Quality is enough for the 2-wire speaker cables. The coax cable makes sense from the photo, but I personally I wouldn’t have figured it out from the photo. Seems like a lot of ideas from the left-most cable but it seems too broad to be ethernet and especially telephone. It seems like power, based on width, but difficult to tell without a more direct view of the cross-section and preferably cutting some of the outer-most shelling to see the inner colors

EDIT: I disagree that the black and red colored frayed cables are power. Those colors are most frequently speaker colors AND frayed from being forced into speaker ports. You don’t normally get fraying like that from power-related components (e.g. power outlets).

Vaguely remember seeing this album around. Thanks for the hidden track reminder - any recollection of the song name?

There are cases other than what you mentioned where the carrier refuses to unlock. During 2021, AT&T forced a phase out of 3G and provided allowed customers to get a free upgrade phone in the process. As a prepay customer, I took the phone but jumped ship to a different carrier. I tried to get them to unlock the phone earlier this year and they refused. There was no contract/lease involved, but they didn’t like that I didn’t remain a customer with them for (I think it was) 180 days after that.
