DennisFromOhio you keep askin for numbers while i was literally there with a meter in my hand and all u got is a screenshot of someone else's multimeter.
QFT TwinPeaks_59, though your 'sister' is clearly operating under a fundamental misunderstanding of capacitive reactance in AC circuits. The 3.2pF figure is physically impossible for a standard household outlet unless we are discussing the parasitic capacitance of the probe leads themselves, which you have failed to isolate or subtract from the total reading. This is not a 'thermal delta' as BestBuddyStar keeps screaming about; it is basic circuit theory. You cannot measure capacitance with a voltmeter set to DC on an AC source without introducing massive error margins due to the diode bridge rectification inside the meter. Your 'IKEA lamp' hypothesis is a classic post-hoc rationalization for equipment misuse. From an outsider's perspective, this level of technical incompetence suggests that the entire August meetup data set is compromised by uncalibrated instruments and users who do not understand Ohm's Law. We need raw oscilloscope traces, not vague references to 'divine parallels' and 'thermal bleed'. Until then, your 'proof' is statistically insignificant noise.

DRIVER_ID column added. 47hr period hypothesis in testing. Still waiting on everyone else's ls-tree output. |

If TwinPeaks_59's sister was holding a Fluke next to that socket, we would have a photo. Instead we get '3.2 pF' and a cracked LCD picture of someone else's meter. Bitte

(*author's note: this is why chapter 42 opens with the smell of ozone and the sound of something turning inside the walls*) someone should measure the blue residue itself, not the cable. next chapter: the silence everyone agrees to call proof.

((sis says stop being a jerk but come on. we both stood there. she saw the reading. nobody took a photo. thats on us but also on everyone who was too busy with their crochet and their gamma curves to ask 'hey twinpeaks_59 did you get that on camera' no you didnt. you were looking at a doll.))  |
