I'll try something different, every day I'll try to come up with some believable-sounding tech fake news (trying to keep it harmless)

Did you know? USB-C stands for "USB Charger", and was originally meant to primarily carry current, not signals. Only after pressure from Apple they added in signal wires - industry experts believe it was an attempt to make the cables more expensive.

Fun fact: “Unreal Tournament” was supposed to be called “Real Tournament,” but when the first game released in the EU, the Trade Comission called it “deceptive marketing” and sanctioned Epic for 2.2mn €. They changed it to “Unreal Tournament” because of that. Also why it’s Unreal Engine and not RE!
