Prove what? That I posted the card? No need to. it's on the forum for posterity.

Ok.

Looks like you forgot again to ask your "fire chief" and "mayor" buddies for the info.
How many water towers/tanks in the area of the Cali fires? A NUMBER

I answered this. We were only talking about the one where the fire started.

What reservoir/s, and how much water in them? 2-3 WORDS, 2-3 NUMBERS

I answered this earlier. No need for me to go over it again.

What pump capacity per tank/tower? A NUMBER

I answered this earlier. No need for me to go over it again.

How many 2" hoses running when the pressure dropped? A NUMBER

Gone over this also. You really need to work on your memory.

So, three words, and 6 numbers could answer all my questions.

Your memory sucks and 123456.

And don't say "THE tower is gravity fed". We both know there is far more than one tower/tank, and we both know they are not gravity fed.
Just answer those questions that should be simple for an "insider" like you to answer.

Again, I answered this earlier.

That's a nice setup.

If I say yes, then I would be lying. If I say no, then I would be falsely confirming your claim by default.

You are asking if I'm denying that my own post is correct?
No, I am not denying that my own post is correct.

No, to "bridge" does NOT mean "to connect two wires together directly".
As a noun, a "bridge" is a an additional thing that in some way connects two or more OTHER things.
As a verb, to "bridge" is "make a bridge over something".

Touching two wires together, twisting two wires together, wire-nutting two wires together, properly using a butt connector to put two wires together, is NOT "bridging" wires.

We are talking car audio. Car audio is electronics. In electronics, a "bridge" is a

The blue wire is a "bridge" between the black and the red/orange.
The black and blue wires are spliced. There is no "bridge".
The blue and red/orange wires are spliced. There is no "bridge".
This is Electronics 101, just like bones having nerves in them is Anatomy 101.

I am telling you, as well as other people are telling you it indeed does.

As a verb, to "bridge" is "make a bridge over something".

You skip all the other meanings that show it does. You do not need a 3rd "thing". Part of the literature states that bringing the TWO things together BRIDGES the gap allowing electrons to flow from one to the other.

Touching two wires together, twisting two wires together, wire-nutting two wires together, properly using a butt connector to put two wires together, is NOT "bridging" wires.

You do not need the BLUE wire to bridge the other two together.

Ahhh the argument that a splice is not a bridge? It is you know.

 

[RobGMN Premium Member]

Yes, on this forum.

OMG!!! WOOD, SCREWS!!!! A MIDDLE FINGER!!!!!

Yep. just wood screws. no swappable port made of cut, glued, screwed, and radiused MDF.
So you're not only stymied by words, but by pictures, too?

I know.

No schematic was needed. They are visible on the exterior of the amp.

Ohhh, you think a TERMINAL BLOCK is an output leg of an amplifier? Got it.
How many watts does this terminal block output?

Prove ****** Identity isn't a human construct.

Of course it's a human construct. But it's not singular to humans. Homosexuality (and not just homosexual activity) occurs in the animal world.

I said person, not population.

No, you said population. The article someone shared specifically mentioned a percentage of the population being vaccinated. You felt the need to chime in and explain to us that it is not possible, and then asked how you vaccinate PART of a person. As if 99.4% of the population being vaccinated meant that each individual IN that population had only been 99.4% vaccinated.

Wasn't my claim.

Biden is evil and wishes death on all of humanity.

Ohhhh you may want to read my original post on that. Yes, do that and get back to me.

Once again, your bad memory bites you in the ***.

"The female orgasm is to stimulate ovulation"
-ThxOne
Did you learn that in the same class where you learned bones do not have nerves in them?

He should have been hung, drawn and quartered for such a violation of law.

The law that was made specifically to allow the President to sell oil from the SPR?
Jail him for doin what the law says he should do?
interesting. Sounds Communist.

The one where Trump voiced is opinion on how his wife looks? For some reason the left said his opinion was a lie. That was one specific entry that I shared with you.

It wasn't his opinion. He was stating what everyone else's opinion is.
I suppose if he stated that you like the taste of dog crap, it would be true, since he said it?

That does not sound remotely close to anything I would claim.

There's that bad memory at work, AGAIN.
"I pointed out to you that in order for your numbers to work YOU are assuming that all of these people WANT to move to higher paying jobs. That assumption is literally the only way your little "gotcha" moment works. So, show me the proof that all of the people used in your math want to move to higher paying jobs or **** off troll."
Fighting against the idea that people want to make more money.

Maybe YOU want to be stuck in your dead end job and make the same pay for life, but that doesn't mean it's NORMAL.

The list is growing Rob.

The list that doesn't exist, because you have no proof to offer.
As usual.


