Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Yeah, it only matters with things like electric shavers (although those are all battery operated now... so it actually doesn't matter!), vacuum cleaners, etc. I know if you plug a 120v appliance into 230v it might kill it, but I guess if you plug a 230v appliance into 120v it just won't turn on or will run slower.
