There is a "Your mum" joke in there.

Your mum is so fat, that bitcoin miners litigated to keep abusing her power grid.

We also "drop" decisions, which means the total opposite of what you would think.

It means a decision has been made.

Huh. Misschien zat ik vast in een Dunglish vertaalslag.

Edit: Snelle Google laat zien dat we zeker later tot een besluit kunnen komen. We laten ze ook af en toe vallen. We nemen, geven en breken deze ook.

I'm Dutch and we "come to" a decision.

Depending on the license it is published under, you sure can.

I will say that they still store and use your data some way. They just haven't been caught yet.

Anything you have to send over the internet to a server you do not control, will probably not work for a infosec minded legal team.

Not to mention the current degradation of American Freedoms™, and the constant abuse of the American Election System™ by certain actors.

Yeah that is true. But I was more or less portraying that customers gonna custom-er. And PCs will be RMA-ed for stupid reasons no matter what. And usb-a also had customers confused, sure c is worse. But don't make it out to be that a was so magnificent. SuperSpeed, QC, trying to plug the male printer side into the ethernet port, different grades of cables for different speeds, expecting a bump in speed because they bought a 'golden cable' while their pc and peripheral were on usb 2.1, all these things are also in usb a forms.

Because I had all those conversation. The man was aware, yes. But wasn't aware enough and too afraid to lose his precious data. (But wasn't willing to pay for extra drives or remote storage. But that is a different story.)

Don't think this didn't happen for people that wished to copy something from or to an external drive, and RMAd as they found it to be too slow. They plugged it into a black usb 2.0 port instead of a red one because they thought it was dangerous. Ow wait, no. That motherboard manufacturer used green usb ports for USB3.2. What do you mean you didn't try it because you didn't know what they were for? Your hard drive cable has blue plugs, didn't you at least try the blue ports? No? Because there was a lighting bolt printed nearby... I understand you don't want to lose the data. Do you have a backup? ... You should. Ok, well you can test it with the mouse or keyboard. Yes, the top two usb ports do have the icons for those, but that doesn't mean... Oh, you already put the pc in the mail. See you in 2 weeks then.

Also, switchable usb-a is already a thing, but is very flimsy due to the necessity of moving parts.

Mine also did that, but with the added 'benefit' of forgetting how to turn on my graphics card when it did had to wake up at some point without my input.

Fun times...
