usenet

so nice

The announcement of google groups abandonning usenet made me recall that I hadn't been on there in quite some time. I checked and my eternal-september account is still active, so I took the opportunity to setup gnus in emacs (it was on my list anyway). I have reread comp.infosystems.gopher from 2014 to 2019 (where I just left off... will continue). I have subscribed to some other groups as well. I need to surf through the master list at some point and see what looks interesting.

I am traveling to Canada today. Last trip of the year. I should have plenty of time available to do the above.
