Top 10 Worst Marketing Gaffes Ever

Listverse Staff

Advertising is a part of life whether we like it or not. It is on TV, in Movies, on the Internet, on Buses and practically anywhere it can be seen by prospective customers. Sometimes ads are funny, sometimes they are poignant, but mostly they are annoying. And sometimes, ads are downright stupid. This list looks at 10 marketing gaffes, and blunders, or just downright bad commercials.

Mac Tonight

This advert by McDonald’s – which was meant to “adultify” the fast-food joint used Mack the Knife as its theme. Mack the Knife (the character) comes from The Beggar’s Opera in which the he typifies the anti-establishment sentiments of its writer John Gay. The more famous song as we know it was written by Kurt Weill for The Three Penny Opera based on a reworking of the tale by Bertolt Brecht – a Marxist who, ironically for McDonald’s, despised capitalism – the very thing which enabled McDonald’s to become what it is today.

Whopper Virgins

McDonald’s isn’t the only company to make marketing gaffs – in December 2008, Burger King purchased the rights to an advertising campaign that centered on a taste-test marketing campaign, dubbed “Whopper Virgins.” The test claimed to target participants who were unaware of the existence of Burger King or McDonald’s, and had never eaten a hamburger. Opponents of the campaign called it exploitative and racist. As one would expect from a campaign such as this, Burger King was chosen as the favorite by all of the “poor foreigners” involved.

Skittles Depression

Skittles are wonderful colorful candies that everyone loves to eat. In fact, they are awesome. Not so this ad. For some reason it was deemed a good idea to make an ad which parodies the suffering caused by disease. Yes – it appears amusing, but after watching this, the thing I want is a razor blade, not a packet of skittles.

Quiznos Sub

Frankly, I don’t find the idea of a creature which looks like a cross between a rat and a coughed up hairball to be an appealing mascot for a fast food store. And I am not alone in this. When Quizno’s released this series of ads (basing them on a popular Internet Meme at the time), there was such a backlash from consumers that they had to pull them – fast. Poor Quiznos also caused controversy with this ad for its sexual innuendo.

Blue Screen Of Death

In the fast paced world of computer software, every opportunity to advertise is significant. Such was the case in the press conference above in which Microsoft had Bill Gates demonstrate Windows 98 to the entire world. Unfortunately for Bill, in the middle of the demo, Windows crashed and showed the dreaded Blue Screen of Death. There is a very uncomfortable pause while both of the men on stage try to think of something witty to get passed it.

Poor Gary Coleman has had some bad luck in his life. Despite the illness which rendered him short for life, he became one of the most popular child actors on Different Strokes in the 1980s. At the peak of the show he was earning $100,000 per episode – but his parents, lawyers, and the taxman stole the majority of it leaving him penniless. But then, during 2006 and 2007, he appeared in commercials for a cash-advance loan company called CashCall. He ends the commercial by saying, “Pay your bills on time and everyone will love you.” He even remarks in one commercial that “no one would lend [him] money, not even [his] relatives.” and “What’choo talkin’ ’bout CashCall?” in another. Demeaning.

I’d Hit It

Mcdonalds Id Hit It Ad.Jpg

When McDonald’s came up with this marketing campaign, their ad executives didn’t know what the phrase “I’d hit it” meant. They simply heard kids using the jargon and decided it would be their next big slogan. Unfortunately for McDonald’s, it means (according to Urban Dictionary): “I’ll have sex with her but I’ll be damned if I respect her.” Even worse, the full phrase of the slogan was “Double Cheeseburger? I’d hit it. I’m a Dollar Menu guy.” Nice.

This one has featured on listverse before, but it is simply too bad not to include. Obviously when it was first released the AIDS virus was not known, but it is definitely one of the most cringeworthy ads in history. Not only is it named after one of the worst diseases in humans at the present time, it advocates diet pills for weightless rather than exercise and portion control. “Lose weight deliciously with the aid of Ayds!”

Yesterday and Today

Album covers have long been used as advertising gimmicks – to attract buyers by the often unrelated artwork. Unfortunately for the Beatles, the 1966 US release of their album “Yesterday and Today” featured the above album cover. Upon release, reaction was immediate, and Capitol received a storm of complaints from dealers. The record was immediately recalled and all copies were ordered shipped back to the record label, leading to its collectibility. Despite all of the controversy, the album reached number one in the United States.

