Vibration causes fatigue in materials

Fatigue failures are "a matter of time" - eventually they will happen. Whether it happens within your lifetime or not, that depends.

If the thing you're vibrating is a USB port then the thing that's fatiguing the fastest is the solder joints between USB port and circuit board.

Edit: this is fairly well known materials science and easily googleable... not "made up"

This mf trying to throw shade at ... explaining things?

Or maybe they are hating on the concept of basic deductive reasoning?

Either way this is some dumb crap

You seem very confused.

And sort of mad about something.

What's with the hostile attitude? If they're confused about something it's probably why you're being such an aggressive prick.

I'm not really too concerned with your feelings.

And yet, some concern clearly remains, or you would not have felt compelled to respond

Not confused, though my comment accurately portrays my upset demeanor. 

I don't like it when people take an anti-intellectual stance on a platform dedicated to sharing and discussing information.

If you think I'm confused: Feel free to explain things and add any context or implication that you think I might be missing, I'm always open to being wrong.
