I sometimes feel like it’s the opposite. Memes and images of people being stupid while wearing the damn thing make me feel like people are trying to increase the stigma around it to kill it. I mean… this meme is showing the character completely unaware of their situation and doesn’t make the product seem good at all.

It’s just as exhausting as you’d imagine teenage contrarians would be.

Only if you admit that this is just a giant boogeyman to scare stupid people. More children under age 18 got boob jobs than all “gender-affirming care” that you’re against combined last year. That also doesn’t include other permanent body modifications like lip filler, vaginoplasty, butt implants, or the like. If you’re going to pretend it’s about “constructing a neo-vagina”, then you have to explain why your outrage only targets one specific demographic.

It’s not “common” in the sense that a USB-C connector can be all kinds of different implementations of the USB2/3 standards. To use your example, using a USB-C charger other than the default Nintendo one can short out a Switch completely and kill it. Compared to products that use Lightning, the number out there dwarves the current USB-C landscape. There are tons of devices that still use USB-A and USB-B and USB-C hubs don’t really exist.

It is not artificially limited. It’s using the board from last year’s Pro model. It doesn’t have a USB3 interface.

USB-C is still not “common”. There are now all kinds of different cables with nothing in common except a form factor. Also, USB-C came out 2.5 years after lightning and didn’t match feature parity until the Thunderbolt spec and that was 5 years later. At that point, accessories and cables that used the Lightning port numbered in the millions, if not billions.

Also, what do you mean? The new phones support USB3…

Wow. What a ringing endorsement. 😬

SBR’s hasn’t been the same since they swapped out the cane sugar for HFCS.
