Oh nice, that’s something.

That’s still only 3 simultaneously if I saw that right. My old Lenovo laptop had 3 USB-A 2.0 ports, 2 x USB-A 3.0, RJ45 and HDMI. That was gold. Everything that comes now is a bloody chore.

It really is for me. Those things stick out way too far and might work alright in stationary mode, but while on the go they break easily (speaking from experience) and slip out all the time.

It really is a big deal for me, they stick out too far and are making the whole setup flimsy.

I agree with USB-C, but there are still a million USB-A devices I need to use, and I can’t be bothered to buy adapters for all of them. And a USB hub is annoying.

Plus, having 1-2 USB-C ports only is never gonna be enough. If they are serious about it, why not have 5?

Most average users consider Microsoft a trusted source, that’s the root cause of a whole lot of crap.

That’s more than 3% of the user base. 0.5% is considered sufficient for statistical relevance.

The ones with EOL 2015, fair play. But May 2024 isn’t all that long ago.

Edit: Looks like those were launched in early 2015. I guess requesting users to update devices after 8+ years might not be too far fetched.

Can highly recommend ASUS, most of their models can be flashed with custom firmware that is supported beyond EOL. And their EOL cycle is also pretty long.

It’s the same crap as Twitter, I don’t get why people ever used it in the first place.

No, but if I use a service to solve a specific problem only to see the need to have a failover in place regardless, I might as well not use the service.

Isn’t CF advertising themselves as the solution to needing multiple DNS’ with their failsafes, switchovers and load balancing?

If I need to maintain multiple anyway, what’s the benefit of CF to begin with? There are a million CDNs out there I could use instead, if I still have to maintain the network architecture.
