No no, that one’s a knockoff. You can tell because they made it out of an actual dumpster.

uis ,

No, what you are thinking is knockoff. This is 100% original dumpster.

Here’s the way: look at the little “crack” on the middle of the plug on one side (the vast vast vast majority have one) – that should be facing down. I haven’t used a vertical plug in a while but I think it faces left there.

For the forsaken anguish of God, microUSB, it’s reversed, so crack up.

Albbi ,

This post cracked me up!

But seriously, this is the way. Works even when the cable wasn’t properly marked with a USB symbol.

Hootz , in ts moment

Used teamspeak untill me and my crew switched to mumble. They all use discord now though so fuck the traitors.

interdimensionalmeme ,

Been on mumble over a decade, I can’t imagine why anyone would want to use discord. Although there’s something fishy about mumble.com

Only a matter of time before Discord does a Reddit.

Hootz ,

Pretty sure they have already started. There’s been controversy with discord doing shit in the past that was leaning that way.

justme , in We had an r/place at my engineering school

In Germany it’s normal to discuss politics in school, is even part of the curriculum. It’s just highly prohibited to discuss parties.

trolololol ,

Discuss politics for 40 hours without mentioning a party

The American mind cannot comprehend this

justme ,

You are allowed to mention them and explain what they officially stand for, we even made roleplays, to simulate how the parliament works (the class was distributed into parties according to the distribution of Parliament at that time and everybody tried to pass a law), it’s too tricky for me to explain the fineprint in english , sorry ;)

captainlezbian ,

It is in America too. I had to debate shit like gay marriage in high school. We even have mandatory civics classes that teach you how the government works and my teacher told us how jury nullification works and why you should never talk to cops

Mirshe ,

We sure do NOT have universally mandatory civics, not anymore. I graduated in 09 and my school district didn’t teach anyone anything beyond the basics of the voting system.

Looking at the connector fixes the positron & you can connect first try.

halvar , in USB tunneling

One day I realized I developed a skill for correctly inserting the USB on first try and I’m in an existential crisis ever since.

The “empty” half of the plug (with the two hollow squares) is either at the top or on the right in 99% of cases. Once you realize that you barely ever have to flip it even one time.

Zagorath ,
@Zagorath@aussie.zone avatar

Do you mean the empty half of the cable? Because the plug itself has the empty half on the bottom.

Usually easier to look for the USB logo or company’s branded logo on top. The bottom is usually blank or containing legal info. The bottom also has the zig-zaggy join in the metal.

meekah ,
@meekah@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah they’re talking about the cable, as that’s usually easier to look at. Also a plug is on the cable, and a socket is on devices.

nudnyekscentryk ,
@nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info avatar

Exactly

Zagorath ,
@Zagorath@aussie.zone avatar

Also a plug is on the cable

Maybe this is an American English thing, because to me the plug is the socket. The two words are synonyms. Like I’d talk about the electricity plug in the wall.

EtherWhack ,
@EtherWhack@lemmy.world avatar

Could be, though I’ve heard people use plug interchangeably.

Connections for data, the female side is usually called a port; for electrical, it’s officially called a receptacle, though more commonly called an outlet or sometimes a socket. The male side is always the plug.

onion ,

USB has the female side on the cable :)

nudnyekscentryk ,
@nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info avatar

I’m European but I’m an English second language speaker, so that may be the reason I use this words that way. However wikipedia for example calls the male part the plug and the female the receptacle as well

BCsven ,

Americans often call the wall plate the plugs, but technically in electeical hardware ordering catalogs the wall end is a female receptacle, and the cord end is a male plug

nudnyekscentryk ,
@nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info avatar

Plug is on the male part on the cable. Receptacle is the female part on the device

EtherWhack ,
@EtherWhack@lemmy.world avatar

Part of the reasoning is that dust can’t really settle on the contacts if they are facing down. It’s the same for the most part with rj45 (ethernet) ports.

