This is a debate, not an argument, let's be adults about this. [Insert political joke]

Yeah but like, USB-C can't power a washing machine

[โ€“] Catsrules@lemmy.ml 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

True but how often are you unplugging and plugging in a washing machine?

Generally speaking higher powered devices have a higher chance you leave them plugged in.

Hmm. What about a vacuum cleaner? It can't be powered by USB-C.

[โ€“] nieminen@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I mean, that's only true if your vacuum sucks. If it doesn't suck, then USBC shouldn't make a difference.

Ironically, you'll find that all vacuums suck :)

[โ€“] nieminen@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Heh, I guess the sarcasm was lost. I know all vacuums SHOULD suck, but if it doesn't, then USBC wouldn't hurt, because it can't suck less.

Hahah I'm so stupid, I didn't get the joke myself and I tried to make the same joke

[โ€“] Catsrules@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago

Sure your standard corded vacuums probably needs more power then what USB-C can provide. But alot of people are liking those cordless vacuums and I would bet money those could be charged off USB-C same with robotic vacuums.
