Re: newbie Bluetooth questions
For a nano-second Gnome Bluetooth Setting ( from top right corner ) says connected, but then disconnects and never reconnects. The spinning thing goes on forever like The Energizer Bunny, searching for devices and list several unknown devices that are light grey and can't be clicked on.

Re: newbie question about version numbers of Linux software
It looks like most of the bumps in the version numbers of the specific games that I have installed are just adding or updating the languages translations. But after tinkering with the game-launcher Athenaeum for a few hours, I do not yet understand it very well. There is an "Update All" feature in the menu, and it goes to the various flathub repos and updates the game.( And it displays a silly message that is different each time you update, For example, "Ringing Cowbells". For example, Minetest game is updated to the June 10th version and most of the Gnome games are around March, 2020, and most of the other games I have are late 2019 versions. But Gnome software is confused about that for some reason. I think what I am saying is that if you have to have the nightly version of the game, then don't use Athenaeum as your game-launcher. But if you want to easily scroll through a list of 100 installed games, the games do launch quickly. I guess Athenaeum would be something to put on a kid's Linux computer.

Re: newbie Bluetooth questions
My motherboard ASUS P8Z77 allegedly is Bluetooth 4.0 compatible. BIOS says enabled. Gnome 3.37.3 says "paired" but not connected. Both my iPhone8 and Android cheap phone connected while wearing a blind-fold on. ( Just being sarcastic ). As I said, I have never used Bluetooth on Linux, and seldom ever used it. But I got a fancy Bluetooth speaker for my birthday, and wanted to listen to some groovy tunes. By the way, my Rawhide update today seemed to go well ( rc4 of the kernel and all the new Gnome stuff ).

The motherboard has both legacy and eufi on it. The original drive was partitioned as msdos and Fedora was installed as legacy boot. The new NVMe drive requires EUFI to be seen by the bios and by Fedora . Fedora requires gtp to install to an NVMe drive Even though I knew it would not work, I tried clonzilla'ing the two. The issue stands that the new drive has to be gpt, have a 1 mb empty space at the beginning to accommodate the EUFI boot stuff and another partition for Fedora to handle the EUFI boot stuff I currently have the NVMe drive with Xfce and FC32 installed on it. But I now have the bios back to legacy and the NVMe drive has disappeared again (which is what I temporarily want). The scope of this server has changed dramatically, so reinstalling might no be such a bad idea. It would dump a lot of sins of the past. I just was to restore users, groups, /home, /export, samba, ftp and I am good to go.

You can use the container's sysctl.conf to disable ipv6. DNS could be specified *within* the container's /etc/resolv.conf. You could also insert it using the profile's *runcmd* feature. As to UUID of the nic: I don't remember seeing the ability to assign UUIDs to devices using lxc but is probably doable from the profile.

I assume that you're also doing some DC blocking and signal attenuation, because simply connecting a sound card line out to a microphone input is just not compatible. Of course a decent USB outboard audio interface can have a line in and line out. Going all analogue, and pointing a microphone at a laptop's speaker, one in each laptop directions, could be a nice visual demonstration of wireless transmission.
