So I regularly use CA glue at work (which is what some super glues are) and here’s what I do to most of the time not get it on my hands: use a sticky note or other scrap piece of paper, pour a bit more than you intend to use, use a toothpick to pull a small amount off, apply to the intended surfaces, hold surfaces together for a few minutes keeping hands away from where they’ve stuck together. If you can hold them together with one hand then you can use the toothpick to try to smooth out the seam from excess glue if you have any.
CA comes in different thicknesses, and in general they set faster the thinner the glue is, so how fast you’ll need to do this and how long you’ll need to hold the surfaces together can vary between seconds and a few minutes. I’ve never tried using acetone to break up CA glue, but I know you can get a bottle of debonding stuff from BSI, which we use to great effect. Outside of that, hot water and gentle picking at the hardened adhesive will help if you get your fingers stuck together.
The one time I’ve had an issue with our plugs (that would have been solved by something like the British plug design) was when I wasn’t paying attention to a remote antenna resting on top of a loose plug. Accidentally caused a short that melted that little bit of wire but nothing else happened. Just had a black spot on that outlet from then onward.
I have shocked myself on one once but just like with the other person replying that was as a child and felt more like a learning experience to not mess with outlets.
Found an article about the case, as of the time of the article being written neither of the two burglars had been charged with anything. Haven’t looked much more into it, though.
There was some stealth game I was trying out that did this. Before you start the game, it’s mandatory to set the brightness level so one logo is barely visible. I figure since it’s a stealth game I might as well just so I can see what areas are supposed to be light and what areas are supposed to be dark. Get into the game, soon find some guards and a nearby alcove in total darkness so naturally I dash over to hide before they notice me. The guards walk by and immediately see through the dark to spot me as if they had night vision goggles.
I stopped playing the game not long after because there were a lot of things about the game I really didn’t like, but those first few minutes were a tone setter for me. To this day I still wonder why the devs felt it was so important to make sure some things were dark enough to not be visible to the player if everything was going to be visible to the NPCs.
When I said “they owned bukkit” I didn’t mean they founded it, just that they were at the time of the controversy the owners of bukkit. Them taking it over isn’t mutually exclusive with owning it.
Also the controversy I was referring to was back in the peak of bukkit’s use, and they had owned it for some time before that peak. I’d wager the controversy was a much larger component of the fall of bukkit than them “plucking it apart” considering it was a product they owned and wholly benefited from it being the defacto standard at the time.
