Behold my 64GB Sandisk USB Drive I bought 4 years ago!

We have USA and we have USB. Why did we go with USB-C instead of USC?

Macbook Airs are most definitely not reasonably priced. Again, you're paying a premium price ($1000) for ultra-thin and ultra-lightweight, but you're losing ports and you get a small amount of storage. An HP entry level laptop is $500, you get twice as many USB ports (both USB-C and USB Type A) AND you get an HDMI port, AND you get twice the SSD storage. Macbook Air is only reasonably priced if you're already used to Apple's premium pricing. >Until recently, the support for enterprise management, fleet management, provisioning/deprovisioning, updates management and compliance support was non-existent.  This is false. Macs have had enterprise management software for over 20 years. Apple first integrated MDM into the OS in 2010.

We all know the only reason they are up because they beat on their USB drive sales.

PM_ME_UR_NECKBEARD

Serves us right honestly. If we treat our friends like shit and threaten war with them, why should they rely on our financial services? We have no one to blame but ourselves. Hopefully they can make some better alternatives. I love the USB C standard. EU likely will continue to erode our hold on things. Hopefully we can benefit from their willingness (relatively speaking) to stand up to big money interests.

I got one charger I use for my phone, it's USB A to USB C but my only cable for it is damaged after 5 years. You guys know if upgrading to a USB C to USB C charger actually makes a noticeable different in charging speed or is it marketing nonsense. Right I'd say it takes 2 hours for my phone to go from 20% to 100% battery with USB A to USB C. Thinking of just buying another USB A to USB C cable but also contemplating picking up a new C-C charger with cable.

Might as well document this for transparency, for better or worse. These were the **prices for each contract at the time my post was published**. IWM Feb 11 262 Put: $0.18 IWM Feb 13 259 Put: $0.31 IWM Feb 13 256 Put: $0.17 TGT Feb 13 108 Put: $0.25 SBUX Feb 13 94 Put: $0.13 PNC Feb 13 227.5 Put: $0.20 USB Feb 13 57 Put: $0.05 XLI Feb 13 167 Put: $0.11 Look at the expiration dates. From the start, this is a very short-term play.

Why is everything that charges now a fucking USB port instead of a plug for an outlet?

Homeless-Coward-2143

You're too retarded even for USB if you don't know the returns for spy and qqq the last 5-10 years.

lemurtowne

It's their flash NAND that's driving the demand. Not just USB, also SSD and memory for embedded devices.

Full_Muffin7930

I've got a SanDisk USB drive 

TrickyBar9580

Has nothing to do with USB sticks They have high bandwidth flash which is in extreme demand. No one buys Sandisk for the USB drives..

A lot of newer cars don't let you install any music streaming apps worth a shit, but a lot of them include some native flavor of YouTube client built-in. running YT music over wireless CarPlay and/or Android Auto is a janky box-inside-a-box UI flow plus nothing I have test driven actually seems to support Dolby Atmos (or even 5.1) enabled music over CarPlay/AA. it plays, it's maybe aoeta better-ish than faked multichannel stereo but if you compare it with ripped lossless Atmos or BD multichannel audio on a USB drive and play directly from that, it can be a startling improvement over even wired CarPlay. It's sad that so few cars support on board android automotive, with its hundreds of apps including almost all of the premium lossless audio clients (Tidal, Qobuz etc) that run right on the car infotainment system natively.

DrySea8638

Had to stop at Apple lol They didn’t force a product manufacturing change implemented by the EU for USB-C so that’s picking and choosing winners/losers? lol

Why did USB flash drives reach 700 before SPY

_Lucille_

On one hand, walmart has the logistics network to potentially compete with a giant like Amazon, and stuff like Sam's Club seem to be getting more popular. On the other hand, at where I live, Walmart actually sucks: they are not just more expensive than competitors, but also generally have lower quality products (from produce to bakery items to snacks). Take something like USB cables for example: a tech influencer recently launched their own cables, and i see people complaining about the trash the have gotten at walmart and how expensive it is, and in my head I went "why didnt you just go on amazon and buy this well established brand with certified cables at a lower price point?".

