This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Man, you are the superior one, because you are still using a real Computer

[–] Matriks404@lemmy.world 9 points 5 hours ago (4 children)

I just have USB-C to USB-A adapter, for this kind of problems, and the reverse adapter as well.

[–] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 1 points 7 minutes ago

I have an email account for this kind of problems

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

You can also just get flash drives that are usb c. Even though I'm not a Mac guy, I thinks it's been over 10 years since I've owned a computer (Inc phone) that doesn't have usb c

[–] Tikiporch@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Look at Mr. Two Dongles over here.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 1 points 3 hours ago

It's good for phones as well

[–] Aeri@lemmy.world 12 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Just get a usbC flash drive. USB C is actually pretty good and you can easily get one that has both a and c.

I just dislike how easy to bend and break it looks.

[–] Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 minutes ago

Its studier then a I find weirdly enough.

[–] dan69@lemmy.world 20 points 8 hours ago

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 21 points 9 hours ago (4 children)

Americucks and their Apple.

[–] Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 minutes ago

Could you be more of a racist cuck shit stain. Go fuck off with that attitude.

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 1 points 22 minutes ago

Android and Microsoft are in majority use globally, but truth be told they're all faceless tech companies run by billionaires who want to feed their never ending greed.

[–] DillDough@lemmy.zip -1 points 33 minutes ago

Damn look at you being every bit as ignorant and arrogant as the American average. I'm impressed.

[–] Ostrichgrif@lemmy.world 19 points 7 hours ago

Can't be an American story because Huawei is banned in the USA 🥹

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 7 points 8 hours ago (5 children)

I'm honestly kinda shocked we've not managed to bridge the airdrop gap.

Quickshare is hit or miss

Wetransfer wasn't bad but didn't like corporate networks.

Dropbox and Bitwarden send are OK, but you have to email/sms links.

We should have blue tooth beacons and 900mhz Halow by now.

I use LocalSend. It apparently works on Macs too but I've never tried that. Windows/Linux seems to work fine though!

[–] FrChazzz@lemmus.org 5 points 3 hours ago

I use LocalSend ALL THE TIME between my Linux machines and my iOS devices. It's faster than AirDrop.

[–] arcolgy@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

I can say LocalSend from iOS to Fedora works flawlessly.

[–] nicerdicer@feddit.org 8 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

There is a way to share files across and between all platforms (Windows, MacOS, iOS, Android, Linux):

Local Send

As long as you are in the same network as the recipient you can share everything across this app. There are no limitations in file type or size. I use this app constantly to send files from phone to laptop or PC, and I can highly recommend it. It's free.

The recipient doesn't even need the app, as you can provide a qr code that can be scanned by the recipient from your phone to start the download of the shared file(s).

I just send a link to a public folder in my Nextcloud. You can also add huge files to your email with the Nextcloud plugin in Thunderbird. Still have to send a link but best option for me so far.

If I'm in a situation where it's Apple or failure, I will gladly fail.

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

They have a lot of nerve using a USB standard that's only 12 years old

[–] Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org 0 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

USB-A is the common standard. Most devices are made with USB-A compatibility. Most portable media are USB-A.

I'm not even going after the vast majority of my hard stops when I pick technology, like the fact that there's no proper (S)VGA and no full-size DisplayPort (and I mean proper DisplayPort, not an "HDMI" plug into a DisplayPort interface), or the lack of a hardware switch to fully disable power to all onboard radio and modem devices.

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

So mad that my modern laptop doesn't have a DIMM port, how am I supposed to use my 1992 era keyboard?

You mean DIN, not DIMM. DIMM is RAM. DIN is PS/2 and others. As far as how I use my old boards and trackballs, PS/2 to USB-A 1.0.
