So in my Computer Graphics class (we learn how to use photoshop, illustrator, etc) there were a few upperclassmen in the back of the room trying to build a "Gaming" pc (i3, no GPU). I was kind of watching them out of the corner of my eye for a while, and it looked as if the only instructions they were given were "all of these pieces go into this big box". They didn't use any of the motherboard standoffs, they forgot thermal paste and figured "it'll be fine", and they somehow (dont ask me how) got the cpu in BACKWARDS. SERIOUSLY. Like, rotated 180 degrees. With the retainer down and everything. HOW DO YOU EVEN DO THAT??

 

I swear I can never unsee that you guys. It was truly disturbing...

How can a young person not know how to build a computer? That's almost the one thing we are good at.

I guess you COULD utilize your hard disk caches as RAM. You could several gigabytes actually by hooking up a bunch of HDD's with a 128 MB cache each.

For to use the data storage caches as RAM, use a SSD NVMe PCIe 4.0 x4 (7.8GB/s), same performance as DDR2 PC2-8000 :D

Seen someone today in the dimmer room (Where we patch dimmed power lanterns (15 amp)) 

He's a new kid learning the ropes, I think he was on placement

We have 3 x 3 phase power (64 amps) that come into the room where we can plug the dimmers into. 

Someone asks him to plug dimmer rack 3 into no3 socket on the wall. (pretty normal request in a theatre) 

These bad bays are a bit of a tight fit and take a good push to get them in.

he doesn't know this, so has a look up the female side on the wall, then proceeds to try and get his finger into one of the holes (you can fit a pinkie in if you try) 

I walk in and literally kick his hip to push him away from this, and proceed to explain that in 3 phase power, every pin is a live pin. 

Is it not common sense that you don't stick a finger into a plug socket? 

He could have been dead on the floor if he had managed to get his finger in. 

 

Also each rack has 60 dimmers and they're 2400w each, and im pretty sure most of the channels were already live for so that when they came online the bar of lights we just rigged would come on. We deal with some real power

I mean, a TRRS connector and USB A do have the same number of pins, so this could make "sense," I just don't see a use case.

 

Would be a cool cable for a keyboard.

One more: Around 10 people or so at my school type with their two index fingers adn nothing else. Remember, these are HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS TYPING WITH THEIR INDEX FINGERS. They're actually pretty fast typing like that though.

I don't "touch type" but I do use much more than 2 fingers... And don't have to look on keyboard.

That's an iPod Shuffle USB cable.

 

 

There's probably a few other uber obscure devices that use it (there are devices that use TS/TRS power bricks), but the Shuffle gen 2+ had to use TRRS due to form factor.

Well, I was thinking just use a trrs jack instead of a usb port on the board (A custom pcb w/ an integrated controler)  but your idea would be even better.

He knows now. we now have a company policy (as im currently on a tour) that only certain people are allowed to do patching and be in the dimmer room of the venue. 

I did spend my lunch hour with him showing and doing 3 phase socket wiring, along with 15 amp. The more you know! 

he will probs never use that info, apart from don't jam a finger into a socket.

so this one time I was hanging out with my friend who is the manager at a tech shop by where I live and a girl comes in and buys a 2tb hard drive. we let her know that we install hard drives for $1 (the cost of the sata cable we use) and she says "just because I am a woman does not mean I cant work on computers" and leaves in a huff. two days later she comes back in saying that the HDD is not working so we take the computer in to look at it, we open it and the HDD is nowhere to be seen, so we ask her where it is. and it turns out that she scanned it and put the scanned image on her desktop to install the drive. and to top that off she threw away the drive she paid almost $200 for and she wanted us to give her a new one.

 

 

 

EDIT: feel free to quote this comment, I like seeing peoples reactions even though the comment is 2+ years old.

 I am actually appalled, I mean WTH??

At me or quote me, I want to hear your opinion.

 

Hopefully anything I say is factually correct. Sorry for any mistakes in advanced.

 Bout to show the secretary how to print an invoice to PDF and email it, she says go step by step so she can write it down.

Users are probably used to consumer devices like iPads where everything is on one screen.

 

... it is on one part of the screen (the fucking start menu), but they just don't learn.

On my way home from work on the train, I heard this from a conversation between two guys talking about laptops.

 

"Dude, don't get an AMD or INTEL, they both blow, get an ASUS."

I'm like, what the hell?

Ended up just doing it myself out on the shop pc, didn't have time to train her how to do it again for the 5th time. She's old and just can't retain new information, keeps getting peoples names and cars all mixed up all the time, pretty sure she's loosing it mentally.
