Use dummy cell in two cell battery charger?

I remember them being preferred in Psion Organiser XP's and LZ's for field use (those are still used on aircraft carriers, I read somewhere), because rechargeables (NiCd, NiMH) didn't give enough warning when power was about to fail. I put a Duracell alkaline in one of mine a while back, and I'd do that again considering how well it's done so far. I'd have recharged the NiMH 5 to 8 times since that time if I'd still been using it. I read somewhere that Duracells can also be recharged safely. If that's true I really ought to look into that. :)

The only thing more retarded than some dope filtering his news (filter your news and filter your mind), is a dope that announces his filter file edits.

You are one such dope...

You are a BIG DOPE, at that.

Bwuhahahahahaha!

I rarely do but I make exceptions. *plonk*

You do realize that "ChairmanOfTheBored" is another Dimbulb sock puppet. He has drawers of 'em. He has to. They're never washed.

Yes. I don't know which one though, it doesn't matter much. I can tell a troll quickly enough so I never need to track their history. The only thing that puzzles me is: is he as Crass as he thinks he is? >:) And if he doesn't recognise that reference, then he definitely is.

Which one? Are there left and tight socks? There is only one Dimbulb.

Dimmie is as stupid as we all know he is (I.e. MassivelyWrong).

You're an idiot.

I have to agree. The smoke is the same, and he doesn't seem to recognise my comment in my most recent post. I think Shakespeare had it well: Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.

What took you so long? :)

Indeed. Typical behavior for an attention-seeking moron.

Well, first post I answered of his, I already knew. But what if the OP didn't? :) Even trolls might give good advice, or detract from other useful stuff. I figured it was worth drawing the fire for a bit so that the question wasn't in doubt. That way no-one's going to be following garbage advice. There's a difference between the odd error or omission, and the misleading garbage I answered, and sometimes I doubt myself enough to need to make sure I'm not making things worse. It's annoying to have to hear shit from a troll to keep me on my toes, but it's wise to use whatever is available, and it revealed a dead end to avoid.

His first post didn't look like a troll, it was something that could easily be swallowed for real by anyone who didn't know enough to challenge it. So I challenged it. Shit happens..... >:)

Then it Morphs!

Jees, Dimbulb, How many socks do you wear in a day?

When he runs out of socks, he just switches to fishnet stockings and garter belts.

A two year could perform better than you.

New Morph, but you're still an idiot.

Trying to air out all your dirty socks, Dimbulb?

Eureka! I have it! It fits now, the dummy cell in the subject of this thread. Exactly what we need to illuminate a dimbulb. >:)
