Alice Averlong🏳️⚧️this stupid USB drive doesn't work if you jam it into the ethernet port on accident
yet. note to self: make a flash drive that you plug into the ethernet port.
I've already got some of the parts I'd need to make this, thanks to my ongoing "ethernet keyboard" project
that one is currently on hold thanks to my roommate's new terminal having a broken "M" key
(I loaned her the last PS/2 keyboard I have on hand)
how do you think things are going in the alternate universe where instead of USB, we standardized on ethernet?
external peripherals plug in over ethernet, and just communicate over tcp/ip. usb hubs? you just use ethernet hubs. you recharge your phone and laptop and ebook over PoE.
There's PoE powerbanks and many people keep them in their purse/bag
