Nice meme but please:
There also was a cool one with a monitorhead
He got tha apple vision on got damn
He’s very good
I stumbled upon a fully reversible USB A to Micro-B cable a couple weeks ago. Blew my mind.
link doesn’t load but one came with my jbl speaker (type-c-to-a with reversible usb-a side)
the middle part is a bit floppy and just slides off to the right side when you push it in
it works surprisingly well and still works even after a year of use
I used such a cable from ugreen. This cable lasted 1 month, while standard cables from this company lasted for years.
This happened at my first job.
While walking past an office I got called in, the headmaster’s secretary and the music teacher were struggling and told me the flash drive they had does not work.
So I take a look and pull the flash drive out of the Ethernet port and plugged it into a USB port and told them they need to plug it into the correct port.
The look on their faces.
But then I admitted to them that I had never seen this happen before and that I didn’t know that the Ethernet port was the right width to take a flash drive.
I mentioned this can be done on a Discord server I am on and nobody would believe me so I just told them to give it a try. They probably think I was trolling to this day.

All I see is *******
USB-C stick 4tw.
Until you find out that a usbc plug fits inside a usba port and you can mix them up when reaching around your computer. (Don’t test this on anything that is powered on, I did it on accident once and it triggered my motherboards usb overcurrent failsafe)
Did this (on purpose) to HP laptops we were discarding at work (Elitebook G5) and you kill the entire USB-A part of the machine.
10/10 would HP again
Likely RIP PCH (or the CPU, if those 2 are combined). That’s kinda weird they don’t install protection on USB ports 'cause those are like 20 cents (at least judging by those in my t480). On the other hand, HP’s gonna HP
HP = Horrible Product
My cheap AM3 motherboard doesn’t cares about USB short circuts. So it’s HP’s deliberate miscalculation.
same with my old lenovo laptop, i shorted both the power and data pins literally hundreds of times while tinkering with microcontrollers, and all it did is disable the ports until a reboot
It is definitely HP just being HP.
Other non HP machines we have are just fine if you short the USB-A ports
Duude I tried blindly plugging in a USB-C at the back of my PC ones, I was like “Aha, gotcha” and then my PC just shut down. First came confusion, then I realized it wiggled left and right. That was incredibly scary, luckily ASRock has good protection circuits so nothing happened.
But I sure as hell haven’t blindly plugged in USB-C since then.
I had a call to fix a guy’s printer. Look at the back and he’s managed to somehow jam the USB-B plug in upside down, destroying the port. He was elderly, and I don’t know how he managed to apply the force needed. Luckily this printer also can be connected via ethernet. Unluckily, he had previously jammed it into the ethernet port, also destroying it.
My guys plug USB-B into the printer’s Ethernet port just fine without destroying it. I also did the same a couple times… I mean it fits perfectly.
Getting the entire Internet on a USB stick
> Golf pal of dad go to Japan for business, > he has prostitute over, > goes at it like a wild rabbit > she keeps screaming "Ana chigai!! Ana chigai!!" > he thinks she mean big praise, great or wow > next day he go golf with japanese businessman > Japanese man get a hole in one! > dad pal scream "Ana chigai!" to praise him > Japanese man turn to him, looking confused > > "What you mean, wrong hole?"Your flash drive: “Ana chigai!”
Every time I plugged USB-C into SDCX: perfect height, but why are you moving?
plugs flash stick into Ethernet port
Flash stick bulges and pops like a balloon as the internet streams into it
3 tries only if you’re lucky. Normally it’s upwards of 5 or even infinite until you actually look at the port
Schrödinger’s port
I flipped one like 5 times yesterday before I realized that I was 90 degrees off…
Aye I did this the other day and was like “wtf? Oh.”
A classmate of mine once couldn’t use the ethernet cable in the lab because the RJ45 on his laptop was all mangled. Because he was gonna watch porn at night. Porn he had on a USB stick to hide from his wife. He wasn’t very happy that day.

This one speaks to me