SNDK announces AI USB sticks

RedBrowning

Personally I think its unknowledgable investors who think of SanDisk when they think of NAND because SanDisk had such a big brand name for NAND USB sticks and Flash. I don't think folks realize WDC, Segate, and Samsung all target datacenter SSDs more.

barelyreadsenglish

Imagine someone trading 1 USB stick with a bunch of numbers and letters in exchange for a brand new bmw m3 back in Oct when it was 120k. Then while walking home, because now you don't have a car, you trip and fall in a puddle and get the drive wet and lose everything.

When you get fed up with dependency hell, BSD is there for you. It is like a Mac, but less walled garden and a little more power hungry. I had FreeBSD jails in 2004, cute that all these kids got excited about their docker and para-v containers recently. It really feels like people just don't know what computers are for and MS takes a big advantage under the guise of ease of use. And everyone keeps re-inventing the same wheel that's already been turning for years. Now they are in my cables with their stupid ARM processors everywhere figuring out how thick the wires on the USB-C cable are and if the source and sink are allowed to talk to each other. I am getting too old for this shit and I am a millenial ffs.

MiserySound

Also tapping into business. I used to work at a liquot store and we had these custom iPad models with USB-C years before they were forced to change the consumer versions to usb-c too

A fucking USB stick manufacturer can go up 1500% in 4 months. That's like 30 years of SPY returns

kelsier_rabbit

My current pc is inherited pc and uses a 3rd Gen Intel processor that struggles with bare minimums and it far removed from what would be considered acceptable for any workspace. It caps out at 25mbps but like goes up to 25 spike stops then back up spikes stops when using my USB drive.

USB sales will double this year

ComeAtMeBro9

US banks JPM 14.2% BAC 14% USB 20% PNC 15% Truist 11.2% Goldman 47% Meanwhile in the UK: Barclays 61% Lloyds 94% HSBC 74% Nowhere did I say there was correlation. I simply said many British stocks did better than the S&P. In fact, I’d argue the opposite, which is the point. Astrazeneca 39%,Shell, Rio Tinto, tobacco companies, it wasn’t only bank stocks that had a good showing in the FTSE 100, smh.

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a small group of beta testers for a compact pass-through mouse jiggler I’ve been developing over the past several months. It’s a low-profile USB device that works alongside your existing mouse or receiver. You continue using your real mouse normally. The device runs fully offline, requires no drivers, and doesn’t install any software. I’m looking for people who spend long hours at a computer (developers, engineers, power users, etc.) and are comfortable giving honest feedback during early testing. Windows, macOS, and Linux users are all welcome. Preference is for Southern California (LA / OC / SD) for easier coordination, but I can ship nationwide if you’re a good fit. We’re an LLC registered in Huntington Beach, California. For transparency, we also provide an open-source HID monitoring tool (with full source code) so testers can see exactly how the device behaves. This is an early beta, not a finished consumer product, so I’m prioritizing thoughtful feedback over volume. If interested, please DM me with: 1. Your location 2. OS you use 3. How you’d describe your computer usage (work, dev, gaming, etc.) Thanks!

SpicyElixer

Y’all are crazy. This girl has the best education money can buy. An extremely successful MIT educated family, and lots of personal connections. Plus USB drives worth 100x the biggest gains seen in this sub. She’ll be fine. She’ll make bank doing some shady shit and the government won’t care. She’s 10x better off than Martin Shkreli, and he’s doing fine.

The USB chargers are down!

jonnohb

Or you could just bring a USB stick with Bitcoin on it and boom done deal

GammaReaper_

If you have a definable mathematical edge - like for many event driven earnings options trades - it is more than possible to generate high Sharpe Ratio returns. The key is to be selective in the positions you initiate (vol skew, vol crush, high liquidity, etc.) I had a IC on $USB over the weekend that worked like a champ (+50% return) despite the big sell-off in the overall market I'm also always long wing gamma to protect/hedge against black swan events. Both trades made money today. That's not always the case of course but making money while being delta neutral is always a good thing.

SpakysAlt

Sounds too much like a company that makes USB drives, for that reason I’m out.

