Yes, a file full of zero bits transfers faster over USB2.0 than a file full of one bits.

I've known this forever but it still feels ridiculous when you actually test it and it's true!

USB truly is cursed.

@lina But... why? 😳

@to Because USB 2.0 has to throw in an extra dummy zero bit every 6 consecutive one bits or else it loses its place in the data!

@lina @to hey undyne what is one more than the number of consecutive 1 bits that can be sent over usb 2.0 before sending a dummy 0 bit
