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.

Mr_Blott ,

My wife and I made a conscious decision never to have kids.

A) Because it’s the most environmentally damaging thing you can do and

B) If they were starved of oxygen at birth, then inhaled too many traffic fumes, they’d post comments like your infantile gobshite

Rand0mA , to asklemmy in What purpose would this be used for?

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.

theKalash , to asklemmy in What purpose would this be used for?

To connect two USB-A ports.

Basically the same as a USB-A to USB-A cable, just really short.

BorgDrone ,

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.

theKalash ,

USB-A to USB-A cables do not exist

wtf are you talking about, of course they do.

BorgDrone ,

Show me where in the USB standards these are specified.

theKalash ,

They cables and exist and they work. So being “specified” doesn’t mean jack shit.

BorgDrone ,

They might sometimes work. They aren’t guaranteed to work.

This is like saying that a building isn’t a building if it’s not up to code

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.

BorgDrone ,

But those are actually part of the standard.

evidences ,

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.

BorgDrone ,

You can find compliance requirements in the document linked here: usb.org/…/usb-type-c-connectors-and-cable-assembl…

You want to look at table 3-6 for requirements for USB-C to legacy USB adapters.

SpaceNoodle ,

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.

guidedlight ,

USB-A to USB-A cables do exist.

I have seen many (very cheap) peripherals use USB-A sockets. I figure those sockets must be a few cents cheaper than alternatives.

BorgDrone ,

And there was a USB certified logo on these cables and devices?

ninjan ,

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

See: cheapo video capture card for work, other side is just HDMI-IN and OUT

They shouldn’t exist but don’t mean they don’t when you get the cheapest little devices you can find

BorgDrone ,

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.

BorgDrone ,

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.

Z4rK , to asklemmy in What purpose would this be used for?

I’ve used them for extension, as it allows you to attach a second, regular USB cable to it.

salton ,

Yeah, these kinds of little gendered connectors seem pointless until you absolutely need them for something specific then they’re priceless.

moody ,

They’re not priceless, they’re $3.00

geophysicist ,

It’s a banana, how much could it cost?

MotoAsh ,

In this case, less so, because any normal A to A cable would do the same thing, just with more room to spare.

Agreed in general, though. I have so many random audio and video adaptors that I’ve used a surprising number of times.

Summzashi ,

It’s supposedly cheaper than a cable.

iAmTheTot ,
@iAmTheTot@kbin.social avatar

Well, what do you mean by "regular"? The cable would need to be female on at least one end, which I usually see in... USB extension cables.

LesserAbe ,

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.

Polar ,

Meanwhile I have 25ft cables running my large format vinyl printers lol

sysadmin420 ,

My large format vinyl printer uses Ethernet. TIL there are USB vinyl printers. What kind of printer do you have? Latex 260 here

squiblet ,
@squiblet@kbin.social avatar

We had a 53" US Cutter and it attached to the computer by USB. If we're talking about the same thing.

sysadmin420 ,

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.

BigDanishGuy ,

And that max length goes down with each coupling.

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.

DaPorkchop_ ,

That said, there are “active” USB extension cables which draw current from the power lines and use it to boost the signal along the data lines

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.

Cqrd ,

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.

@retrolasered@lemmy.zip avatar

I suspect there are enough feral cats for that to make no real difference at all

SpaceMan9000 ,

Depends on where you live, some countries sterilize wild cats which makes a huge dent in the wild cat population.

Up to the point where organizations are importing cats from different countries.
