This is my ~8 month old work laptop.
Is a Dell.
2 usb c not pictured.
You have options.
Look at all those ports I'll never need
We should have had USBC 20 years ago.
It's still cool to have options
That's what prisoners say. You are so conditioned to it that you prefer it.
You should probably look in a mirror, Mr. Prisoner.
You're the one asking to be constrained.
Your other comments are less nonsensical, so I'll only focus on this one.
My point was that defending the pissing contest over standards that gave us consumers six ports instead of one to do all the same tasks really misses the mark, imo.
Not really, i don't use usb-c for everything cause for me it gives no advantage. Like my LAN cable still works, my aux port is up-to my satisfaction, my DP port is straightforward.
Why should i go to USB-C if everything works? I'm not Anti Type-c but I'm also not Pro type-c, if that makes sense. I'll use it if I'm missing on some new tech.
