     @nixCraft if it makes you feel any better one of my sysadmins asked me the other day about “a monitor cable” that doesn’t fit any of the old monitors.

     It was a serial cable.

     @nixCraft Real question is if people in the replies are calling it IDE or PATA.

     @nixCraft A Raspberry Pi GPIO cable.
     At least the jumper is set right to make it easy.

     @nixCraft I have what this person needs.

     I would bet half of Mastodon has with his person needs.

     IDE isn't that old. Remember MFM?

     It's only last year I retired my PC and with IDE drives in it.

     Play a haunting song to mourn the loss of a great legacy. They'll come for you too, SATA. Soon.

     @nixCraft I'm getting old. I stared at it for a long time and thought, I don't get it. It looks like a standard IDE cable to me.

     The right one… but if you find the plug you can simply pour the data in a glass…
