@GottaLaff Yes. Yes they are.

Oh my God this is hilarious.

@slashdot OK I giggled.

@JamminJerry @summersun704 @sweetstephanie Because it lowers the volume of audio from what the standard gives us.

@JamminJerry @summersun704 @sweetstephanie Yeah it's the same thing, just with USBC instead of lightning. Have I mentioned how much I hate lightning?

@JamminJerry @sweetstephanie @TRodick93 Here you go: https://www.amazon.com/Female-Adapter-Headphone-Compatible-Samsung/dp/B08Y7YXHSB/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?crid=2100VMTNU4FHJ&keywords=USB-C%2Bto%2B3.5%2BMM%2Badapter&qid=1706575845&sprefix=usb-c%2Bto%2B3.5%2Bmm%2Badapter%2Caps%2C124&sr=8-2-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&th=1

@JamminJerry @sweetstephanie @TRodick93 Don't need to. If you're plugging headphones into it you need female. Hang on link incoming.

@JamminJerry @sweetstephanie Looks like there is, at least for apple stuff. Which type of connecter do you need, male or female?

@JamminJerry @sweetstephanie I'm not sure.

@summersun704 @sweetstephanie There's a reason when I worked in a data center we kept it below 60 in there.

@summersun704 @sweetstephanie It sounds like it may need to be redone.

@JamminJerry @sweetstephanie Which just made things really awkward because then we had to explain to management what happened.

@summersun704 @sweetstephanie It would have just slowly overheated. There's a reason there was that verse in that ACBRadio song about how your computers were always past 100 degrees inside. Way past.

@summersun704 @sweetstephanie Yeah that too.

@JamminJerry @sweetstephanie It's interesting. You start with a PC that is not properly venting heat. See, this was a custom built PC of Jerry's, and I don't think things like case ventilation and heat displacement from the processor via something like Quicksilver were things he thought through at the time.

You have to listen, if for no other reason than it's a train wreck you can't look away from and you won't get that impression without listening. But yeah this is the worst timeline.

@JamminJerry @sweetstephanie @TRodick93 I'm going to contradict him and say instead that if you have the opportinity you should walk away, and even better, have someone else handle what they can handle with regard to your tech. Not everybody's a techie and that's fine.

@summersun704 @sweetstephanie Oh yes I remember that very well.

I think I remember that bug.
