A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

USB B is still the best
I'm so conflicted. It's way too chunky, but I've never had one fail and it's durable as shit. Damn.
There's a USB 3 B. I just encountered it, and that bitch somehow got chunkier.
Micro version too:
🤮 Those are sooo awful
But the devices are compatible with old micro usb cables at USB 2.0 speed and power.
TIL my external hard drives use micro 3b. I didn’t realize that was a standard.. figured it was a proprietary to prevent using the wrong cable..
Samsung phones used this for a couple years, I think around the S5 days?
Yes, the Galaxy S5 was the only Samsung flagship using the micro USB 3.0 port. They backpedaled to micro USB 2.0 in S6 and S7, and then migrated to USB-C in S8. I'm not sure about the Note series.
You can use an old micro usb cable in the small hole and it will likely work, only at USB 2.0 speed.
I doesn't break cause it's too chonky to be broken.
The micro USB most of us know already is a USB-B. Each cable before USB-C had USB-A on one side and USB-B on the other. The square-like one used for printers is a full-sized USB-B, as opposed to the one used in phones (micro USB-B).
I'm pretty sure there's also a micro USB-A that just never got adopted.
Yes, that's what I meant by "the micro USB most of us know". I don't think I've ever seen the A variant of micro USB.
Isn't that the PS3 controller cable? It's such a funky lil micro variant I'm so scared to lose my cable lol
Unlikely, the A plugs are for the host devices while the B plugs are for peripherals. It got blurred with smartphones (see: USB-OTG) but in general the host devices were big enough to have full-sized USB ports, so the smaller USB-Bs are extremely rare.
I have! It's apparently pretty common on e-bikes.
