That was probably fixable, either by sourcing a dead laptop or just replacing the connector with a different one. Asus are cunts for this too, they use a non standard 4.0 x 1.35mm power connector, which while it is easy to get, is still a dick move

Laptops under 100W should have USB-C as the only power connector, there is no excuse for barrel connectors anymore.

it predates USB-C, which is relevant if the law goes back 10 years
and USB was a fucked up standard too, nobody asked for twenty different physical connector formats. Especially when ethernet has gone from 10Mbs to 10Gbs including adding POE over much the same connector
