    when your main stat is strength, and you’ve entirely ignored int/wis

    Seriously though, if the cable doesn’t want to come out with reasonable force, the solution is PROBABLY NOT to apply more force. What kind of cavemen do you have working there?

      cavemen

      Worse. University students.

      I’m a sysadmin at a university. Last semester, we lost five DP cables, two DP-VGA adapters, one graphics card, and one motherboard to these acts of barbarism. Plus the non-DP stuff – keyboards with missing or broken keys, mice with buttons bent out or just smashed to bits, RS232 connectors broken because they forgot to unscrew them, all kinds of USB cables cracked at the connector because students unplug them to use with their own laptops and plug them back into the front IO creating a nice little 180° bend, countless ethernet cables ripped out of the motherboard, stolen equipment, monitors that were straight up broken off their stands…

      Calling them “cavemen” is an insult to cavemen.

        Hear hear! Glad someone recognizes we’re not all barbarians who wreck anything we touch
