Comment on Why do (desktop) PC have so few USB ports ?
Ziggurat@sh.itjust.works 11 months agoI have to think really hard about what I would do with 7 slots.
This is roughly what is plugged to my PC
-
Keyboard,
-
Mouse
-
Headset
-
Joystick
-
Rudder pedals for flight sim (OK that one is a bit specific)
-
Audio interface (OK another one a bit specific)
-
Webcam (which isn’t even always on)
-
USB 2 wire to load/connect some devices
-
USB C loose wire to load/connect some device
-
USB stick/hard drive on a case by case basis

Why would you need usb headset when you have audio interface?

Audio interface is great to plug the guitar to the PC, and is used when I put sound the speaker. Headset (which is actually a wireless USB, It would make sense to update to Bluetooth) is used when doing voice call/chat(A decade back, I was living abroad, and playing TTRPG through voice chat, got the habit to use a wireless USB headset at this time, but indeed, it’s something I could rationalize considering that I don’t use it much anymore)

I find wireless USB to be superior to Bluetooth, probably just because windows and Linux don’t handle Bluetooth audio right

Why use an audio interface when he can just use USB? Some people don’t give a fuck. Stop being such a snob ffs
