Comment on Me trying to insert a flash drive at night

One time I went to plug in my headphone and I accidentally plugged it into the USB port next to the jack… My laptop died and had to have parts replaced. Guy at the shop told me I shouldn’t have done that 🙄. I just said they shouldn’t have designed those ports to be right next to each other if the product breaks when you hit the wrong one.
Anyway, be careful about plugging shit into the wrong port.

What connector did your headphones have? I’m trying to imagine you plugging an RCA jack into ethernet port.

TIL a jack is the thingy you plug in, I thought it was the thingy you plug into.
Um, just a normal earphones jack, I think that’s 3,5mm? Not RCA and I don’t have ethernet ports either 😄

Yeah, I meant 3.5 mm but I get lazy these days and call them all RCA jacks to mean “those perfectly fine audio jacks that have been replaced with usb and/or bluetooth”. As an unabashed pedant, I will try to do better.
