"broken build" here likely refers to the phrase as defined by gamers to function as synonymous to "overpowered".

As in, "the build is so broken you can't/it is difficult to play against it". This phraseology could be used by either an ally or an enemy, but it contextually changes connotation from positive for allies to negative for enemies.

Build is often used as a shorthand for a character's combination of items, skills, and levels (as the various games define it).

Ok. Can you back that up with a source?

Fast pace tiktok style videos aren't really great to analyze on a phone, and your clip doesn't seem to contain any outbound links.

Oh totally. I have a pile of RS-232 adapters that you still need to program just about every modern Ethernet switch, and they're all type-A ports.

No we're not OK

I remember in grade school my district had a system where everyone who bought anything at the cafeteria went through an internal "type in your ID to the pin pad" system. Internally, the computer would decide whether the student was charged against their account or if it did a discount/free. This was how they dealt with that.

Not on all vendors tho - coloring was an optional part of the standard. Dell often uses grey for USB3

If you're trying to get Lemmy to print the backslash, you need to make it a double backslash since backslash is an "escape" character that means "ignore any special formatting meaning of the next character" (among other meanings)

You'd be surprised. My mouse only needs 2.0, but uses a C connector for compatibility. It provides an A to C cable with only 2.0 wiring, which is a decision I assume they made to allow the wire to be more flexible as it can be charged during use or used entirely wired.

Where I went to college, they probably didn't directly have the key, that'd have to go through maintenance. But one of the things you signed on to initially was for maintenance to enter if they needed to while you were out.

Plus, at least half of the WAPs were actually in rooms and not hallways, so to service the network beyond IDF problems they'd have to get in
