That's a Lenovo E480. There are two other USB-A and a USB-C and HDMI on the other side, plus you can't see behind the dongles but there's an ethernet port on the laptop as well.

I only have two complaints with what I'm looking at. One is there's probably not enough power for whatever you have connected to all of those USB things. And two, there's not enough support for the port that you're plugging this into to resist the weight of all of the dongles, which could damage the motherboard.

Depends. Modern keyboards, mice and controllers use just a few milliamps and the laptop must be able to supply 500 mA. However, just about anything that charges will use the whole 500 mA or even try to negotiate more. There are even non-compliant devices like heating pads that draw 2 A without asking.

It's plugged into the USB port not the motherboard.

The USB port is attached to the motherboard.

And the leg bone connected to the knee bone.

There is a generic leg bone?

[–] Ziglin@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

Yup totally it probably just means femur, tibia, or fibula.

Ohh! Now I get why my knees hurt when I stomp my feet!

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

No that’s because you’re old.

[–] ulterno@programming.dev 1 points 4 weeks ago

But then shouldn't it just be my foot that hurts?
What does it have to do with my knee?
It is yet to take an arrow.

Not always. Some laptops use a daughterboard for ports on one side. It might be connected over USB 3.0 and contain one or more USB ports, a SD reader and even audio jack.

What do you think will break first with enough downward force? The port, or the motherboard solder joints holding the weight?

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 7 points 4 weeks ago

No this is a schooner.

I hope you're remembered like Ken M. I always find these funny, even when, or perhaps especially when, they don't land well in the thread.
