This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

You know, I never thought about this. Presumably it would just blow a fuse or trip the breaker, right?

The cable itself won't do any damage. The problem is, what ppl do with it. Also if you plug it into a socket, you get a super secure not dangerous at all live wire to touch on the other side.
