Pretty sure that's a 15" Pro not an Air, that comes with twice as many ports standard. Of course they were all Thunderbolt 3 lol.

But these are out of production anyway. Newer ones have more port choice again. Airs still only get thunderbolt 4.

[–] remon@ani.social 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Newer ones have more port choice again.

There is no choice though, you can't keep it TB4 only like the older models or the air, you're forced to have a bunch of legacy ports.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 6 points 2 days ago

I clearly meant there's just more ports. Framework aside, you've never really been able to choose your own ports.

The Pro still has TB4 too, in addition to the legacy ports.

Why cables when wireless protocols do trick?

[–] Beacon@fedia.io 19 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Let's not rehash that argument. Use what works for you and let other people use what works for them. There is no right and wrong way that works for everyone

[–] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Agreed, just trying to post in the shitposting spirit 🤣

I have a MacBook Pro and use a CalDigit TS4 hub because I need more ports.

[–] Beacon@fedia.io 3 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Woah that's an expensive dock! What do you need it for?

[–] KoalaUnknown@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Macbooks refuse to connect to more than one display over a USB-C dock, meaning you have to purchase a thunderbolt dock.

[–] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 days ago

Or ditch the Macbook and get a proper computer without artificial restrictions.

[–] faltryka@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Mine does two displays every day at work using usb-c dock…

[–] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Two 4K monitors, a mic, a camera*, a personal yubikey, a work yubikey, an iPhone charging puck, and a spare port to occasionally charge the keyboard or trackpad.

*despite being TB4, the dock’s bandwidth is insufficient for a 4k camera stream running through an Elgato Camlink, so my dock (ascrono vertical docking station) has one of its ports going to the cam and the other to the hub. I’m convinced there isn’t a hub on the market that supports my requirements.

Because I rather not have environmental damaging batteries in every device I use when my laptop has a big enough one to power them all and is close by at all times anyway.

Seriously, wireless protocols over a distance of <1 meter are worthless and unnecessary.

[–] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I never said anything about battery operated devices. I was thinking things like printers and external storage.

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 days ago

There are plenty of times when wireless solutions does not in fact "do trick".

We only have a limited available radio frequency spectrums we can use.

And trust me, if you have a wireless AV transmitter to the projector in a meeting room it may work fine with five people in the romm, but it will fall on it's arse when there are 50 people in the same room.
