AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the creation of a retro encabulator, which is presented humorously as a complex and nonsensical invention. Participants express amusement at the absurdity of terms like "logarithmic casing" and "differential girdlespring," highlighting the parody of technical jargon often found in sales pitches. There is speculation about the potential for misunderstanding among the general public regarding the legitimacy of such inventions. The conversation also touches on the idea that if the retro encabulator were real, it would be a significant achievement, particularly in overcoming common issues like "side fumbling." The release date is humorously suggested to be April 1st, reinforcing the comedic nature of the discussion.

:smile: That's funny. What a load of BS! Logarithmic casing!

Oh man, this is priceless.
 
Some day I hope I can illustrate my explanations with such persuasive, articulate hand gestures.

Captain, our 'Unilateral phase detractors are automatically capable of synchronizing cardio gram-meters!' Power is not generated by the relative motion of conductors and fluxes, but is produced by the modial of magneto reluctance and capacitive duractance!'

:smile:
 
Those thieving bastards! I invented that thing ten years ago and never got to patent it because I couldn't find a backer.
 
If they haven't seen it, the guys at Rockwell are going to love this.

It definitely sounds like one of their sales pitches!
 
Differential girdlespring? Drawn reciprocation dingle arm? Awesome! I want one!
 
:smile::smile::smile:

I wonder what % of the population would think that this is legit and just have no clue what the person is talking about. Man, that was an awesome parody.

Maybe it's real maybe it isn't. but if they've really managed to get 6 hydrocoptic marzyl veins feeted to the ambithazion lunar wang shaft they are genius, because every single retro encabulator I've come across has suffered from terrible side fumbling.

My favourite bit was his description of how 'side-fumbling was effectively prevented'.
