hobbesmaster posted:the problem is that 5G refers to a specification for a variety of related wireless technologies. the IoT stuff is part of LTE and was carried forward into the 5G standards. in fact, basically ALL of LTE is included in “5G”. 5G FR2 is the stuff up in the 25GHz+ range and is LoS only as you say. it lets you claim ridiculous speeds, but is only really good for fixed wireless. The “bread and butter” is still FR1 which is basically LTE with more modulations allowed and better implementations of stuff like carrier aggregation. That’s all boring though and doesn’t sell phones So either way, going conspiracy over 5G towers is silly because it's just slightly faster LTE or it's line of sight and basically useless as a result. Good thing about the weather at least, I remember that being discussed as a possible issue early on but I guess it could be something where someone later looked at it and went ok never mind this won't actually be a problem. If you use the 5G stuff as a step-off to talk about the societal ramifications of trying to connect every device together so you can harvest all of the data I'm down with that. Kinda Trueanon's thing for me has always been them taking the obvious birdbrained conspiracy stuff from the Q set and going "ok they're insane but there's a grain of truth in here, lets expand on that"

Shipon posted:That episode ironically kinda bought the marketing lies about 5G that the cell companies want to push on you, that it's gonna magically enable the internet of things or whatever. It's not gonna do any of that poo poo, signal penetration is gonna be worse and it's just a waste of spectrum and will potentially gently caress with weather forecasting. the point is more that when you complain about the corporate owned tracking chips and their obvious backdoors being embedded in every article of clothing, every book, every funko pop, that then you'll be dismissed as one of those 5G kooks. it doesn't matter if the technology actually will deliver, the label will.

luckily even the “cheap” IoT radios are still waaaay too expensive for stuff like that

Does anyone else use the Pocketcast app or their website to listen to poo poo on their PC? for some reason with the web page on chrome, CTH's main stream keeps stopping with an error every ~2-9 minutes requiring to re-hit play, but blackwolf feeds, trueanon, cn, dick wolff, death/corner, etc all works smoothly without a problem. maybe I need to link it to a different RSS feed but no idea why it would just be one. I downloaded the windows store app and seems to fix the problem but holy hell this thing is so laggy it makes old Steam look super responsive. and yeah the WW88 episode is very good.

I run into this problem all the time on the webapp and I still haven't found a solution. Apparently for android devices you can try turning off a battery optimizing setting and see if that helps. Speaking of pocketcast problems, the big issue I keep on running into is that sometimes podcasts just won't play in pocketcasts. If I go to their source and play they work just fine. I haven't found any solution to that either.

Apparently for android devices you can try turning off a battery optimizing setting and see if that helps. Reporting in as someone who uses an app called PocketFM (free, with a pro version that you don't really need imo). The app is usually pretty steady, if you don't ask it to do anything out of the ordinary and don't mind the occasional weirdness anyway. I think podcast tech itself is a little dated these days, given that it's mostly RSS. And, well, quote:Initial release RSS 0.90 (Netscape), March 15, 1999; 21 years ago
