Intel’s new Thunderbolt Share provides file and screen sharing without hurting network performance
step back in time ladies and germs, to a moment when local area networks don’e exist, where wifi has yet to be fathomed, and be amazed at the brand new technology of, wait, let me get this right, tethering your laptop to your desktop with a direct cable?
magic and wonders ladies and gentlemen, miracles in our time. hahahahahahahaha.
This new thunderbolt feature hilariously does what I once did with RS-232.
With just a smidge better throughout!
Why doesn’t this already work the way I would expect? You can plug your smartphone into your PC and access its entire filesystem, and they’re basically both computers. Why can’t this work the same way between PCs? Or why can’t I access my PC’s files from my phone?
Theoretically it should be possible. You can at least install MTP on Linux PCs and I bet there’s something for Windows as well. So I think at that point it’s up to the smartphone to have client support.
Meh, but I’m too lazy to test this.
Early smartphones had to unmount the sdcard so you can access it from PC, which is why mtp was invented. That’s why.
I mean, it is a dream. Make a simple thing so fucking complex that no one can replicate it, make it branded so that normies would want only it, and make it some many dollar seller component.
To all proponents of “tech should be available to people not understanding it”, how’s your day going?
