Cameras? Maybe it’s a UK thing, but the only ones I can ever find on eBay are yellowed G3s for silly money.

Are these genuinely being hand rolled in an enterprise environment? Unless it’s completely impossible to automate then I can’t be sympathetic to companies that are just doing it wrong.

Thanks for the correction. I was definitely out of date, what I said was only true during the USB 3 era.

So this is an optional part of the USB 4 spec, but from what I can tell this is required for PCs shipping with Windows 11 and USB 4 ports. Yes, this seems like more manufactured confusion courtesy of USB IF.

Exactly this. When you procure custom hardware, you’re paying (a lot) for the vendor to ensure that each unit meets the specifications you provide. If you validate off the shelf hardware like this, there is no guarantee that another batch of the same sku will also meet your requirements. Imagine training on these controllers then a certain batch of them has wildly different sensitivity.

My AirPod Pros have also worked perfectly on my Linux PCs - just as solid as connecting to an Apple device.

Interesting point about the KVM. To make it transparent the KVM would need to report the model of a real monitor in the display EDID data. Also if you’re monitoring the device, which is almost certainly a laptop, it would be suspicious if it was plugged in to a monitor 100% of the time.

Who is buying SSL certs for $300? Is this an enterprise thing? I’m using free certs on AWS. LetsEncrypt is also fine for self-hosting.
