel sound to any one of my bluetooth speakers so I don’t have it hogging my main speakers when I want something close by me.
Speaking of which, I wish I had really known this far earlier in my days of using a computer. But, being able to split audio in multiple ways. I can assign where sound is going to, program to program. One browser gets these headsets, that browser gets the TV speakers .etc
That kind of shit amazes me and damn shame I never explored this before.
I was a huge fantasy nerd as a child. Wanted magic to be real so badly, wanted to be able to affect change in the world purely through force of will. As I grew older I realized humans do have magical abilities; a group of humans with sufficient domain knowledge and the right tools can absolutely bring about change through sheer force of will. I absolutely studied magic (engineering) in University and seeing magic from other disciplines always left me awestruck.
Especially sparkies; “don’t let the magic smoke out of the wires” is the extent of my electrical knowledge.
