z-order error

I don’t get it (and I’ve read the books too).

Someone ziptied the ring to a 10 mm wrench socket. Wrench sockets have a reputation for inexplicably getting lost, never to be found again.

especially the 10mm one

[–] lurkinglizzard@lemmy.world 12 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

It is a 10mm socket. If you own one, you have not been using it, because they always get lost. It is a running gag.

Oh, weird. I use one regularly to disconnect the car battery and I’ve never lost any. News to me it’s a meme. Thank you for enlightening me!

Basically nobody is physically carrying it. And that is a laptop locking mechanism. So nobody could have taken it from the carrier. It’s just silly I guess.

That’s a 10mm socket wrench head on a zip-tie.

That is not Kensington lock…

You are right haha! I didn’t even notice that. Now it’s even funnier! Thanks for that. C

I’m still confused, how is this a laptop locking mechanism?

[–] Album@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 hours ago

Weird I was looking for my 10mm yesterday and couldn't find it :(

So are they invisible or is only the zpzie invisible?
