To be clear - they also work with data transfer (well, except the power bank and neck cooler).

I copy ebooks to my reader over USB, transfer photos off my camera, and print photos - all via USB-C.

Yup! That's my official photo from the ceremony - I had to swap back to the stock headstrap so it would fit under the cap.

"Kill It With Fire" which is a great look at dealing with legacy computer systems.

"Lessons In Chemistry" which is a delightfully draft novel about fifties feminism.

Why do communities exist for - to pick an example - atheists? In lots of parts of the world, there is huge social pressure to conform to a specific religion. If you decide not to, or leave the religion, or have questions, it can be a terrifying and lonely experience.

It's the same here. Lots of us feel huge pressure from family, friends, co-workers, and society to do something that we don't want to do. So it is nice to have a community where we can discuss that and reassure each other. Because it is difficult to do what is right when everyone is telling you you're wrong.

A recall petition is only available under very limited circumstances.

https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/sn05089/

Nadine has neither been suspended nor convicted of a crime. So there's no petition.

Even if there were, the threshold for the petition succeeding is only 10% of registered voters. And you can bet that opposition parties would easily he able to drum up that level of support.

Yes, there are magnetic USB cables which do data. Here's my review of one https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2021/10/gadget-review-subbytech-magnetic-charge-sync-cables/

Discord is where information goes to die.

Please just stick things on a website. I'm happy to help you set one up.

Yup - I quite agree. I have a portable powerbank which will also charge gadgets using USB-PD. I fill it up from solar and use it when I'm out and about.

Even my eReader has USB-C. Makes going on holiday much more convenient.

There are some excellent blogs covering local news in London. I can recommend https://853.london/

New client day! So I'm off to their office to pick up a laptop, password, ID, time sheets, etc.

Commuting is, thankfully, a one-time thing.

I also use Simple SMS. Works fine for text messaging - but I use Signal, Telegram, and WhatsApp for everything else.

It is excellent at extracting OTP codes for easy copying and pasting.