Smiley Central

Spyware Pivot.Jpg

This one is on the list for its sheer awfulness – for the company it may be a success – for every person that has to suffer it – it is an abomination. The smiley central ads usually make annoying noises and the worst thing about it is that if you do click the ad and install their smileys – it installs spyware which tracks your web habits for advertising purposes. [JFrater: These awful things even appeared on listverse causing hours of wasted time being spent tracking down the host advertiser to have it blocked. Smiley central is evil.] Smiley Central is owned by – previously AskJeeves.

Weird Stuff

10 Strange Birth Customs From Around The World

Himanshu Sharma

Birth is beautiful, but in some parts of the world, it’s also a bit weird. These 10 birth customs may make you feel really thankful you weren’t born around any of them.

10Balinese Babies Can’t Touch The Ground

Photo credit: Bali Star Island

Various strange ceremonies surround Balinese birth. Take the setra ari ari, for instance. The Balinese believe that the placenta, or ari ari, has a spirit of its own that acts as the child’s guardian angel. Parents therefore bury the placenta ritually in a special cemetery.

But perhaps the weirdest custom is that babies aren’t allowed to touch the ground until they reach three months of age. The newborn is considered pure, and any contact with the floor within those three months will defile it. But at the three-month mark, the family holds a formal ceremony, in which the baby walks the unclean ground for the first time.

9Eating The Placenta

The placenta sends the fetus nutrition, but some mothers consider it to be nutrition itself. Through maternal placentophagy, the mother eats her own placenta after birth to absorb hormones and other nutrients.

The practice is very common among animals that may have no other food handy right after labor. It turns out that some humans swear by it, too. Traditional medicine in China, Jamaica, and parts of India recommend it for various mystical reasons. Modern practitioners claim that hormones from the placenta can relieve stress and curb post-partum depression.

Scientists remain skeptical. Cooking the placenta destroys the hormones and other unique proteins, while eating it raw risks infection that outweighs any benefits.

8Wedding Cake On The Baby’s Forehead

Some couples save a bit of their wedding cake for an anniversary, but Irish couples traditionally hold on to theirs for another occasion: the first child’s christening. The parents serve the top tier of the cake to guests and sprinkle a few crumbs on the child’s forehead to bless it with good luck.

A proper Irish wedding cake generally has a fair bit of whiskey. But since a few crumbs of whiskey cake is hardly enough alcohol for an Irish child, couples often save some champagne from the wedding along with the cake. They open it at the baptism and use it to wet the happy baby’s head.

7Baby Fellatio

The Manchu, an ethnic minority in China, have a weird way of showing their love for their newborns. Their public displays of affection extend even to the child’s genitals. Girls receive joyous genital tickling, while the boys receive full-on fellatio from their mothers. Similar practices go on in some other cultures, among some people in Thailand, Japan, and India.

The act isn’t intended as sexual at all. Interestingly, the Manchu do consider kisses to always be sexual, even when given to a family member or child, so Manchu parents will never kiss their child’s face.

6Chinese Pregnancy Restrictions

Apparently, China has a great many odd birth customs. When a Chinese couple marry and enter their home for the first time, the husband is supposed to carry the bride over the threshold, just like the international custom—but he also carries her over burning coals to ensure that she can give birth without any problems. Then when the wife does get pregnant, she traditionally faces a host of unusual and surprising bans.

She must not gossip. She must not laugh too loudly. She mustn’t get angry or even think bad thoughts. She mustn’t look at colors that clash, and she should only eat light-colored food (to create a light-colored baby, of course). She must never sit on a crooked mat, else the child may be born deformed.

She must sleep with a knife under her bed, so the sharp object will deter bad spirits. The house must not undergo any construction during the pregnancy—and the mother can have absolutely no sex.

5Spitting On The Baby

The Wolof people of Mauritania and surrounding countries believe that human saliva can retain words, so they spit on newborns to add blessings that stick. When a baby is born, women spit on its face, men spit in its ear, and then, for good measure, they rub saliva all over its head.

The Igbo tribe in Nigeria goes a step further. When a baby is born, it goes to the family’s ancestral house. There, a relative who is a good orator chews some alligator pepper, spits it on a finger, and puts it in the baby’s mouth. This supposedly makes the child grow up to be just as good an orator as the donor of the spit.

