Do you like a tactile click? Are you a sucker for screws? Or something you can put in any direction? Maybe it's yours or another country's power plugs?

This is sounding more sexual than I intended I think

This guy plugs!

Seriously though. Those damn boots on RJ-45 cables are the bane of my homelab. Sure they protect the needlessly fragile prong on the connector, but have you tried unplugging a single cable from a full switch? I have to leave a pair of pliers next to mine for that. To hell with that! I'll take SFP over RJ45 any day!

Special "Fuck You" to whoever invented micro-HDMI. Difficult to plug in, super easy to destroy. And for what? It's not that much smaller that full-size HDMI. I had to send in one (out of warranty) mirrorless camera for service because on that, and it was super expensive.
