    I’m a “push buttons” computer nerd, not a “series of tubes” computer nerd

    Why does this thing exist? What’s it for? Please treat me like one of the chimps from 2001 discovering the monolith, because that’s what the network is to me.

    Also left one can fuck right off. Nobody tells me what I can’t unplug.

      We’re running that cable direct into the case and soldering the connectors, just for you. We’ll decide when you can disconnect.

          I mean that’s why VGA connectors have screws, right?

          and this is why NEC requires clamps on wires housed in boxes through walls.

      It’s there so the little plastic tab that keeps the Ethernet cable plugged in doesn’t break easily.

      Because honestly, those little plastic tabs are a shit design for keeping something important plugged in.

        Thank you, I imagine it’s incredibly annoying when those break.

          Eh, just takes a few minutes to replace. Though if you do it too often you can start to run into length issues.
