Yes, I think we are all missing something here.

I can tell from your posts that you don't offend easily. I hope you
did not think any of my posts were criticizing you.

Hi guys

I want to build this simple circuit to power my Xbox on and off via an IR
remote control

http://xirremote.tripod.com/

Whilst I'm OK with soldering and building the circuit, I've got no idea when
it comes to components. Could someone have a quick run through these parts
and make sure they are what I need (the urls are to the RS components UK
website and Maplins UK)

IC - http://tinyurl.com/2dfdzb
IR Reciver - http://tinyurl.com/2wglzf
Diode - http://tinyurl.com/29xk27
R1 & R2 - http://tinyurl.com/yo7d3o (codes D10K & D47K)
C1 - http://tinyurl.com/ytop3m (code BX03D)
C2 - got no idea anyone help please

Many Thanks

Jim

For C2 http://www.maplin.co.uk/search.aspx?MenuNo=56055&MenuName=ELECTROLYTICS&worldid=-2&FromMenu=y&doy=22m2
code AT05F

C1 is fine.

Diode is fine (code QL80B)

The search page for RS components was gone and a quick search didn't find
an IR receiver module that can use. Google for "IR receiver module" and
see what you can come up with.

Again the search page had disappeared, but they do have the chip, RS Stock no. 467-2255.
The problem here is that you will need some way to progam the HEX file into the chip.


I don't what Rich Grise was talking about, nothing required me to register.

Nope, it look like EMI from a switcher or something like that in there. It
was pretty loud and messing up some analog circuitry on a breadboard. The
good old Tektronix 2465 did not do that at all.

We have some of the current Agilent DC power supplies that are digitally
controlled (wherein you set the regulated voltage/current using an encoder
knob, you can memorize settings, there's a GPIB interface, etc.), and it makes
several highly-visible birdies on a spectrum analyzer. :-( For RF boards I
still use the older HP "all linear" power supplies... which I find nicer to
use in the common case where you don't need to memorize 10 different settings.

One reason why this client of mine bought those "older" supplies on EBay
as well. They are clean. Monday I almost did the usual, trudging over to
the stationary room to get some C-cells I could solder in series when I
glanced at the lab supply. Ah, it's an old analog one, I don't need to
do the battery spiel here.

It wasn't a Coutant supply was it ?

No, it was HP. The good stuff.

HP have indeed done good stuff but not IMHO as good as Tek's until I came across *THE
TDS SERIES* !!!!

AAARRGGGHHHHHHH ! KILL KILL KILL !

You know what I'd like to do ?

I'd like to get a really nice AXE. Also a decent 'stone' on which to polish its'
edge.

I would spend some time putting a very fine edge on the AXE until it could cut my own
flesh and draw blood with a mere graze.

I would them place the TDS on a solid oak bench and chop the living daylights out of
it with a thousand cuts !

That would not satisfy me however.

I would make sure I had a decent pair of Doc Marten's boots with steel toe-caps and
additional hobnails.

The chopped-up remains of the TDS I would sweep onto the floor and then stamp on up
and down for at least 5 minutes !

I would then collect the remains and transfer them to a quartz vessel where I would
mix them with aqua regia.

Once so dissolved I'd neutralise the mix and incrporate it into a load of cement. The
cement I would cast into a block and then when solid would knock to pieces with a
ball on a chain.

The pieces I would collect and feed into a rock crusher.

I would finally drop the crushed rock from a helicopter into an active volcano.

And I'd still be cross !

I really like my eight or ten various TDS scopes. I rarely use my
analog scopes any more, even though I have maybe 40 of them.


Maybe offer them through your web site or EBay? Some of my clients would
probably bite. Although the recent one only needs one more 2465 and they
have some bids out. But one never knows, on EBay the common strategy
seems to put in your final bit a few milliseconds after time is up. Kind
of like the opposite from what we do to get SWA boarding passes ;-)


I'm a collector! I never sell!

I don't have many portable scopes, maybe a Kikusui or two. Mostly big
old mainframes... 535's, 545's, 547's, 7000's, a few HP180's, a few
exotics; a zillion plugins, many sampling. I do have an HP185 4 GHz
sampling scope ca 1961, with plugins and manuals; *that* is a chunk of
history, if an ugly one.


My wife would have fits if I ever started doing that.
When we bought and refurbed the fortune cookie factory, they built a
room just for my scopes.

Aly inscribed thus:

Hello,

Would anyone here have a few 7406 chips knocking about in their
parts
drawer? I'm ideally looking for 5, but a minimum of 2.

Everywhere is sold out; RS, Farnell, Maplin, Rapid.

