An electronics joke that I get!!! (Unlike the point of this thread after 10 firkin pages)

Now, can someone please explain why there are only 1 0 people that understand the need for binary? (see what I did there, did ya???)

Ah - now you must be a similar vintage to me. Trannies were the cat's whiskers of our day

I can remember them taking over from valves, you whippersnapper.

I've got a sixteen valve Lada. Eight in the engine and eight in the radio.

Blimey - do they make Ladas with engines that can power an eight valve radio?

I agree, you just need something subtle to replace it....

@rich p doesn't do subtle.

This is more to his taste.

Now I'd watch wendyball if it was like that.

I've figured it out. Arrowroot works for laughing cow and is being paid for every mug he gets to watch the advert. He's earned three cheese triangles and one dipper since this started.

You may be right, although after this I can guarantee I will never buy any of their plastic cheese, and will always associate Laughing Cow with nobbers.

I remember the first course I was on where they were talking about LEDs.

Always wanted to build something using hearing aid valves. Didn't they work down to 9v?

Well, young person, back in the day we didn't have these new-fangled modern "volts". Power back then were were generated by rats running on wheels attached to a dynamo. It would take several rodents to power a valve, and they would be on shiftwork as it were tough going. Im not sure of the rat to voltage conversion factor to provision you with an accurate answer. What I am sure of is that a volt will never jump free of its wheel and run up your trouser leg. Eeee, that would make your valves flicker.

When I were a lad there were no words on this forum, just trees and fields as far as the eye could see.

I bet on Facebook you used to have to scribble your message on paper then put it in the post, then wait a week for it to be printed up on a big sheet of paper and got pinned up on the parish noticeboard.

Feck me you must be the oldest person on the planet if you didn't have Volts back then !

Its not that we didn't have them, we just didn't want to go all "la-de-dar" metric.

The potential difference of electric is not measured in volts - it measured in exhausted rats.
