Can you describe your setup when doing this? It's also annoying and irritating having half the comment ignored. Don't care about the testimony unless it's backed up.
1. Open http://borismus.github.io/sonicnet.js/emoticons on Dell
2. Open http://borismus.github.io/sonicnet.js/emoticons on MacBook Air
3. Click on an emoticon
4. Observe the corresponding icon appear on the other system across the room
I made no changes, didn't turn off the music my phone was playing to a bluetooth speaker, etc. This is using the built-in speakers & mics at unadjusted volume levels – the only change I made was unmuting one of the two laptops.
This doesn't mean that BadBIOS is true — only that it's annoying and tedious to play the skeptic with shoddy logic and trust-me assertions being presented as facts.
