Joule Thief 101

[Magluvin]

Even if you don't follow the news, this one was really really hard to miss.  That's a deficiency.  The other deficiency is not denouncing what motorcycle dude did.

You were the aggressor and I shut you up and shut you down.  Then you had a moment of soul searching about your character and about over unity itself.  You realized that it was consuming you and you had nothing to show for it for years of work.  For all practical intents and purposes you disappeared.

And here you are defending Brad when I am arguing things with Brad like, "No, you do not measure the top speed of a car on a hill."  And you are a car guy for Christ's sake!

Turn off the bad boy Magluvin and just go back to being civil again.  But I will never forget that one full year of insane vicious harassment from you and the fact that you never apologized for it.

"Even if you don't follow the news, this one was really really hard to miss.  That's a deficiency.  The other deficiency is not denouncing what motorcycle dude did."

A deficiency?  Are you saying that I am deficient in knowledge because I find more important news more worthy of my time? Im not interested in the guy in the pic and Im not going to waste my time on that, you can if you like . So Im not in a position to make any comments on the guy based on what you say about him. It was up to you to prove your statement and it seems you wish to talk about it more than just proving what you said. So your story is deficient on proof so far.

'You were the aggressor and I shut you up and shut you down.  Then you had a moment of soul searching about your character and about over unity itself.  You realized that it was consuming you and you had nothing to show for it for years of work.  For all practical intents and purposes you disappeared."

Anyone can click on your name Milehigh, then click on 'Show posts' and do the same for me and compare.  I win, you loose. Simple   Maybe you can remember that we were both on moderation at the same time. So your no sweetheart my friend.  I suppose only I deserved the punishment and you were framed. What ever.

"Turn off the bad boy Magluvin and just go back to being civil again.  But I will never forget that one full year of insane vicious harassment from you and the fact that you never apologized for it."

Bad boy?  And you are a good boy? ?  Just always sooo nicy nice. Barf bag please.  You just dont want anyone calling you out on your hypocrisy. You cant function without it.  Playing the victim card

Well thas easy to prove MH. All you have to do is find posts where i posted profanities such as you have used--and had to apologies for
Can you back up your accusations ?.

Again-can you back up your claims?

Seem to remember a member on this thread acting in the same way not so long ago,to the point where other members of this forum that dont even post on this thread,had to tell you to calm down a bit,as children read these forums.

Well thats the pot calling the kettle black.

Who is motorcycle dude

"Seem to remember a member on this thread acting in the same way not so long ago,to the point where other members of this forum that dont even post on this thread,had to tell you to calm down a bit,as children read these forums."

Lol. He screams I was disgusting. Bet he cant find anything that I wrote that compares to what he writes. 

It was disgusting to him because I was able to use his own words against him and he couldnt take it. Thats a fact.


"Well thats the pot calling the kettle black."

Exactly.

"Who is motorcycle dude"

Who cares? I dont think you dont want to be in that club that supposedly does.

Magluvin:

You damn well know it's true.  People can sense that's it's true.  Many people were witness to it.  It was a shameful episode in your life and when you make light of it here you are just bluffing and you are just shaming yourself some more.  We both know the truth.

I have talked tough to Brad.  I don't know why Brad can't seem to understand basic things that we should all take for granted.  Take the example of determining the resonant frequency of a wine glass.  First, he insisted that he had to have specifics, and there was no other possible way to answer the question.  So are we supposed to believe that Brad can't understand what a conceptual question is or how to answer it?  So then I told him to create his own specific parameters and answer the question.  He clammed up and said nothing.  Then I answered the questions and he went on a tirade saying repeatedly that the answers were wrong.  Then I rebutted that and then he clammed up and said nothing.  That can be taxing, believe me, and the arguments can get heated.

Why don't you take up the issue of determining a car's top speed and argue with him that it has to be done on a flat surface and not a sloped surface?  Go ahead, what is stopping you?

Believe me, if you are going to stand your ground and argue common sense against nonsense, it's going to get heated.  And just the fact that you sit there with your own mouth clammed shut says a lot.  You are fully aware that for every one of the "main battles" if the arguments were set on a mainstream science forum Brad would be sliced to pieces.  And I am pretty sure for most of them you agree with me.

And ultimately I am trying to help Brad.  Why should he just do his thing in an artificial world that is fake, only to arrive at a rude awakening in the real world one day?  Why can't we argue things out with some kind of normal frame of reference, a commonly understood general understanding?

And that artificial world extends beyond Brad.  Look at the ridiculous nit-picking over the way the wine glass resonated.  Has it really stopped or are there still micro-movements in the glass?  If you stood up in your grade 11 Physics class and tried to challenge the teacher that the glass did not _really_ stop moving, how do you think that would come across?  The other students would look at you like you were nuts or just being a pain in the ass and disrupting the class.

