Because it ruins the beautiful cable design!

Honestly I'm half mocking it but I also think it's true. I genuinely enjoy having a pretty cable, and having text printed on it like they do on CAT cables would make it uglier. It's a legitimate reason.

I think marked USB cables should be available, and I'd like to have some marked and some not in my collection. It's definitely not cool that basically none are marked today.

Edit: genuinely didn't expect to be downvoted for this. Could anyone explain why the downvote? Do you just not think electronics should be pretty?

Take this with a grain of salt.

I think if your device has the right hardware and the right application with the right low-level access, it can tell you most of these things. But a dedicated tester can tell you more.

excuse me, there appears to be a detached cat head in your hand.

Fascinating! Never heard of this before, really exciting to see a hardware-agnostic framework like this take the crown.

that seems to be the consensus, I've accepted it :P

Yeah it seems that way, I realized that after posting but wasn't feeling like editing my comment.

I didn't know TLDR published on PeerTube. Neat! I watch them on Nebula anyway but this is cool to know.

Why "human"? Seems a weird way to phrase it but I can't deny it works.

[–] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 36 points 2 weeks ago

well "skill issue" was one of the options so it might be that

[–] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 2 weeks ago

Okay that does sound pretty awesome for you :D

Depends on the human. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cotard%27s_syndrome

Side note: I am furious that I wasn't able to find the name of this syndrome without ChatGPT. Is this a skill issue or are traditional search engines (in this case DuckDuckGo) just completely useless now?
