except there is no ‘#’ operator in C or C++, so any interesting self-referential pattern breaks down here

# is two layers of ++, so the pattern is there. Whether that was originally intended or coincidence is another matter, but it works well enough that I suspect it was considered when picking names.

I would be reasonably confident in offline games running in 20 years if you bought the cartridges, if you bought the estore versions I would be significantly less confident.

Similarly putting stuff in the upper right is just asshole design for those of us who are left handed, unfortunately that’s relatively common.

OP is either worried about ghosts or the serial killer(s) whom he nicked a few bodies from.

That’s a bit rich coming from the people who call a potato a ground apple.

Yep, though it’s just a picture of the (former) Australian PM giving himself a bit of arc flash

But you can see so much more without that pesky mask…

Just carrying it in my pocket all day, nothing unusual. I might get a bit more lint forming or dust falling into my pocket than some people since I have a fairly active job but that applies to many others too. It’s not just a USB-C thing either as I found micro USB to similarly build up stuff inside the port. Headphone jacks I never had a problem with when I had a phone or mp3 player with one, I guess they’re less prone to this issue.

Edit: Never had issues with lint build up in the old Nokia charger port either, micro USB was the first port I really noticed it happening with.

How the heck are you getting gunk in your USB C ports? 🤨

How are you not getting lint and dust in your USB C ports? Not really a problem with computers due to the cleaner usage environment but I have to clean out the port on my phone every few months or the cable will start losing connection at the slightest bump.

I wouldn’t expect Lightning is immune from this either but it likely is less of an issue there due to having less narrow gaps for lint to get caught in the port.