4Shoving Mayan Babies In Chilled Water

What do you do to keep your baby free of heat strokes and rashes? If you answered “douse them in icy water,” there’s a good chance you’re Mayan.

In hot countries like Guatemala, Mayan mothers think ice baths are the best way to fight the heat. The babies generally scream during their whole time in the bath, but the mothers don’t mind. They claim the baby goes to sleep right after. And whether or not that’s true, witnesses say that the ice bath really does cure heat rash.

3Lithuanian Baby Racing

Most of our infants spend their time chilling and getting spoiled by their parents, but some Lithuanian babies have things a little different. Every year, the country organizes a race to find the fastest crawler in the country.

The event is often marked by hilarious moments when the babies have absolutely no idea what to do and crash midway—because they’re babies. Parents nudge them on by holding toys or other shiny objects.

The race is even supported by sponsors and generally attracts huge crowds every year. It’s scheduled annually for June 1, which just happens to be International Child Protection Day.

2Unassisted Nigerian Birth

Photo credit: PATHS2

In parts of Nigeria, pregnant women are supposed to give birth alone. Midwives and other support come in after the delivery, but the woman is expected to go through the process itself without any help.

This custom has more to do with poverty and women’s low social standing than with independence. In a lot of cases, the families simply don’t support asking for outside help, no matter how much the mother needs it. Some organizations are responding to the trend by entering rural areas and offering help. Unaided, mothers who give birth often suffer miscarriages or other complications.

1Isolated Pakistani Mothers

Photo credit: Manalahmad Khan

Kalash mothers in Pakistan also traditionally give birth away from their families but for a different reason: The culture considers mothers in labor to be unclean. Mothers therefore deliver their children in a special isolated building called the Bashleni.

The system lets men stay far away from the disgusting fluids and the general air of childbirth, for fear of polluting themselves. Even other women who will probably go through the same thing in the future, or have in the past, don’t want be around. The only people who can enter the house to assist the mother are women who are menstruating because they, too, are seen as unclean.

Project Update: Dining Room

Do you remember way back when we shared this design plan with you? We just got back the final photos from the photographer and we are soooo excited with the finished product. When we started our this room was just a "pass through room" between the living room and kitchen but the fabulous wallpaper makes this space stand out on its own and demand some attention. IMG_4589IMG_4570A collection of plates as interest to our walls while letting the wallpaper be the star of the show. IMG_4554Since this room is off of the patio and has a garden inspired wallpaper an oversized lantern was the perfect lighting choice. This one from Ralph Lauren through Visual Comfort is a stunner.IMG_4548The vintage Chippendale chairs are painted an accent color that really pops off of the darker trim color. IMG_4599We wanted to create a more gathered and lived in look and the vintage buffet and collection of milk glass contribute to that feel. We are in love with the red high chair! This room connects to this living room and the red ties into to the pops of red throughout that space which helps tie the home together.  IMG_4535We love the finished space, but more importantly our client loves it. What do you guys think? LIV beautifully

5 Tips for Staying Physically Active in College

Going to college is an exciting and busy time in life. While it may be a challenge to find time to fit physical activity into your schedule, doing so may make you feel and look better and also help you do better and be more focused and efficient in class! Consider some of the ideas below to stay active and healthy while in college.

  1. Bike instead of driving.
    Instead of driving or taking the bus around town or to campus, consider biking.  Make sure to wear a helmet and pay attention to the cars and other bikes around you.
  2. Try some fitness classes at the rec center.
    Campus recreation centers offer a wide variety of group fitness classes, such as cycling, Zumba, indoor climbing and yoga. Working out in a group fitness setting can help provide motivation and a fun social atmosphere, as well as help meet others that are striving to be fit and healthy!
  3. Find a workout partner.
    Being physically active with a friend can help to keep you both accountable, and it often makes working out more enjoyable.  Consider meeting up with a friend twice a week to go for a run or bike ride, or play outdoor volleyball or kickball with a group of friends!
  4. Write it in your planner.
    Make physical activity a required part of your agenda, just like you do for classes or homework.  By planning ahead and scheduling physical activity into your week, you will be more likely to follow through!
  5.  Walk between classes.
    If you have a break between classes, whether it is ten minutes or one hour, go for a walk around campus.  This will allow you to be physically active, while also exploring different parts of your college!

