minus-squarehavokdj@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 years agoWhat about getting hot for your Ethernet cable? Your nice, long, sexy Ethernet cable? With that wide bandwidth? That low latency? I’m getting wet just thinking about it. Let’s LAN party ;)
minus-squareatx_aquarian@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 years agoI always crimp my own, including using slide-on/slide-off hoods. That way I can back the hood off before plugging it into the port, which keeps it easy to disconnect, and I can slide it back on before pulling it through a tight spot.
