This is not a BOINC problem but a crash of the wrapper app that SiDock uses. You're better off reporting it on their forums.

Check your spam folder. We get reports quite a bit of the *.berkeley.edu emails go to spam, these days.

Grumble... wonder if this is happening to anyone else on Gmail or other mail systems???
Guess why I am so late in responding to spam reports. ;-)

Your other problem will be to find a project that still has applications that run on that old hardware. I don't think there are any.
It's a 32bit CPU, isn't it? And an early one? 1997? I would do other things with it. There are channels on Youtube showing old hardware with period correct operating systems and programs and games.

The file controlling which projects you added and all is client_state.xml, you can copy this file to another computer and that computer will then immediately have the projects added that the first computer has.

Preferences when set via a project's website, are global. This means that you set them at one project and they will propagate to all other projects, if and when BOINC contacts them.

As for not receiving emails, if the help given by computezrmle doesn't fix things, check your email's Spam folder. My notifications from boinc.berkeley.edu arrive in there as well.

A handful of projects had applications for the Sun Fire CPUs, where the application was ported and built by a user, but he's no longer maintaining them, or the projects can't use the applications anymore due to incompatibilities, or the projects died out.

There are no specific language versions of BOINC Manager. Instead, BOINC Manager uses a language.po file, which gets its language updates from https://explore.transifex.com/boinc/boinc/, which is a site where users can update the language files.

Just saying, you can wait for the Norwegian updater to fix the typo, or you can make an account there and check if the typo is still in the newest version of the Norwegian translation, and if so, fix it yourself. Then it'll be updated in a future version of BOINC.

We had 22 parties we could choose from these last elections, of which only 15 managed to get enough votes for seats.
How these parties will now continue, you can best read at https://www.houseofrepresentatives.nl/elections, which is a lengthy process, can take a year.

Nah. Let's first see if the PVV gets into government, as almost all other (bigger) parties have ruled out to govern with them.
It should be a wake-up call, though. Because if they ignore this party and go form government without it, then the following elections, the PVV will become even bigger. Especially with these hateful flags being flown in demonstrations in the streets.

As you can read, this year they have a disclaimer about who they are, with a link and all.
They've probably posted it on all projects. If you still don't trust who they are or what they do, then just ignore them.
They've posted the same thing in the Projects sub-forum here.

You mean you set up a profile on this website, your profile and then View/edit profile?
Because if you do, that profile will only be set up on this website, it won't propagate to other project websites.
You have to set up your profile separately at all the projects that you want to have it at. We did have an automated website for that, but it was flooded with spammers, so it's been taken down.
