I really wish adding USB extension cords and switches wasn't such a gamble. Even after you double check all the cables and switches involved use the right dataspeed and power, the setup as a whole might not work for whatever reason.

Latest problem: I got a short USB4 extension cord. After installing it, the devices I have plugged into a USB3 hub no longer connect. Oddly though the hub itself registers on my Mac, but nothing plugged into it. #usb #usbc #cables #tech

Microsoft expects to commercialize MicroLED datacenter cables by late 2027 — expands Hollow Core Fiber deployment, promising 47% faster data transmission and approximately 33% lower latency

The MOSAIC system replaces lasers with cheap MicroLEDs and medical-grade imaging fiber.

There's an unholy, shambling Mouse King on the floor of my vintage computer room.

Oh, it's usb 2.0 so 480 Mbps. #cables #usbc #usb #chargers

This is the weirdest cable I own. It's a retractable USB-C 60W cable with Lightning and USB-A adapters attached. I don't know what its data speed; it might be power only.

The max wattage reduces depending on which adapters you have attached.

I have kept it in my bag as backup charger for a few years. I think I've needed to use it maybe twice.

I've spent like 12 hours this week reorganizing my desk cables. I've made a lot of improvements, cleared room, and added some devices: a new 2 to 1 hdmi switch (expanding a 4 to 1 hdmi switch); a USB4 hub; and a USB-C optical drive.

I'm now able to have both my laptops plugged into everything via just one cable for each. I just toggle a couple of switches to alternate.

I have a few things left to do, but I can't wait to show it off. 🤓
