SLC NAND reborn: tomshardware.com/reviews/…

gamersnexus.net/guides/3453-why-usb-type-c-isnt-on-more-cases

USB 3.1 cables are much more expensive and labor-intensive to manufacture than you might think.

Especially if it uses a Type-C connector.

> For Type-C cables, this process is extremely slow and time consuming, as the complexity of the wiring bogs-down the process. One worker can only route the wires for 6 cables per hour [...]

Wow. Ten minutes of manual labor.

That is a lot of work for an unassuming USB cable and connector.

And that's just putting the connector onto the cable.

@JorgeFernándezHidalgo pfft, all us geniuses in this room have at least 370IQ

> In my store there were two breads that tasted exactly the same. Like you couldn't tell the difference if you tried.
One cost 3 francs other was 7. 3 franc bread died shortly after, because swiss people don't like to buy cheap stuff because they think it must be a scam.

Uhhh

@allquixotic afaik, almost every modern browser supports marquee

Yep, just confirmed chrome still does
