@ari this requires a chip to negotiate with the phone to even show up ​

@ari

Are you serious?

@ari what kind of lamp is that?

@ari im sorry??

@openess the same lamp that's lit my room and charged my phone for years!

@HopelessDemigod quite! i'm still not entirely sure why this happened

@niko this chip must have laid dormant for many years LOL

@rwrv it's okay i forgive you

@ari@fedi.arimelody.space @rwrv@critter.cafe I don't. sorry. this is irredeemable. once a light source always a light source

@ari@fedi.arimelody.space @rwrv@critter.cafe how dare you brighten my day

@ari When I tell people many things they don't think are computers are actually computers this is the kind of funny thing phones will think are computers

@ari This is why I'm turbo strict about what I'll plug anything in to to charge. Can't trust shit these days. I don't even trust other people's normal ass chargers.

@prettygood @ari wireless chargers are clearly the only safe option anymore /hj
nothing but good old induction based charging

@ari macOS could connect to an iOS device and initiate a backup via WiFi, but that has to be set up on the mac first

this is spooky

@kuriko (i did set this up and this is likely what occurred)

@ari

Ah! Technology.
