Do you have those weird two-prong things? My building is full of them
They're screws with a rounded head, and nothing on it but two little
pits.

Yes, PC power supplies tend to be full of them. The proper tool - a
tamperproof Torx bit - is pretty easy to obtain, actually. As are
tamperproof hex (like allen keys with a hole in the middle), tri-wing,
Torq, etc. I have the lot...
