wikipedia usb4 article posted:The USB4 specification is based on the Thunderbolt 3 protocol specification. Support of interoperability with Thunderbolt 3 products is optional for USB4 hosts and USB4 peripheral devices, and is required for USB4 hubs on their downward facing ports and for USB4-based docks on their downward and upward facing ports. On the other hand, support for USB4 is required in Thunderbolt 4. this is so incredibly stupid i can totally see why apple only ever marketed its usb-c ports as thunderbolt 3 and stayed completely out of usb compability bullshit, because even on a unified connector and electrical standard, we still have this garbage.

Rufus Ping posted:great apart from when waking My Macbook fails to bring the monitor back from standby for some reason. which i think is a crapple problem it is, the same thing has happened to me across many, many (intel) macbooks pro and air and a bazillion different display configs. usually it's much worse over hdmi to the point signaling works at all, but even using dp the monitor sometimes needs to be unplugged from mains and plugged back in, just the dp cable will still refuse to sync. i haven't really been determined enough to try to find a permanent cause/fix since i can't seem to pin down any specific event that makes it lose its handshake

yeah it's only happened once lately and it resyncs with the off/on button for me but this also power cycles the built in usb hub which is a pain
