@ps I'm not sure how I feel about edit. I see the value, of course, but at the same time there are some implications (Which reply pertains to which edit? Is the full edit history shown? Does an edit remove current comments?) I'd like to gather some more feedback about whether this additional complexity fits Station. Open to both sides. · 6 months ago
Thanks, could you make edit feature one time? · 6 months ago

So, Queen City BBS went down early this morning. Not sure if it was related to the solar activity. My last logs for the server showed it went down after a routine poll around 04:30 EDT and has been since restored to full operation 08:30EDT.

Choosing a favorite is a nigh-impossible task for me, so I'll share what I'm currently reading instead: "The Difference Engine" by William Gibson and Bruce Sterling. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/337116 · 6 months ago
