I love how everyone is trying make up some ‘logical system’ or magical thinking about the completely arbitrary and random nature of the problem.
It’s not like there’s a big hairy USB god in the clouds who is going listen to all your jibber-jabber or that there’s some hidden alchemical formula that will turn the wrongly oriented USB connection into the golden correct orientation everytime.
It’s all bullshit. I don’t care if you are offended. It’s not the Bronze Age anymore. Just grow up and look at your damn USB connector, and then the socket.
