Recent changes (within the past 2 decades) have made it possible to reinstate copyright as a third party, meaning it can be set long past the author's death.

You won't violate copyright by making your own. Problems only occur when you try to sell them.

The english equivalent is "Putting the cart before the horse" which, as far as I can tell is a pretty direct translation, but it retains its meaning well enough.

Sorry, no. Copyright extends nearly indefinitely into the future.

Writing a CAS is a big job. I still think you're better off porting something like Sage, whose source, by the way, is 319 MB. It's totally legal to do so, and it would be far easier than making one yourself. It would also be extendable (internal package system), and have a much larger support base thanks to the sage community.

I don't think it's that big of a deal, personally. At least they didn't set it up to check every file to make sure it's valid.

That's true too. Thanks to a faster opcode caller or something, right?

Yeah, I know about the port.
Didn't know about the subforum, but oh well.
BTW I just banned a cheetah127 for using a flyhack. If that was a mistake, let me know. I got word from a friend about it, and the server log was complaining about him "moving wrongly"

I can't say I'll be the most reliable player on the server, but I should get on fairly often.

Anything you put in the startup folder will run on boot. Not sure if that's what you meant, but it's a good start.

Well, depending on how much backwards compatibility require, you could technically say that the advancement in processor design IS that process.
Heck, there's even an improved CPU called the ez80. Backwards compatible mode, but also its own instruction set, and it goes up into 50 MHz.

I can run a video of crysis....  I wonder how hard it would be to get a VNC client running. That would enable a lot of really cool tricks.

ThePenguin's greyscale programs are awesome. He generally includes a delay adjust option so you can tune it to your calculator's update frequency.
You probably haven't done much greyscale outside of axe parser. It's much harder to get smooth greyscale in axe than in assembly.

Kerm doesn't have trouble replacing Ribbon cables on the 83+. He fixes those all the time. It's the 84+ he has trouble with, since the cable is much smaller. It's about 30 AWG wire spacing, from what I understand. See this post on cemetech.DJ, you can use standard flat screwdrivers inside the torx set. Oh, by the way, that's almost definitely a ribbon cable problem. Doesn't sound like a cracked screen at all. Cracked screens are more easily identified by the fact that they leak fluid. It's a fairly distinctive effect. What you're seeing, from what I understand, is a communication problem between the LCD's driver and the display itself. (Well, sort of, the hardware is kind of complicated) Point is, the symptom you describe is a classic example of ribbon cable failure.
