What would you do with RS-232 and RS-485?

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 12 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Hook up my US Robotics 56k modem and dial up to the internet, where I can chat with hot babes

After your training to become a cage fighter, I presume?

Time travel

I have a 485 adapter in my bag for BACnet and Modbus communications.

-485 is superior. Everyone knows it

And what the hell, add RS-422 while you're at it. And a parallel port! And the left side expansion port they used to have on the Amiga 500 and 1000!

And some ISDN BRI ports. And ATM and FDDI. And something I can do X.25 over. Oh, and Token Ring.
