Everyone know the drill, try, flip once, try again, flip again, and THEN work!

[@Arlentric]

3rd time is always the charm

[@PeterZaitcev]

And then you realize that's an HDMI port

[@ZT1ST]

Take 10.

[@megacharizardxgod5298]

​@Arlentric, have they ever tried rotating?

[@mathmusicandlooks]

This is proof that USBs are 4-dimensional. (Requiring three rotations of 180° before achieving the original position)

[@AmaroqStarwind]

*Upon closer inspection, you realize that is not a USB port… it is an HDMI.*

[@isaactelesco2141]

Nah, its a Hi def display port.

[@thomasnolastname8734]

And to add insult to injury The USB is fake

[@alexzero3736]

Rj 45

[@Theloudestquietkid]

It is technically 50/50 but it genuinely feels like 1 out of 100, getting it first try feels so good.

[@Arlentric]

I got it first time once and my computer blue-screened

[@verm0gen]

​@@Arlentricthat's so real wtf

[@andrewgreenwood9068]

USB drives are clearly fermions. As such they take 2 full rotations to go through all states

[@Benusr]

It's not 100% so it must be 50%

[@Theloudestquietkid]

@@Benusr hail yeah

[@Dragon_Muenster]

I never played DnD, but one time me and my group couldn’t open a door so we burned the entire town down to leave that building

[@monkeyboy4408]

I remember when a group of us couldn't figure out we needed to pull a door open so we tried grabbing one of our fellow players and use them as a battering ram. Lucky to say, we failed our strength checks for picking him up. His brain remained intact that day, though I cannot say the same for our intelligence 😅

[@Arlentric]

This perfectly summarizes the D&D experience

[@infernox1099]

A group I was in couldn't figure out that we needed to apply blood to a statue, and the way we solved it unintentionally was by the cleric stripping nude and hugging the statue and given how it was like half an hour on this one puzzle, the DM just said "fuck it, you graze yourself on the statue and you're bleeding now" so the now bleeding cleric who is hugging the statue would've "bled" on the statue opening the path

[@prophetzarquon1922]

"Wait, can you read Draconic?" 'Yes, why?' "It says PULL."

[@Arkinagoth]

This reminds me of my group's most recent session. We were locked in a room with a mirror and some cryptic text (dont remember what it said), and one by one, the torches in the room were going out. We were all freaking out trying to figure out what to do. We tried breaking the mirror, grabbing one of the torches off the wall, looking at our reflections, and so on. There was no puzzle. All we had to do was wait.

[@prophetzarquon1922]

When I was a kid, we played a dungeon where the crypt slammed shut behind us & when we got to the bottom, our torches went out. We couldn't relight them, & dispel didn't do anything, so we proceeded on what I think was a light spell from the cleric... We all asphyxiated.

[@mathmusicandlooks]

@@prophetzarquon1922I’ve had the same idea for a dungeon for my friends… do you think if I included some randomly dead giant spiders along with the extinguished torches that it would be enough to signal to a party of 30-year olds that the “air” isn’t safe?

[@Aaa-vp6ug]

@@mathmusicandlooksmaybe unnaturally pale plants? (Chlorine gas bleaches pigments.) Note: Though some plants may not turn out white, as Roses turn yellow. And Blue pigments are rare in nature, so basically 99% of blue plants that exist IRL would be unchanged. The oops all bone-white plants thing is spookier and clearer though.

[@AflacMan13]

Ahhh, a classic puzzle. Millions of variations, but the main details are always the same. :-)

[@prophetzarquon1922]

@@mathmusicandlooks I think you could put a canary in cage & have it die & they _still_ might not get it; dropping hints is like dropping feathers: Easy to miss.

[@Tnox-hn2em]

The P being capitalize scares me

[@revthekid7353]

It's the USB Superposition Conundrom. If you never look inside the USB it will never fit

[@iolair1973]

USB-A always goes the third way up you try it.

[@JohnySlama]

It's easy - the side WITHOUT the line in the middle is always the top

[@theanonymousgladiator776]

I like how the barbarian was just wanting to smash it

[@jizburg]

Go full office space on it.

[@ShalevWen]

The holes are always on the top, unless the plug is sideways

[@psygamez7727]

A yes, the quantum USB problem. The USB has an up position and a down position. Until the inside is observed, the USB will remain in a superposition of both up and down positions. You have to observe the inside of the USB to quantum lock the USB into one of the positions (up or down). Only then will the USB be able to quantum tunnel into the USB port.

[@screamoneo]

this is why i like that they (not so recently) invented a USB that plugs in correctly either direction

[@thetimebeforedawn]

Is is always the easy Puzzles that brings the Session to a halt

[@BlackRoseThornEtna]

Love the barbarian outfit

[@jasonkoyama6096]

Him in the barbarian outfit 🥵

[@Cosmic3333]

Idea: your an artificer but your entire backstory is based off Iron Man

[@TonklinFallen]

It's always the third side that works.

