Selected filmography
gollark: The original intended use *was* just mice and keyboards and whatnot.
gollark: 12V might have been good. I'm not sure why they didn't use it.
gollark: USB-C with whatever power delivery stuff can do 12V, at least.
gollark: Running USB devices off alkaline batteries is kind of niche and was especially niche when the standard was made.
gollark: <@151391317740486657> *But* computer PSUs also have 5V rails. 12V and 3.3V too though, I'm not sure why they didn't use those.
