@noiob I used to use that all the time when my main laptop was the fucking lenovo yoga book which only has 1 (one) upside down micro usb port

@masklayer I mean it looks handy, considering looking for a USB-C version

@noiob @masklayer White background. In the middle, there's a USB Type A to USB Type C adapter that's just a Type C plug and a Type A "port chip" (again, dunno the actual name). Below, there's text in black saying "Type C to USB 2.0".

You're welcome.

You're welcome (also, please reply with the right name of the last one).

@octonine it doesn't have an actual name, it's a crime against the USB spec
