plastic around the cable was fine.

We don’t have fuses like the good ol’ days (I’m not even sure you can buy even them?).
They’re just some sort of fancy switches. I don’t know the proper words for them.
I think that’s one of the things that got replaced ages ago in most houses, unless you’re unlucky enough to get one that “needs a bit of work”. At a guess it’s something that became mandatory in the 90’s ?
According to the paperwork this house was a former rental property the previous owners bought.

Rewiring is definitely something a licensed electrician would have to do. If I ever get solar panels then I’d have to let them replace the switch board (or whatever it’s called where the utilities enter the house and the meters are). It’s on my wish list, because I do like the idea of them. There’s no way there’s a good return on that investment from a pure financial perspective though.

Anyways … enough adulting.

I’m slowly getting ideas as to how to add bits to my gaming room. Some form of rubber/EVA foam tile is next. Technically it’s one of those things I should have done first, but that’s the problem of not having any ideas except the need for a big table.

I’ve also been looking at classic industrial outdoor lights that would fit the bunker/spaceship theme I am starting to envision (still not sure it’s going to be the final theme … but at least I’m starting to get actual ideas now 😉 ).
And the one thing I really want : ‘red alert’ lights of some kind.

(at least with smart bulbs there’s no actual need to change the bulb  😀 )
