Its fed by a high value resistor - going high or open is a very common fault.

"Mr. Man-wai Chang" <toylet.toylet@gmail.com>: Sep 02 09:23PM +0800 Maximum output of USB Type-C 2.0 is 20V, 5A. Could it kill??       Full story: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/mar/30/amazon-clamps-down-dangerous-usb-c-cables   Amazon has banned USB-C charging cables that do not comply with specifications, awhich are considered dangerous as they can damage devices they are used with and potentially cause safety risks.   The USB-C specification, which includes a reversible connector that can plug in either way up, was designed as the do-it-all cable capable of charging computers as well as smartphones, tablets and other low-power gadgets.   Amazon's move sees it acting as a de facto quality control agent for the USB-C cables, helping users steer clear of much needed but sub-standard products. Many USB-C enabled devices come only with USB-C to USB-C cables, not with cables for plugging into older chargers or computers – which commonly have USB-A connections.   Designed under the USB 3.1 specification, USB-C can deliver a larger amount of power than older USB cables allowing them to be used to charge computers such as Apple's MacBook and Google's Chromebook, both of which require significantly more power than smartphones do.   To do so, USB-C cables have a 56k ohm resistor that allows the power supply and the device plugged into it to work out the correct power level that suits both ends of the charging party, making sure the device does not draw more power than the plug can supply. The Amazon sign Facebook Twitter Pinterest Amazon nows prohibit 'any USB-C (or USB Type-C) cable or adapter product that is not compliant with standard specifications issued by 'USB Implementers Forum Inc'." Photograph: Reed Saxon/AP   Unfortunately some USB-C cables have been made with the incorrect resistor, typically only 10k ohm, which means that it is possible for the device to draw more power than the plug can safely supply or potentially for the plug to push more power than the device can take. Others are wired incorrectly, which could destroy whatever they are plugged into.     -- @~@ Remain silent! Drink, Blink, Stretch!

N_Cook <diverse@tcp.co.uk>: Sep 02 12:33PM +0100 I expected one of my sites to be on archive.org, originally it was , but not now Looking at robots.txt file (Currently ) User-agent: * Disallow: /cgi-bin/ Disallow: /cgi/   (dec 2012 from archive.org ) # Default /robots.txt File for all Community Architect Partner pages   User-agent: * Disallow: /cgi-bin/   I looked at the wiki on this , but does not explain what is/not involved in "/cgi/" statement   I assume because its an ads paid for site and they get no revenue from such caches, no remote linking allowed presumably for same reason. 1/ If I have access to that directory, I doubt I do, would changing it back to as before corrupt operations? robots.txt has not appeared on any directory listing I've made , while on upload/download access to it.   2/ On another site , via www access , there is no robots.txt, does that mean it should turn up on archive.org (if it is aware of the site + page that is) ?
