spent like 30 minutes outside before it started absolutely pouring, so back inside and more minecraft it is

In case you weren’t aware, here’s one of the many ways unregulated electronics bought online can be dangerous. A regulation Australian IEC cable must have 3x 0.75mm²+ double-insulated stranded copper conductors. This cable appears to meet that requirement at first glance — it’s marked that way on the outside, and cutting in, the PVC colours are wrong but otherwise appear okay.

But then, scrape some of the copper, and it suddenly turns silver. It’s CCA, or Copper-Clad Aluminium. A sneaky and cheap but worse conductor. The aluminium holds up much worse to corrosion and bending, and will crumble to powder inside the cables over time. Through this process it will increase its resistance, turning into a fire-starter. Very dangerous and invisible without destroying the cable to examine it. #safety #psa

loots of minecraft again today, tidied up the moss farm, built an xp farm in the End, bunch of beacon speedmining, got my diamond gear + basic enchants

used it to walk a friend through installing dehydrated for Letsencrypt certificates. It's INFINITELY nicer to use than certbot, which always breaks

@Juju just sitting in the grass in the park i've had my sandwiches snatched on multiple occassions :(( smh dogs

@galdrakinn pretty sure it's the latter yeah, although based on the phone you could also get scratches on the lens that make things slowly worse

all my toots are one big connect-the-dots to reveal my psyche

im shivering, not just because of the wind, but the ethereal opening to Eelke Kleijn's Cercle set
