I’m guessing you also ,like myself, have a large box of “useful cables.” 😎

Looks like a boba fat movie prop 🤔😉

Dude: "Not many adapters can be connected in a row" Tubetime: "Hold my beer"

fdboer.bsky.social•110 days ago

And still there are two open ports ...

this is the kind of contraption that killed Shinzo Abe

And Tx and Rx are still reversed!

i think i like the sonic screwdriver part at the top best

And I thought my mini-USB to DVI stack was bad

How do you go about reporting a war crime?

phyrexianmetamour.bsky.social•120 days ago

this looks like that tear gun

locnar1701.bsky.social•120 days ago

I am very happy you were able to make that.

... and the person who thinks it should work.

bikeengineer.bsky.social•120 days ago

This reminds me of so many times I’ve had to connect to an old machine. So many adapters stacked.

I am in physical pain right now :'D...

Cuuuuurrsed!!!

Signal to noise ratio has entered the chat

plc.hotsocket.fyi•120 days ago

but does it do anything useful?

natanael.bsky.social•120 days ago

I see a bunch of non-audio stuff so not likely. Several things probably don't talk compatible protocols. Now if you modded the circuitry then probably

kolbenkopp.bsky.social•120 days ago

Audio jacks are *so* versatile. Big fan!

askforjoy.bsky.social•120 days ago

This is incredibly cursed.

Just a few.

a reasonable assemblage

pestalella.bsky.social•120 days ago

- But Steve, why do you keep those boxes full of weird connectors? They are just taking space.
- One day, honey, I may need them.

isitreallyuwu.bsky.social•120 days ago

Will there be any signal left, I am dying to hear/see the singal strength

nickwrightdata.ntw.app•120 days ago

Oh this picture was taken back in 2020, I doubt OP is the, well, OP.

tubetime.bsky.social•120 days ago

i'm the OP. i took the photo and posted it on twitter back then where it went viral, and it got copied all over the place, winding up on reddit and tumbler and so on. and so it goes.

nickwrightdata.ntw.app•120 days ago

Glad to be wrong about this! Did you ever try to get a proper signal from one end to the other?

whatabouttheken.bsky.social•119 days ago

Unfortunately a couple of those are active/digital adaptors and don't just pass signal through. The 10base-2 MAU and joystick adapter for sure, and potentially one of the parallel adaptors

tubetime.bsky.social•120 days ago

nope lol

vxo.bsky.social•120 days ago

I suspect the only thing that'd be continuous is the ground, at about pi ohms

isitreallyuwu.bsky.social•120 days ago

Gotcha, still always love seeing photos like this.
