so my latest lead on troubleshooting my vr headset is i suspect my laptop might be failing to deliver constant power, making the headset blip and not come back wizh video

all signs point to needing a powered USB hub but zhen id have additional hub circuitry adding latency to everyzhing, and also it might not work and it costs £20

...i zhink i might just open kicad and make a single usb 3 to usb 3 connector zhat just breaks power out to an external supply at zhis rate

zhank you university for giving us all 5V 3A power supplies, zhis will certainly be used for its intended purpose and not to run an infernal creation to turn me into a critter
