“Propagated by wire” companies.
Heh
Janky solutions have been around forever.
Ah right, i had this oversized computer case with a built-in USB-hub. Accidentally touching the metal frame of the plug with a cable or stick before contact, caused the display to go black until restart. I suspect some grounding+esd issues.
More magic
When I was young, my Atari ST’s video out was a DIN-13 connector. They were as rare as hens’ teeth, and my monitor was an analog RGB Magnavox 8CM515 with something else, so this sort of setup was literally what I had for about 4 years. Worked great, with the extra ‘feature’ that the whole display would twitch slightly to the side every time the floppy drive’s track stepper motor would move on disc seeks :-)
I mean for such an archaic connector signal integrity is just propaganda.
The signals on those wires are so slow, they are practically DC…
Bro you need to get a Monster Cable
At least get oxygen free paper clips ffs
Not in high-frequency, no.
Cable companies. Wires carry current, cables carry data.
Believe it or not, data is carried by current
Current is not necessarily data. Are you really being this thick?
Data is encoded physically by the modulation of electrical characteristics (voltage, frequency, current, phase), which is effected by the motion of electrical charge, which is what we call…current.
Also electrical cable
Right, all data is current. Not all current is data. You really are this thick. Yikes.
Not all cables carry data.
Sure, but if it’s data and not just current being carried, it’s a cable not a wire.
I think you are using the terms in a colloquial sense whereas i am using a technical sense.
In my view the distinction between a cable and a wire is one of construction, not what it’s carrying.
Wire = a continuous length of conductor electrically connecting one thing to another
Cable = one or more wires, with electrical insulation between them, generally enclosed in an outer jacket suitable for end user handling. It could be transmitting usb data or 32kW at 800V and still be a cable.
If data was always current, how do you explain past data?
lmao got’em
False. Wires are used for many purposes, among others carrying mechanical loads or electric current. Cables, on the other hand, are bundles of wires carrying electric current for any purpose whatsoever, including supplying power to equipment and carrying data.
I think it was a deliberate choice so the first thing that comes to mind isn’t cable tv companies. Also, data does move via current.
“Cable” means a bundle of wires with insulation and whatever other accessories they need to function.
