Please do tell us what electronics design you are doing that involves this equipment or anything even closely related. For that matter, just tell us *anything* you're actually designing or have designed.

You seem to be simply a press release copy/paster.

Jan has contributed quite a lot of electronics to the group over the years. What did you contribute?

My news spool doesn't go back years, it only holds 30 days or so. In that time I just seem him copy/pasting press releases.

I already posted a list of stuff I'm working on in a previous discussion around his copy/paste press releases. I'm happy to discuss any of that.

The lad is heading for a stroke getting into such a state over usenet posts.

If you find his postings tedious put him in your killfile and move on.

I guess you're new to usenet. Policing off-topic posts has been a thing since the beginning.

It’s a blast from the past, though—who would have thought we’d see a real old-time netkop in 2026?

Gosh. Nasty.

Careful!

He'll pull on his leather chaps and give your buttocks a good spanking.

In the beginning, only civilized people knew of, and used, usenet. They were all polite, reasonable and knowledgeable. There were only a few groups and it was easy to follow and read *all* of it. We used the newsreader 'rn' over 4800 baud connections to a pdp-11 running Unix and a dumb VT100 terminal. The web didn't exist. Berners-Lee didn't even work at CERN yet.

Insecure? You bet! But security wasn't yet needed. Everyone cooperated to make things run better! There were hackers, sure, but they weren't malicious, just curious.

Those days are far behind us now. The pioneers have retired or died and rabble has taken over.

And most of the people that try to do it aren't all that good at it.

You guys are really inept at flaming.

It is sci.electronics.design not alt.flame.

You want to get flamed? Go someplace where the skill (such as it is) is taken seriously.

I dunno who or what you are but if you keep attacking me then I was thinking about advertising online for a lawyer or lawyer group that sues you and your boss for an amount that is similar to what happened to those google guys pestering some blogger. And this is not a closed group. All you have done do far is make trouble. Get the f*ck out of here. And if that does not work ;-)

Anyways kill file for you.

These netcops wouldn't dare be so nasty in real life. Somebody would take them out back and decorate them with blood, and they know it.

All true, but please don't insult the PDP-11. It was a beautiful machine.

Pity we went the barbaric 4004-8008-x86-windows route.

Imagine a PDP-11, or a 68k-like machine, running at 2GHz... Alas, money makes the choice, and it often chooses wrong.

Jeroen Belleman

I think here was a non-microcoded sorta-RISC version of the 68K.

I'm thinking that the future should be a 256 or 1024 or 4096 core RiscV on a chip. And a suitable new OS.

That's a bit OTT Jan, I'm sure Richard is a perfectly pleasant fellow in person.

Send him a couple of space cakes to take the edge off of things...
