Some people just want to watch the world burn.

One of those big old audio jacks. Bonus points for use of metal and leaving a good chunk of it ‘sticking out’.

Remember parallel connection? You know, that giant ass VGA lookalike that worked like a slower version of USB? Let’s make a connector sleeve that looks like that, surely it’s not a terrible idea at all even if your phone has a headphone jack (it blocks the headphone jack from being used due to its size).

Hey, I’d buy it. Maybe, I mean money is pretty tight.

Make it look like an old Apple 30-pin.

Aasikki ,

That could actually be one of the more confusing ones.

Especially on an Android phone :-)

al177 ,

But one of those chonky third party ones with the buttons on the sides, and have a FireWire cable coming out of there too for that 2003 feel

doctorcrimson ,

I’ve seen a few renditions of this one so far:

IMALlama ,

You inspired at least one print. Thankfully, I have blue filament on hand!

ULS ,

Boof it!!!

siravious ,

Haha this is brilliant

At first I thought it was great standard connector. It turns out to be non-standard garbage.

ULS ,

You have to buy a million dollar iPod to use it.

this is the most comments I’ve seen on lemmy. now i know the community I’m in. God help me.

Leave a factually incorrect, unprompted whataboutism about socialism or communism in a thread criticizing capitalism and I bet you could rival this comment count.

tocopherol ,

There was a thread this week about Biden’s achievements and it got at least 600 comments haha.

@SoleInvictus@lemmy.world avatar

Nice! I can definitely see how that would stir the pot. I’ve had a lot of good discussion on Lemmy, I really enjoy it.

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

I like it here too. It’s smaller, nicer than… That other, silly place.

What, you an HDMI guy? Son, we charge our laptops with VGA cables

EdibleFriend ,
@EdibleFriend@lemmy.world avatar

I came back to see how many people were truly offended by this like I was and…yeah. These are my people.

uis ,
@uis@lemmy.world avatar

Can explain to someone with english skill issue?

ULS ,

Op still uses VGA. And is offended. 😬

Quoll_Strife ,

My second monitor (CRT) is using a VGA to HDMI adapter.

ULS ,

Not in this house!

Aasikki ,

I had to double check I wasn’t on Reddit lol. Glad to see it.

An ethernet cable that’s actually wired for a serial port

looks at network hardware vendors

uis ,
@uis@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve seen it

droans ,

Sounds like someone accidentally used the wrong port a few times.

ULS ,

But there aren’t any screws!?

PlutoniumAcid OP ,
@PlutoniumAcid@lemmy.world avatar

That’s what she said?

macrocephalic ,

That’s a valid use of Cat5 cable.

WaterWaiver ,

Lawful good: Please don’t use 8P8C for anything other than 10/100/1000BASE* compatible protocols, especially on network devices. It’s confusing.
Chaotic good: Please don’t use ethernet cable for anything other than ethernet compatible protocols, especially on ethernet devices.
Lawful evil: That’s a valid use of Cat5 cable.
Chaotic evil: Let’s talk about RS-485

True neutral: Wires are just wires and standards are just standards. In a parallel dimensions, somewhere, cat5 is used for 8-phase delta mains power.

@woodenskewer@lemmy.world avatar

That’s a console cable. They’re actually useful.

Bluefalcon ,

First we has the Flesh Light. Then we broke the mold with the Vajankle. Now we have cracked the code with the VaGC!

circasurvivor ,

I think it was in an episode of Mindhunters when they’re speaking with Ed Kemper or someone, and he talks about cutting his mom’s head off and having sex with her neck.

I had to look up what in the world a vajankle was, and I thought, “that’s some serial killer shit.” I don’t even mean that in a kink shaming kind of way, that line from Kemper was just the first thing that popped into my mind… but thank you, I guess; now I know that’s something that exists.

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

I checked and this came up. I don’t know what it is, but it’s gotta be pretty damn good at $270…

Buddahriffic ,

When product reviews give you a small glimpse into a different kind of life…

It’s a chastity cage, so one can’t use their dick. Something used in various kink scenes. Typically they are made of plastic, dunno if a metal one is a good idea if you need to take it off, haha.

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

I’m already not using my dick, what good would this do??

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

I searched Etsy for Vajankle. I did get the one vajankle, amid a gallery of horrors.
