Right, battery on my Master replaced (by a 2x2 AA holder with one slot soldered out and heatshrunk and taped to the old plate.
Took me a while to figure out how to do all the CMOS resetting, there's a page at the back of the manual with the defaults; and a more forceful reset. I'd forgotten about the ability to 'unplug' ROMs and it took me a while to figure out that's where BASIC had gone.

Product sets in sets of returns and positivity of symmetric ergodic averages
Vitaly Bergelson, Sa\'ul Rodr\'iguez-Mart\'in
https://arxiv.org/abs/2608.02873 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2608.02873 https://arxiv.org/html/2608.02873
arXiv:2608.02873v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: We study sets of (measurable) returns in countable groups $G$, namely sets of the form $\{g\in G:\mu(A\cap T_gA)>0\}$ arising from measure-preserving actions. Extending a result of Bergelson, we show that sets of returns in $G\times G$ contain subsets of the form $B\times B$, where $B$ is large with respect to suitable notions of largeness that remain meaningful even for non-amenable groups. As a consequence, if $G$ is amenable, then every sufficiently large subset $A\subseteq G\times G$ satisfies $B\times B\subseteq AA^{-1}$ for some large set $B\subseteq G$.
We also investigate when sets of returns in $G$ contain product sets $BB$ with $B$ large. In contrast with the Cartesian-product phenomenon above, this problem is considerably subtler in non-abelian groups and is closely connected to `symmetric correlation functions', namely functions of the form $g\mapsto \mu(T_g^{-1}A\cap T_gA)$. We use this connection to show that, for broad classes of amenable groups - including finitely generated nilpotent groups and certain solvable non-nilpotent groups, every sufficiently large set $A\subseteq G$ contains a large subset $B$ satisfying $BB\subseteq AA^{-1}$.
Finally, we establish polynomial analogues of these results for finitely generated nilpotent groups, extending earlier work of Bergelson and Ruzsa.
