That’s an effect on your ability to work, not the computers. The computer still doesn’t care.
Is cable management actually bad for computers? If it make the wires 10% longer to accommodate the aesthetic shapes we like, then that’s 10% more time it takes for the 1s and 0s to reach their destination. I guess what I’m saying is my lack of cable management is actually a productivity hack
Cables out of place can limit air flow and make things warmer, causing more failures. It is easier to snag a cable by mistake when doing other things. It is also easier to grab the wrong cable when in a hurry.
There are levels to cable management, and the Borg manage cables poorly.
The Borg don’t have that problem. Every drone knows everything the hive knows and the hive never forgets. Therefore every drone knows which cable to replace, should the need arise.
It’s nice having a bionic eye that is directly connected to an Enterprise Content Management system which has schematics and engineering diagrams for:
-
Aforementioned cables, terminal blocks, pigtails and splices, homerun cables, and associated electrical and instrumentation loop diagrams
-
Piping and Instrumentation diagrams for all ship systems, including revision level document management
-
Plan and structural drawings of each Cube, with calculations
-
Environmental/equipment qualification documentation
-
Certificates of Compliance from Hive manufacturers, tracing materials back to their original source. These would also need to confirm to Hive QA programs and traceable Hive-wide standards, where applicable.
-
Indexed and catalogued maintenance work orders
-
Legacy documentation from previous species who were assimilated
-
Indexing and cataloguing newly encountered species’ technology and uploading it to the database
Also the eye would be Augmented Reality so the drone can tell exactly what it is just by looking at it.
You make it sound as the hive is the perfect engineering job you’ll ever have
Ah so they’re running in RAID 1 then. That’s a lot of data to transfer if they’re all constantly updating, definitely recommend upgrading to fiber-optic.
Or trust me I have. Imagine if you will a house from the 1930s with the internet cable running from the opposite side of the house as the router. However the wire is deliberately put through as many rooms as possible on the way to the router and super glued into place as though it’s fine to trip on a wire 5 times to get to a room.