I can pay by PayPal, say Ł5 for 5. Naturally these need to be in
the UK as
I'm eager to sort this out. I have two identical pieces of non
working equipment, both of which I've narrowed down to the 7406's.

Many thanks,

Alison
I may have some of those kicking about !

Here are 12 questions:

1) What kind of man was Muhammad that he would have peaceful Jews, a 120
year old man, a mother of 5 children, slave girls, etc. murdered because
they disagreed or criticized him?

2) Is it right to murder others simply because they disagree with your, or
even mock you? Why couldn't Muhammad handle some criticism? Do people who
disagree with others deserve to be murdered, in cold blood, in the night,
secretly, while they sleep? Don't corrupt politicians or organized criminals
do that?

3) Isn't this type of action similar to the actions of Muslim terrorists
today? They operate secretly, they kill unsuspecting people, and they murder
without law or justice. They kill those who merely disagree or even verbally
oppose them.

4) Are these "Islamic" values compatible with our values in America? Should
Americans who criticize Muhammad expect to have their freedom of speech
threatened, or should they live in fear of being killed for speaking their
mind? Remember, Muslims in America have already begun to murder Americans
for the sake of Islam.

5) If Muhammad put this system in place, i.e., the murdering of people who
disagree and criticize him, how does it affect Islamic society? How does it
relate to what we have seen done in Islamic societies such as Algeria, Iran,
Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, and Sudan? The end result has been brutal
massacres, murders, tortures, etc. This is all traceable to Muhammad's
actions.

6) If Muhammad were alive today, and we knew of the people he had murdered,
what would you say? Wouldn't we want to see this type of man pay for his
crimes, put in jail for life, or even executed? Who feels sorry for that
white racist who was sentenced to death for dragging that black man and
killing him? Yet Muhammad had a man tortured then murdered, just to get
money. Muslims are commanded to follow Muhammad's "lifestyle" and Islamic
law. Murdering others, in Islam's name is part of that style and system.

7) Don't we have the right to judge Muhammad according to the best moral
standards we know of? He claimed to be the last prophet of God. He claimed
his system was God's final system for all mankind. So by our standards,
don't you think that what Muhammad did was terribly wrong? If our standards
are better than his, then how does his self-asserted "prophethood" really
rate? Why should our standards eclipse those of God's final prophet?

8) Doesn't this sound exactly like what the Serbs are doing? We see the
Serbs committing some of the most brutal atrocities in history. Yet Muhammad
did the same things. The Serbs have murdered the Kosovars simply because
they were not Serbs. This is exactly what Muhammad ordered when he urged his
follower to murder the Jews. We see the Serbs taking the possessions of the
Kosovars. This is exactly what Muhammad did to the tribes of people he
attacked. We see the Serbs raping Kosovan women. Muhammad allowed his
soldiers to rape female slaves. If Muhammad were alive today, we'd call him
a Serb or a Nazi!

9) Why couldn't Muhammad murder her himself? Why is it that every time
Muhammad wanted someone killed, he always got someone else to do his
killing?

10) Look at this dark side of Islam. This is the Islam Muhammad practiced.
When the founder of a religion has to have powerless women murdered in the
night for opposing him, how can that religion be described?


11) Where are "human rights" now in Islam? If Muhammad denied freedom of
speech to others, how does that reflect upon Islam and what we see occurring
in the Islamic world today?

12) Why is it that the more fundamentalist Muslim nations become, the more
oppressive they are toward all basic human rights?

And what do you expect non-muslims to do? Do you really think they are going
to deal with the real issue? What kinda solution is possible? If Islam is
fundamentally flawed in our view(unlike other religions that are flawed by
there followers) then it seems the only way to fix the problem is to remove
it from the face of the planet. Ofcourse this isn't exceptable and not all
muslims are bad but the majority of muslims will not accept outside
criticisms. So how to fix the problem?

There is a fundamental disparity in the belief system between western
culture and Islam. Its like our law is "You cannot kill" and there law is
"You must kill". Its a contradiction when you bring these two laws together
and only chaos results. They cannot exist side by side harmoniously. But
what do you do? Will the west step up to the plate and do something about
it before the west is destroyed? Doubtful.

As far as I'm concerned Islam is a particularly virulet desease that needs
to be irradicated. I could say the same about christianity but it seems like
in the last couple of hundred years they have stopped killing in the name of
god so it has been acceptable.

I think once americans realize that islam is the true target then we will
have something to fight against. Notice how almost every muslim will
mention somewhere in the koran where it talks about peace but in the same
breath accept other muslims killing innocent people(muslim and non-muslim).
It seems they think they trick us into beliving that it is a peaceful
religion and so far it seems like it has worked.

