The joke explains its failure as a geometric design flaw, confusing a USB connector’s intended shape with an isosceles triangle. It is a humorous reaction to impractical design or something that looks almost right but fundamentally fails. EN: A white USB connector with a triangular, three-sided metal plug lies on a tabletop.
