I mean, look at this bullshit, it's a lenovo thinkpad something something and they put a proprietary port on the side for connecting a special ethernet adapter

JUST MAKE IT A FEW MIL THICKER AND PUT A PROPER PORT ON THERE YOU BASTARDS

@troubleMoney I mean, an Ethernet port is way too thick for 2020 standards, but shouldn't USB(-C) suffice?
@troubleMoney On the other hand, I just remembered there's lots of laptops where the Ethernet port is semiclosed by default, you push it a bit, a door pulls down and cables fit in nicely, that way neither things are compromised. I've seen that done with USB-A as well recently too!
