A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

At the same time everything that can run on 5v is transitioning to NOT supplying said 5v power converter. I guess we are all supposed to have built in usb power outlets in every room.
You are saying that like avoiding having a box of unused cables in every single household is a bad thing. Including an USB C cable with every device when the average household already has more than an handful of them is wasteful.
I have like one (1) cable that is type C on one end. The rest is mostly type A (including, but not limited to extension cords using USB generation 2), micro, mini to micro or entirely different stuff like SATA, IDE, PC fan cables or Cat5 networking.
