Old meme, classic VGA and DVI cables, plus a phono plug.

I love finding secondhand gear and accessories especially when they cost pennies on the dollar compared to new

I'm staying at the #place where I am #today for a few weeks. There are so many street sellers nearby and I've found HDMI cables, old-school audio cables, various USB drives and devices...

Yesterday my mouse started going crazy so I went out on the street and quickly found a seller with a box of them. I figured there was a good chance a mouse I bought that way wouldn't function but the price was very low so I chose one to see what would happen. It works perfectly! It's super smooth and it even has a cool color LED strip. Score!

I bought a USB-C power supply, but didn't realize it used an IEC 60320 C5 cable. Do I know anyone who has a "Mickey Mouse" cable in their Box o' Cords that they would be willing to part with?

We all know who’s behind it, and this another reason why the West should always stand up to Russia. Peace is the last thing on Putin’s mind…

#Underwater #Cables That Carry the #Internet Are in Trouble
#Russia, #China, and the #US, have the ability to attack cables, which could cause massive disruptions to global internet and weaken transportation grids.
To protect cables, US should lead a global effort, including using #UnitedNations Convention on the Law of the Sea, creating an international military coalition, and incorporating technological advances into the undersea-cable ecosystem.

This special non-spec USB-C extension cable has also worked for me, even for displays:

Today, I buy this one passive USB-C cable that supports 240W/80Gbps to ensure it works for my displays & laptops. (The spec limits cable length to 3.3ft however, the above 4.9' cable has worked fine for me):

🇮🇪 L'Irlande ne possède aucun système de radar primaire. Il n'y a ni sonar, ni équipement de détection anti-drones, ni de capacité à les neutraliser. Ses dépenses annuelles de défense sont à 0.2% du PIB soient les plus faibles d'🇪🇺. #ireland #dublin #drones #threats [ information.tv5monde.com/inter ]

  • Quasiment trois quarts (3/4) des câbles sous-marins transatlantiques traversent ses eaux ou passent à proximité. #cables

La vulnérabilité de l'Irlande tient à son importance pour les communications et les systèmes économiques mondiaux, ce qui en fait une cible. #telecom #economic

Yes, I have one (in fact several…) of those #cables boxes. And not only for #apple stuff.

A cartoon depicts a man holding a box filled with tangled cables. Above him is the caption "THE BEST DAY OF MY FATHER'S LIFE," and below, he questions, "Did you say you needed a six-pin-to-eight-pin FireWire for a 2006 MacBook?"

#Underwater #cables are a vital piece of the #AI buildout and #internet — investment is booming
Over 95% of international data and voice call traffic travels through nearly a million miles of underwater communication cables.
Investment into new #subseacable projects is expected to reach around $13 billion between 2025-2027, almost twice the amount that was invested between 2022 and 2024, according to telecommunications data provider firm TeleGeography.
