     @kaia Test all 20 until you find the magic one?
     Only has a time complexity of O(n). :gnulightened:

     @kaia@brotka.st i think for video they need extra data cables, so it might be thicker and sturdier? :nkowoozy:

     @kaia According to Murphy it‘s probably the last cable you are going to check. Question is how to identify that last cable :ablobcat_cordkamikami:

     @kaia@brotka.st @d3routr@corteximplant.com also, on some usb-c cables it actually matters which way round they’re plugged in
