Motivations of USB-C, Onebag, Minimalism

June 25, 2025

Introduction

This is a rough attempt at a limerick, although I’ve not gotten the precise rhythm down.

We stand before the creation of new religions as new ways of being and existence come to play.

The reward of college is not just income but more work: internships to fly one across the land in numbers and manners previously unknown. Without good organization, you will be weak: your checked bags may lose themselves, TSA may steal from you, and you may have proper clothing for neither rain nor snow.

In my whole life I have struggled for material surplus and understanding so that the world might yield to my capabilities, and not the other way around. My posture in the car is contorted by their head-pushing chair designs, our neck and hip alignment weakened by computers, the natural disorganization and entropy that chases us, the deprivations of cold and heat I have all suffered through my journey.

The right patterns I have found, now I share them with you.

Minimalism

Now we see the necessity of packing light. A checked bag is more expensive and simply a blight.

Sacrifice quality for quantity to become gross and deformed. Like factory farmed chickens are larger yet less dense in how they are born. Have a big house and you shall have a big expenditure.

You are but a maple seed, drifting in the wind. To a new place and a new home that suits you hopefully you shall find, if it lands well then you shall sprout. As we humans become mobile and move around, is it not like the head of cabbage that sprouts in stress, flowering its seeds to potential whereabouts?

In the past starvation of quantity brought immigrants to the United States. But now the supermarkets give us a starvation of quality. To where shall I go? The Northeast? The West? Across the sea to Europe? The land here is destroyed, parking lots dot the land. Better to be an animal in motion than a plant awaiting destruction.

Electronics

Electronics are a necessity for this digital age. Whether a phone for contact, a laptop for homework, a tablet for drawing, or even a toothbrush, your life is powered by electricity.

To USB-C everything means to minimize the cords and their charging block. GaN in hand, USB-C cord drawn, you can power all that you have.