There are many benefits to being physically active during college including mental, physical, and social benefits.  See how you can fit physically activity into your daily schedule and routine!

Lady Lodge Systems Ltd

System Overview

Lady Lodge Systems Ltd software system is called TRACT.

TRACT was initially written for a Frozen Food distribution company called King Bros located in Peterborough Cambridgeshire. From its origins as a software suite written for one Frozen Food distributor, the system has grown to encompass a wide range of capabilities and functions; all sales being achieved by referral and personal recommendation and without any form of advertising or sales staff.

Because Lady Lodge Systems does not charge its clients for specific development work or upgrades, ideas flow freely and are rapidly integrated into the system enhancing the software to the mutual benefit of all concerned.

Standard Features

TRACT provides all of the standard features one would expect from a modern software suite designed to run an entire business.

From a fast and powerful telesales system through sophisticated stock control and delivery scheduling to a comprehensive nominal ledger, TRACT provides its users with all of the support necessary to do their jobs more effectively and productively.

Experience has shown that Lady Lodge Systems clients have been able to significantly increase their business whilst simultaneously decreasing their overheads after installing TRACT.

Specialised Features

In addition to the 'normal' features of an integrated computer system TRACT provides a plethora of specialised functions explicitly written at the request of Lady Lodge Systems clients in response to their daily needs in the Foodservice Distribution industry.

Generalised software packages cannot begin to address such specialisation because they are aimed at a wide range of divergent businesses. TRACT being aimed purely at the Foodservice and Ice Cream distributor can and does address the specific requirements of its target market making it the leading package in the industry.

Lady Lodge Systems constructs its own computer systems using modular parts sourced from the industries leading manufacturers.

In utilising this approach, the company can provide its clients with a system specification finely tuned to their needs and provide an inexpensive upgrade path for future expansion.

In addition to the computer system and directly associated equipment, Lady Lodge Systems also supplies specialised hardware to fulfil certain specialised requirements such as In-Cab Van-sales systems and fully integrated EPOS systems.

System Support

Having tried the 'traditional' approach of using computer maintenance companies and found the level of service both expensive and less than satisfactory, Lady Lodge Systems now provides an inexpensive and simple solution to the potential problem of a system failure by making complete replacement standby computers available to it's clients.

This simple solution means that any 'down-time' is kept to the bare minimum and our clients (a number of whom are operating 24 hours a day) can continue to operate without the trauma of waiting for a hardware engineer to arrive or suitable parts to be supplied.

Boat Cards!
By Michael

Two big steps this week: boat cards and a mailing address.

Hoping to get carded
I didn't get the whole boat card thing before we left on our first trip. We had cards on board the first Del Viento only because someone gave them to us as a goodbye gift (thank you Larry). We were soon glad we had them. Cruising is a very socially transient lifestyle. Boat cards were a way for us to remember the folks we ran into. I can thumb through our collection from 15 years ago and recall people and events I may have well forgotten.
Rather than a photo on our cards this time, I commisioned a nautical artist in Washington state to sketch our boat. I heard  about Jeff Orlando from a post by Andiamo III, about how he drew the picture of their boat on their cards. When I got to Jeff's site, I liked his gallery of drawings and boat cards he's done for others. Using just a few pictures of our boat and a description of the scene I wanted, he did an outstanding job. He was generous with his time and just a nice guy.

Of course, before we could get our cards, we needed a mailing address to put on them. We ended up using St.Brendan's Isle. While I like the folksy, mom-and-pop quality of their competitor, Voyagers Mail Forwarding Service, SBI's reputation is stellar and they offer a mail scanning service that may alleviate the need for most physical mail forwarding. Though, given that all of our banking and billing has been paperless and online for years, we don't get a lot of mail that will have to be forwarded. But they also offer a service whereby they will acquire a boat part for you at their discounted rate and ship it out right away.
In either case, it is going to cost us about a quarter-boat-buck per year, and both companies will take care of renewing our USCG documentation each year (why isn't that online yet?!). We considered asking family to handle our mail, but the knowledge these cruiser-oriented companies have in getting shipments to far flung places in the least time, with the least hassle, and at the least expense, is worth the expense, I hope. I've heard countless stories of cruisers waiting months for a package, never getting a package, extorted by customs officials, or all of the above.