I am just saying they are counted differently, but I defer the axiom of choice of counting system to you since the "public" will always count your money differently. The value choice function of a money unit is arbitrary, but the one has productive value to you because you need/use it... it can be carrots for all I care (and I am definitely not a crypto bro shilling SHA hashes as any better... it is just "different", and I still don't have any because I can make up anything I want in a digital world, but Jesús likes the green pieces of paper in exchange for mowing my lawn.... not USB sticks full of bits and bytes.

Humans are wired for connection. Mens pp is like USB and we store data in our balls. Women and men have multiple ports we can stick our USB stick in and upload data

I have a Sandisk USB drive from 2002…not sure if it still works

Responsible-Meringue

Thats real funny. 3b+ will be my dick around device.    Unfortunately on the Pi, I/O is a big bottleneck on the shared USB 2.0 bus for a NAS. Which is what plex will pull from. I want to consolidate everything onto one fanless hardware stack to sit in a corner of my basement. I have a big plywood panel that I have bolted all the house's IT infrastructure to.  N100 is looking most likely (really want to hear the competition's arguments). I'd love to try a NoMachine-like setup too.  In a perfect world, it's all containerized in docker to ease admin. I don't do IT professionally so it takes me longer to remember how to do the simple stuff.

But you can put it on a USB stick and try get the next sucker to buy it off you for even more money....

Your hand warmers come with a split USB-C cord so you can charge both at the same time. Neat right? Also we’re going to bomb Nigeria.

What if there is a fantastical, behind the scenes battle between bulls and bears occurring in the shadows? They have assassins and sometimes gather in dark, high tech night clubs and have dance fights and capers and break into each other's high rise buildings to steal USB sticks filled with important data. That's a lot more comforting than a bunch of feet-sniffing bulls and very smart bears arguing while them move .03% of the market move while boomer 401ks, algorithms, and tweets by deranged old men move the rest of the market.

bslaven3

Micron (MU) ended 2025 with a 47% year over year revenue increase. They also crushed their Q4 earnings. Stock target price was raised to \~$300 by USB and Citi Group and to $330 by HSBC and Morgan Stanley.

pacmandaddy

AI is incredible and has already achieved some amazing things. The stuff that Google Deepmind has achieved with Alphafold? Incredible stuff. I wouldn't be surprised if AI solves cancer eventually. It's funny that you mention the USB-C example, because I do have an opinion on that. I am 100% against EU bureaucrats who know little about tech, intruding and meddling in other people's affairs and dictating to foreign tech companies how to design their products. It is absurd , laughable and also offensive.

TheGreatBenjie

You do seem like the person that would like a dystopia. The fact you're pro-ai is pretty telling as well. How about the fact that USB type C is the standard for virtually all devices now? We can thank the EU for that. I can't even tell if you like or dislike the cookie consent which is absolutely a good thing as well. Like, we get it, you go hard on the corpo-koolaid. Doesn't mean it's actually a good thing for humanity for tech companies to run the world.

Wonko-D-Sane

digital dead-drop, for script-kiddies that can't figure out how to carry their own SMTP server and an DNS server in a VM on a USB stick whenever they need a rando e-mail address for those pesky 2FAs. The amount of money those scammers actually manage to get is only less ridiculous that it is a Voodoo cult that uses human sacrifice to improve their scamming... "Black Axe" you can't make this shit up, it is most of Nigeria's GDP

Blubasur

The EU fining and telling Elon to stfu is pretty much the exact reason people like the EU. In fact, the EU has probably done the most in tech regulation that spread world wide (iPhone lightning vs USB C, privacy, fining most of big tech at this point, browser and search engine choice)

Whenever you remember this, remember there was a guy who sold Bitcoin to buy pizza and another who is still looking for his USB with millions worth in it.

So, one of them gets a gold bullion stick and the other one gets an USB stick and then they're put into the ring to see which asset class works in a fight?

PerfunctoryComments

Meta has *never* used Google's TPUs before, nor has Google ever sold their TPUs to be used elsewhere aside from their garbage "Coral" USB device for aficionados. Anthropic recently moved their models to a million Google v7 Ironwood TPUs, and it's a big reason Anthropic got rid of the Opus-specific caps and dropped their pricing to 1/3rd. There is nothing business as usual about this, and it absolutely is paradigm shifting. Google is serving up meaningless nonsense to assure nvidia-users that they can still lever that on GCE, but anyone thinking this is just as it was does not know what is happening. The #1 and #2 current models across almost all realms both run on TPUs now. Quite extraordinary.

