Our house had a phone outlet like that. I thought at the time that it was in an unlikely location (next to the French windows), but it never occurred to me that someone would install a fake one just so that they could pretend to have their telephone in a different place.

In Good Construction news: An update on that "Make Buildings Beautiful Again" Trump executive order written by some dude with a vendetta against modernism https://twitter.com/NPR/status/1397204067005444099 Shubow was apparently super mad about the US Embassy in London, which I agree is ugly af but gaudy neo-Classical poo poo is equally bad. WPA Moderne or die imo

The Dave posted:Crimping kits seem to be $20-$30 which might end up making sense. It's a pretty long run that goes into a ceiling run that I don't have access to so replacing it could be complicated. If you're gonna get tools and do this yourself, MAKE SURE to get the MODULAR or PASSTHROUGH connectors.   I can't stand the poo poo cheap ones; you have to pre-trim the wires all straight and keep them aligned as you stuff them in little clear tubes. loving sucks. The passthrough connectors at least let you get the wire through individually and the final product is very flush without a lot of finagling. The modular have a little wiring loom / adapter that locks into the plug, again ensuring the wires are actually positioned well.

This 100% makes life so easy. When I was a kid I was making cables without passthrough it sucked rear end. With passthrough I had no issues and and wires to my basement in like 20 mins Including time I spent pulling the cable.

US embassies are all a bit fort-like, so an actual moat seems kind of fitting. Besides, if they made it properly deep I'm sure it works.

After 1998 (when someone literally just drove carbombs up to the embassy buildings in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam) the US realized that a ton of their embassy locations were extremely public and it was essentially impossible to harden them against similar attacks, so they started moving them to new locations or rebuilding as much as possible with layered approaches and defenses so that any straight-forward assault would only reach an outer wall or gate and not the main buildings. This does make them frequently pretty ugly.

there are pottery glazes that do that, but it looks more like a metal treatment (giving the tubing/pipes)

See also "Chameleon Paint" https://www.paintwithpearl.com/shop-custom-paint/chameleon-paint/ https://www.urechem-paints.com/chameleon-car-paint-colors/ You can also get thermochromic paint, which changes color based on temperature. Nice to get a view of the ghostly rear end cheeks of whoever sat on a thermochromic toilet seat.

Could be a physical vapor deposition. Titanium is common. Makes for really gaudy guns.

It feels very moderate after... that, but have a Norwegian apartment: https://www.finn.no/realestate/homes/ad.html?finnkode=204377895 I do enjoy that they extended the look to their basement storage room.
