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.

I would imagine they're trying to ask what someone's ethnicity is but forgot the word for it.

"Fixed that for you" is what it's supposed to be!

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.

I just wish that's how the devs advertised it. The idea of a reverse city builder sounds good, but if they're going to sell an environmentalism themed puzzle game then just call it that.

I just played through the entirety of Storyteller in one sitting but had a riot of a time with a few friends. I think I spent about 2-3 hours finishing the campaign and will probably spend about another hour finishing the last of the achievements when I next take a crack at it.

Huh I always thought they were for pondering.

Hard mods are modifying the 3DS hardware, whereas soft mods are software. The difference is doing something like installing a chip into your 3DS (hard mod) or leaving it with the original hardware and only modifying the operating system to allow third party apps or modifications to the first party apps (soft mods)

I was intending to play through that soon, I'll have to keep that in mind before I do.
