    It’s not so much the connector; but the power delivery standard.

    Type A maxes out at 5v 3a = 15w and is often limited closer to 5v 1a = 5w for public-use charging ports.

    Type C and its power delivery standards can get as high as 50v 5a = 250w (though usually closer to 20v 5a = 100w)

    Then again… The negotiation for what voltage/amperage to supply happens over the data lines which you don’t want connected on a public charging port…

    I dont really see a good solution here.



  • I tend to just use FolderSync myself. To avoid battery issues, I have a schedule for most folders; but my DCIM/Pictures folders sync immediately upon changes. I then have a widget on my homepage that triggers a ‘sync all’. Anytime I need files synced immediately, it’s easy enough to click that button.

    The morning bus just sucks to get off, but I get on at one of the first stops so I pretty much always have a seat. I even nap most of the way there as it’s a ~40min ride.

    The ride home I’ve often gotta stand for the first 3-4 stops until I can get a seat. Then I can just peacefully watch youtube or scroll lemmy, ignoring the world around me for a bit.

    For a flat $70/mo for unlimited rides; it’s not a bad deal really. I’d rather this than driving and being frustrated dealing with the morons on the road; while paying significantly more between car payments, insurance, maintenance, and gas.

    We’ve only got busses. The climate control is usually pretty good though; decent AC in the summer and heated in winter. Just the occasional shitty driver that doesn’t set it correctly.

    Tbh the worst part is inconsolable crying babys. That’s been pretty frequent this summer; but isn’t usually a problem throughout the rest of the year. Otherwise people just keep to themselves, it’s pretty peaceful.

    I remember doing this with a group of friends at one point. It was late at night, and we wanted to make as much noise as possible; so we were absolutely pounding on people’s doors before running and hiding in their bushes or around the corner. Wherever we could be out of sight, but still see their reaction as they opened the door and raged into the darkness.

    One of my friends decided to kick one door, and managed to break the latch literally kicking the front door in… (must have been pretty weak/damaged already, we couldn’t have been more than 13yo at the time) We didn’t manage to hide in time and got chased for like 6 blocks before the guy was too tired to chase us anymore and we lost him.

    (I’ll note this was not in America; firearms were not a concern in the slightest)
