I have been reading and participating in sci.electronics.* for over 10 years.
The hierarchy is now pretty much reduced to a stream of idiots and/or information leeches from google posting
Hi
Fix my problems for me
Thanks
with a few replies from the handful of mugs which are the only ones left here to read any of the posts.
See you guys, last one out turn off the lights.
Who the hell is "nospam"?

It's a public forum... can't be helped. Why not just ignore posts you don't like?

It was meant as an example of a typical google posting.

Or better yet, politely send him a detailed schematic of something that can't possibly work.

I'm told that any reasonably complex schematic with a simple short between input and output -- circuitously such that it's not immediately obvious -- works well...
Yep. I like that. Complex schematic with carefully crafted flaws ;-)

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
Also, all resistors in non-standard values make things fun... 8-)

Shorts rail-to-rail are pretty good too ;-)

Maybe someone who can't stand juvenile ignorant narcissists? I have seen the same complaints on the EDN and ElecDesign message boards. They are also full of the same foreign broken English moron crap demanding someone send them schematic sets, manufacturing drawings etc...like that punk-ass hotmail ( Singa-poor) vermin anant the 72-LED clock asks "...if so do you have any pictures, and or a parts list for me."

I remember those.
A customer sent me a populated PCB with which to test his chip.
I fired it up only to discover that -VEE was shorted to ground.
With my nose in it as I probed around with a DVM... KABOOM ;-)

Wots his problem and why does he want us to fix it for him?
Ken
Just make sure the transistors are degraded in normal usage... Seems like many of the circuits one finds on the web work this way anyway, so perhaps somebody out there has already started doing this... ;)

He was not in a hurry, "hurry" being one human concept he had failed to grok at all. He was sensitively aware of the key importance of correct timing in all acts but with the Martian approach: correct timing was accomplished by waiting. He had noticed, of course, that his human brothers lacked his own fine discrimination of time and often were forced to wait a little faster than a Martian would but he did not hold their innocent awkwardness against them; he simply learned to wait faster himself to cover their lack.
A few tantalums turned backwards should do the trick...

Nah, can be fixed with a trimmer. Now capacitors, that's something else.

No it's not.

Switch the + and - connections on the schematic and listen to them complain about exploding ICs. ;-)

We had a radio go through 48 hour burn in with some tantalums reversed and they didn't fail till the unit got to final test. Others have died as soon as the power was applied.

Wanna bet money this guy will be back in
2 months or so? Heeehe!Slick
Usually all it takes is a few seconds at best. They even catch fire quite often.
