Hi All,
Had to phone the govertment 'help' line, I swear they have taken the Brazil method, the voice recognition is c**p, the older systems of press '1', '2','3' for a set of options with '9' for none of the above worked (not well, but better than the voice recognition). I don't think I have a very heavy accent, I am starting to wonder. It seems you need a number, that comes from a form you need the number from. Leading to the call that cuts off...

If so, you may be entitled to condensation.

I don't see what you did there.

funny ...
and it sucks, but not just condensation, but my glasses slides off the masks.
I'd rather be phishing!

That leads to speculation.

That thing up there to the left a bit. Latest news, jokes, etc.
More often than not it just says "no messages found". This has bugged me for a while as I always like to keep up with the jokes posted in here.
So, why it always breaking? I assume there is an acceptable reason for it otherwise I expect it would have been fixed long ago.

Ok, just did.
I would have posted in there originally, but it feels like it's been a problem for so long that I figured somebody would just have a logically reason for why it happens and it wasn't considered a bug.

Well that's annoying! I'd never noticed the 'latest posts' thing, until you said.... And now I keep trying it - and getting "no messages found".
This is functionality that I didn't know about until 5 minutes ago. And it's now a matter of loaf and death, Gromit. I need it fixing.

Quest Super Elf Single Board 1802 basierte Mikrocomputer-Vintage OVP - | eBay[^]
It's just the basic, unexpanded computer. Looks like all optional parts are installed, but it's still just the basic computer. I probably would get a little more for my old Elf II. Don't I have the expansion board for this Super Elf lying around here? It was in bad shape when I got it. All ICs are gone, but should be obtainable. The two S-100 slots look intact, but the IC sockets are worn out and the capacitors are crumbling away. Desoldering practically everything may be a little hard on the old circuit board, but with it the Super Elf could go for at least twice as much.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Do you think US $700 is a reasonable price?
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

For that same price I can buy a computer that actually works, so no

Well, it used to cost about 100 - 150 $ in 1978. Account for inflation and we are not so far off. These computers were not built by millions and by now there should not be too many left. So, if you are a collector...
Not that I ever would sell my old Elf II. I had to scrape the mony together on a monthly 'income' of about 20$ (plus mercenary work, like mowing lawns).

Why refer to ebay as fleabay? I presume that it is an insult? I have gotten lots of good things on ebay. I don't like how much they charge to sell things and I don't like that they took over half.com and got rid of it, but that's not enough to use a derogatory name. At least not enough for me to do it.

Maybe it's just supposed to mean that the stuff on sale there is flea-bitten.

Some of it is, I'm sure, but there's tons of good stuff on there.
