It’s probably a proprietary connector made specifically for Yamaha, or Yamaha made it themselves. It’s loosely based on car connectors from what I can see, but I don’t think you’re gonna find much info about it.
I’d just go in “guns blazing” with this thing. If there is a replacement for it and it’s fairly cheap I mean. If not, I’d try and pry the silicon off with some of my DIY tools for these sorts of situations.

I wish to know how to open this socket to access the rubber/silicone seal inside, and to know that first I need to identify the name of this connector
What exactly do you mean by this, is the connector sealed?

Please send help, fascists don’t give up power easily.
Actually, most countries that could actually help are hoping to see you burn… because they’re your biggest contenders in world domination.

It didn’t used to be like that… but you had some horrible decisions made (or not paid attention to is more like it) over the years and this is the result.

Generally speaking, most people are just uneducated. Thus, that is fixable. And you can even get a lot out of mentally challenged people if you work with them a lot.

A better education will, at least partially, solve the problem… in the long run, of course… but the long run is like 20, 30 years from now. Things might get a lot worse by then and beyond fixing.
Things perpetuate and there is no fixing this. The real issue is capitalism and money. You can’t have an incentive to care about the people and how they are raised and educated if the only true incentive in this system is money. There is money in education, of course, but there is so much more from taking advantage of stupid people, regardless who does it (big tech, politicians, fast food chains…).

The education system in the US is screwed beyond oblivion, that’s why this is happening.
And it’s not just the US. I live in the Balkans and things are… well, very bad to be honest. We have the lowed average IQ in Europe.
The problem is, stupid people benefit both sides, left and right. They’re easy to control, as voters. No one wants voters which can think critically.
Democracy is flawed IMO. There is no fixing this. People do rule, but at what cost. There are alternatives, but, let’s face it, none of that will be implemented, at least not in our lifetimes.

It takes a pot of practice, but it is doable.

As I said, it’s not about learning Russian. There are tons of translation tools these days and time is of the essence (most of the time). No one has the time to learn how to hack these forums (unless you have an exploit tested and ready to go).

No, they were done with Nixie tubes by the end of the 70’s… well, most of them.
Jr. Highschool history teacher visited, said they employ old ladies in the Moscow subway to watch the escalators just because everyone needed a job.
That was one of the main problems with communism and socialism. Not enough incentive for education, so just make up jobs, no matter how stupid they are. We called those jobs “doorknob operators” in ex Yugoslavia. It was a shitty deal, but there was no incentive for a large portion of the population to actually learn something useful because even if you don’t have anything other than a 4th grade education, you still had to be part of the workforce, and instead of forcing people to actually get a degree (mind you the state was the only employer at that time, even though, at least in ex Yugoslavia, there was an option for venture capital and self-employment in the 80’s, but no one actually did it… or very few, and on a very small scale), they just went “the hell with it 🤦… just… do something”… which could have panned out in the long term, but no one could know.

It’s not about learning Russian… it’s about getting info without having to bother hacking into the thing… which is gonna take a lot more than having to copy/paste snippets into Google Translate.