I wouldn't trust ANY Muslim.............. They're gutless when they have to
kill "secretly" not giving one the ability to defend. To kill women and
children instead of doing it one on one - hand to hand with a "REAL" man.
Their fearless leader - should be termed "BALL LESS" - as he is hiding like
the snake he is. As far as "I" am concerned, MUSLIMS, ISLAM - SUCKS AND WILL
ALWAYS SUCK. They, Muhammed, Hitler, and any of the other assholes who think
like that - all need(ed) shot. Like you give a vaccination to prevent
disease - a bullet between the eyes. There is no other way. We could have
started after 9/11 by nuking Afghanistan. We would have most likely gotten
Bin Laden and most of his cronies. We had the world on our side at that
moment. They hate us now - they may have hated us if we nuked them dessert
rats, but who cares. We'd still be in the same boat - but with one Ball less
leader dead and many of his henchmen to go with him.

What kicks me is, WE supplied those sons of bitchs years ago - just as we
did Iraq - to fight others and now THEY are our enemy. Ya got to love it.
When will WE ever learn?

My brothers and sisters everywhere! With this essay, I am not singling
out the adherents of Islam - to which I ascribe - but rather I am
writing this essay to every man and woman throughout the whole world.

I ask Allah that He facilitates tat this essay reaches every ear,
falls under the sight of every eye, and is understood by every
heart...

Muhammad the son of `Abdullah is Allah's Prophet and the Final
Messenger Sent by Allah to the Inhabitants of Earth.

My brothers and sisters everywhere! You should know that the
Messenger, Muhammad the son of `Abdullah (may Allah's blessings and
peace be upon him) is Allah's Messenger in reality and truth. The
evidences that show his veracity are abundant. None but an infidel,
who out of arrogance alone, could deny these signs.

Among these proofs:

1. Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) was raised
illiterate, unable to read or write, and remained like that till his
death. Among all his people, he was known as being truthful and
trustworthy. Before receiving revelation, he had no prior knowledge of
Religion or any previously sent Message. He remained like that for his
first forty years. Revelation then came to Muhammad with the Koran
that we now have between our hands. This Koran mentioned most of the
accounts found in the previous scriptures, telling us about these
events in the greatest detail as if he witnessed them. These accounts
came precisely as they were found in the Torah sent down to Moses and
in the Gospel sent down to Jesus. Neither the Jews or Christians were
able to belie him regarding anything that he said.

2. Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) also
foretold of everything that would occur to him and his community after
him, pertaining to victory, the removal of the tyrannical kingdoms of
Chosroes [the royal title for the Zoroastrian kings of Persia] and
Caesar, and the establishment of the religion of Islam throughout the
earth. These events occurred exactly as Muhammad foretold, as if he
was reading the future from an open book.

3. Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) also brought
an Arabic Koran that is the peak of eloquence and clarity. The Koran
challenged those eloquent and fluent Arabs of his time, who initially
belied him, to bring forth a single chapter like the Koran. The
eloquent Arabs of his day were unable to contest this Koran.

Indeed, till our day, none has ever dared to claim that he has been
able to compose words that equal-or even approach-the order, grace,
beauty, and splendor of this Glorious Koran.

4. The life history of this Noble Prophet was a perfect example of
being upright, merciful, compassionate, truthful, brave, generous,
distant from all evil character, and ascetic in all worldly matters,
while striving solely for the reward of the Hereafter. Moreover, in
all his actions and dealings, he was ever mindful and fearful of
Allah.

5. Allah instilled great love for Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and
peace be upon him) in the hearts of all who believed in and met him.
This love reached such a degree that any of his companions would
willingly sacrifice his (or her) self, mother or father for him.

Till today, those who believe in Muhammad honor and love him. Anyone
of those who believe in him would ransom his own family and wealth to
see him, even if but once.

6. All of history has not preserved the biography of any person in the
manner it has preserved the life of Muhammad, who is the most
influential human in history.

Nor has the entire earth known of anyone whom every morning and
evening, and many times thereafter throughout the day, is thought of
by those who believe in him. Upon remembering Muhammad, the believers
in him will greet him and ask Allah to bless him. They do such with
full hearts and true love for him.

7. Nor has there every been a man on earth whom is still followed in
all his doings by those who believe in him.

Those who believe in Muhammad, sleep in the manner he slept; purify
themselves (through ablution and ritual washing) in the manner he
purified himself; and adhere to his practice in the way they eat,
drink, and clothe themselves.

Indeed in all aspects of their lives, the believers in Muhammad adhere
to the teachings he spread among them and the path that he traveled
upon during his life.

During every generation, from his day till our time, the believers in
this Noble Prophet have fully adhered to his teachings. With some,
this has reached the degree that they desire to follow and adhere to
the Prophet's way in his personal matters regarding which Allah has
not sought of them to adhere to in worship. For example, some will
only eat those specific foods or only wear those specific garments
that the Messenger liked.

