How much of a game changer was USB-C for you, compared to other cables?

  • I have a flashlight/sd card based mp3 player/bluetooth speaker/FM Radio/backup battery that charges with an A->A cable.

    It’s this Product, with a different branding: https://a.co/d/94y3lxc

    • Quick. Someone invent an AI that can block out the orange man’s face everywhere so we don’t have to subject ourselves to it for 4 more years.

  • SO TRUE!

  • Yep, sure we’ve got Mankato, but there’s a reason he was the first democrat elected to congress in forever from CD 1.

    • All of a sudden, Montana — and Senate control — is slipping away from Republicans

  • Then make them own their choices. As long as they can stick with this limbo there’s plausible deniability that no one sees. Or require it to be a speaking filibuster. In Minnesota, the conservatives had control of all the levers until they “caught the car” on banning marriage equality. At a state level, that woke a bunch of complacent people up and now we have a democratic trifecta after a lot of work since then. That can happen at the federal level too and that’s what we are learning from Dobbs.

  • Is accepting someone’s support with literally nothing in trade really “catering to” though?

    • Pretty sound reasoning here.

  • No, the trunk will stop it.

    Also, everyone knows elephants can’t shoot, so why would they need a gun. 🤔

    • Pretty sound reasoning here.

  • Great idea, hey everyone, we’re going to use doingthestuffs dick to stop bullets now. That way your finger doesn’t get stuck in the barrel no matter how smooth it is.

    • Egypt declared malaria-free by World Health Organization

    Jump

  • WOOO!!! Free Malaria in Egypt!!!

  • Unlike a person, a horse’s hoof will totally only fit in an elephant gun or a howizer, everyone knows that the elephant gun bullets only stop if the elephant puts their trunk in the barrel and the horse would need to be on a ladder for the howitzer. Horses can’t climb ladders, silly.

    • Pretty sound reasoning here.

    Jump

  • Sure, but at some point you need to acknowledge that though you can lead a horse to water, you can’t stick their hoof in the barrel of a gun to stop a bullet.

    • Bad news

    Jump

  • 99 ÷ 2 = 92 though, right?

    • Pretty sound reasoning here.

  • One person even noted how kids fingers are smaller and most adult’s fingers wouldn’t fit in the barrel.. lol. That’s what the pinky is for, it’s smol for a reason, duh.

  • Historically (dating back to the 1600s) it could also be used for tithing or taxing one tenth of an amount too. Are you executing their money?

  • I don’t imagine they thought that this would literally decimate their subscriber base.*

    • yes I made the same joke twice in two different communities. It’s not often you get to use the literal definition of decimate.

  • Not even just that, if this decision had been made last January, this wouldn’t be news, but the fact that it was made in the last few days in the run up to the election means that no matter how altruistic their decision was, it’s gonna be viewed in the light of the current moment.

  • Their subscriber numbers have been absolutely decimated by Bezos’ decision.

    • Can you "grow" a human from 2 sets of same sex parent DNA?

  • Hand waving away a lot of the developmental process, you could make a male or female offspring from 2 males or a female offspring from 2 females that would be indistinguishable from the variety in the normal population.
