Update: Yes! Seems to be. Calipers confirm the diameter. TYVM!

Thanks. I’ll grab my calipers and confirm if the measurements are correct. Specs say MHF4 is 1.13mm.

That’s not wrong, but in this case, PlatformIO isn’t showing these ads, bit [dot] ly is. AFAIK, only bitly gets the ad money.

It’s the VSCode IDE that does it, it seems.

Ugh…

Lol, of course. I need to do a re-watch.

I’ve heard that before but cannot place it. What is that from?

For best results, it depends on the context.

For example, when I’m dealing with people who cannot (or refuse) to do the simplest of tasks, I’ve found myself muttering “ugh, just read the instructions I wrote you troglodyte”.

Not sure what country, but in the US, wouldn’t that technically be illegal (at least between co-workers)? I know some places, such as call centers, won’t let you speak another language to customers without approval (for liability reasons, I assume).

She would get very angry really fast if she heard anything in a language she didn’t understand.

Karen es una cabrón.

I can’t speak for your situation, but I do know of too many examples of marriages “just because” that made both partners completely miserable for decades. And their disgust at each other definitely was not good for the kid to grow up around.

If she’s someone you could see spending your life with, just not right now, then it’s worth considering. But either way, I would advise against agreeing to a shotgun wedding and leave that decision between you and her.

Sounds like her parents are trying to force you into a shotgun wedding.

Ultimately, it’s up to you if you want to go into a marriage that is very much going to be unhappy (I know currently and grew up around lots of terible pregnancy / stay together for the kids marriages) Personally, I’d just setup child support arrangements and discuss with her what role, if any, I would have in the child’s life and politely, but firmly, tell her parents to fuck off (you’re both adults).

Edit: And if she doesn’t want to have a baby, I would also support and assist with that.

For regular debit/POS transactions, yeah, I think that’s universal. For ATMs, though, I think it depends on the ATM software, right?
Is it only your bank’s branded ATMs that do that?

My credit union doesn’t operate ATMs and just reimburses the fees, so I use any random ATM when I need to do something other than a deposit. Some let me do multiple transactions, some don’t. Some don’t even let me transfer funds, but those are usually the dinky little machines you find in “convenience” locations.

Dell Dimension 2400 or a descendant of that?

That was THE computer to have in college when I went.

No. I’m not, and I don’t think anyone in the comments that I’ve read are saying that either. Geesh!

Stuff ages out. Stuff breaks. Old stuff gets relegated to a drawer or re-purposed. The older stuff doesn’t necessarily get thrown away, but it’s also not something I carry around daily, either.

All that (most?) people here are saying is that when you do buy something new, there’s an expectation that it use the current standard.

Yeah, that’s annoying for sure. I just bought a handful of cables of known specs that “do it all” and it’s been pretty smooth sailing.

They’re all 3ft or 6ft, 100 watt e-marked, and video capable The only one that’s not is my 10ft one - it’s “only” 100 watt rated but doesn’t do video and is limited to USB 2.0 speeds. I only use that one as a power cord for my laptop, though, and it’s bright red so it’s not like I’m gonna mistake it for anything else.

So far, I haven’t had a need to upgrade anything to the new 240 W spec since I rarely use more than 65W.

I"m not so much against it (it was good enough in its time). I’ve just come to appreciate the mostly “universal” aspect of USB-C and being able to grab any cable from my bag without looking or digging and have it be the correct cable (all my cables are 100W and video capable, so no matter my need, it will be the right cable).

In a lot of ways, I now see anything with less than USB-C as being like the old, oddly-sized barrel jack connectors. Yeah, it works. Yeah, it’s fine. But it’s also now an oddball cable I have to carry around.

I’m old and resist the future in a lot of ways, but USB-C isn’t one of them lol.

Same. I went all-in on USB-C about 3 years ago. My house is still cluttered with cables, but at least I can grab any one of them and charge any device.

That’s just for a vendor ID though for data, right? For basic 5V power (non-Power Delivery), they’d just need the socket and a couple of resistors. I’ve got some cheap-ass devices with USB-C, and even disposable vapes (yuck) have USB-C for charging.

I have 4 of them, but they keep getting lost or semi-permanently attached to Raspberry Pis or ESP-32 boards. The rest of my micro-usb devices have largely been phased out.

I could not disagree more lol. Everyone likes to shit on micro USB, but of all the form factor I’ve used over the years. the mini connectors always seemed to wear out the fastest.

I have C->Micro adapters though they aren’t tethered. I’m just spoiled by only carrying C cables in my bag and being able to just grab any cable without looking or digging (they’re all 100W and video-capable except my 10ft one).

Probably, yeah. I was similarly disappointed when my Kobo came with micro USB, but considering I love everything else about it, I gave it a pass. That, and I typically only have to charge it once a month.

I’ve got USB-C to micro adapters, but I’ve only got 4 of them and either keep losing them or they get semi-permanently installed to a Raspberry Pi or something.
