Who screwed in vga carefully every time? Without the screws vga was worse.

You can get HDMI with a lock tab . I hate that too. Nothing worse than trying to reach behind a wall mount to squeeze the lock tab.

I did. Because something in me just won’t let something not be secured properly if a mechanism for it exists.

Sometimes you want it to disconnect instead of pull everything down with it if something gets caught on a wire.

Like a cat

I hear you, I just can’t do it. Though all the slack is zip-tied away, albeit messily.

Oh no. Run those cables sloppy free like a 90s cyberpunk rat’s nest.

It’s like magic. I swear, sometimes it gets in places the instant it’s able to. Meowphy’s Law.

Agreed. What mad man didn’t at least think “I’ll screw them in just a bit so it doesn’t fall out” and then just continue screwing it in all the way because of course you might as well finish.

Only time I didn’t screw it in was when I was using a monitor temporarily or something. Something I knew I’d just unplug later that day.

Did people really just plug in VGA to their computer and then leave in unscrewed for months at a time? That shit would fall out if I bumped into my desk too hard.
