1. The forum & main site will stay up indefinitely after MTurk shuts down in case anyone needs anything. I assume a handful of things will break after MTurk vaporizes & I'll fix it as fast as I can to keep the two main parts of the site online.

    oh wow @Corvid was here earlier, hi if you see this! I still wonder what @MmmTurkeyBacon is doing these days, and the other people who inspired me or helped me or in some cases wrote entire scripts for me to ham batches especially prior to 2020. if any of you stop by and see this post, I'm sure I will still be thinking of you in the future!