It's pretty exciting to have a new address (though Florida doesn't feel like us, neither of us has any association with the place--and I meant to put our boat's Washington, D.C. hailing port on the cards and forgot). It is one more bit of tangible evidence that this huge thing is actually coming to pass.

  1. I'm getting excited with/for you!

  2. The cards turned out beautiful! And thank for all the very useful links!

Thank you for taking the time to comment; we look forward to reading your feedback. Don't forget that you may also contact us directly at (please type DEL VIENTO in the subject line)

A bit of creativity

Of all the pictures I was editing yesterday, this is the only one that came out the way I was hoping it would.

Had a sort of creative streak yesterday so i took my digital camera along on my walk. Figured this would make a good shot to try the "antique" filter on my photo editing software.

I'm back up to four miles a day on my walks, still a far cry from what I did in the Infantry, but there's no need to see if I can still push myself 20+ miles with a pack on my back.

When it rains, it pours.

It has been rather...irritating, haven't been able to find a full time job the past year and a half that wouldn't interfere with my on going maritime training. Now all of a sudden I can't keep up with all the job offers coming in. First major one to come in was from the State, a steward position on board the ferry system. Not bad, it would get my foot in the door and would be able to rise through the ranks while earling State benefits/retirement just the duty would suck having to clean up after everyone.

Not three days after I interviewed with the State, I got a phone call from Military Sealift Command, a civilian contractor to the Navy. I faxed in a copy of my letter of sea time and last week I get a phone call back offering me a position with their Ordinary Seaman Advancement Program. I quickly jumped at this chance, federal benefits, basically working for the Navy without being in the Navy. My time in the Army counts towards my pay/retirement/vacation so I'll be starting out almost max everything. Looking through my training, all I am is missing is my 120 watch standing days onboard a vessel over 200 tons, so figure I'll complete that in my first 4 month tour on board a ship and raise my rating and my base pay will raise to about $40k/year. I'd be starting out in the Deck department instead of Steward as well.

So all this is leading up to today, recovering from all the traveling I've had to do lately. Monday I get a phone call from MSC setting up an appointment to under go a physical. So Wednesday I had to travel back to Juneau and go to the Federal Occupational Health and start my battery of tests. That took about 4 hours on Wednesday but only a half hour to finish off on Thursday.

This physical was more thorough then the one I underwent to get into the Army. Plugged me into an EKG, found out my ticker is strong, healthy and normal. Tested every part of my vision and found out my corrected vision is outstanding (20/15 right, 20/18 left). My hearing is as strong today as ever without any signs of normal hearing loss due to age. My blood work came back with everything almost dead center of the "normal" ranges. My lung capactiy is 98% of where it should be and no drugs show up in my UA. My blood pressure is good, not quite as good as my readings from my time in the Army but I'm no longer working out with that kind of cardiovascular intensity.

I'm healthy as an ox, the physician's only concern is that I'm as big as one too ;) Rather to his surprise, I have excellent balance, hand/eye coordination and flexibility.

I really have to wonder what demographic was tested to find out the "ideal" weight a person is suppose to be for their height. I'm curious if the ratio of pi is factored in there somewhere, seems most things are, since that's the most naturally pleasing to the eye proportions.

Monday I get scheduled go to get a PPD test, not worried about that, haven't had any kind of contact with TB in the 7 years since my last test of that. One of these days I'm going to have to consolidate and update my shot record, tends to raise some eye brows with it being so thorough not to mention several in the anthrax series of vaccination.

Getting to the point I'm going to need to keep my own hospital records with me where ever I go as well.

I don't see MSC delaying too long on getting me back east for orientation, there's an extreme shortage of the Able Seaman rating industry wide.

what to cook...

well, options are really limited here on this island about what kind of ingredients you can use when cooking. things are doubly harder since I have to consider the amounts of sodium in everything I make if I'm cooking for my step father. rather difficult when the majority of foods are either processed or canned, fresh stuff tends to run on the expensive side.

so, with time running thin, I opted for a simple recipie that I've yet to try.

2 1/2 lb pork chops
1 bottle of salsa (sodium isn't as bad as I thought)
1 15 oz can of chilli beans (being canned is higher then I'd wish on sodium)
1 cup frozen corn

Throw the chops, salsa and beans in a crock pot on high for 2 1/2 hours (low for 5). Add in corn and cook for an additional 30 minutes and serve over rice. Should be intresting. I guess I'm starting to show the time I've spent in Texas in my cooking.

