I have used them as data cables, such as for migrating Android phones. Don’t remember having any issues.

Haha thanks

I haven’t had that issue for years. From my perspective only the cheap or early cables had issues like that. Not your experience I take it?

I don’t know why but my luck has been nearly opposite to yours. The only thing close I’ve had to your experience was I had a USBC port on my phone get dirty once and I had to clean it out. 0 actual hardware failures and very few charger problems

But it’s not really a failure of the cable. In a perfect world, it possibly plugging in means it works as expected I guess, but I think it’s a better tradeoff to expect users to know that some devices require a bit more power, and have a plug that still works universally. “This charger doesn’t have enough power” is easy enough to be understood by a 90 yo I would think.
Chargers should be labelled with the output they provide (mine are), but you are right, devices probably should be labelled better with what they require.

Chin up, Nederlander. I don’t think you’re ridiculous.

People can hate all they want on USB-C with all these details that may be technically true, but the only issue I’ve had in years is with chargers varying in power output and occasionally that means I try to charge something that either takes forever or never charges. It’s an edge case and I consider it a charger issue, not a cable one…
Life is definitely simpler now with USB-C being pretty standard, and Lightning cables can burn in hell. Those anti-standard bullshits have caused me to buy a dozen of them for friends and test devices (I’m a web dev) and yet I’ve never owned a mobile Apple product and never would. Fuck Lightning – cannot possibly say it enough. I’m glad the EU agrees.

I have had somewhat similar experiences at times, but not as bad as yours I think. My worst one was this woman who kept claiming to almost have arrived as I stood outside in below-freezing temperatures for over 20 minutes to give her free stuff.
Finally left the item on the sidewalk and went inside. 40 minutes later she sent a text thanking me for it. I don’t understand why she lied over and over about her location. So stupid and inconsiderate.

Maybe I just tune out the high prices, but I don’t notice as much of that
- Comment on what 1 week ago:
There’s no “preset range”, but I would agree that if something is worth anywhere near $300, an offer of $20 is akin to saying “come on stranger, I want this for free”

I once had some dude offer me $2K under blue book for a car and then taunt me when I told him it wasn’t a serious offer. “yeah right like you’re ever going to get that for it” he said. Got that price within a week and since I’m petty sometimes, I let him know

If you like their content. For me, it’s like one in 50 items are worth watching, if that. Sorting through the duds costs time and ain’t nobody got time fo dat as far as I am concerned.

But it means most of the conservatives are too afraid to spit their bile.
The conservative community you’re referring to has long been taken over by lefties satirizing conservatives
