alt Hacker NewsI worked in an IT department at one time and encountered USB-A plugs forced into Ethernet ports.
It seems so unlikely that I’ve just searched it to see if it’s possible, but am getting no hits.

no, they definitely fit. They're just awkwardly exactly the right size that while you're trying to plug things in punched over under the desk and crawling around and feeling around the backside; it just yeah.
My laptop has one of these ethernet ports that half close when not in use. It doesn't work anymore because someone mistook it for the USB port that's right next to it when distractingly plugging their keyboard in.
