Spooky Phijkchu Oct 30, 2018 9:42 PM banned-users

I think it works for USB-c at a lower USB spec

taxes Oct 30, 2018 9:42 PM banned-users

why does apple need a proprietary usb-c

Spooky Phijkchu Oct 30, 2018 9:42 PM banned-users

Surprisingly, thunderbolt is way better

legorhin Oct 30, 2018 9:42 PM banned-users

more money

Spooky Phijkchu Oct 30, 2018 9:43 PM banned-users

I'd be down with Apple pushing Thunderbolt everywhere

taxes Oct 30, 2018 9:45 PM banned-users

legorhin Oct 30, 2018 9:46 PM banned-users

Spooky Phijkchu Oct 30, 2018 9:46 PM banned-users

Spooky Phijkchu Oct 30, 2018 9:46 PM banned-users

I'd be fine if everything went to them

taxes Oct 30, 2018 9:46 PM banned-users

taxes Oct 30, 2018 9:46 PM banned-users

whats the point of calling multiple cords "USB"

legorhin Oct 30, 2018 9:46 PM banned-users

Spooky Phijkchu Oct 30, 2018 9:46 PM banned-users

Sure Leg

taxes Oct 30, 2018 9:46 PM banned-users

legorhin Oct 30, 2018 9:47 PM banned-users

USB has to do with the wires inside the cable

Spooky Phijkchu Oct 30, 2018 9:47 PM banned-users

Well, it used to Leg

Spooky Phijkchu Oct 30, 2018 9:47 PM banned-users

They changed it back with USB type-B