Let alone all that, all those who believe in Muhammad repeat those
praises of Allah, special prayers, and invocations that he would say
during each of his actions during day and night, like: what he would
say when he greeted people, upon entering and leaving the house,
entering and leaving the mosque, entering and leaving the bathroom,
going to sleep and awaking from sleep, observing the new crescent,
observing the new fruit on trees, eating, drinking, dressing, riding,
traveling and returning from travel, etc.

Let alone all that, all those who believe in Muhammad fully perform-
even to the minute detail-every act of worship-like prayer, fasting,
charity, and pilgrimage-as this Noble Messenger (may Allah's blessings
and peace be upon him) taught and as he himself performed.

All of this allows those who believe in him, to live their lives in
all aspects with this Noble Messenger as their example, as if he was
standing before them, for them to follow in all their doings.

8. There has never been nor will there ever be a man anywhere upon
this earth who has received such love, respect, honor, and obedience
in all matters-small and large alike-as has this Noble Prophet.

9. Since his day, in every region of the earth and during every
period, this Noble Prophet has been followed by individuals from all
races, colors and peoples. Many of those who followed him were
previously Christians, Jews, pagans, idolaters, or without any
religion. Among those who chose to follow him, were those who were
known for their sound judgment, wisdom, reflection, and foresight.
They chose to follow this Noble Prophet after they witnessed the signs
of his truthfulness and the evidences of his miracles. They did not
choose to follow Muhammad out of compulsion or coercion or because
they had adopted the ways of their fathers and mothers.

Indeed many of the followers of this Prophet (may Allah's blessings
peace be upon him), chose to follow him during the time when Islam was
weak, when there were few Muslims, and when there was severe
persecution of his followers on earth. Most people who have followed
this Prophet (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) have done
so not to acquire some material benefits. Indeed many of his followers
have suffered the greatest forms of harm and persecution as a result
of following this Prophet. Despite all this harm and persecution, this
did not turn them back from his religion.

My brethren! All of this clearly indicates to anyone possessing any
sense, that this Prophet was truly and really Allah's messenger and
that he was not just a man who claimed prophethood or spoke about
Allah without knowledge.

10. With all this, Muhammad came with a great religion in its credal
and legal make-up.

Muhammad described Allah with qualities of complete perfection, and at
the same time in a manner that is free of ascribing to Him any
imperfection. Neither the philosophers or the wise could ever describe
Allah like such. Indeed it is impossible to imagine that any human
mind could conceive of an existing being that possesses such complete
ability, knowledge, and greatness; Who has subdued the creation; Who
has encompassed everything in the universe, small or large; and Who
possesses such perfect mercy.

Nor is it in the ability of any human being to place a perfect law
based upon justice, equality, mercy and objectivity for all human
activity on earth like the laws that Muhammad brought for all spheres
of human activity - like buying and selling, marriage and divorce,
renting, testimony, custody, and all other contracts that are
necessary to uphold life and civilization on earth.

11. It is impossible that any person conceive wisdom,, morals, good
manners, nobleness of characters as what this honorable Prophet (may
Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) brought.

In a full and complete manner, Muhammad spread a teaching regarding
character and manners toward one' parents, relatives, fiends, family,
humanity, animals, plants and inanimate objects. It is impossible for
the human mind alone to grasp all of that teaching or come with a
similar teaching.

All of that unequivocally indicates that this Messenger did not bring
an) of this religion from his own accord, but that it was rather a
teaching and inspiration that he received from the One Who created the
earth and the high heavens above and created this universe in its
miraculous architecture and perfection.

12. The legal and credal make-up of the religion that the Messenger,
Muhammad, (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) brought
resembles the engineering of the heavens and the earth. All of that
indicates that He who created the heavens and the earth is the One Who
sent down this great law and upright religion.

The degree of inimitability of the Divine law that was sent down upon
Muhammad is to the same degree of inimitability of the Divine creation
of the heavens and earth. For just as humanity cannot create this
universe, in the same manner humanity cannot bring forth a law like
Allah's law that He sent down upon His servant and messenger Muhammad
(may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him).


Sounds like you actually worship Muhammad.

Here are 12 questions:

He was a tribal leader of a bunch of scimitar wielding thugs that
happened to win a battle, after which some of the dopes wrote scrolls
declaring him as holy. He is neither a profit nor a god, nor a savior
of any kind.

NOT HOLY.

MURDERERS are NOT HOLY.

SADDAM was NOT HOLY.

"Muhammad" was a murderer and was NOT HOLY.

Get a fucking clue.
