My Creative Inspire P7800 7.1 speakers has this issue that created a HUGE rats nest of wires for a workaround. The input for "center/sub" is bad and requires it to be half way unplugged to work. Well at some point it stopped working completly. The workaround was the split the cable, and have the center channel go to another set of cheap speakers. We'll it's time to redo the desk arrangement upstairs and I'm sick of it. We have a Logitech 5.1 system laying around and figured its time to just install it in its place. But wait... 7.1 > 5.1! Been doing alot of board related things lately and figured I might as well take a look at it. Damit.
wtf is this thing?! Is this normal? I mistakenly thought this was orange:TRS and grey TRRS but that is not the case. The reason I thought that was because it came with a cable for the sound card side that was arranged that way. Why? because the soundblaster card at the time was arranged that way. so stupid!
Anyways. This looks like it might be difficult to find a replacement.
I asked about this on stack https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/588212/identifying-and-replacing-stacking-trs-jack
Update:
I took off the shroud behind it and it says "TC F"
Update:
LOL! who cares! I forgot the whole problem was that the center channel was scratchy! Also some of the jacks dont quite work unless it is slightly out.
overhearing something... "oh the video quality is so bad! you should get an iphone!"

oops! deleted ubus instead of whatever i shouldve deleted
router froze then after a reboot the cfgs are all messed up. even said "(none)" on it's identifier and most of the overview page was missing
tried just restoring config but as I suspected, it doesn't install missing packages
figured maybe i can just start over now, gotta do the upgrade to DSA openwrt eventually. Not compatible for upgrade as I suspected, gotta do a full reinstall.
k np, do a factory reset, restore cfgs. ofc still missing packages, reinstall them. everything is online except, hey... I can't connect from outside?!
after beating my head against the desk for a while I find that the IP is correct, DNS did infact propagate outside and that it MUST be inside my network.
realized that the cfg i uploaded was before the VLAN upgrade... sigh
lesson learned. make another backup of configs after you finish your work/upgrade!
Totally forgot but I plan to log the big problem with MImoo's pc.
tldr; ATX power on the mobo is bad, disconnects.
update: turns out new mobo worked with some quick tugs on atx power, no issue. 2ish months later, it happens again! must be cable i guess.
update2: confirmed. it WAS the cable ): the mobo is already replaced but it did have a bad pwm fan header (DC control only). I can't test the ATX until I get another ryzen cpu to test it.
Talking about financial futures and etc. Then grandmother comes in talking about old family drama, not to trust certain aunts and uncles. Swindling and the such. Tbh some of these guys i already didn't have the most respect for anyways lol. But learning about how big family "empires" can fall from misplaced trust in a greedy son can open ones eyes about...frailty might be the word?
Was fun and all. Learned that I'm "trustworthy" but honestly its more like: "Huh? Just don't be an ass no? ._. ". Also that one of my aunts used to do day trading back before she moved to the US.
Not too much more I care to say but I told my grandmother. "Yup, there's always one in a family"
vanillajs plain js lol. But jquery is also originally intended as a polyfill! there are many cases where jquery is unnecessary but there might be just a little too much negativity about it.
For the most part though, in today's standard of updates and etc, it really shouldn't be a big deal to work with mostly vanilla js and worrying about dead browsers. stupid IE >:[
Sent in a PR to HTMLy to use alot less of the jqueryUI library. The only thing left is tag auto completion which is nice but gotta somehow get around that. At the very least, I was able to slim the lib down to just what is needed instead of the whole fat library.
