That's not a submarine. I'm pretty sure this is one of the margarita machines I saw in a thread in GBS years ago.

I would argue urban sprawl is an issue and that the whole management of shared building infrastructure is the biggest hurdle to overcome it.

Depressed wires to a thing hanging out a thing wires i guess having to fin a way for those wires past all the other older forgotten about wires what the wires are for what the gently caress are the wires for? Still pulling off pipes and remotely getting them hett up confirming their ok but ultimately getting stuck in and ignoring context at least I have a comfort blanket mum and dad are off. abandoning their late twenties probably son again had to reverse it out to avoid getting stuck anyway all this lot looks done Getting there with this stuff. Its a very slow and arduous process. Lol. I've hosed up a couple of bits and gone like how am I gonna get that back in place and soldered up? Just keep in mind how ever bad you gently caress up, you can go backwards and fix it. It justs costs money, time and possibly like i dunno embarrassment if your dad is still there and telling you he said so. getting there oh dear.... yeah this is wrong look at that skinny little neck on it. Its another bit I got second hand from bristol. Yeah that probably isnt a 28mm part. lol gotta replace it. Only 70quid and another days wait. blood on the walls

I agree there. I needed 3 runs of ethernet so I just bought pre-made ones of more than enough length and threw the excess behind a storage rack. The calculus on this might change if you're using 2 km of ethernet cable though. I'm pretty sure this build has more wire in one conduit than I have in my entire house.

You just need to get a sharp enough punch down tool. It's easy as poo poo if your tool is sharp, miserable if it's not. Idk if you can get Klein tools over there but that's what I'd recommend, I just bought one of their replacement blades bc the $9.99 punch down tool I got as a set wouldn't cut for crap. Blade alone cost more than that but worth it. Terminating wires always sucks though, just buy premade for anything you're plugging into a jack.

I once had to terminate cables manually since the conduit wasn't large enough to accommodate a jack (the cable itself barely fit). I had a poo poo tool and it literally took me half a day just to add jacks on both sides of one cable. Horrendous. Also I'm incompetent.

It’s probably cheating but the thru hole RJ45 plugs make it a lot more bearable. Relatively.

EZ RJ-45 connectors actually make Ethernet termination tolerable. Ask me how I know. https://www.platinumtools.com/products/connectors/ez-rj45-connectors/ez-rj45-cat6-connectors-100010c/

That looks like it would take me longer, waste more cable, and be more expensive considering the website doesn't even give a price. I've terminated enough ethernet cables at this point that it doesn't really take me much time at all to go fiddling with something like this.

But also, aren't you only supposed to DIY terminate ethernet in keystones or FTPs? The only reason I've seen for terminating in RJ45 is some kind of POE situation where the bigass FTP literally doesn't fit or I guess you really quickly need a temporary patch cable. Other than that you should be buying manufactured patch cables.
