I hate what happened to USB-C but it's also the kind of shit I would come up with if you made me work on something I don't give a fuck about and I don't know what that means. "Just add another circuit so the host knows what voltage it can use, power it with those reserved pins nobody uses" lol
I'm so insulted, a proper USB-C cable needs at least 40kB flash, but a few years ago I had to make firmware for something with less than 1kB
USB-C is like if someone was trans in a transmedicalist way
you know how retvrn guys are willing to churn butter or whatever even though it sucks? I think this video made like that but for USB 2.0
80 fucking components on each device for a fully spec compliant 3.2 gen 2 port
