Hello folk,

there's this annoying thing from Apple in bluetooth management which is hijacking your (paired of course) bt device in an exclusive way.

Is there a way to force bluez (on linux) to really take the lead? I mean, the device is paired and connected to but somehow, only Apple can play on it when around.

Apple having also this fucking habits to reactivate bluetooth and co after 24h. for the convenience of the user or to be user they could track you? :P

thank you

i know, by definition, apple == annoying

Not really. As long as you're not actually playing back anything audible, battery life is the same as when you leave them on and don't play anything.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
