So someone wires up lights around a bush or tree and one side ending in a socket is powered correctly. But they fucked up and the line to connect to it is flipped; it isn’t a pronged plug but rather another socket.

So instead of rerunning that flipped line of lights, they go cut two extension cords to create The Naughty Plug and use it to run power from the powered socketed plug to the unpowered socketed plug, leaving an energized prong plug vibing somewhere at the end of the line ready to maim, murder, or incinerate someone.

I’ve seen a pronged socket for sale, but never seen them applied since I’ve never been in an RV.

That’s fine, electricity is weird! I stay away from naughty plug because if you do everything just right you’ll live another day, if you do anything wrong you’ll kill yourself or someone else. Saying no to naughty plug should be sufficient for you too ;)

In Murica, the kettle tripping a circuit breaker would knock out the fridge if the fridge was on that breaker circuit. Anything not on that circuit breaker is fine.

No isolation here just means that if the breaker doesn’t trip, the kettle’s circuit and fridge’s circuit are connected together in the circuit breaker box by copper bars.

If you disconnect the mains then the power will be backfed through one of the circuit breakers and back out to others. If the breaker you plugged naughty plug into is off, it’s isolated. Otherwise, it’ll power whatever circuit breakers are on on the breaker panel.

If you don’t disconnect from the mains you’ll kill a person working to fix the electrical lines for your neighborhood.

Yes, safe and automatic things exist to switch automatically - or even hook up a generator in a pinch manually but safely (no naughty plug needed).

Defo don’t backfeed your abode unless you’re gonna die due to some major emergency!

You can run something like a house off a generator with one if the main breaker is off; in an emergency and the operation reasonably well planned out (don’t overload wall lines you plugged into, etc.) it might be a net benefit. On the reg is asking for death cause there’s safe ways to do it that sane people would plan for on the reg

Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

Imgir has been jacked up with shit, esp on mobile can’t get to “just the image”, and sometimes won’t load due to ad blockers or VPNs; catbox seems to get back to “just image hosting”, and it’s cat themed so that’s just great

Litter box moe is a temporary one, if you wanted something a la firefox send also!

Upload to catbox.moe then paste the URL in your post, you can edit your post directly! The Blåhaj has been having image troubles lately :(

This one’s for the untied stats, get mald euros and the rest of those countries in the world you know who you are

It’s US pres Bush Jr declaring, with full assurances from all trusted intel sources, that he (a frog that looks cute) will NEVER be ballin.

The next panel shows that he is in fact ballin, as the frog is on the court, basketball in hand, ready to throw down. Bush Jr is shocked as an aide whispers in his ear that a second ball has swished the net; this occurs while he spreads propaganda for his education reform in a class of elementary students (no child left behind).

This is clearly not a direct analogy to WMDs in Iraq and definitively not related to 9/11
