Yeah it is an office full of boomer r tards. I wonder how had this thing would fry a NIC if it got plugged in... Think I will make a dummy plug that has no connection to plug in so that doesn't happen.
I'd be surprised if it did but I suppose it's possible. I'm pretty sure I must have crossed all those wires before installing a plug on some rj45 that was still plugged in cuz lazy.
edit meant cat 5 but you know what I meant
Yeah it would most likely be ok. Most Nics have opto-iso diode protection, the thumb drive on the other hand might take a wallop.
You sound much more knowledgeable than me at any rate. It would probably be a clever delivery device for one of these https://usbkill.com/
I'd imagine it would just take longer to build up a charge.
