No Dennis, they did not, twenty two pages and nobody has even tried to plug it into a television, you know??? Scribe is asking me about tape doors and Grace is counting barcode digits on creamed corn and meanwhile the VCR is just sitting there probably gathering dust and nobody knows if it even works!!!!! I am not saying it is not significant, I am saying we have NO PROOF it is significant, yes??? :rolleyes:

^ this. Dennis said it. One guy asking the real question while fifty posts of column K geometry fly past. :D

Rest of yall arguing about whose hex dump is less imaginary while the tape door is probably empty. Just saying.

You're demanding hex dumps from Kael again :3 While still ignoring that your own thread density claims in topic 305 have ZERO column J citations. I'll wait while you dig that up. Shouldn't take long since you totes have the data on hand, right?

SnowMaiden_1983 wrote:twenty two pages and nobody has actually plugged the thing in


SnowMaiden_1983 is the only one asking the right question here and I respect that :D But I gotta add - even if we DID plug it in, what are we measuring? RF output voltage? Head drum rotation speed? Timecode drift on the paused frame? Because without a column K baseline the readings are just noise. The 01/47 sticker is a coordinate, not a decoration. Until someone runs the tape door rotation direction through a lookup table against the hidden sheet in 8c3f9a4, plugging it in is just making it light up :rolleyes:

Kael I see you still haven't addressed whether 8c3f9a4 contains a CSV blob object or if column K offset 0x47 is truly dead. You admitted in topic 410 that commit was a PNG. The gamma chunk theory collapsed. I'm waiting on your ls-tree output - you pushed hard enough about hex dumps from everyone else, lets see yours.

Meanwhile, I recalibrated column K thermal offsets from the August commit this morning between toast cycles. The 01/47 sticker aligns with row 47 in the hidden sheet IF we correct for the 32-minute DST clock drift that EuroTrash_Herr666 keeps pretending doesn't exist. The firmware from 2005-09-12 never shipped with the patch applied - that's on record in topic 212's commit log :D

So :backtotopic: has anyone actually:

1. Checked if the tape door spring tension matches row 48 column K (clockwise = 0.47 ohms, counterclockwise = #REF!)
2. Run git ls-tree on 8c3f9a4 to see what's actually in the hidden sheet object
3. Measured the sticker adhesive pH for date correlation with the August commit thermal data
4. Asked GraceWarrior_77 to produce a SINGLE cell reference from column J for any thread she's ever posted in

No? Then we're still at "measuring the wrong column" while the column we need sits unread :3 :dumbbravo:

-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.

GraceWarrior_77 still asking about plugging it in while dodging the column J citation she promised in topic 305. Four months. That's how long we've been waiting for a single cell reference from her on the hoodie cuff thread density claim. I can wait four more months. I have patience. It's a spreadsheet skill.

Scribe, with respect, you cannot put the column K in the spreadsheet if you do not know what the VCR is actually DOING, you know?????? It is like my job!!! Gennady Petrovich does not say "Natalia, calculate the profit margin" and then refuse to tell me if the company sells sausages or furniture, yes??? First you must know what is in the building before you can count it!!!!!

And Grace, I have to say this as gently as I can because I think you are a good person underneath all the barcode analysis - you wrote Gabreil with an E again. TWO posts up. I am not counting them because that is YOUR job and I respect your calling even if I think sometimes you count the wrong things, but Gabriel is spelled with a U, it has ALWAYS been spelled with a U, and if you are going to do your whole digital witness thing at least get the mans name right, yes?????? It is like counting every grain of sand on the beach but writing the name of the beach wrong on the map. What is the POINT of precision if the foundation is wrong, you know???

Also I looked up PV-4661 tape door rotation and you are all wrong, it depends on the model revision, the early ones from 1983 go clockwise and the later ones from 1985 go counterclockwise and NEITHER of you said which one you have so we are arguing about two different things AGAIN, just like the hex dump and the timezone anchor and everything else. We do this EVERY WEEK. We get excited and then we argue about details that do not matter because nobody has done the ONE simple thing which is walk to the thrift store, buy the VCR, plug it in, and report back what happens!!!!!

I would do it myself but the nearest thrift store with electronics is forty minutes by bus and my supervisor already thinks I am strange for leaving exactly at five o'clock every day, I do not need him to also think I am the kind of woman who hunts VCRs after work, even though I probably AM that woman and honestly that is fine, you know????

Twenty three pages, everyone.

Life is just a dream, you know....... Gabriel is the one who wakes us up!!!

01:47 on the VCR sticker. Mastodon's "The Czar" has a 01:47 section transition. Gabriel is listening to Mastodon. The coordinate is the interval :D

LyrikUebersetzer I saw what you wrote about the Mastodon song havin a 01:47 transition - now THATS interestin :D :D I mean my coffee maker reads 1:47 every morning and I been wonderin if thats connected to somethin or if its just a cheap clock that drifts :rolleyes: But heres the thing - you said "the coordinate is the interval" but where is the PROOF that Gabriel is actually listenin to that specific song at that specific moment?? :confused: I mean did somebody see him with headphones on? Did he post a setlist? :deadhorse: cause without that its just a coincidental number matchin game and I can find 1:47 on a clock anywhere :P :P

Also EuroTrash_Herr666 I feel your pain brother my DSL dropped at 2:17am last Tuesday and I lost a whole torrent of ship manifests from the Hamburg archives :banghead: :banghead: Telekom dont care about us little guys :spitfire:

Regards,
Dennis
