Glad I kept some #retrocomputing gear around. I have some music on CD3 MaxiSingles that I needed to re-rip in lossless format. Trusty #TiBook and an old SmartDosk #FireWire CD reader/burner to the rescue

On Tom's Hardware, I read that #Apple being forced in Europe to have USB-C #iPhone devices, means I get to toss these special iPhone charge cables when I get a new iPhone in the #USA.
YAY!
Having both #Firewire (for Apple) and #usbc (for literally all other devices) is at best foolish and certainly wasteful. If Apple wanted to keep Firewire, they should have open-sourced it to make a de facto standard.
I'm grateful Europe had the sense to force Apple to standardize. Less is more, buckos.

doing some #VintageComputing tonight… had forgotten how good and versatile #FireWire used to be.
I have a few Firewire cables around in case I might need them, but I have not used Firewire in a very long time.

Unable To Connect Two DV Tape Decks Via Firewire on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS #2204 #firewire
The Apple Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter is a rather impressive piece of engineering. Inside the end-connector is a PCIe x1 interface card, with all signals passed on tiny individual cables.
It's pretty amazing to see the teardown.
Thanks to repoman27 on MacRumors' forums for the teardown gallery.

@thomasfuchs It was a game changer.
@norberteder @juergenlibertus ok, habe mir weniger um das Format als um die Hardware Gedanken gemacht. Halten meine Festplatten so lange? Ich weiß es nicht. Und ich habe jetzt schon Platten im Schrank liegen, für die ich keinen Anschluss mehr am iMac habe #Firewire . Wer weiß ob in 20 Jahren USB 3.1 überhaupt noch anschließbar sein wird geschweige denn die Platte dann noch anspringt…
Really obnoxious that #firewire was killed by #apple. I have a perfectly good audio interface that I can’t connect. Firewire to Thunderbolt 2 to Thunderbolt 3 is getting me nowhere. #music #audio #homestudio