BCsven ,

The irony is the USB keyboard- mouse -peripheral switcher I bought has the USB ports upside-down from normal

Alsephina , in We had an r/place at my engineering school

Everything is politics, and should be talked about.

Also this would’ve been much more fitting with the Luhansk https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/3a9a9c10-36d6-4e2f-913c-cca59ea5f86d.png or Donetsk https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/c57ab014-f33e-4be9-ab2f-99251dbe5e9a.png flags instead of the Kiev regime’s, since the post-2014 coup government did commit a genocide in Eastern Ukraine.

Mubelotix OP ,
@Mubelotix@jlai.lu avatar

Yes. It’s a screenshot of our template for the r/place. I included Ukraine because some people disliked it too

JohnDClay ,

Or use the Ukraine flag since Russia is currently committing genocide with forced relocations including children. Russification is not great.

drathvedro ,

You’d have to be completely out of your mind to call the Donbas war a genocide. And that’s coming from Russian national who frequently calls out Ukraine government for being the same sort of garbage as Russian, if not much worse.

So unless this is some form of high level meta-sarcasm and/or trolling, I’d advise you and everyone who upvoted this to seek therapy.

I’m absolutely still using teamspeak. Nice and light, and it let’s us run a soundboard plugin that let’s you have unlimited length audio clips. I just wish they’d update the plugin to support the 64-bit version.

Both of those statements are categorically false.

mumblerfish ,

In Sweden they seem to be trying to make the first one true. A university made it forbidden to have ‘any conversation that may be interpreted as political to a passer-by’ anywhere on campus. It was celebrated by the minister for higher education (liberal party member) as a brilliant step against “wokeness”. It was retracted, because it is not possible to enforce. But the government is doing an investigation against universities to root out “wokeness”.

mindbleach ,

But the government is doing an investigation against universities to root out “wokeness”.

Which is a course of action rooted in politics.

Specifically, fascism.

GarbageShoot , in We had an r/place at my engineering school

The closest thing to genocide in Ukraine is the conscription carried out by the banderite government for the meat grinder of an unwinnable war.

antifa ,

No, the closest thing to genocide in Ukraine is the genocide being carried out by russia and defended by crypto-fascists

GarbageShoot ,

No need to resort to incoherent name-calling.

Russia invaded Ukraine, but war is not genocide, as much as the banderite government likes to turn everything into genocide to minimize their history of the original Banderites and other collaborators perpetrating the actual Holocaust.

If Russia wanted to carry out the war in a way that involved genocide, just carpet-bombing cities or things like that, it absolutely could, it has maybe the second or third strongest air force in the world. Luckily for everyone involved (other than perhaps frontline Russians), Russia knows that it shouldn’t do that, and so it isn’t.

I don’t see why you feel the need to so readily call people who disagree with you fascists. I don’t think you’re a fascist, I just think you’re a well-meaning individual who was tricked by the PR of a liberal-fascist alliance. What would make me a fascist? I certainly don’t like Russia, I don’t have some fantasy of the Eurasian peninsula united under the Russian Federation. I’m not here to tell you that Putin is a good guy, he’s a mafioso like you see at the head of most liberal states. I’ve got no problem with people speaking Ukrainian, though I sure wish they’d find a better national hero than, it must be repeated, a literal perpetrator of the Holocaust, but I also think those weirdos in Russia who worship the pogromist Tsar Nicholas II should get a better idol as well. Please, tell me what kind of fascist I am.

How’s the anti-terrorist operation in Donbas going, champ? Oh, half the Ukrainian army left to fight for the RuZZian terrorists?! Yikes, better call Lindsay Graham, Amy Klobuchar, John McCain, and Victoria Nuland, the real architects of the plan. I’m sure the West’s limitless arsenal and money will be able to support Ukraine against those dirty bydlo vatniks, heh heh. After all, haven’t you seen all those videos on reddit of their crazy shit falling apart? This is gonna be a piece of cake.
