USB-C stick 4tw.
Until you find out that a usbc plug fits inside a usba port and you can mix them up when reaching around your computer. (Don't test this on anything that is powered on, I did it on accident once and it triggered my motherboards usb overcurrent failsafe)
Did this (on purpose) to HP laptops we were discarding at work (Elitebook G5) and you kill the entire USB-A part of the machine.
10/10 would HP again
Likely RIP PCH (or the CPU, if those 2 are combined). That's kinda weird they don't install protection on USB ports 'cause those are like 20 cents (at least judging by those in my t480). On the other hand, HP's gonna HP
HP = Horrible Product
My cheap AM3 motherboard doesn't cares about USB short circuts. So it's HP's deliberate miscalculation.
same with my old lenovo laptop, i shorted both the power and data pins literally hundreds of times while tinkering with microcontrollers, and all it did is disable the ports until a reboot
It is definitely HP just being HP.
Other non HP machines we have are just fine if you short the USB-A ports
