While this thing has become basically commonplace in desktop machines, I could see how this feature would be rare in a laptop. A battery-powered device that, if left configured for wake on lan, would never actually be fully shut down and always have some amount of power draw to keep the bus and network adapter powered. From a design standpoint, considering people who would actually want to use this feature, a laptop just is not a good fit. Of course considerations could be made, but the fact it’s a gaming laptop and not a business laptop like a ThinkPad… I just don’t see it being something the manufacturer would consider being worthwhile.

There is no physical link light at all
Like i can see your laptop itself doesnt have a link light at the ethernet port, but your hard-wired router doesnt have lights on the switch at all?
A new flipper?
The badly photoshopped gif of someone paying with it is funny

A switch without link/act lights?! 
Got a link to the product? I believe you I’ve just never seen that before and now I’m curious. Seems like a tech support nightmare. @Eriequiet

After a week of searching I finally found a shop that works with UV ink… heading now to get some accoutrements to my little friends

I say switch, but I really mean an integrated switch of a consumer TP-Link router. Not that hard of a stretch to find many of these types of devices without link lights.
Thank you! I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. Let’s see how it heals over and looks next month
Can I use that image in our Instagram?

The second Skin is on it so it’s going to look a little gnarly until I swap it out. It’ll scab like a normal tattoo but when it’s healed it shouldn’t look like anything without uv.
The ink is Mom’s Nuclear Invisible Fallout. Zero phosphorus.
Other hand is just as gnarly

That makes me want a digital circuit board pattern like @coma 's scarification, but as a sleeve on one arm. Damn cool.
Cost vs regular ink?

shop minimum since it only took like 30m. or roughly 2 episodes of Bluey.
Having got many tattoos before i have to add, UV ink is very very thin. It looked like he was tattooing with milk water. i was kind of shocked by how thin it was and he had to go over the area a few times. both of the tattoos are 3/4" so knowing that it took 30 minutes should tell you the time it would take to do a larger piece. Also it will only last about 2 years. I consulted with a friend that was an old raver who got a huge side piece done, hers lasted a whopping 4 years but its all but faded now.
Do with that info as you wish, just consider it like a long temporary tattoo
