Reminds me of "pykrete" which was also a potential construction material for ships (notably aircraft carriers) proposed during WWII:

Works for ChatGPT!

Something like Feynman's algorithm:

1. Write down the problem.

2. Think very hard.

3. Write down the solution.

It's essentially saying that you start with an outline, then progressively fill in the sections, iterating and providing more detail at each iteration. I do something similar, which is why I prefer to work in outline mode (e.g. in MS Word) as it is the most flexible and "minimalist" mode for structured writing.

Sounds like Scratch:

You could just use RISC OS on the PI for BBC Basic.

Wasn't it because Jack Tramiel was too cheap and just wanted to make use of his existing MS BASIC licence?

Fonts are generally included in DOS applications, but the point of a "writerdeck" is to be distraction-free, hence no need for wifi.

Why not just use DOS? e.g.:

At least the laptops that can still run DOS natively tend to have fairly good keyboards...

Not to forget the Orion Pictures logo:

You're not thinking fourth-dimensionally!

It's also a notoriously difficult experiment to perform. When I did it at university, the value of G I got was out by an order of magnitude - and that was considered a good result!

Moksha (a fork of e17) is the main desktop for Bodhi Linux, an unofficial Ubuntu-based distro:

They're up to e27 now, it even supports Wayland.

Or just install Win10 IoT LTSC, which is supported until 2032.

Or a "De Gaulle Apology Form":

It was suggested again in 1956 in the context of the Suez crisis:

Sadly even Cyber Yugoslavia is no more, it only shows the text "juga.com" now:

I don't think it was concern about relative status, more the risk that a reunited Germany could once again become a significant economic/military power that could threaten the stability of Europe.

Note that this provides a 32-bit version of Debian Trixie for those who are interested.

> the pre-WW2 television broadcasts. Most of these were broadcast in the London area and practically nowhere else. Almost no one had recording equipment back then and they were often broadcast live.

The "Phonovision" recordings made by Baird (which were unplayable at the time) have been recovered:

I see what you did there...

Private healthcare exists alongside the public system in many places.

Is he?
