I have not had any emails from cctalk for 2 or 3 weeks. I went to my
subscription details and saw that emails were disabled for me. I re-enabled
them a few days ago but I still have not received any new emails. I can see
that there is traffic by looking at the archives, and if I am not

Right. The typical desktop scroll bar as thought of today, however,
like typical desktop windows and menus, are largely an Apple
refinement if not invention.
Those where already available
Icons for files, the "OK" and "Cancel" buttons, scroll bars, all kinds
of utterly basic stuff were invented at Apple.
Well, other than that it wasn't.

Sorry, I don't agree. It _is_ possible to write portable code, but even
ignoring that, the benfits of writing in a higher-level language (good

It boils down to pedantism. The encoding of the above is ASCII, and
the encoding type of a C program is

The whole "foo via cctalk" is *really* annoying... What is wrong with
a half default mailman setup? There is no Reply-To header there, From

Read the archive, it isn't peculiar to the gnu.org.
Two of the four ipv4 nameservers for gnu.org are broken. By those
odds, I would expect anything up to 50% of any mail you receive via
ipv4 to bounce.
Which has nothing to do with anything.
I gave you some hints in this direction the last time you mentioned you

Interesting... I still get the same errors. Could it be

Tried from Boston, and Stockholm, so I don't think so.

Yes, that is most annoying. My complaint (and I guess many more

The RICM just received $1,000 to buy a new oscilloscope. I would like a

be high because we usually work on ancient equipment.
What would you suggest?
Siglent or Rigol are good bang for the buck. Rigol has a
And if you break one you have to call HAZMAT. You did realize that,
didn't you? They contain mercury and any breakage requires professional
remediation by law!!
Uhm... No you don't. Stop the fearmongering please ...
You don't even need call the law if you break a mercury thermometer,
which is about 3-4 grams of mercury. A bulb has what, a few

stable one can just modify /etc/hosts to have a pdp-8.org address and
just mirror the result that way.

I said 3/50 because that is what the silkscreen says.
The silkscreen clearly says 3/60, you have a clear serial with a 5

Indeed! And if you do find a Lambda, then there would be quite a few
