Honestly, sometimes would be nice to have it while phone is charging and I want to use it.
What traumatic childhood event possesed you to do this to an innocent VGA plug?
Eww why ruin a good thing with CRapple…
Look at it the other way. It improved the crapple plug.
It’s great if you have an antique iPhone. Lulz
New 3d print target locked
Proprietary shitbag disguising itself as a beautiful standard
I prefer a good parallel port
3d print artifacts kind of spoil the retro aesthetic
SCSI or GTFO
The VGA plug in OP is part of a series and I bought all three, including the SCSI one (which is objectively the best one)
Hadn’t thought of RCV video plug, that’s good too.
This is actually a cute idea.
I want a Parallel adapter for the iPad.
USB C has a specification for screw locking, so this can happen in the future if it becomes a common practice.
This specification in conjunction with the USB Type-C Cable and Connector Specification define the following to provide standardized screw locking mechanisms for the USB Type-C plug:
I would buy this.
Ah, VGA (a Very Good Adapter)
I se you know your D-subminitures well.
I like it.
Wish I had a 3D printer now :/
You can get a great printer for not very much money these days
Not in my country 😬
Dang. Which country?
Egypt
Ah ok. Forgive my ignorance, but some of the most reliable and inexpensive printer manufacturers are Prusa (Czech Republic) and Bambu (China). Do they not ship to Egypt?
Import tariffs and shipping alone would cost more than triple the price :/
I’m pretty sure you can just buy those ends and slap em on
It’s just plastic molding around the connector.
Edit: it would probably help keep the connections stable by minimizing wiggle. Know how in old phones you’ve sometimes gotta get that plugged in juuuust right? I’d expect this to help prevent that.

In my experience, that generally means you just need to clean the pocket lint out of the USB port.
Or just that Micro-B was a shit-stain of a connector that depended on the world’s tiniest springs exhibiting no wear.
Mini-B was actually pretty solid.
Problem is how to fit it through the plug. You can’t just buy an old port and do this without splitting it open entirely
I’d imagine they would come like this and you just clip it on/glue the plastic together.
Just find someone with a printer, or checkout your library if they have one to use. The original design that was made was very stupid and required soldering and whatnot…
