Hello everyone, so glad to be here! Fabulous! Just fabulous! So great to see so many familiar names appear in the course of this thread… what a joy! And many many thanks for the people making this place possible, foremost @LockeCJ, and everyone else volunteering to moderate. So many things to catch up!

(I didn’t write much on the other site, and didn’t even have a profile picture, but changed that as one of my last actions over there.)

Looks like this drive is now in regular service, as the old one rapidly spins down.

I feel like I’ve just arrived at a large party with some familiar faces and I’m quietly wandering from room to room, smiling, nodding and maybe silently raising a glass to those I know, but not saying much. That’ll change once I’ve recovered from the journey ~ the last week has been quite a ride, including realising just how important this group has become to me. I’m not a big contributor but I learn a lot and it’s somewhere I feel welcome.

Anyway, nice party, talk soon!

No, it’s a Compucorp 142 “Statistician”. I saw it displayed in an exhibition on a university campus, and had to take a picture of it since I am a statistician, too.

I could still find him on the BBS, but it’s read only now and there isn’t any contact information in the user profile. So, no way to send a message.

PMs still work for some reason, but only if a conversation was started before the shutdown, and I never had an exchange with Euansmith. Maybe somebody else had, an can contact them?

Why is my brain parsing it as Dogbutter.
