A retro problem
(fedia.io)
Why is there an orange dot on the plug?
Pff. I'll be fine. I have a Hercules graphics card.
See? No twisty things.
I can still play games, right?

"That's when I realized the threads were stripped."
lol I came across a dvi cable plugged into a crappy old lcd the other day and this is exactly what happened
Kind of wish USB has securing screws sometimes ..the amount of times I've accidentally caught a cable and yanked one out (oo-er)
Depends on the device I imagine. Way back in the olden days I remember pulling my NES along with a handful of games down from the tv stand because I caught a controller walking by. When Xbox introduced the break away cords it was a Godsend in our clumsy house.

When I worked IT for a call center I had to deal with so many of these that I ended up only screwing one side. Still held firmly in place, less work.
i swear every time you think you tighten one of these evenly, they just end up like this!
