Realized 99% of all my chargers are USB-C. This can only mean one thing. New USB bout to drop!

latenightnoir wants the D
latenightnoir@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 months ago
I mean… everyone’ll want the D once they’ll standardise it:-?

In all seriousness, this would make the most sense in terms of progression in design. It already sorta’ is just that, but it’s been stepped on.
Hah! Just hit me, if I’d seen a USB-C plug back in the day, my first thought would’ve been “oof, someone isn’t playing bootleg cartridge games for a while!”

My guess is USB D will be one dimensional, ie a cylinder pin, like the good old headphone jack. You can’t plug it with your eyes closed or in the dark

It would be hilarious if they made it exactly like a headphone jack, but the USB-D slot wouldn’t support headphones.

Nope. Micro USB-C.

Let’s not skip Mini USB-C along the way

And they should be secured with thumb screws, like an old parallel cable.

Funnily enough, USB c can also do that.
