The hardest part of it all is keeping grub's sh*t together.

For the most part, yeah. Then again, your other option is to buy one from Amazon which will get you โ€ฆ the exact same piece of crap for over twice the price. These things are pretty simple - it passes the lines through with a dropping resistor on the power line to measure amps. Hard to screw it up IME.

A lot of the time, what these "multi-port" chargers do is they have one port hooked up to the fancy multi-voltage converter, and then all the other ports are ganged up to one 5v converter. Doing anything fancier would cost just as much as two power supplies. If two beefier-than-a-phone-charger power supplies is what you want, there isn't really a better solution than buying two separate power supplies.

Get a "usb-c voltage tester and ammeter etc..." at temu for about $5. It'll tell you what voltage was negotiated (should be 15v), and how many amps are flowing (1 to 3 is good).

I just picked up one of those Latitudes too, and sent it back. I was not impressed with how dell "refurbished" it - it was chock full of dust and the display hinges were practically falling off. To top it off, the battery wouldn't charge. Nobody spend 2 seconds looking over this dud before they shipped it to me.

It's the year of Linux on the Linux Desktop.

The ios app is the only way that I can command the headphones to connect to a second device. When 2 device mode is going on, I have no idea what the connection is like in ios but Linux plainly tells me that it can only do SBC and SBC-XQ. When I turn off 2 device mode, and pair it again, LDAC is finally offered. My 1000xm4 doesn't offer AAC, I don't think I have anything around that sinks AAC. My Steamdeck can work as an Opus sink lol.

Oh LDAC conflicts with mutli-connection? That's why I can't get it on my 1000xm4?? It's good to finally have an answer.

Snake, place your controller on the floor.

I'm going to move it with my mind
