I ll procrastinate to whether to shoot the right one or the left and not even get that done.

It is just not one observation that the new assumption has to fit. There are multiple options that fit some but not others, dark matter fits most we just don't know what it's made up of.

Would be cooler if u do it in C

For a while I had it as my recovery partition on my hard disk. Maybe i ll do it again someday.

All the news pieces I have heard and read mentioned that you have to buy a different cable to get USB 3 speeds. None of the reviewers could test it with a non Apple certified cable as it was a launch event.

My opinion is based on the scumminess of tech companies.

If you are sure that is a lie and any USB-C cable would work please share your source. Till then I won't trust Apple to do right by the consumers.

Well there are more USB-C devices than lightning.

USB-C has higher transfer rates if the device supports USB 3 standard. Since it will have multiple serial connections as compared to a single in USB 2. Since lightning had only 4 pins it couldn't go beyond USB 2.

Same is the matter along with USB-C PD chip. It has to support and negotiate faster charging with the charger. This can be and as far as I know Apple will be restricted to Apple certified crap.

a port designed for general purpose use that has a bunch of delicate pins and a plastic tongue, to replace lightning, a much simpler port designed to go in pockets.

This will ultimately make you unhappy.

Android phones have been using it I think for the last 8 years. We do have pockets and keep our phone without covering the port. I still have a cable bought 4 years back that still works across multiple phones.

Well EU is not the only market for Apple.

The company is not known for having a plethora of ports catering to multiple generations of connector technologies. Instead, when Apple picks a standard, it tends to go all in.```

Yet it offers USB-C for some of its products while not for others. iPad, MacBook has had USB-C for sometime now. It is not that Apple knew that it was a better option than whatever lightning was.

It's unreasonable to assume that Apple would restrict the cables that can be used in a standard USB-C port. The USB-C standard is built on the principle of universal compatibility. Restricting this would not only break with the standard but also limit the very advantages that have made USB-C popular among consumers and manufacturers alike.

Apple only provides usb 3.1 speeds on iPhone Pro and only if you buy a new cable from Apple. The supplied cable is only USB 2.0 . We just have to wait and see if Apple does or doesn't allow third party non Apple certified cable capable of supporting USB 3.1 to work on iPhone Pro. Whereas regular iPhone has been knee capped by keeping the same slower cable. Merely changing the connector to finally being modern.

Summers in Australia are supposed to be very hot. So I would suggest cold lager and shorts.

Need an Australian to confirm.

Flatpaks the best way.
