Everyday with mouse and keyboard.

1 minute ago I transferred a file on usb, and my mouse and keyboard is usb too.

I got some USBa to USBc tiny adaptors and attached them to my mouse and keyboard with a special tape. I only use my USBc laptop now so I don't use normal USB.

right now

is this apple shill?

umm mouse and keyboard? usb headset, charging my smartphone everyday.

you could just use a usb c mouse. it would probably be cheaper to buy a usb c mouse than the adapters costed.

Adaptor is like 1 pound.

Every single day.

Mouse
Keyboard
Debuggers
RS232/485 adapters
General charging port for low power devices
Flash drives/external HDDs

Getting rid of USB would means buying a USB hub and back to square one.

But add USB 3.0 port is like 25c.

Maybe an hour ago to transfer files and use a keyboard

this, and also with usb flash drive like a few hours ago

What? I'd rather keep using my expensive mouse over some cheap chink shit.

Why aren't you using ps/2?

Right now

because its not 1965

Every motherboard worth owning today has keyboard and mouse ps/2 ports.

I'm assuming you mean for a flash drive...
About 3 times a week. I'm a college student.
You ask the question as if flash drives are obsolete like disc drives. Fuck off.

I'm using 3 of them right now.

I use all besides one of the front ports every day, and when I need an usb drive, I use the last port for it.

Supply and demand. Retards demand stupidity, the market will supply. Unless youre in IT and physically working on servers, fuck off with ps/2 ports. USB is better.

said you?

>USB is better.
Why?

The only ones that don't have them are garbage ''gamer'' motherboards. Those aren't worth owning.

Ports are outdated technology that nobody needs. Use wireless instead.

why?

No true scotsman

You know the advantages. Why don't you instead explain why you want PS/2. Muh chad interrupts?

Daily.

HDD external chasis
USB 4-port hub
USB mouse
USB keyboard
USB UPS
USB controller
USB phone charger
USB tablet
USB thumbdrive
USB speakers

If you aren't using atleast 2 usb ports daily you're either a mobile phone shit user or some little retard that barely uses their computer.

Yesterday, to scan some documents.

Because I have no idea how to scan documents over Ethernet using Arch Linux.
Was hard enough getting printing to work with CUPS.

not counting shit that is plugged in 24/7 like mouse and keyboard:
just yesterday i plugged by kindle into the computer to transfer some pornographic short stories about mind control onto it

Every day? Mouse, keyboard, mic, other keyboard, ds4 controller, phone charger, usb stick

2 minutes ago

but ps/2 is literally a gaming meme

All day everyday. Stop trying to find excuses to remove more ports you undercover apple researcher.

Right now, charging my phone

Also stop posting this thread

Bullshit.

ps/2 still comes standard.
It's probably in case none of the USB controllers work, so you can still access UEFI and fix them.

> last time used USB
everyone:
> all the damn time

/thread

>No one needs USB anyways. Says Apple
Maybe their innovation team are testing new waters

mouse, keyboard, zip disquette.

Right now, you stupid Applel shill.

this honestly

Last night. Shit thread by the way, OP.

but apple uses USB, why'd you even bring apple into this

What's a computer?

Because of muh precious Model M

PS/2 is only better for keyboard

30 seconds ago

Right now.

Like 30 minutes ago.

Every USB port on my desktop is occupied

>tfw nowadays most laptop charges through USB C now (with the rest being proprietary junk for the sake of proprietary junk)
USB is literally the future, i dont understand this thread.

>muh one port wonder

Is this apple trying to see if they could get away with removing USB from the next MacBook.

>remove usb from macbook to make it even more light and thin, or maybe waterproof
>no ports to charge it
>macfags buy a new macbook every few days
FUCKING BRILLINAT

Right now.

around five minutes ago, USB stick. There's no more flexible and easy file transfer protocol than a physical medium connected through the ease of Universial Serial Bus.

>usb audio
>usb keyboard
>usb mouse
>usb external storage for backups
>usb programming for quads
literally right now

That picture is so true.

now

This would easily be solved by just making a torrent

24/7 it still and will for decades to come be a industry wide port. USBC is going to take some time to catch on with the business world.

No, because my brother does not do torrenting. So we would need to install a client, and create a magnet for the file, which would be sent across some messeging app or email, which in itself is pretty complex. And the local discovery doesn't always work, i works often, but not always, so in doing that i would look forward to discovering is IP, as we don't do static local IPs anymore (steam does all the game linking, so what ever)

All that setup wouldn't have been completed before the mod-file was transferred to a USB stick, and flung through the living room. And no, downloading the mod again is still not as fast. You would have to find the page in firefox, even if it is open, verify that i was the right one, copy the link, certainly only of the page (as direct link of the file does not always work, maybe some per-deteriation of hosting server is done on some sites, i don't know) and then again decide and communicate your intended medium of transferring the link, so he could watch it, and then start the transfer, which is almost guaranteed to be slower than the speed of my decent USB stick.

