I didn’t reply to this, but part of the reason why people type Reddit after a search is because more often than not it will yield the most useful results. This comes from the age and userbase size of Reddit. If you tried to do this with Lemmy odds are a good amount of the time you’ll end up without results or with less relevant results than from Reddit.

Got it. I mean one thing about Reddit isn’t necessarily that it shows up in search results, but that people will go out of their way to append it to a search in order to get better results.

Elaborate?

Weren’t they pretty straight up saying it was a microcode issue with a patch coming out? Affecting 65 watt+ CPUs which also wasn’t in the limelight since only the high end i7/i9 CPUs were seeing significant failures being reported. I’d imagine a mini PC would be pretty safe.

This isn’t usually the cause. If the cable isn’t inserting fully then yes it can be dust and that often helps the problem, but the retention mechanism itself wears out over time leading to the cable slipping out easily and depending on the design things can get wobbly. I work with electronics for a living and with laptops more often than not it’s the latter category with dust not being too common of an issue since they aren’t kept in pockets. Phones on the other hand it’s usually dust, but I don’t interact with many USB C phones old enough for wear to be an issue.
