    Dreading renewal of Driver's Licence and Passport (Jhb) - advice, hints & tips?

    That's intentional. It's a built-in psychometric test.

    So... Hamas didn't post all that video footage of themselves all over Israel?

    Exactly. That is precisely why war is bad and one shouldn't start one. That is precisely what Hamas knew when they launched the October 7 attacks.

    Lolz. A single nut does not a bottle of Frangelico make.

    *Sigh* *Sigh* In any country the army is a small fraction of the populace. So what's your point? Wars are fought by armies and civilans die in the process. Why don't you go look at typical Fighter:Civilian death tolls in modern wars. You'll see that Israel is doing a spectacularly good job of...

    Ah yes! Classical intolerance as practiced by dictators around the world: You don't agree with me and therefore you're you're twisted and sick.

    Interesting that you haven't listed a single item in response to #61 above. Presumably you can't.

    *sigh* The graph shows GDP data from 1995 to 2022. That's the latest data available. All your terror attacks and intifada stuff don't seem to have mattered much.

    Jewish interests in the middle east have been the subject of boycotts for over 100 years. BDS is just another silly attempt. Keep dreaming of a Jedenfrei Israel but don't hold your breath.

    Here is a graph of Isreal's GDP per capita over the last 20 or so years: https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.PCAP.CD?locations=IL If that's what BDS calls success then I'd love to know what their version of failure looks like.

    Precisely which of his statements do you regard as untrue? Presumably you can name them seeing as you have accused him of "spewing propaganda".

    They opened the set with ACDC's thunderstruck. Presumably the choice of band was a nod to loadshedding. All the forty and fifty somethings went nuts.

    I saw Alex Jay and Barney Simon DJing together last month. IF IT'S TOO LOUD YOU'RE TOO OLD!

    I guess the track would be Roxette's "Crash Boom Bang" then?

    This is a HiFi group. Let's rather debate what system the Hamas leadership should buy with the billions of dollars that they've stolen from the people of Gaza. That's at least pertinent.

    How much do cables matter?

    This sounds amazing. I can't wait to lift the veil of phlogistonic interference from my sonic being. please take my money ;-)

    Avo meter

    These are classics and you should do a bit of research as to value. It's probably not accurate anymore, they do need calibration as they age because the magnets in the movement tend to deteriorate over time. It's a lovely find.

    If you have a street address then I have a set of pillories left over from an, uh, party. Want to try them out? Interestingly I also have some whips and an electric cattle prod left over from that party.

    Spectrum Analyser

    You won't see the sample resolution from a spectrum analyzer. Even on an oscilloscope you'd have a *very* hard time spotting it. That said, moving from 16 bit to 24 bit (provided the rest of the system is decent) does give an audible difference IMHO. As mentioned above the best place to check is...

    How much do cables matter?

    A connector or cable's characteristic impedance does not depend on frequency. In my game 50 ohm is the common standard. As an example a common RG58U cable is good from low frequency up to 1GHz or so, depending on manufacturer and allowable losses. At all of those frequencies it is 50 ohm. The...