I have in fact a permanent mounted USB stick on our router, with all PCs linked to it, which is often how we do it. However it was currently full, and instead of going through the effort of judging the importance of said files belonging to other members of the household, i just grabbed a nearby USB stick.


TL;DR: No, it's not faster. For a single transfer, between two random(!) people, USB stick is always faster.

Wetransfer, although there's probably something dodgy with the monetisation model, on the face of it it gets the job done in seconds with no worries that it won't work. The fact it'll go up to 2gb is great for 95% of scenarios, in the past i've used it to send minimally compressed video, .dlls needed by a friend, collections of raw photos and patches for software and games. You even get a conformation email when the guy downloads so you can be sure that everything worked out.

Just now to transfer files.
Wanted to do it via ssh, but I fucking forgot to enable it on my server (lazily just started it once for setups stuff) and now I can't be asked to connect a keyboard (mount-script that automatically moves new media). I am a real, yet failed human bean.

right now with my mouse. keyboard is PS/2 though

Is this a bait thread?

>probably something dodgy with the monetisation model
The only thing dodgy about that is that it only goes up to 20GB with 100GB available at once and that my company uses it for deliverables. I asked them about this and there's no plans for them to make it a larger system. Conversely something like media exchange want tens of thousands of pounds per year for their systems.

A couple seconds ago

the last time i typed or moved my mouse they arr still required shut up with you otherwise implications you braying jackass

Haha most people have a PS4 these days, gramps.

funny, mine just werks

you realize cups is how big offices print right?

PS/2 has better latency. If you like gaymen you should use PS/2 for your mouse at the very least.

find me a decent mouse that is PS2

everyday

I'm actually thinking of getting one, I'm disappointed with the mice I have

Torrenting as a mean of a singular person-to-person file transfer is a "remove the glands through the asshole" tier autism.

using one right now

I use torrents to move data around my own network. Come at me bro.

Literally everyday for mouse, keyboard, external hdd, usb soundcard

all day err day

desktop master race

there is 1 port that can be split, but they never include splitters even on higher end motherboards.

for the keyboard, because its there and I prefer it, I don't need gamer leds and other bullshit, I just want the keyboard to work and ps/2 offers up the best compatibility, had quite a few motherboards where usb was hit or miss if it would work with the bios, but ps/2 never failed me.

for mice, I don't thing I ever used a ps/2 mouse after ball mice, I have an old trackball I need to get a ps/2 to usb adaptor for to play around with, but beyond that, I can't think of a good reason for ps/2 mice.

>You know the advantages. Why don't you instead explain why you want PS/2. Muh chad interrupts

You do know that because USB is poll-driven, you can actually lose keystrokes if you type fast.

Damn, that's a pretty heavy adaptor.

What is the poll rate? 10hz? 100hz? No one is typing fast enough to lose keystrokes from polling.

Is it even possible to NOT use USB? You'd have to use solely a laptop with a standard AC adapter charger as your main rig, and all data transfer would be cloud services-only, and your phone would need to use a proprietary charger. Even wireless chargers use a USB interface.

P2P file sharing has dedicated software - not fucking torrents. Why the fuck are you so retarded?

>tfw you have a PS/2 keyboard but have to use a PS/2 to USB adapter because your motherboard is acting up when you boot with keyboard in the PS/2 port

Two hours ago.

Yes, we get it op. You're a Mac fag and have a touch bar and all Bluetooth peripherals. Good for you.

Now kindly stop taking about it. Your choice of masturbratory fetish isn't ours.

The torrent client is already on all my machines, I don't have to install or configure anything else. Besides, try moving a music collection with tens of thousands of files over other protocols, shit takes forever.

No, it doesn't. I've been actively using LAN for at least a decade.
Regular LAN file transfer is enough for you.
P2P will do exactly the same thing your torrents do, but better.

I use them constantly... several ports and several times a day.

everyday for backups

>UniverisalSB
You can use it for other things and it's hot swappable by default.

You wouldn't notice the latency. Youre a human being, not a machine.

>PS/2 mouse + keyboard
>3.5mm audio jack
>"external" hdd connected with sata power and data hanging out through my 5.25" bays
what kind of faggot uses usb?
