After reading some on the EU mandate to provide a USB-C charging port, I wonder how many tech companies are only going to use it for charging and still provide other ports.

I also think that in light of USB-C issues, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB-C#Co , there needs to be additional wording to enforce compatibility. A new version of the standard, or a different standard. A lack of compatibility enforcement allows vendors to basically defeat the intent of the EU ruling, and leaves consumers at risk.

The lengths that the GOP will go to act against the will of the people always makes me wonder how they continue to get elected. I know the answer always boils down to the Christian God, lies about gun rights, and unthinking nationalism, but is the USA really that dumb? The polls say we're not as a majority, but that's mostly due to concentration in urban areas due to .

If you're into crypto and you don't know who the sucker is, you're it.
