Yeah, 100%. It’s just that usually when something like this gets a large-ish negative reaction it’s because people associate it with furries or some other “taboo” fetish/lifestyle.
I also find that furry stuff gets way more hate than it deserves (which is none hate). I say boo to that! So long as stuff is consensual and nobody gets hurt (who doesn’t want to, lookin’ at you BDSM), then let people enjoy things.
Side note: It’s hilarious how for years people were cheering on Captain Kirk for banging green alien chicks, but cat ears and a tail is a no-go. Cross-species stuff is cool so long as they’re from another planet? What if it was planet Yiff? On the topic of aliens, do we even know if Superman has a human-like penis? Maybe Kryptonians bust onto egg clutches, who’s to say?
Anywho, people are silly and really like policing other people’s likes.

Eh, I say let the furries have their fun. Like, they’re going to do stuff like this anyway. Might as well sell it to them.

Context is a fickle mistress like that. I have deffo overlooked options because the surroundings were different.

I mean, I kinda did post an ad as an example, lol. But it was the most concise video I could find in like 30 seconds of looking! I am in no way shilling for whoever the company was. Any cold shrink brand will be more or less equivalent.
And you’re welcome! I do like being helpful in areas I know things about.

In this case they can pass the cost onto the customer. The higher restrictions will always result in higher costs, so they’re probably used to it.

Ok, thought so. Another option is gel splice covers. They’re a plastic box with waterproof goo in them to cover the connection. This is just one example, but there are plenty. Wago sells some specifically for their splice connectors. There are also some where you mix your own goo, but I’ve never seen or used them.

Wait… How are you splicing the wires? Crimped butt splices?

Maybe you can get your hands on cold shrink tubing? It’s a rubbery tube stretched over a plastic frame thingy. You pull the frame out and the rubber shrinks down. No heat needed.

When I first navigated to the community it said 0 posts, but when I refreshed they showed up. It still said 0, but I could see them. Leaving and coming back fixed it though. I don’t know if that’s on Lemmy’s side or the app I’m using (Boost).

I think if you find all the gnomes is when it gives you gold.
