  • The issue will be less about “range” and more about being able to go through a wall. Higher frequency makes for shorter radio waves that are closer together. The more this is done, the less it can go through solid objects and still be decipherable.

    It’s like a sound wave. That big low frequency bass sound can shake your walls while playing from in your neighbors house. You can’t make out or hear a single word being sung, though. Frequency is too high to make it through to you.

    This tech can be nicely used for wireless VR and maybe a couple other things that need to move data at super low latency at a local level, but beyond that, it will be kind of useless for anything over the next decade.














  • You can browse digg and reddit without an account.

    I agree with some quality over quantity, but we really need a bigger base than 50k to get more people on. With only 50k there’s pretty much no user base for any instances\topics that aren’t very popular.

    For instance, there’s no user base for an instance about yo-yo’s here. But reddit is so big that \throwers has a subscriber count as large as the entire user base of Lemmy. We don’t need 50,000,000 people here, but having a couple million would make a world of difference.
