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.

Moral of the story: get a USB adapter

[–] napkin2020@sh.itjust.works -3 points 3 hours ago

Huawei isn't really competitive with their laptops though. To be fair, it's pretty much impossible to win Apple with laptop.

This is why you get a adapter stick that has C to micro, C to A, C to Thunder, and a card reader.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 9 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

I do have a 2-ended USB drive with A and C and it's glorious.

[–] javiwhite@feddit.uk 1 points 2 hours ago

A double ended dongle, you could say?

[–] hirihit640@sh.itjust.works 3 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

C to Thunder? aren't they the same connector? unless you're talking about lightning

Macs are actually pretty secure. Especially with their TPM stuff. It's the everything else that sucks about them

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

If somebody requests that I drop air, I will push a fart. Hope your bougie toy can read that.

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 9 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I have an email account for this kind of problems

This is how an entire generation escaped having to carry floppy disks to school

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours 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 3 points 13 hours ago

Look at Mr. Two Dongles over here.

lol what happened to emailing the presentation or sharing it on a cloud drive like Google

[–] Aeri@lemmy.world 15 points 18 hours ago (3 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.

Americucks and their Apple.

[–] Starduster75@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago

Tell me about it, I worked there once. What a cult! They are essentially the Nike of computers.

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours 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.

[–] Ostrichgrif@lemmy.world 20 points 18 hours ago

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

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

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 7 points 17 hours ago (5 children)

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

I'm proud to be incompatible with Apple

[–] placebo@lemmy.zip 6 points 14 hours ago

It's rather Apple who is incompatible with the rest of the world. Any other bluetooth device can transfer files with other bluetooth devices.
