slaps roof :this bad boy can burn so many tax payer dollars.
Every time I see a US aircraft carrier my extreme patriotism comes out. I mean, 1 of them fuckers is the 3rd most powerful Air Force in the world wherever it goes, and we have like 11 of them. Each one rolling in a strike group that’s filled with destroyers, subs, cruisers and support craft. I’m not always happy with the whole military spending we do here but damn if it isn’t the ultimate power projection. Makes my freedoms boner stand at attention.
I work at a daycare. Today I had to write an incident report about a kid who tantrumed so hard she hurt herself. The little dipshit reacted to me telling her she can’t drink window cleaner by ragdolling with enough force to leave a bruise on her forehead. Her mom did not seem surprised when she heard what happened.
Stg children will actively try to kill themselves over nothing.
And what exactly do I lose? The approval of some miserable fuck who I would never want to associate with anyways? Like I give a fuck about a few downvotes from a pile of cucks
Also you telling me to move on is rich considering you’re replying to a 4 day old comment
I’m sorry you don’t understand genetics enough to know that’s not the only way you could end up with kids who don’t look like yourself. Or are totally ignorant of adoption.
Get 2 laptops, put them side by side with usb ports wide open and plug them bitches together. Likely will short with 5v being fed both sides.
But in reality its a usb coupler (plugging together 2x usb extension cables). Not a great lot of use from them in my opinion. I’ve seen shit bodged together in low budget it offices using edge case crap like this.
USB-A to USB-A cables do not exist, the USB standard does not allow them, if you have a cable with two USB-A connectors then it’s not actually a certified USB cable. The same goes for USB extension cables and this adapter. Note how there isn’t a ‘USB certified’ logo on the package.
Or like saying usb-a to usb-c adapters don’t exist because they’re not part of the standard but we all have like six of those damn things even though we’ve never actually bought a single one.
Are they? Everything I can find seems to say they aren’t.
I remember when the first usb-c Macbooks hit stores Apple didn’t have usb-a to c adapters for sale because they weren’t in spec, a lot of reviews mentioned that.
The cables exist; they just don’t follow the standard. I’ve used them when developing consumer electronics: the host controller on the device switches to device mode in the bootloader, allowing a host machine to connect and debug/flash the device.
China stuff loves to slap logos on there that do not apply, so probably without having seen this particular abomination myself. Fake CE markings are super common though.
They do exist, despite the USB standards not allowing them
A USB cable is a cable that conforms to the USB specification. If a cable does not conform to the USB specification then it isn’t an USB cable by definition
I’m not saying a cable with 2 USB-A style connectors doesn’t exist, I’m just saying that it is not a USB cable. Just like a glass of Pepsi is not a glass of Coca-Cola even though it may look like one.
It’s not hard to imagine a product that would require one, though. It’s how every phone charging cable works, just with a different size male USB on one end.

No, it’s exactly not how every phone charging cable works, at least not for non USB-C cables.
Pre-USB-C cables are explicitly unidirectional. In USB there are ‘hosts’ (usually computers) and ‘devices’ (flashdrives, camera’s, mice, keyboards, etc.). The host side always has a female USB-A connector, a device either has a female USB-B connector (if it’s intended to be used with a cable), or a male USB-A (if it’s intended to be plugged in directly into a host, like a flash drive). A real, standard-conformant USB cable can only go from USB-A male to USB-B male (with the addition of USB-C, it can also go from A-to-C, from C-to-B, or C-to-C). Never A-to-A or B-to-B, extension cables (male to female) of any type, A, B or C, are not allowed either.
USB was specifically designed like this so you can never connect a device to a device or a host to a host.
On the host side, you pretty much only see full size USB-A ports. On the device side there are 3 common types of USB-B ports: standard size (you can for example see these on printers and scanners), mini-USB-B used a lot on older phones, and later micro-USB-B. On each side the male part is on the cable, the female part is on the host or device.
Not that you probably need to know this, but for some other stranger: there’s a max functional length to USB cables. At work I remember pulling my hair out troubleshooting a printer until we swapped cables for something shorter.
He said printer though that’s what’s what threw me off. That’s a cutter. My bad I thought he was talking about a USB large format printer, I only replied because I’m looking for a slightly smaller printer for my smaller decals, and I’d be interested in a serial or USB printer.
My PC is in the basement and I’ve got USB and serial going everywhere running different cutters, 3d printers, CNC, etc upstairs and down, also in the garage. Works great.
We have smart boards in most classrooms, but in an entire wing of my department the smart board doesn’t work. Reason? When we built the wing, 8 or 10 years ago, the installers fitted their own low grade plugs on the USB connection for the boards, before figuring out that they snipped the cables too short. Instead of running new cabling the installers then introduced another extension.
Nobody cared to check it out before accepting delivery and my complaints went unheard by management, until it was too late to RMA it.
High rises aren’t really a problem either. I’d wager that agricultural and pest control practices, automobile traffic, and urban sprawl each individually kill orders of magnitude more birds.
By far the biggest killer of birds are cats that people let out of their homes. They kill for fun and they kill so, so many. People really need to stop letting their cats out.
My high rise flats are a problem for that one dumb pigeon that must have been distracted qy some girl pigeons tits or something because it flew straight into the side and died. None of the otheg pigeons have ever done that they may already be in commited relationships
