It's a simple adapter USB-C male to female, in an angle, making the cable go behind the Deck, so it doesn't wiggle on top.

I bought a 90° USB-C cable.

And I LOVE that USB-C is uni-directional.

I tend to buy 90° connectors for all the things and it's such a treat that USB-C is well designed.

It's clearly bi-directional.

Bi-directional?

There’s also a massive scandal with USB c now that more devices and phones are using higher wattages and the vast majority of cables on the market are e-waste that doesn’t meet the actual USB-C specification.

While that’s not the fault of the spec designers, one could argue that the massive failure to regulate has resulted in fire risks in every home.

Bro is misinformed on basic reality 😭

That's great too! I just had too many cables already
