Many of the reset buttons I still encounter doesn't require any extraordinary pressure. Some of them are a bit too recessed requiring a paperclip, but again, they're not harder to press.
- onionisafruit 2y agoGoing by memory, server reset buttons were bigger and more prominent 20 years ago. But maybe those were just the particular Dell servers I happened to work with the most. I don’t remember ever needing a paper clip to trigger one, but I don’t doubt there were some of that style. My mental image of this story has a pencil stub taped to the cd tray so the eraser hits the button, but rereading it today there is no mention of that. I wonder if I saw that somewhere else or just imagined it last time I read this.
