@pony You need to start somewhere. Sometimes at the very bottom of the barrel.

@sneak Unless that was irony, I would regret that Mastodon does not have a downvote button. So here you go instead.

@mathias Makes sense. Again I get reminded that to decipher Germanic languages vocabulary is to say the word aloud and then it makes sense:
* German [Fahrt](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Fahrt)
* Dutch [vaart](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/vaart)
Although in neither I heard it used in the meaning of "speed", rather in the sense of journey/navigation.

Re infart/utfart: German Ausfahrt is indeed the word. What got me the first time was the Dutch "uit" ("out" - pronounced exactly the same way) written all around motorways. Took me a while to decipher.

So Happy Fart-ing in the New Year? 😉

@piggo Then [archive.is](https://archive.md/) is your friend. But I guess you know it already...

@piggo I wish foreignpolicy.com came up with some reasonable subscription price, rather than $200/yr 😞 . In my case WaPo would just add to the maelstrom of information coming my way, but solid strategic analyses are precious in these crazy times.

@piggo that's a good deal there.

@mathias what does it mean?

@piggo So your adventure with SDR led you to ADS-B space 🙂 👍

@rjayasinghe poodle fan! 👍

@soundwave Well, connecting 2+ devices on the speaker side is one thing, there are plenty of such gadgets on Amazon. That little broadcast thingy you have at home: is it connected to your TV via Bluetooth, or by a cable?

What I am looking for is a gadget which can connect your two pairs of headphones AND the TV/phone/PC as the audio source on the other side, all by Bluetooth.

## Bluetooth hub/re-broadcaster device - question/request for advice

I would like to get a device which would act as a Bluetooth hub. I want to connect multiple audio sources to it (phone, tablet, laptop) and also multiple speakers (a bunch of low cost Bluetooth speakers at home). I want the thing to handle just one stream at a time. So ideally, whatever is played on the source side (just a "merge" of all the source signals) should be broadcasted to all the speakers. The motivation is to stop playing a discotheque with my little soundbars/speakers and audio sources. It's a bit annoying, so I guess we can do better...

The thing is, I cannot find any device like that. Apparently Bluetooth transceivers act exclusively either in RX xor TX mode, but never simultaneously. I do not care for reasons why that is the case (protocol, single chip, whatever), I would like to get pointers to technology which could do this for me.

**Does such a thing even exist? And if yes, how's it called?**

Thanks for any constructive advice.

By far the largest group are actually Ukrainians, Slovaks come only after that and then finally come Vietnamese. It's been like this since almost 20 years or so.

None of that is surprising to me, but the Mongolians...

@onlmaps I truly did not expect a response 🙂 .

Even though we can't let the creator of this know, let me use this opportunity to thank you for all the fun I am getting from studying the maps you are posting. 👍
