But nowadays the meme are they, selling overprice crap without a simply usb por for 2000 bucks, shit nigga 2000? are you crazy? a family can live with that money nigga.

Just switched from last-gen macbook to new dell vostro. It's not something to be happy about but it doesn't waste 50% CPU on just drawing windows (even with KDE), doesn't heat my left palm as a fucking owen, doesn't make me sit watching gay rainbow circle spinning all the time instead of doing my work. And the best part - it won't became slow piece of shit with an OS update.
Macs, never again.

It's a general USB and 2.4GHz thing.

Most people don't realize this, as they do not use bluetooth and or USB 3 ("muh shekels"-argument).
It happens on regular PCs as well (that's how I found out).

To work around this, you either have to disable xHCI and use USB 2.0 or live with lower bandwidths, reduced range, mouse lag or sound dropouts.

Here is Intels paper on the subject (from 2012, that's how far you are behind modern technology):

> https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/io/universal-serial-bus/usb3-frequency-interference-paper.html
Here is Apples statement (aka. you're placing it wrong):
> https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203729

Another example showing that IT companies are deceiving jews. They charge you hundreds, sometimes thousands, for shit that doesn't work as advertised.

shit sucks. what sucks even more is that appearantly nobody knows, therefore nobody complains

You should try it yourself :^)
>>
>>59642417
Bullshit. Yes, I've seen these claims before. I've seen people in /hpg/ say this is why they don't buy Bluetooth headphones.

I have been using WiFi, Bluetooth and USB3 for years now and I've never had any issues. Copying files from a server to a HDD on my laptop over WiFi is fine. Listening to music while copying files is fine.

Just try it yourself, I'm sure you'll find that copying files to or from a USB 3 HDD has zero effect on WiFi or Bluetooth.

>>59642746
No, but for a different reason. Wired keyboards and mice are much better. They always work. Just take my word for it, I used wireless a keyboard and mouse package I bought for years. Batteries must be charged or replaced and they always die when you're doing something.