Rather funny that the majority of my cook books are stuff for the crock pot, which suited my work schedule in Juneau quite well. I love the aroma off all day cooking when coming home after a long day. Plus the anticipation of a savory dinner waiting at home tends to make dinner that much more enjoyable.

Still alive

Almost out of creamer for my coffee, guess I'll have to go to the store soon or else I'm just a bear in the mornings without it.

I'm still alive and kicking, been doing some travel so my schedule's been rather upset. Rather ironic that I live by routine but hate getting in a rut.

Sitting here listening to a bit of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata and pondering what to write. I have some ideas that I've been mulling over for the past week now so I should kick myself in the pants and get to putting pen to paper so to speak.

they grey stuff is plastic, but the cab is thick hard paint over MDF
yeah they make like 50 or 100
blackmoon: yeah but youre just standing there waiting
like, making a phone call or sending a text doesnt do it
was just random
calls wouldnt do it
blackmoon: it might be coupling all the time but only a particular thing gets demodulated into audio
the opamps doesnt react to it symmetrically
so they start clipping against a rail
might be as simple as an opamp swap, but on a product as high volume as that, they want mad proof before they stop the line and rework
but we couldnt reliably reproduce and it wasnt a huge issue, just some rich fuck producers who complained

electronics are mostly the same, ST chipamps, woofers still fuckin up the budget in favor of the consumer
the VXT series has natsemi LM3886 chipamps, dunno if theyre still selling that, they been redesigning it for like 100 years now
vxt has fiber composite woofers, the rokits just have a kevlar weave layer on paper cones
the whites were probably the coolest ones
red and yellow with the yellow cones was kinda tacky
they have white or yellow cones?
i can never remember because there was so much weird prototype shit around
like we had blue rokits with a stanton logo
so glad that never happened, heh
thats g1, thats wood

Posted by renesis at 17:38 | permalink | 0 comments

like 4 years ago
stanton/krk/cerwin-vega, laid of half of engineering, got bought by gibson couple years after
yeah i got g1 rokit 8s and the matching 10" sub, they were doing a warehouse sale before moving buildings
with the sub, really with i had the rokit 5, but that 8s arent bad
the tweeter seems bit slow, but they measure flat within like 1.5dB of 1khz, measured in a room where dsp genelecs are flat within 0.5db
ohsixi: the flat wood face ones?
or the plastic face ones
i dont like how those look so much

Posted by renesis at 17:33 | permalink | 0 comments

fuck i think my KRKs just did that digital interference sound thing customers complained about that we sucked at reproducing
its the phones
i have two phones charging on top of it, one of them powered off (standby, i guess), other one on
always the fucking phones
we could get certain peoples phones to do it, but its not like we had a cell tower simulator, so shit would happen at totally random intervals

i guess i just go to bike shop and ask them about bottom brackets
its pretty cool, school has a bike repair stand
stocks hundreds of tubes, enough tools to handle anything
heh, this week was last week to drop
i think a third of the bikes arent taking up the racks anymore
guess university isnt much diff from community college like that
first month everyone thinks theyre going to school
in my intro tech graphics class, instructor totally did the '60% of you will give up at engineering, so its not so bad if you don't do well' speech

if i made an SM i could do two stroke, but i kinda just want to buy something its way cheaper than doing a full conversion
yes obviously
arguably a dual sport is better for i want to do
because if rough roads or suddenly gravel (happens)
but im pretty careful about only driving as fast as i can, especially on unfamiliar roads
*fast as i can see
i missed a Lemons race at thunderhill (45min away) last weekend
because studying, was looking forward to that
i guess there is just something kind of uncompromised and single purpose about super motos that i like
but yeah prob not until next year, winter and summer are going to be about paying off stupid car
stupid car just sits there doing nothing now
totally covered in sap, prob all pissed at me because of it
its like is reliability is mocking me

Posted by renesis at 13:03 | permalink | 0 comments

i want a dirtbike to convert to a super moto
i always felt like i kill myself on a sportbike
but something lighter with more grip and less power sounds awesome, all i want to do is ride mountain roads
i might get a 250
because im heavy and hills
80 would be fun to get around town, but im 4 blocks from school
if my bike dies i can walk fine
yeah i want something can do least like 35mph up a hill
because traffic
if i wanted a dirtbike an 80 would be hella neat, but i basically want to use a dirt bike as a street bike for attacking canyons
i basically want that in 250cc
i think yamaha makes a factory super moto
its a dirtbike with lowered and stiffened suspension, upside down forks, street tires

