Ah, #SwirlDB, the Swiss Army knife of #databases 🤹‍♂️—except none of the tools actually work together unless you summon the arcane dark magic of "adapters." 🔮 It's like legos for #developers who hate fun, making sure to remind you that everything is an adapter, even the tears of those who dare to use it. 💧

So, I thought I had it all figured out and ordered a bunch of adapters for my headphone setup… only to realize I got it wrong 😅 I assumed the female side was the tip and the male was where you plug in.
Turns out, the male is the tip of the adapter, and the female is where you plug the headphones to change the size. Instead of getting '3.5mm female to 6.5mm male', I ended up with '3.5mm male to 6.5mm female'. Well… who knows, maybe it’ll be useful if I want to connect my phone to one of my amps. Lesson learned: I now need to order the correct set.

so I have a rotary phone that I bought off of eBay. However, it has a very strange connector. At first I thought it was some strange coax variation. It's threaded, bigger on the bottom if you're holding it so the end is up. I sent ChatGPT a picture of it and it said it was a 505A bell connector, used up till the late 70s. Do y'all know where I can find a suitable adapter for such a thing that converts it into RJ11? For the life of me, I cannot seem to find one. I searched round 4-prong to RJ11 as well as 505A to RJ11 adapter, as it also listed that as one of it's names as well.

I need a #ProBono #attorney to sue #Amazon for #damages. They sold me a #faucet from a #ThirdPartySeller and #guaranteed that these were the right #parts with all the right #adapters and that everything would fit. But nothing fit, and now there's #WaterDamage in my #bathroom, with water pouring down my #diningroom #ceiling. This is going to cost a lot to #repair, and I need to sue #Amazon for at least #2MillionDollars.

#Serious #inquiry, #please #help.
