Not So Pro 3

Figure out the answer and I'll mail you a new bottle of Echo RedArmor.

Let’s see…

A. Give myself a brain aneurysm

B. Drive to Home Depot and buy a bottle of RA (which I was planning to do anyway)

After careful consideration I choose GFY

I promised you a picture of my dad’s slide rule

It’s hard to see but the case is covered front and back with formulas


Hard to believe the engineering that was done with these

You have matches on Grindr to tend to what are u waiting for lol

does she have the same beard as you ?

Son of a *b-wordin coyotes.
2 of them. I couldn't get a shot.

maybe you should have cleared some more lol

and probably better than the new ways of screwing the working man lol

Damn thing doesn’t work, it won’t turn on

I don’t seem to be able to find the opening to the battery case…

Good morning men.

Good morning men.

rainy day here too lol

You're not the boss of me.

The question is stupid, the amperage readings make no sense. How is a length of wire exactly twice as long not have exactly twice the resistance? Ohms law would dictate half the current should flow through the longer wire. Am I missing something? I get either .0755 or .0955 ohms per meter. I guess I am not engineer material.

I'm doing some homework and man, these are some very realistic scenarios in the questions...

Very realistic in that the boss lied and the equipment is not of good enough quality to use Ohms law to get the same extrapolated resistance for both lengths.

Same as I was looking at. Had to look at it again to make sure I didn't miss something.

?????? Wtf?

Must have got confused with the solar eclipse and gone back to bed. Super overcast here and we didn't get to see it.

I got a couple pics of the partial between clouds. The one we had in 2017 was impressive. This one, meh!

Not all wire resistance is equal per what ever length.
You can test each type individually.
Some alloys (especially now a days) are more resistant than others.
Twice the resistance?
I doubt that.
I used to build custom high end audio cables for a living (Analog IC's, Power Cables & Digital cables) .

Glad to put this day behind. I do not want to live long enough to be like that.

That's pretty dang cool. The handwritten equations on the case make it cooler. To be honest, I've never used one and have no idea how to use one.

I've been using a TI-84 since 7th grade and even though it sat in a drawer for about 8 years after I graduated high school, I picked it right back up and it was like riding a bike. I never forgot how to use it. I still keep it with me because I'm faster with it for simple calculations, but I'm becoming more and more accustomed to my much more modern TI-Nspire CXII. The Nspire is a lot better for really big calculations and also for graphing.

Maybe he was saying good morning to the members that are here from other parts of the world?
