It's fun watching all the zoomers make discoveries on old school shit that we have known for decades. It was a happy moment when I heard my kid upstairs had found out about the "TWANG" sound when you flick those springy doorstop things near the floor.

You can literally use a paperclip. Just stick it into the coax hole. This is not a joke, just do it. There is no trick. Just uncurl it then stick it in. Seriously go try it.

Edit: This wasn’t meant to be condescending by the way, I was just sharing a cool fact I learned. I’ve tried it myself.
