   There will come a time when the Raspberry Pi Foundation does not require a super secret mythical combination of USB C power supply and cable that is only dubiously complainant and can only be obtained on the third Thursday of the months with no R in them.

   That time is not now.

     I am once again begging them to stop thinking they know better than the whole world when it comes to USB C power delivery. If Fred in his Wuhan shed can make shit that powers up without you feeling like you’re playing a game of fucking Myst, RPi with their impressive collection of computer science degrees and personal computer heritage should be able to.

     @saramg By people who can’t fucking read the USB spec, repeatedly.

     @goatsarah Given how they were told of by the AUTHOR of the power delivery portion of the spec because of what they did to the 4, you'd think they'd have made *some* effort on the 5.

     But hey, this version has AI in it, so yay?
