I've seen Jeff Liebermann's responses to questions of how manufacturers' lie about specs, where he has personally doublechecked things like claimed wattage on radios. But what's amazing is that a pair of $300 Panasonic 20W paper-cone one-way speakers sells at Toyota, when these $30 Blaupunkt 450W (claimed) speakers are clearly better made. The magnets alone weight a ton compared to the flyweight Panasonics - although I don't think there is a spec on magnet heft. (What does the magnet heft mean, in terms of specs, when the difference is striking between two speakers?) Also the paper of the $300 Panasonic cone is brittle and subject to sun degradation, while the $30 Blaupunkt was presumably more sunlight resistant rubber & foam. But to your point on wattage, the head unit remained which likely was not capable of outputting more than 20 watts RMS anyway - so there's no chance that the $30 Blaupunkt speakers will be carrying more than that. One question I have is why don't they make speaker holes standard for standard-sized speakers? The other question is about that magnet. If there were two same-sized speakers, one with a huge magnet and another with a puny magnet, what does that mean in terms of likely performance spec differences? |

Since you follow me around, an octogenarian, and an ugly one at that, from group to group, like a little puppy, just like you did, Snit, when you made a fool of yourself in the Android newsgroups, one needs to wonder what you masturbate to. That you stalk me, Snit, is enough for us to wonder about your masturbation fantasies, not mine. |

If you can improve on this question, let us know: *Q: How would you download this video to watch offline on an iOS device?* https://youtu.be/Ve-kcKxbXx4 You bring up a good point, which is that the iOS tablet is the hardest type of tablet to get to work in the real world with other operating systems. I have an android tablet, where it's so easy to download any movie *directly* to the tablet, that it's not funny. Almost nobody knows this trick, but all you need to do, on Android tablets, is install the F-Droid (don't use the Google Play app which is a knock off with ads!) free ad-free YouTube Red clone named "New Pipe". That app is so wonderful that you'll never use YouTube ever again, since it's YouTube on steroids, without any ads ever, and where it can download any video or audio. So I didn't mention Android because it's just too easy. I don't have a Windows tablet, so I was showing folks how to do it on iOS since iOS is always a thousand times harder than Android is due to its walled garden nature (as everyone is already aware). BTW, Linux and Windows plays so nicely together that it was also a no brainer. Linux, for example, reads beautifully the entire Windows file system (well, except for the tricky stuff Windows just added in the February Win10 where they secretly modified the NTFS, e.g., the wuaueng.dll file as one example). Given that Windows does Youtube downloads beautifully, and that Linux sees the entire Windows disk, and that Linux plays far nicer with an iOS device than does Windows sans the iTunes abomination, that's why I used the system that I used. (Because it's the best of all worlds.) http://i.cubeupload.com/6MxqLo.jpg So, while on Android I would have just searched, viewed, played, stripped audio, and downloaded video using the same NewPipe app, the iOS device necessitated a multi-step but still trivially simple process of... 1. On Windows, I downloaded the video using the extremely powerful and super flexible command-line youtubedl.exe app. 2. Booting to Linux, I already had the results (since Linux sees Windows perfectly), and then connected the iPad, and since Linux sees iPads better than does Windows, I slid the file over into the VLC space on the iPad to play it there. If you know of a *better* way to do those two tasks, assuming the constraint of only open-source freeware, then let us all know as we'd all benefit from the technical expertise. If you can improve on this question, let us know: *Q: How would you download this video to watch offline on an iOS device?* https://youtu.be/Ve-kcKxbXx4 |

Then why do you puppy-dog follow me around the net, just like you did as Snit, like a slavish dog on a leash ... where you even created this (hilariously stupid) video online to stalk me just because I proved that you're always wrong, and that you can't possibly add technical value to _any_ thread topic. <https://youtu.be/7QaABa6DFIo> Why are you such a slavish stalker obsessed with your masturbatory fantasies simply due to the fact that I speak always valid verified facts? |

But keep calling me Snit if that's what makes your pitiful excuse of a dick hard. Glad to see you enjoy being told you're a moron. Maybe you'll just shut the fuck up and go away. And I keep re-including your original cross-posted groups because I'm sure they're enjoying watching you getting your nose rubbed in your own shit repeatedly. -- "I am a river to my people."

IF you remove the battery, the protection chip goes into disabled mode. Even if the cells are good, the laptop won't work. I only succeeded on ONE Lithium battery pack because it used a PIC processor and I was lucky that resetting the PIC restored control. I haven't tried, but I expect the same applies for Lithium cordless tools and most everything else. That's not a problem for this thread, but might influence your motivation for building a welder. |

Since the brass melts at a much lower temperature than the nickel/stainless steel, is it actually a weld (both metals melted)? Or is it more of a braze, with only the brass melted? |
