       This is the proper way to console a child.

       Good to see that timely documentation was as important then as it is now.

       I think RFC 254 was due for a refresh. https://youtu.be/FQnE-nAxzmY

       Observe this totally realistic depiction of how you logged into ARPANET in 1980.

       Happy birthday PDP-10!  #OnThisDay 58 years ago, the PDP-10 was first powered on.  Whoopee, it goes!

       @xuxxux @amszmidt @pymander @jbaty My .emacs vibe is more like "if the defaults are good enough for rms, they are good enough for me".  75 lines total; no use-package.

       @xuxxux @amszmidt @pymander @jbaty In fact, half or so of my .emacs is to retain the pristine look and feel of Emacs 19.34.

       @twylo TUHS and @DoctorWkt started a project to recreate an historical UUCP network using 4BSD running on emulators. https://github.com/DoctorWkt/4bsd-uucp

       @twylo @vga256 I dunno, there's also ice cream-based OO.  Flavors with mixins.  Sounds pretty tasty.

       @qrios @troed This is the way.  Not impressed by the Unix stubble.  ^R is from the PDP-10; the beard is infinite.

       @ricci I hope the tape will be read, and the image made available to the public.  In my experience, CHM isn’t great about doing that with items in their collection.

       Forgive me, I learned English from the jargon file, so I can't tell idioms in general use from obscure PDP-10 references.  But that's exactly how I like it.