And here we are,
STILL waiting for your proof that bones do not have nerves in them.
STILL waiting for you to prove with a schematic that your mono Rockford amp has multiple outputs.
STILL waiting for you to prove your claim that ****** identity is determined by the *** organs.
STILL waiting for you to prove your claim that vaccinating more than 99% but less than 100% of a population is not possible.
STILL waiting for you to prove your claim that Trump built 571 MILES of wall.
STILL waiting for you to prove your claim that Biden caused insulin prices to go up.
STILL waiting for you to prove your claim that orgasm exists to stimulate ovulation in women.
STILL waiting for your claim that Biden broke the law when he sold oil from the SPR.
STILL waiting for you to prove that just ONE lie in the database of Trump lies was actually a truth.
STILL waiting for you to prove your claim that people in low wage jobs do not want to get paid more than they already do.
STILL waiting for you to prove your claims that I have lied, made stuff up, altered quotes or screenshots of your words.

 

[RobGMN Premium Member]

Ok.

I answered this. We were only talking about the one where the fire started.

"the one"? Which one is that?
What water tower/tank is located in Topanga State Park?
What is it's capacity? How and from where does it get filled?

I answered this earlier. No need for me to go over it again.

A link would have been shorter and quicker to post than typing this lie.

Funny how you and ThxOne constantly claim you "already did that" but are never able to provide a link, or quote, or screenshot, or even a recap of what you "did".
Kindred spirits, huh?

 

[Old_Slapper]

Feel free to screenshot the posts and prove this claim. Do it in your response so there is no confusion ever again whether you did it or not.

Again, it's not my job to keep trying to fix your ignorance.

Yes, nonsense. I ask you to share your complaints, and then you claim my request is somehow a denial.
That makes NO sense. NONSENSE.

Ok. What has Biden, Pelosi, or Newsom done that is unethical, in your eyes?

You denied Trump considered Epstein best buddy. But now you say Trump broke off the friendship.
Complete 180 of your original stance.
You're not trying.

Epstein said they were best buds. Trump never said they were best buds. At best, he said Epstein was a great guy, until he found out he was a pimp.

Funny how both you and ThxOne consider two wires touching each other to be "bridged", even though you both offer a definition of "bridge" as a third item that connects the first two in some way.

Two wires touching each other are not "bridged".

Damn it Rob!

I just gave you the definition of "internally bridged" and you forgot already? Let me explain this to your simple mind, again, and prove to you that you have a simple mind that is not capable of rational and basic thinking. You have two electrical components that need to be attached. One needs to send a signal to the other. If you connect a wire between the two, then that wire is now considered to be a bridge.
Do you understand that now? What, do you think a bridge can only be made out of asphalt, wood, or concrete? OH my GOSH!!! This just proves how ignorant you are. You want proof that your ignorant? Well, here it is.

They must be very bright. She probably got the smart gene that you didn't.

Again, this proves your ignorance. I'm sure you think you got me on that, but I will admit they are quite bright, for an infant and toddler. And just like you, they don't understand basic engineering. My sister did get the smart genes I didn't. She's smart enough to know not to engage in conversation with you because she knows it's like talking to her kids.

Damn, it IS liek you and ThxOne share a common pea-sized brain.
Show me a schematic of ANY mono amplifier circuit that shows multiple outputs off of the amplifier.
ONE.
I've asked Thx this a dozen times, but he simply can't do it.
I'll wait for yours.

Here you go. It's the T1500-1bd. it's a mono block. Notice the two sets of speaker outputs? I'll even add the link. We might have pea-sized brains, but obviously they hold a lot more information than yours.

I shared direct links to the pdf of the court opinion on this, at least 7 times.
If you refused to look then, why would I expect you to look now.
Trump is a ******. Court decision says so.
******, RACIST, FELON, ****** PREDATOR, LIAR.
Report me to the authorities. Let him sue me. He will lose. And he will lose the counter suit.

Nope, no court has ever ruled him as a ******, and if he is a racist, then why was he dating black women and hanging out at parties thrown by black people? Or do you not know the definition of a racist?

Why am I beholden to your demands for me to say something bad about anyone?
Are you going to fire me if I don't post 5 bullet points?

Do you want proof that you are a very weak-minded person? Here it is. My point was made. You are incapable of thinking on your own. You're a liberal puppet that will believe whatever the liberals tell you. Just exactly how they want you to be.

Better would be actually providing some factual data that I have asked you for at least 5-6 times, so we could further discuss the Cali fires.
I ask you because you claimed to be the "inside man" with a direct line to the mayor and the fire chief of your city.

