I picked up a Kunkin KP184 this last year, and it does nicely for testing those

I was just now catching up with my LEGO Ideas e-mail (I went through my
cctech mail first :) and see that the Women of Computing set was put
together and proposed by the same woman who did the Women of NASA set.
As far as my wife, she is active in two local LEGO user groups and was

There's allot of masojinisitc crap in the system though.. I hear about it

LEGO is not doing this. This is part of the LEGO Ideas program, ideas
for LEGO sets submitted by the LEGO user community. Someone proposes a
set to the community and, if it gets 10,000 votes from the community,
LEGO will consider making an official set out of it. Other examples of

It's Fritz Mueller's blog; at about the top of this page:

I accept that far less women than men work in computing.
I believe however that this is large due to their own perception of the
industry and their career choices.
Almost all the women I know would describe working in it as "sad" or "geeky"
and several of them are married men who do work in IT.

False. Women still do not play 'an equal role' in STEM today, and did
not in the 20th C either. Have you eve
A very, very long time ago, when dinosaurs still roamed the earth (or at least
the computer rooms) there was a guy on usenet who called himself "Altair Bob"
and offered to buy Altair computers. This was back when they weren't worth all
that much (mid to late 1980s). He must have bought a dozen
If u hunt around u can find similar switches in e-waste or even new. Then
make some baskets u can attach. Like they did or if u got patience u can
take those right apart and rebuild as the pins sit in a cardboard like
material the plastic switch slides on with metal inserts for making
contact. Nee
I've decided it's time to fix my second pdp8/L. First one is missing (I
think it's at the bottom of the closet) so I'll work on this one for awhile.
First problem: Testing the lamps and switches. If the switches don't
work or the lamps are out it's not going to be easy to troubleshoot.

Woke lego?? What lego has been at fore front of this idea of being open to
all for a long time so woke hah no being there as a community of growing

It’s sad, but I understand the reason why they are doing it. Lego has always
been a bit progressive - even going as far as in commercials that girls can
play with legos too.
Unfortunately, the ones t

Using the term ‘woke’ these days is a great way to render any point you are

I'm curious what your definition of 'woke' is, because it seems grossly

The correct answer is women and men in computing within some sort of
historical context so that it does not seem like the fact that a person
happens to be a woman that they're being featured rather than due to their
actual accomplishments.
