@onfy oh, Schuko is pre-war, that makes sense

@onfy like, it's a classic "trick" to screw a blown fuse back in with a bit of tinfoil around it

@onfy pretty sure the joke is that people do that all the time even though it's unsafe

@onfy it's interesting that post-war Germany didn't come up with sth like that but instead made the most overengineered plug possible… or it's newer, I don't care to look it up rn :D

@onfy no I get that they only have them because they needed to save copper post-war, but for extension cords it'd make sense

have I ever posted about how I'm mad about Tom Scott's "the British plug is the best" video because Schuko is so much better

@onfy honestly the british way of putting fuses in plugs sounds pretty sensible at some point

@onfy I should get myself a drive, actually, for now I'm just handing friends discs and microSDs

@onfy and then I throw it at handbrake

@onfy makemkv for the win