[@user-pu9yy8tq5t]

I did the equivalent of a dnd puzzle solve at an escape room lmao. We were a group of 2 and the puzzle mustve either been designed by tall people with long arms or for more than a group of 2. There was a medium broom closet sized room with buttons in the bottom right corner, the top right corner (z axis), and the top left (y axis). I had to move a robotic arm with the right and left top corner buttons, but hold onto the bottom right button to activate a magnet. The buttons on the outside of the room were the x axis controls. I controlled the top left corner buttons by kicking over my head and holding my leg up to press the buttons while holding the magnet button with my hand.

[@It-is-PhillipFrank]

Little did they know the USB port was actually on the other side and those ones were the DM's distraction ports 😮

[@qertgaming]

POV: how the bard solves it

[@lexonlexcrime]

need an npc to come up, nat 20, instantly plugs it in

[@ducking...]

Yeah USBs are humanitys first and only 4D object😂

[@zachariz1490]

Tip for usb keys : holes in the usb go up in most cases. If the plug is sideways, check which side has a bar. Insert hole side of usb key into side with bar. TLDR: THE RECTANGLE GOES INTO THE RECTANGLE HOLE

[@PufferPlug201]

I am putting this in my dnd campaign 😂

[@Bertranddeghaul]

puzzle solving... is just make some insanely wild but applicable to the situation at hand Sh!t up that will make the DM and the group laugh and for some reason 9 times out of ten it will work or atleast lead to the solution due to dm stealing your idea and running with it.

[@dorindagrandbois7847]

Ah, yes! The fourth dimension of USB ports!

[@TanusMorken]

I always say "usb sticks are quantum object". both sides are wrong unless you observe and decide which side is the right one, then it works fine

[@dalton6173]

I have one USB port that has a strip down the middle and an empty space on both sides of it so that it will accept no matter which way you put it very similar to a USBC. I won't lie it's my favorite USB port.

[@mostmagicpickle7135]

Interesting how the word “puzzle” in the title changed very briefly to be capitalized before disappearing

[@amansson2151]

Just take a drill to the USB until it fits. Works every time

[@mistahhbeangaming8127]

Ah, one of the types that is really hard to get in.

[@ferrumphoenix]

Is nobody talking about how as the caption was fading the “p” in puzzles turned from lowercase to uppercase?

[@Trueforger]

Are you wearing ALL the Burgschneider line? Awesome

[@AflacMan13]

And then you suddenly find one of those rare weird USB tips... that is universally double-sided; as in does not matter which way you put it in, it'll fit up or down. VERY rare to see one of those today though!

[@matthewhafner962]

USB-A obeys the rules of quantum rotations. You must rotate 720 degrees to get back to start.

[@user-ur2gt7je5c]

Smash it, doordash it lmao

[@horizonlune7392]

Thanks You've officially given me the worst (best?) idea for a door "puzzle" ever Long story short: USB port lock that requires a perfect roll (no higher/no lower than the DC) to open. Immune to all damage types

[@hirikoji2617]

well SOMEONE failed their slight of hand check

[@MegaMisch]

Yesterday, I tried putting one in, but it didn't work. So I pulled it back. I was about to flip it over, but I stopped myself, just put it back without flipping. It immediately slid in without issue. I felt like I had witnessed a glitch in the very systems of reality. 😂

[@BeatrixTomomizu]

There are always 3 ways to put a usb-stick into the computer!

[@owenjroberts]

USB ports are 4 dimensional objects, that the only explanation for how turning it 360 degrees makes it then fit.

[@Walker_96365]

USB Ports have require a DC 25 dexterity check to use

[@SorenPrime]

BT the info from one device to the next its easier and less chaotic

[@asheronwindspear552]

Cursed item: The contrary USB.

[@SheruMuko]

Wrong side of the computer.

[@Sphendrana]

1st Position: [X] 2nd Position: [X] 3rd Position: [X] 1st Position: [X] Protip: Make sure the slot is compatible with the plug first!

[@bendysans1473]

Look at the port pn the usb and the computer The white things need to be on opposite sides of each other that is only half of the puzzle The other half is seing what hole it goes in

[@MegaLordOfdestructio]

You stumbled uppon quantum usb drive. You dunno the orientation even if you try both sides until you look at it.

[@Minds_guy]

The hammer of destruction is made with the ingredients below The handle of elv's 10¹⁰⁰ year old mystikal power tree that was reforged till a legendary power was glowing upon it The head of the three king's of dwarves that took 78 melania's of power The grip of the dragon King's scales The core of a banished god's predecessor that is embedded into the center of the hammer

Come on let the barberians smash it

Bard: “ I can always SMASH it 😘”

As opposed to old-school D&D "puzzles" -- choose between 2-4 options with no way of distinguishing between them, die if you guess wrong.

Check the hole and where is the black thing inside the usb

[@dragontooth9729]

Why does the p in puzzle change into a capital P?

[@EnraEnerato]

Well USB A plugs are THE ONE AND ONLY 4 dimensional object in existense, so you turnign it over like 4 times is completely normal if statistics are taken into account.
