pointless
The last time I was this early US never had a first lady with nude
pictures.
she has nude pics?
Imagine using that cheap piece of … while having your mac on the lap. All
those dongles and adapter are a total failure in a long run.
+Trusteft It’s the ports I’m worried about, not the dongles. Good luck with
replacing the only USB-C port on MacBook 12.
+The Black Pearl I would never buy a machine with only one port. I am not
THAT stupid, plus I have decades of experience with computers. I use USB
hubs on all my computers, So that I don’t wear the computers’ ports out.
+Trusteft Have you ever used the new usb type C port? It’s not like a
regular usb type A or B, more like micro usb but even worse. They are
shorter, very delicate and less sturdy. I don’t think they can be a sane
replacement for a standard PC-laptop-style power charger port, not to
mention Apple magsafe. Especially if you use your macbook as an ultra
portable device and connect and disconnect cables many times a day.
+The Black Pearl I haven’t used a type c USB yet.
Regarding magsafe, I never used one either. It bemuses me how many people
swear by it, usually with something like “it has saved my macbook many
times”. I often wonder if these people are morons. NON magsafe ports are
the norm for decades for laptops, while obviously accidents can and do
happen, relying on it to not have your laptop smashed to pieces
sounds…like perhaps these people need to start using something else,
perhaps a desktop computer, or perhaps stop having the power cable wrapped
around their legs. I am relatively new to the world of laptops, I only got
my first laptop 15 years ago, I never ever ever dropped it or otherwise
damaged my laptop for any reason, including having trouble with the power
cable…
It just feels silly to have to rely on magsafe to keep it safe, you know?
+Trusteft That’s true. Many people love the ‘safety’ feature, but for me
it’s just that comfort of using it. Thanks to the magnetic parts on both
sides you can always easily find the right position in one single attempt
and without scratching the metal chassis. It doesn’t matter if you’re in a
dark conference room – you don’t have to take a closer look to plug it in.
It’s hard to believe Apple is abandoning such a convenient and
well-received innovation.
looks cheap af
yesterday i saw a dude with the new macbook and he had 3 dongles sticking
out lol
The all in one dock seems much better and easier to work with.
Which size Apple Watch and which series do you usually use?

Just thinking about the number of adapters and cables and the choices and
combination of them will you drive you crazy enough. And I thought Apple
was all about simplicity.
