    To be fair (pun intended) very, very few people ever use the USB-C port for anything other than charging and maybe syncing photos to a pc.

    The connector itself costs like 8 bucks, I don’t know how much more expensive it would be for them to design the signal integrity in their motherboard, required to carry the video stream.

    Still, for the price and for the market segment they’re targeting, this and the lack of a 3.5mm jack for sound is inexcusable.





  • I was once fired from a helpdesk job because a security guy overheard me summarizing a Kevin Mitnick book to a coworker, thought I was planing to do what I was explaining and notified my supervisor, who informed his supervisor and so on until it went all the way to the fucking CEO and back.

    I was summoned to HR the next day and I had to explain in writing to 5 different people that they’re all idiots and show them the book I was referring to.

    I applied for a different position in the same company 3 months later and was hired for another 8 months.
