Solid guess. You know your USB 2.0 USB-C to USB-C charging cables. (Its a 60w capable cable btw, not 120w or 240w, so don't bother trying to power your gaming laptop with it)

Because I'm the kind of nerd with a Lemmy account and opinions on systemd. I had my own crashout about USB cables a few months ago.
