IF-sentence was totally wrong. Per se. (IF (< A B)) (THEN C ELSE D) looks about right. This is about readability, all else stays the same. You can avoid the minute overhead of "(" by not using it on a critical situation.

This is always annoying to read as they wasted ")" to some shit. "(" should be: Push next word to X-stack ")" should be: pop and execute top of X-stack. So "(+ m n)" is equal to "m n +" And

If you have plan, execute it NOW, don't wait for the retirement. I have saved 70-old fatties in the Arctic, who think they have finally time and money fulfill their dreams.

If you are interested some particular reddit group and teddit.net is "too slow", can set a script to curl that url at some moderate interval. Every 60 minutes seems to be enough for instant access.

I have not had flu for 50 years. This was because I learned nasal flushing in the hippie-days of 1970's. There has been some days of unusually severe nasal irritation in past few years. That is why I have also added drops of Povidone(a

Albeit that would be the way to end all wars. As humans cannot fight against superior robots. So all wars will become drone wars. And eventually all parties realize why waste time to build real robots, we can do it in CS:GO.

Come on son. I replaced tube-based Russian missile control with 8080 microprocessor while in the Finnish Army 1978. Rumour is that this solution was field-tested in Afghanistan when Russians made KR580VM80A-processor.

No worries. I already revised my plan. I would 3D-print Raspberry-based submersible, which would find sea bottom and then proceed South-East from Suuri-Pisi and magnetically recognize metallic oblong object. Only problem is the availabilit

"Soviet Block" maybe the correct expression. I (somehow) enjoyed subtle nuances they injected in opposition of Soviet Rule. But it did not go unnoticed. I remember very particular Russian TV-series about Arctic Explorers on Finnis

Has anybody tried original books but translated by Google? Some Eastern Bloc Literature is suffering from bad translations, because artsy or political ambitions of woke westerns commies. Solaris in particular.

Pound/Euro is wobbling within regular limits. So this is Euro crisis, long overdue, because Eurocrats do not follow their own rules and use euromoney to save PIGS-countries.

CLP-310 motherboard is 45€ on Aliexpress. It might be that by replacing this you can produce a new "maiden" machine. Easy job. I once took CLP-310 apart and then realized that only thing broken was the thermostat on the drum heate

BTW. Worth mentioning is that CLP-310 has to be quite new still using its maiden cartridges. Those were chipless and allow only 1000 prints. But you can reset this counter by shorting certain pins and then fill those cartridges 4ever .

Samsung CLP-310 was the last one you can buy color toner in one liter bottles from Ebay for 10€. Filling those cartridges yourself is messy business. The powder is almost like liquid and stains everything.
