  • It looks like a fan header with a molex split. But more pictures would be needed to confirm 100% (A picture of where the cable connects to the motherboard in particular)

    I assume it is a fan with both a 4pin header and molex like https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1bjiuX5frK1RjSspbq6A4pFXaS/120mm-LED-Ultra-Silent-Computer-PC-Case-Fan-15-LEDs-12V-With-Rubber-Quiet-Molex-Connector.jpg You would only connect one of the ends and the other end would be left disconnected.

    My guess is that the molex end was never connected to anything and was simply tucked under the IO shield to the left or the VRM heat sink above. It was probably jostled loose during transport. You can take a look around for anything with the same size as the loose connector to see if something was plugged in there. The connector is shaped like the letter “D” where one side is flat and the other has slightly rounded corners so you can only plug it in one way. This cable is for power only so it would probably be something like a fan or a light.

    If I am correct then the cable can be left unplugged and you can tuck it somewhere to hide it or just leave it taped. It would also be unrelated to your headphone issue.



  • Games would go on sale for example 50% off and people would buy them. Then they would have a flash sale for 90% off. People who bought the game for 50% off then refunded and bought it at 90% off. This resulted in lots of refunds steam had to process. Since they couldn’t get rid of refunding games they got rid of flash sales.





  • To add context this isn’t a hypothetical situation. In New York Two cops Eddie Martins and Richard Hall raped an 18 year old woman they had arrested for marijuana possession. They detained a group of teens, and let all of them go except for the woman who they then handcuffed and raped in the back of their police van. They then dropped her off in another location. She went to a hospital where a rape kit found semen matching the DNA of detectives Eddie Martins and Richard Hall. Both officers claimed that they did have sex with her, but it was consensual. Because it wasn’t specifically illegal for police to have sex with someone they detained they were able to accept a plea deal for taking bribes and official misconduct where they got 5 years probation with no jail time. Because of this case New York unanimously passed a new law (SB S7708) making it so that a person “under arrest, detention or otherwise in actual custody” cannot consent to sex. In any other state that doesn’t have a similar law it is essentially legal (as in it is not specifically illegal) for police to rape someone they arrested.