Given that it could be copied infinitely, a line of code on a USB stick would certainly be worthless. Luckily there's no market cap for that.

barelyreadsenglish

At least with gold or other commodities there has been a precedent based on hundred of years of trade on what a fair value for it is. For a line of code on a USB how can anyone place value on it? Yes you can anonymously buy illegal shit but is that worth a market cap of 1.7 trillion?

Don’t forget that you can’t even download windows 11 onto a USB drive on your old windows 10 computer to fire up your new ready for windows 11 computer because they …broke the installer and it only works on windows 11.

If you do two laptops you can have one hand typing on each laptop at the same time for increased productivity. If you really wanted to go laptop+monitor, you can plug a USB keyboard in at the same time so you can still type twice as fast, it's just not as elegant.

You can store any data that's important to you in perpetuity - that's the utility it offers. No other storage option on the planet exists with the same guarantee. USB drives? No Laptop? No Cloud? No Etc., etc. That's why it's the perfect platform to hosting a  ledger for global settlement of trade.

brucekeller

I was Android for a while and switched to Apple, but I am considering switching back to Android just to make the audio I pirate a bit easier to manage. Having to upload shit to the icloud and then download it on the phone and uploading shit to my google drive etc., is pretty annoying compared to simply using a USB cable. Also, AirPods... meh. I think a good fit in the ear is better for overall sound quality and bass reproduction than most of the technology as long as you aren't buying the shittiest earbuds out there. I did have AirPods, but when I lost them, that was the end of that. I'd rather just have a few pairs of $40 ones that I can take skiing or whatnot and not feel bad if I lose them.

ShadowLiberal

Quantum computers are incapable of doing ANYTHING useful right now, and are almost certainly going to remain that way for well over a decade plus. Worse yet, even if Quantum computers could do something useful, they'd be horrendously limited by the tiny amounts of memory quantum computers have. It's so little it would make a 64 MB USB look freaking hug. But there's some serious problems with the laws of physics to adding more memory to quantum computers. It's a bit complicated to explain, but basically the quantum memory needs to be shielded properly to block interference. If even one bit of memory isn't shielded properly then the entire result is worthless due to outside interference. And the more memory you have the harder it is to shield it all properly, and the greater the chance that it all becomes useless due to the lack of shielding.

**The early start of earnings season in October for the 3rd quarter of 2025, the reporting companies are beating revenues and earnings causing the stock market to rise in these sectors.** Example, Pepsi, Coke, Delta Arilines, Wells Fargo, JPM, Goldman Sachs, Blackock, Citibank, Bank of America, Morgan Stanley, Taiwan Semiconductor, Charles Schwab, USB, American Express all beat erevenue and earnings estimates for 3rd quarter and gave good outlooks for 2026. US Companies have revenue and profit growth. US GDP at 3.8% no recession, unemployment still low at 4.2%, inflation under control at 3.0%. Large capital growth for Ai and data centers. The ecomony is not great for the lower half of the demographics, poor working class. But the ecomony is good for high tech, finance and the upper middle class & rich people >$250,000 earnings per year. **These people buy most of the stocks and are driving the ecomony forward.** It's a split economy between demographic groups.

> NextNRG Inc. engages in mobile fueling operations in the United States. The company offers on-demand and subscription-based fuel delivery services to individual consumers, fleets, marine, and other specialty markets. It is also involved in developing and deploying wireless electric vehicle charging technology with battery storage and solar energy solutions. In addition, the company offers smart grid products. NextNRG Inc. was incorporated in 2016 and is headquartered in Miami, Florida. Sounds to me like a fuel-trucking company that put "microgrid" in their description cuz it's a buzzword today. Makes me wonder if their idea of "microgrid" is a portable solar panel with a USB outlet to charge a phone... And I think it's weird they essentially ripped off the NEXT computer logo. Hmmm.

There is some chatter that subprime mortgages are bundled up at USB Bank and they want to transfer to the US for participation in the anticipated “bailout”. So essentially that will never get off the books and we will continue to pay for it forever in this current system. We’ve already billed out the subprime market as once.
