Well for what it is worth, I build Emacs 31.1 on Slackware 15.0 and it has an odd issue. I get this message below but issuing that command does not fix it, the warning still appears. So either I need to move from ccrypt to a different enc

We need to define "older". All areas are old, but it is history that can make one area seem old. Of course I am ignoring Africa, the oldest of all in Human History. I think this thread is referring to record keeping. In Europe

I do not know what temacs is, but on Slackware 15 w/emacs-30.2, temacs does not exist. I wonder if temacs is something used in other operating systems ? I hope to upgrade to 31.1 on Slackware either today or tomorrow. I will grab the

Everywhere in the Wikipedia articles is this phrase "had Han ethnic origins". Looks like China Editors are trying to change history. At least that is based upon what the CNN article is saying.

Maybe Emacs 31.1 will be able to use OpenBSD's RCS Utilities. One can hope :) To use RCS with Emacs on OpenBSD, you need to install GNU's version of RCS (grcs). Congratulations to the team.

Yet another case that will waste the court's time and money. All this is doing is keeping defense lawyers pocket's lined. At this point, people should buy a burner phone when going to/from the US. In that phone only have a c

First it is only the South West area of the US, East of the Mississippi river and the Northwest has plenty of water. It is the fact that everyone wants to live and companies are moving to a desert that is causing the problem.

If you are in your 30s, I would think you would have a good chance to see that happen. To me, the big issue no one talks about will be people who live below say the Mason Dixon Line migrating north, probably starting maybe 50 or so years fr

You forget the huge bank bailouts caused by Bush's policies in 2008. That is why it spiked. Obama brought it down during his admin. Without that spending, the recession of 2008 would have been the same or worse as the depression of t

I do know why you were down-voted, maybe the swear. But yes, easy enough to stop them arrest the execs and block access to the area. All I can guess is that will happen if that company starts off-loading the equipment.