Posted by renesis at 12:58 | permalink | 0 comments

that makes sense, they never design the shit to pivot around the output shaft
that would be a design nightmare
its like 6" behind or some shit, no?
not as bad as i thought
nice 80 =)
great resale
you got a good tank and seat between them?
haha wtf @ spokes gone

Posted by renesis at 12:53 | permalink | 0 comments

i have a stainless chain, all half links, seems to be working out well, doesnt seem stretched
i guess only a few hundred miles tho
easier to resize, looks so much cooler
also the stainless is sexy as fuck, people are like, HOW DO I GET MY CHAIN CLEAN LIKE THAT!?
im like, never
well half links seem more stretchable, was my only concern
ive never lubed my chain
and im pretty sure my crank is aluminum
the crank wheel
still toothy as fuck, tho i broke one tooth on my jeans once
well i keep my chain tight, no gears, way under 1/4" of play, have a chain tensioner on the rear spindle
that actually might be why the bearings are fucked
gets pants stuck inside and its enough to yank the crank shaft at a weird angle
its a 24" bmx cruiser
little smaller than a hybrid mountain bike, way bigger than standard BMX

Posted by renesis at 12:48 | permalink | 0 comments

i feel like if i take the crank off the bearings will go to shit
gut feeling i guess
yeah was awesome last time
i could pedal backwards like 10 times
and get maybe 3 or four revs forward
went about a mile like that
yeah i have a spare freewheel with shorter gearing, just have to flip my wheel around
and i got beefy 4 pawl ones, sound cool and seem reliable
very little play on initial peddling
i dont think its a BMX standard
euro brackets came from other more common bikes im pretty sure
so should be able to find something, but i dunno if i can find the long cranks
i maybe just treat it as a consumable part and have spares around
no the diameter, pretty BMX uses the thickest standard
they always ship with bushings to downsize
youre bike is not a normal bike

Posted by renesis at 12:43 | permalink | 0 comments

hardly ever, remember it only rains maybe dozen times a year here
naw theyre totally clean
the last set was fine except the bearings crushed, lots of half bearings and a few fragments
i have to get a new frame
the euro brackets thread in, why they use smaller bearings
older, 'standard' bottom brackets used much bigger bearings
yeah dunno if those are the same
thats my last set
its like, two sealed bearings, sometimes pressed onto a common ID bushing
i dont think the crank shaft diameters are the same
and im not sure the widths are the same either, or even standard in BMX
i dont even know if i want to clean them

Posted by renesis at 12:38 | permalink | 0 comments

blackmoon: any ideas how to make overloaded sealed bearings last longer?
pretty sure im running some hemispheres in my crank bracket bearings =(
its making the noise like my last bottom bracket before it bearings shattered
its because euro style
so instead of two big bearings on either side, theres four, two on each side, smaller diameter
anyway, my fatass is loading up the end bearing too much so it doesnt matter there are four, is my theory
yeah thats all i could think off, but theyre prob a bitch to flush because the seals
naw man i have 180mm cranks and long gearing and i weigh 220lbs and these are race parts
for 120 lb riders
but im faster than everyone else at school!
significantly, im kind of like wtf guys
its $30 per set
the first was redline, matched for my cranks
these are another brand, feels the same way
mad tick once per rev
and my bike doesnt really creak, barely hear the chain over the pawls
not much

Posted by renesis at 12:33 | permalink | 0 comments

yeah thats how series ferrites work
you design in a 0R or 100R or some shit, so i can replace that with a ferrite if esd gun blows shit up
blackmoon: series resistance usually works a lot better than ferrites, on the shit i do at least
like, 1k right after the coupling cap kill most everything if a cap before, like even just 100pf, long as other traces arent to close theyll spark gap,
but 1k is huge with like ~10k input impedances, 1dB hit to your signal, why 100R is more common, doesnt always work

Posted by renesis at 12:20 | permalink | 0 comments

on inputs, digital and analog, you often see a ton of stuff for ESD protection
unstuffed diodes and shunt caps
lots of stuff has spark gaps, if those work no one will populate anything
i think prob most my design work in the wild in related to ESD protection, heh
its usually a trial, error, repair, repeat thing, for maybe dozens of arc disrcharge points, so usually ends up being the techs job
so like, if you dont give me the pads i need so i can have your board reworked, and i prove that my change works better or available options dont, you have to rev the PCB

