  • In my experience, in IT, cables are usually the way to go over adapters. Adapters tend to break more often than cables.

    Someone else may offer a more thorough differing opinion… like perhaps a very high quality HDMI cable with a high quality adapter may be better than a mediocre off-brand standalone cable, but if the prices/brand are the same… I’d stick with the single cable.

    Before USB-C became standard, we stuck with HDMI cables and then had different adapters on hand just for convenience, but if we knew a cable is going to be used in the same equipment for a long time, we’ll try for the single cable.





  • And crypto is more stable than some governments’ real currency. It’s been a life saver for some people.

    It’s also a lot faster for transactions than normal banking when sending money to people in other countries.

    It’s still in the early days… like email in the late 80s / early 90s. It should get better, but there’s so much crap and scams out there right now. It’s still very much the wild west. It’s like Wall Street on acid.

    EDIT: people downvote but don’t say what was wrong. Awesome.
