For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

I'm pretty sure you can just buy those ends and slap em on

It's just plastic molding around the connector.

Edit: it would probably help keep the connections stable by minimizing wiggle. Know how in old phones you've sometimes gotta get that plugged in juuuust right? I'd expect this to help prevent that.

In my experience, that generally means you just need to clean the pocket lint out of the USB port.

Or just that Micro-B was a shit-stain of a connector that depended on the world's tiniest springs exhibiting no wear.

Mini-B was actually pretty solid.

Mini-b would break the port instead of the cable
