@penguin42 your standard LED strip like you can get from amazon or just about anywhere else, comes as a self adhesive tape with LEDs along it, costs about a tenner for 5 metres then you just need a 40W 12v power supply

no, wait, I was wrong, it's 300 of them, 60 per metre

600x 5050 SMD LEDs are quite bright

@natalie@masto.ninja H

and on the nth day, sam put a shitload of LED lights in their dad's new shed, and you could see bloody everything

@LoveyDoveyArcticWolf@otherkin.club oh wait, yeah, there was that Tugs spin-off

All is explained, they got dragged there on a barge or sommat by the tugs

@LoveyDoveyArcticWolf@otherkin.club I'd like them to explain how the hell they managed to get a bunch of trains to australia

@noelle @maple maple is the very bestest

I propose #mapleMonday

a day of the week on which we all love and appreciate @maple a little louder than we usually do

@maple and thank you for doing all the complicated sysadminy things!

virtually no british person can remember the words to the national anthem

we can all, however, remember the entirety of Mr. Brightside by The Killers

I'm not entirely sure what that says about us

@djsundog you are, in fact, your own ass

is "can this be used to deliver weed" the logistics equivalent of the tech world's "can this be used to view porn"?

I installed some electric sockets today and didn't even get shocked!

I'm getting okay at this practical stuff

"NSFW" isn't the best thing to use as a content warning as it's overly broad, being a little more specific is good

Unless you're tooting stuff that would get you in trouble with the Health and Safety Executive, then NSFW covers it nicely
