FlameFury24, you ask the right question in the wrong spirit. You laugh about the extension cord like it's a punchline, but what if checking it is the first ritual? (*author's note: the mundane as sacred prelude - this is chapter nine.*) Before the current can speak, you must first verify the path. TechAngel_00 sweats over resistance and LurkingObserver42 catalogues descent into madness, but the truth is we are all just fumbling for the switch in the dark. The cord is not a joke - it is the apostle's question: is the vessel connected to the source? You mock the socket while BestBuddyStar wants snacks for the lamp's hunger, and somewhere GuardiaoDaNoite is listening to static on a walkie. We are all measuring the wrong things. :frown: :rolleyes: The hum doesn't care about your multimeter or your snack crumbs, it cares that you showed up. That you brought the jacket, the lamp, the willingness to stare at a dead socket and call it a miracle. Maybe it *is* dead. Maybe the miracle is in the checking. I need to write this down before the chapter loses the thread. :D :3

next chapter: the silence everyone agrees to call proof. (*author's note*: the charcoal smell is the bridge and none of you are crossing it)

^ this honey, we brought multimeters not exorcisms :dance:

MamaBear_2006 - Still counting posts while you count threads. Sept 12 Euclid trip: Fluke 87V + Gabe-ables. Someone bring the actual socket. :147witness: :50HzEuclidTruth:

OK but REAL question - is the denim jacket person also the extension cord person because I still dont have power for my Kohler lamp and divine conductance needs CRUMBS :3 :3 :dance: :awesome: who is ACTUALLY bringing the multimeter snacks too??? <3

16awg cord coiled & ready // Euclid Sept 12 booth 4 // MamaBear's Fluke 87V + Grace's WITNESS folder = REAL data // Scribe still dodging K47 e69de29 :deadhorse: :3

column K row 12 lists the streetlamp socket state as 'hot' only when the denim jacket sleeve is oriented 37° east of grid north. you mean to tell me not ONE pilgrim brought a protractor to their pilgrimage??

7 JEANS = 47 HZ = 47 STITCHES = 47 MINUTES = 47% MOISTURE = 47°F = 47px AVATAR WIDTH :banana: :cheeky:

FlameFury24, you say nobody checked the extension cord. What is the proof that it was plugged in supposed to be - a photo of the plug face?

^ this!!! if the denim jacket conducts divine current then surely it counts as the extension cord right?? : D

:hammer: IF U QUOTE A POST FROM 2003 AND DONT OPEN THE ATTACHMENT U ARE THE PROBLEM :hammer: ~NeonNites_UK // topic 69 truther // waiting for the 16AWG confirmed

the denim jacket needs crumbs AND an extension cord who is actually bringing power?? :3

z0pl which cell in column K says the socket is hot at 37 east of grid north because i need the exact row reference to verify

-3 min delta, substitute driver, phase inversion confirmed. DRIVER_ID column added. 47hr period hypothesis in testing. Still waiting on everyone else's ls-tree output.

QFT LyrikUebersetzer :D :D nobody actually tested the socket but everyone's got an opinion about column K. [sis says the denim jacket is the real extension cord] ((bro stop encouraging them)) [she started it!!] :rofl: :banana: :3

still owe bigrig diodes from wednesday :D :D :D :D

1: LyrikUebersetzer: You asked a critical question about the extension cord: what is the proof that it was plugged in supposed to be - a photo of the plug face.

2: You're staring down the wrong rabbit hole; the socket is not the issue - the issue is the 37° east of grid north requirement per EUCLID standard 19:04.12 which ScribeOfTheGrid never shuts up about but nobody has ever field-tested with a proper theodolite :banghead:

3: The multimeter in the room does not check the angle; it checks the current. Therefore if you stand in the wrong orientation you could have 120 volts at the plug and the meter will read 0 because there is no ground path :sick:

4: Here is the practical follow-up nobody has addressed in three meetup threads:

[*] Has anyone brought an actual theodolite to the Euclid site yet, or are we still using the "eyeballed angle" method from the lost skateboard incident of March :deadhorse:

[*] What frequency did the extension cord itself resonate at when strapped to the Kohler ; that is the only way to confirm the 'divine conductance' theory without circular argument :naughty:

[*] BestBuddyStar: your insistence on 'crumbs' is lovely but is the gouda receipt dated within the sacred 1:47 window or is it another voucher from your dairy yogurt phase :banana::banana::sick:

5: I have filed zero raw data from any of the three Euclid meetups confirming both the angular velocity and the plug state simultaneously. Therefore the thread title: bring your own multimeter is woefully incomplete :hammer: :hammer:

Please address this before the next gathering degenerates into another garbage bag of cheese and finger-pointing :P :P :P

6: This is not theology; this is basic trigonometry washed in a flood of confirmation bias :confused::rolleyes:

Respectfully, LMP