You claim to have answered the questions multiple times, yet still cannot answer them now.
Wouldn't it be the same answers as before?
All the text above is more than if you had answered all of the questions.
How many towers? A NUMBER
What reservoir/s, and how much water in them? 2-3 WORDS, 2-3 NUMBERS
What pump capacity per tank/tower? A NUMBER
How many 2" hoses running when the pressure dropped? A NUMBER

So, three words, and 6 numbers could answer all my questions. Instead you post the diatribe above.

And tell me this: The Santa Ana tower is 153 feet tall. It is filled from local water sources. How does the water jump 153 feet or more up into the tank without a pump?

If gravity is enough to fill it, why have a tower/tank in the first place?

Oooooh.... You are so predictable. I already proved your claims to wrong, and you just keep throwing the same crap out there.

Try better, bro. You're boring the crowd.

Dunno. Never really looked into it.
Maybe it was unethical for Biden to take the "nice guy" stance against Trump, instead of stomping him tot he curb. Had he stomped him, maybe we wouldn't be in this mess now.

I Googled "pelosi unethical actions" and every link that came up was one person or another saying "her unethical behavior" with no examples. Give me an example and I'll tell you if I agree that it's unethical.

Epstein said they were best buds. Trump never said they were best buds. At best, he said Epstein was a great guy, until he found out he was a pimp.

I provided the quote of what Trump said about Epstein. Did you think it was faked back in 2002 just to make Trump look bad when it was found out Esptein was garbage?
“I’ve known Jeff [Epstein] for 15 years. Terrific guy,” Trump told New York magazine in 2002. “He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.”

Damn it Rob!

Do you understand that now? What, do you think a bridge can only be made out of asphalt, wood, or concrete? OH my GOSH!!! This just proves how ignorant you are. You want proof that your ignorant? Well, here it is.

Why would they bridge the inputs when they can just tie the traces directly to each other on the board?
If you want to connect two speaker wires to one terminal on your amp, do you make a little jumper wire across them, and then tap another wire onto that jumper, then connect it to the terminal?

That would be idiotic.

Why do you think a someone designing a mono amp would be dumb enough to put two RCA jacks on, put a bridge wire across the leads, then attach that wire to another one before connecting to the board?
Do you think they would do the same thing, but with traces ON the board?
F no. That would be shitty circuit design.

And they certainly would NEVER do it on a bridgable multichannel amp, or it would operate in mono across all channels.
You should know better.

Again, this proves your ignorance. I'm sure you think you got me on that, but I will admit they are quite bright, for an infant and toddler. And just like you, they don't understand basic engineering. My sister did get the smart genes I didn't. She's smart enough to know not to engage in conversation with you because she knows it's like talking to her kids.

Read above. Your claim that the inputs are bridged on ANY amplifier shows your knowledge of circuit design.

You mean the amp with the INFRASONIC filter switch, and a terminal strip for speaker connections?
If I connect four of these to those terminals four , how many outputs will my amp have?
Twenty. Right?
A TWENTY output mono amp. That means I'll have 30 THOUSAND watts! Awesome!

Nope, no court has ever ruled him as a ******, and if he is a racist, then why was he dating black women and hanging out at parties thrown by black people? Or do you not know the definition of a racist?

That "proves" that I am a weak-minded person? So if I say "Old_Slapper is a drunk who beats his wife and kids", then I have made my point and "proved" that you are a piece of redneck trash?
That's actually how it works? Just make my point and it is fact? Cool!

Oooooh.... You are so predictable. I already proved your claims to wrong, and you just keep throwing the same crap out there.

You don;t have the capability to prove your OWN claims are ANYTHING, much less that mine are wronmg.
****, your biggest "proof" was to "repeat" what your "fire chief" friend told you, and claim that you have the mayor's ear as an "insider".
That was somehow supposed to "prove" that Newsom was at fault for the drop in water pressure and volume during the fires.

Is your office by the mayor actually a janitorial closet? All of the stuff you claim to be around in your job is the same as what a janitor would encounter.
Nothing wrong with the job at all. But now of the janitors I know would ever pretend they are power players.

Try better, bro. You're boring the crowd.

ThxOne sure enjoys it. He can't stay away for a minute!

 

[RobGMN Premium Member]

He does that so he can flip the script. He still can't admit that a wire can be considered to be a bridge.

Wrong. I gave a PICTURE EXAMPLE of a wire acting as a bridge.
You can't even lie well enough to get away with it.

The blue wire is the bridge.
It bridges the red and black wires.
The black and blue are sliced. The red and blue are spliced.

Tell me: WHY would a circuit designer bridge the input terminals of a mono amp, instead of just splicing them together, or blending the traces on the board?