Posted by renesis at 12:15 | permalink | 0 comments

essentially youre trying to create low pass filters with knees above your operating frequency
so because the capacitance is a huge variable, exact resistance needs to be calculated with estimates parasitic capacitance
or you start high and tweak until it affects your signal, then back off
also, pulldowns are loading the outputs of the transmitter(s)
which can be good or bad depending on its spec
increased load could slow the system down
however that may decrease overshoot through your transmission lines, so making the thing slower might not be bad
yeah man add anything you think might be useful
on digital stuff, lots of boards i seen have RC on *every* input
almost never stuffed, but there are usually pads for it there and around board to board connectors

Posted by renesis at 12:10 | permalink | 0 comments

readerror: it maybe depends on whats connected to it, like if someone else powers up first and is hard wired to the inputs, you can get away with out them usually
but in general its a good practice, if the logic gates connect to something critical or fragile, you def want the pulldowns/ups in the design
even if you dont stuff on the PCB, you want the pulldowns there, for example to debug the system in parts and not worry so much if an output goes hi-z
yeah it doesnt matter so much if its just serial com
adding resistors at the end that pull a decent amount of current may make the system more immune to noise or a ringing issue
series resistance can accomplish the same, you mostly want to think in terms of partasitic capacitance in your system
like, youre going to have capacitance between shield and center, or between twisted pairs
youre going to have capacitance between the traces and surrounding ground elements

zeeshan: hi, fuck off!
anyway, AES club has maybe 40 members, prob two dozen show up
im one of two engineering majors, and the other guy is a softy
this AES = knob twisters =)
should be fun than hanging out with the eng geeks

yeah lots of RF shit i seen, just a PCB with a pill transistor on the bottom, bolted to giant heatsink
wtf @ flux and paste sandwich
clearly this is not a production oriented process
haha, do not use the delrin because itll melt

Posted by renesis at 07:37 | permalink | 0 comments

they only shot it running for about 10 seconds each time
and the copper on that board is effectively a heatsink, tons of surface area
also i think its just a test fixture, usually those tabs are soldered on RF transistors
well, if its AB theres two of them
so 600W at zero efficiency
so about 300W in the chip
300W is nuts but for 10 seconds on a thick copper PCB, giant substrate tabs, huge ceramic block to minimize thermal shock
like, it doesnt seem totally unreasonable
its very likely its extremely underrated for voltage just so they can pump other specs
also i dont think their gear measured distortion in any way, for their normal use control test
also we dont know how the power source reacts to being shorted, it could drop the fuck out

Posted by renesis at 07:32 | permalink | 0 comments

sustained shorting then doing 120W output like whatever is pretty nice
i love how they call an open load very transistor unfriendly
then short it out, with no mention of unfriendliness
er, 1200W output
gpf: heh, non-stock at digikey, $290/ea

ha, im on the same server as the bot

yeah im not really trying to be a welder
i like my eyes, and my hair
and my skin, and my lungs
rab: and shouldnt he already be able to school me on welding?
i prob have under 40 hours of experience
and hes already proclaimed his expertise

Posted by renesis at 06:20 | permalink | 0 comments

i guess i should take this opportunity to point out that zee sucks at electronics, and that im good at electronics, and clearly this makes zee a lesser human being who now has no credibility or experience in anything
gotta hold up appearances
this aint dalnet

Posted by renesis at 06:13 | permalink | 0 comments

nice, we do
like, were graded partially on how straight our bead, and i cant even see the gaps and seams im welding
its a butt weld too so its not like i have a vert section to reflect the arc for reference
i kind of assume theyre the same thing
anyway, continuity test solves that questions in a couple seconds

Posted by renesis at 06:07 | permalink | 0 comments

its an isolated unregulated supply
ground it where you connect ground on the secondary side
blackmoon: wiring description is for a dual primary transformer
if its not isolated someone got hella creative, heh
welding in class is annoying, all the masks are fucked up dirty and were only going to weld for a few weeks, not worth buying my own gear
i totally had a mask gloves and jacket but i forgot them in my locker at exschool
i dont even know if we have one actually
