The WordWeb one is probably not an error. The vendor just wants people to be more eco-friendly and is willing to offer use of their software in exchange.

Make them eco friendly by forcing them to use planes even more? Clue: I live in the UK, I don't make four flights a year.

If that was the intention then a "not more than" would have been a better idea.

It looks like it's referring to the number of ports on the switch - 5, 8, 16, or 24 ports. No idea what specific terminology they used to get that phrase though.

Yeah. Somewhat similar stuff exists in the Hacktivismo license. It claims that no Hactivismo licensed program can be used to violate human rights. Though the intent is noble, I doubt it does any good. Anyone ready to violate human rights isn't actually a prime candidate to respect software licensing terms.

When you fly, you contribute to the demand that, in turn, causes planes to fly.

Apparently it involves the Chinese character 干 (gan), which can mean 'to dry' or 'to do', with the latter interpretation having the same slang meaning of sexual intercourse in Chinese as it does in English.

No, seriously, not joking! Here's Language Log's post on the matter.

Still not entirely sure how that applies to fast Ethernet sentence, though. Maybe there was 'doing' somewhere else in the sentence and it somehow got transplanted in the midst of translation?

Does flying 120 to 300 people at a time emit more CO2 than those 120 to 300 people driving to their destination?

For trans-oceanic flights, does flying across the Atlantic or Pacific ocean emit more CO2 per person than taking a ship? (And not everyone has the time luxury of being able to cruise across an ocean.)

Or are we supposed to stay on the continent that we were born on, and never travel across an ocean?

Speaking of which, many researchers claim that a "well-to-wheels" (or "field-to-wheels") analysis shows that hydrogen and ethanol take more energy in their entire production, transportation, and storage lifetimes than they provide in available energy, while hydrocarbons provide more than they take.

Strange.

Physics and environment characteristic

Input volage : 7.5 V D C/ 1A (5/8 give cones change the machine)
100-240VAC, 50/60HZ an inside places the power
supply(16/24 gives cones change the machine)
Power consumes : Biggest 30 tile
Saving temperature : -30 C ~ 60 C
Environment temperature : 5% ~ 95% have no coagulation

4. Product detailed list
Packing box that open the commutation machine, an inside include the following contents:
- a set 5/8/16/24 give cones change the machine
- a the direct current power supply goes together with the machine (be applicable to 5/8 give cones change the machine)
- an AC power cable (be applicable to 16/24 give cones change the machine)
- for glue the sex rubber mat (be applicable to 16/24 give cones change the machine)
- two Ls type a with screw (be applicable to 16/24 give cones change the machine
- this customer manual
- if above these products and enclosures have thrown to lose or damage, please provide goods the company to contact.

Thank you to use the Ethernet network product
1. Produce summary
It introduced four kinds of model numbers in this manual of 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet Switch. Concrete model number is as follows:
- 5 the fast ether in 10/100M in hull in plastic nets of ports switch the machine
- 8 the fast ether in 10/100M in hull in iron nets of ports switch the machine
- 16 the fast ether in 10/100M nets of ports switch the machine
- 24 the fast ether in 10/100M nets of ports switch the machine

The main characteristic in machine in four commutations distinguishes to near to, installing method similar

The Ethernet switch tool read 5/8/16/24 10/100Mbps from accomodative a works port, is an ideal product to establish small scaled, medium-sized or large network need, establish for the demand exclusively the fleetness link to take with the breadth ministrant work set but design, match the IEEE802.3. Ethernet completely with the IEEE802.3u Fast Ethernet standard. Can provide the ability of the fast ether in 10/100Mbps net, take each work a breadth for or table's top computer offering whole network taking breadth, dissolves conjunction serves hour the bottleneck, and can is current the cusotmer 10/100Mbps a work a function for linking a fast ether lord fucking net ascending, suiting different demand in various situations, can to a large extent increasing network with dependable.

I'm guessing;

"Give cones change the machine"

Has something to do with screws or another fastener, because they're given as common measurements of inches (which, btw, is evil compared to metric).

Maybe something like torsion screws (is that a real thing, I'm not sure?), where 'give' means how much stress they can handle, and I guess they're cone-shaped (really long pointy cones with almost no curvature lengthwise). And when do you use them? - when you need to 'change the machine' (take it apart, swear at it, try to put the give cones back, then realize its a piece of junk, smash it with a hammer, and buy a real product).

Yes, and there is a real nice statement about "hair switch" that I am not sure I want to try.

Switch the machine contents the development super-speed saving machine, adopt to save to turn hair work mode.
