minus-squareHawke@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up9·edit-23 days agoIt matters that you do the pairs right. CC-B-AA-B-DD. It doesn’t matter which color is which, except to make it easier to get the ends to match.
minus-squarebitfucker@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·3 days agoI thought that you mean the color doesn’t matter just that they match on the termination point, not as a pair. So you can have C with brown and green for example
