Sure. But only one of these groups is responsible for supplying actual-fucking-hardware to the group that simply uses it. And sometimes, that group consists of errant fucking nimrods.

The spec is good. Spec-compliant devices tolerate idiot users extremely well. The implementers of the spec are sometimes errant nimrods, though. Errant nimrods can bring a bad time to any party they decide to be involved in. This can be

If the devices at each end of the cable are built to spec, and the cable itself is also built to spec, and nothing is damaged, then: USB-C is always ambidextrous. The spec works fine. It really does. It is complete and functional in its

I think RNDIS started as a built-in with XP, and there's MSFT-supplied drivers (now hosted at archive.org) that cover the win9x era. Someone wrote about that here: https://thp.io/2023/rpizero-usb-win98.html . A

That's a problem for the bridge device to sort out, not the hardwired ethernet gear that it connects. Pre-made wireless bridges generally have web interfaces (and/or dreadful phone apps) to get them set up and chatting the right w

It was, quite simply, a very different time. This stuff was designed in the nineteen eighties. Old 10base-T ethernet used one pair of wires for transmit, and another pair of wires for receive (and the other 2 pairs? they did nothing at al

USB ethernet and tethering on Android is certainly one way. Keeping the phone powered can present interesting opportunities, but it works well. There's also other ways. Like USB tethering. Plug the computer into the Android phone wit

I don't see why the operating systems have to be different. One should be able to run a GUI on a "server," if they choose to do so. It's not arduous; here in 2026, servers are allowed to have GPUs. It's really OK.

I think that you're just asking for printers that are strictly offline -- and by "offline," I mean: They don't connect to any mothership, ever, nor do they have any facility by which to do so. There's a ton of prin
