v for frequency?

I'd prefer to use the Chinese stuff.

Show us a nuclear power station you've designed. Show us a operating system you've written. Not everyone does everything.

P.S. "Show us some electronics you've designed" flows so much better. Why did you add the extra word "that"?

I have written three RTOS's and a few compilers and several language interpreters and one math package, but I don't have the code handy.

But I'm an electronic design engineer, and this is S.E.D.

P.S. Don't be prissy.

No, its uk.d-i-y. Learn to look at headers :-)

The rubbish is actually cross-posted to three groups - sci.electronics.design, alt.home.repair and uk.d-i-y

John Larkin is presumably posting to sci.electronics.design where he has been the most voluminous poster for some twenty years.

I had to go to eternal september to check this. Google groups won't show the complete original post.

Aren't you talking about myoo? The symbol you'd use for micro.

Lauren Boebert? The youngest president in my lifetime was JFK who got his brain cells splattered all over a limousine. Clinton and Obama weren't recommendations for 40-somethings.

Teddy Roosevelt was younger but Czolgosz had provided a sudden job opening for the office.

They can spend it making immigrants comfy.

Far easier to grow it yourself, which is and always has been legal in the UK.

Why the f*ck would you pay tax on booze? I brew my own for less than a tenth of the price.

AFAIK there's nothing to make you paranoid, there's just sleepy and happy, in various proportions. I used to use it to get to sleep, but the effect stopped rather suddenly after 3 hours, so I had to get up and smoke it again, it got tedious.

The only way I can sleep is to have a 26 hour day. It makes life interesting, I get to see the sunrise at 4am etc. Makes it harder when I need to meet someone who sleeps "normal" hours.

I got that when buying a parrot with a credit card. I was phoned and asked to give my password to prove who I was. I asked them to prove who they were and they couldn't. I said how about I phone you back on the number on the back of my card, and they thought that was an amazing idea!

If the word for green is blue, what is the word for blue?

I've no idea what they mean. If the amber is on/flashing, it means halfway between red and green in one direction or the other. Does it really matter? If you want to be cautious, then stop, you're either stopping early, or waiting until it's really green. If you drive like me, amber means accelerate.

Apparently going through amber is illegal in the UK unless you can prove you couldn't have stopped in time.

That's extra to do. Out of the corner of my eye, I can see the colour, but I'd have to look at it to see the position, looking away from what I'm already looking at ahead of me. Therefore colour blind drivers are a danger on the road and should lose their licenses.

Where my parents live they all put 20 signs on the wheelybins. That just irritates me and makes me go 50 instead of 40.

When they're all up, drive round and shoot them all off people's rooves.

The UK isn't childish enough to do Halloween. They used to do some guy Fawkes, but not many shops sold fireworks and I think government legislation about what age you can buy them at f***ed that up. I've bought a lot of booze and fireworks for kids in my life.

We've had that channel for years on Sky TV in the UK.

At one time I made dandelion wine and hard cider. The problem was keeping up with the demand. I would have had to make a lot of booze and that would have cut into my drinking time.

Somehow those things make me think "Keep your f****ng slow kids out of the road."
