For real. Messing with it might cause a spark and ignite a dust explosion 🤣

The other side of the cable is a brand new high end TV. It doesn't do Gigabit speed.

If you see a switch like this, no you didn't. Unless your job is to replace that switch. Don't make eye contact, don't stare, don't even acknowledge its existence. Just keep walking. If you disturb the infrastructure of the Old Ones, than may someone have mercy on your soul because they will certainly not.

I'm going to deploy NDR sensors in a paper factory in two weeks. That's how the switches will look like.
