Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

rgb mini led lcdt i was like it's ridiculous it's so confusing sqd super quantum all right what's worse for naming tv display technology or usb standards tv display because in tv displays every single manufacturer has their own branded version of what the actual generic technology is called and usb didn't do that