Let me put it this way to you:  If the group scrutinized and nit-picked Brad the way I have been scrutinized and nit-picked, then Brad would be totally out of it, he would be a basket case.

A ridiculously permissive environment for Brad only ends up hurting Brad.  You know, the knowledge base around here that advances like a slow moving glacier, and half or perhaps more than half the time the glacier is melting.

I am really here for the next Wayne Travis or John Rohner or Naima Faegin.  Note that two out of three of them are under investigation by the FBI.  In the mean time, I came here in this thread to say, "What the hell do you mean by a 'resonant Joule Thief,' the Joule Thief is a pulse circuit and it does not resonate."

And it would appear after the initial buzz the "resonant Joule Thief" is going nowhere, there is nothing.  Smoky2's big talk was all smoke and mirrors.  A "resonant Joule Thief" doesn't even make sense and it would garner laughs and snickers on a real electronics forum.

The "resonant Joule Thief" evolved into a discussion about resonance and then a wine glass.  Brad puffed out his chest and we all know where that one went.  I don't even know why I am debating a little transformer with a wobbling magnet with him, it's not even supposed to be on this thread.

For all the grief and crap that has taken place, a wise person will realize that I got into heated debates with Brad to bring common sense and truth to the table.  The wine glass example did that.  I am sorry that Brad went haywire, but if you forget about this forum and the crazy bias towards Brad and against me, and look at what really was taking place in the discussions, I was trying to help Brad by standing my ground.  If you are just an enabler and just basking in the alternative reality around here and think that I am a bad guy then you are just hurting Brad.

And if you really want to split hairs, the first person to use nasty words like "stupid" or whatever was Brad.  I make it a policy to never to be the first to start anything like that.  And I am human and I can only tolerate so much nonsense from Brad, and from others.  I figure that the majority of you know that this is an "alternate reality" and if the same debate took place between myself and Brad on a "normal" forum, the results would be totally different.  Most of you would probably take off right away and disappear from a "normal" electronics forum.

So I said something to Brad that was "bad" and Grumage objected to it and it has been milked several times.  But what did Brad do to elicit that response from me?  I can't remember offhand, but it must have been something pretty outrageous, or something really bad that he said for the thirtieth time.  Don't pretend that Brad is an innocent angel.  His behavoiur has been outrageous, all stemming from me deciding to give him the straight goods and stand my ground.

I am really waiting for the next Wayne Travis deal to show up.  You know, people that steal millions of dollars from gullible people?  That's what I am interested in.  I tried, but ultimately I couldn't care less if I haven't changed Brad by one iota.

Here Magluvin, it's wake-up time for you.

http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2016/apr/13/jimmy-savile-clunk-click-safety-ads-ejected-national-archives

Note it's from just four days ago.

<<<
The "clunk click for every trip" public information films presented by Jimmy Savile have been removed from the National Archives as official bodies seek to erase from history records of Britain's most notorious child abuser.

Savile made 20 clips in the 1970s warning of the dangers of driving without seatbelts. The "clunk click" films, which were repeatedly broadcast in the 1970s, were seen as playing a key role in reducing road deaths before seatbelts were made compulsory in 1983.

One of the adverts featured in a collection of public information films issued by the National Archive in 2006. But a spokeswoman has admitted that the film was quietly removed from the National Archive's website in 2014 after the extent of Savile's child abuse became clear.

She said: "It was on our website as part of a selection of public information films that we curated there to mark the 60th anniversary of the Central Office of Information. We took it down in July 2014. We just felt with the current climate it wasn't the best choice and it was perhaps ethically wrong to highlight it. So we removed it from the selection.

"We didn't say anything about it at the time."

Savile's once ubiquitous public information films, which also include a series of adverts promoting train travel for British Rail, are available online. But they are absent from the British Film Institute's online archive.

How would you like it if Johan_1955 compared you to Charles Manson, or to Marilyn Manson?

Johan_1955 did a sick twisted thing and he should come here and make a public apology to everyone on this forum.

Well there ya go. Ya proved it.  Im satisfied with that.

So maybe we can just all chill.  I mean you say you have helped a lot of people. But helping generally isnt just making people figure things out on their own and calling it help.

Like in school, if they ran the classes like this, very little learning of a lot of things wont get accomplished. Gees. If ya have the answer, spit it and test at the end of the week to see if it sank in.

If someone asks for my help, I help. I dont put them through the figure it out yourself game with some hints or guide them on an easter egg hunt.  We are getting no where fast.

Im goin home. Tired.
