Why be such an asshole?

Well, aussies do that as well...

--- You never asked for a discussion, you asked for opinions, and since you claim that Usenet is "rife" with assholes, you should have considered that before making your first post.

--- Good thing, too, otherwise that would have been shoved back down your throat as well.

--- I've already got one; pricking the balloons of pretentious know-nothings like you.

Try their Dark Chocolates.

Being the horse\'s ass that he is, that\'s no surprise. :-)

Their Special Dark tastes like sand to me. Do they have anything else that's better?

Dove tastes greasy to me.

Better is subjective. I like the bitterish grittiness of it.

Well, I'm not that surprised:

Damn, I miss that soap.

Speaking of emergencies, just got a small (85g) Lindt 70% cocoa 'Excllence' dark choco at the convenience store. Not world-class, but not bad for convenience-store chocolate, and inexpensive.

Like I will ever give a damn about pathological assholes like you.

Aussies aren't offensive. Offensive is mostly an American thing.

Stupidity is mostly an american thing. Try to chat with an american about math, and all he can think about are his balls, no matter what. Try to chat with a russian about math and you get an hour of top quality discussion. Try to talk about the appearance of something that does have a 50 ohm output impedance at most frequencies and does push 400 mA into a short, and all you get is assholes trying to use ohms law as an excuse to abuse anyone, regardless that there was never a single fact to go on, and the abuse was certainly never called for.

Hockey, for example, is a perfectly good sport on its own, but Americans make it into something that requires violence to be a sport.

Being an asshole is an American thing. I'm sure by now 99% of the world is in agreement on that, I'm certainly convinced.

All you folks are good for is playing some infantile hazing game.

F*ck yourselves.

Awww... Poor baby\'s a sore loser...

OK that's it. I'm launching a complaint to SS2S. This jackass has made a death threat??

And he's a "team lead" for the SS2S project???

Yikes.

--- You're obviously as ignorant with the assessment of psychological disorders as you are with the understanding of electronic design.

For example, even though experts in the field have given you the advice you asked for, you refuse to accept it and, instead, have become abusive because what you heard wasn't what you wanted to hear.

That, in and of itself, smacks of pathology.

As far as your design skills go, I submit that they're lacking because, even though you wanted to design a square-wave generator (which seems to have been your goal) you couldn't get there over the range you wanted and opted, instead, to let the chips fall where they might as far as waveform VS frequency was concerned.

Another thing is that on your front panel, the legend: "50 OHMS" is clearly visible over the BNC connector, and yet you freely admit that that output exhibits anything _but_ a constant output impedance.

I suggest that a proper course of action for you to follow at this point would be to slink back to your den with your tail between your legs, lick your wounds, and wait for them to heal before you go venture outside again.

There's a thin guy inside me, struggling to get out. I sedate him with chocolate.

Castigation can be a good thing. Some of the mindless abuse that's currently going on, however.......

Ken

Now that's truly scary.
