Bragging rights, amarite?

Well, at least for the time being. The article did suggest that it’s a step in an interesting direction. No guarantees though.

it’s important to clarify that this does not stream VR games—only the sorts of games you would play on a traditional 2D display like a computer monitor or a TV

Saved you a click. You’re welcome.

Oh, I thought 486 was a 16 bit processor. My bad.

I wonder if that includes all 16 bit processors.

Because you bypassed the PD chip. With great current comes great responsibility.

While you’re at it, consider dropping to just 100 mV and keeping the power at 60 W to see what happens. Should be interesting.

That is a solution. Haven’t really seen any comprehensive labels that would clearly indicate all the capabilities of the cable. Maybe there’s a thunderbolt logo, maybe 100W is written on it? If you’re lucky. Definitely can’t have both at the same time though. I guess that leaves me with approximately zero cables I’ll be buying in the future.

Have a look at this for instance. If a charger manufacturer can’t be bothered to put any useful labels on the cables, what do you think anyone else will do?

It’s a 60 W cable, so how about you write 60 W on it, so that the people who bought your 100 W charger won’t be disappointed? Too much effort, I guess.

That’s not the problem. Lack of labels is. You need to have a cable tester to figure out which one of your many C-C cables is best for a particular purpose.

Rule 1: never read the article

No prompt. No warning. No consent.

This was not a bug. It was a deliberate product decision.

Yeah… too many rhetorical devices. A human writer would notice that it’s getting a bit excessive.
