what I've learned from the macbook neo announcement is:

programmers apparently spend most of their time plugging their laptops into walls and then doing wind sprints back and forth over the power cable, so magsafe is the most important possible feature for any computer

tired blip

@khm @bnys Also like, these exist, and are great. I have so many bazillions of these magnetic nubs plugged into every USB-C host port I own (except on the phone nowadays; Qi2/MagSafe charging eliminated the need to care and also metal shavings when welding taught me to stop using them on phones in pockets).

Sure, the laptop looks a bit worse having a magnetic nub sticking out the USB-C port, but these things even carry data lines. I can one-port magnetic dock my laptop FFS, that's way cooler than MagSafe offers.
