Headsets can and do use other codecs already. This is especially true for Enterprise headsets with dongles - these still use Bluetooth but by controlling both sides they can pick codecs. LE Audio is great though - and is already, as "t

I don't think I recall having a meeting with anyone using plain headphones with the laptop mic instead of a headset of some kind. Wired headphones without a mic are somewhat unusual nowadays to begin with outside audio file circles. Ai

You wouldn't use a chip antenna if you're that tight on PCB space. A trace at the circumference of the PCB, or a wire antenna that only take up space for the solder joint would do.

Honestly, the idea of upgradeable RAM was purely tied to it being low-speed, high-cost devices. This in turn drives the ridiculous markup some companies charge now, drives up system costs due to complexity, and harms performance. Having a d

More power is to overcome switching losses and parasitic reactances. You can increase drive strength up to a limit to overcome this, but a slight clock reduction will make things work at the same power. CPU's and GPU's reclock ext

I do not believe they were asking for CAMM as replacement for soldered RAM, but as an upgrade for DIMMs in desktop. CAMM is touted as being better than DIMMs when it comes to signal integrity and possible speed. Soldered of course beat any

To keep an actual URL for later you'd have to write it down or take a picture of it (which also works for the QR code, either by following it later or keeping the tab open). URL's aren't human-readable or memorizable, nor is

Just because you can drive 140km/h doesn't mean you should - ignoring everything else, it's noisy and inefficient in any car. There's also speed limits of 130 down to 80 in many places, which knocks down the average spee
