  • US could hit Russia with export rule that killed Huawei, banning US tech

    One more thing to add. If we assume US imposes sanctions on Germany, for example, what would Germany do? Weep and plead for forgiveness. What would Russia do? Show middle finger to US and go to work harder. As usual. Russia has several thousands (!!!) of years of economic troubles and wars. It never lived well and very few had any wealth at all. So even if sanctions make life a little harder, russians are used to it. "If it does not kill, it only makes us stronger" - this is a typical opinion. And another: "Who comes to us with a sword, will die from that sword". That one is about 2000 years old and still very popular.

    So, guys, really, if you want all this madness to end, ask US/EU leaders to get some really good advisers, who understand how russians think. It is impossible to win without understanding your enemy. And it does not seem like anybody understands russians or Putin.

    Full-scale sanctions should scare Putin. 
    No, they won't. Russia's mentality is different from the Western one. This is what Western leaders do not understand about Russia to their cost. It is like: "The more you hit us, the stronger and more united we become". Russia cannot be fought with sanctions because they only make people unite with Putin. People see him as the only protector and US as their main enemy. The only way to fight Russia is as it was done in 1985: give them something sweet and slow destroy from inside. There were professionals at that time, who knew this about Russia. There are none now. That's why it is not working now.

  • Apple plans macOS software fix for M1 Mac Bluetooth connectivity issues

    Apple's Bluetooth always was problematic. I have random disconnections of apple keyboard and touchpad even on my 2015 MBP. Never fixed despite being reported.

    Their bluetooth audio support is a joke. Even with airPods they are unable to make proper stereo sound AND mic work at the same time (mic goes to 8Ghz mode) because their implementation has only two channels for this. It works fine with any bluetooth dongle. Even the cheapest Chinese bluetooth dongle is able to do it better than Apple.

    After all these years they are still not able to make proper stable bluetooth support. Disappointing...
