Eternal September: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_September September was traditionally the time of new admissions in US collages and universitie. As a result of these institutes often being the first time many would gain access to Usenet September had areputation of clueless newbies flailing around until they either self selected out or adapted. In 1993 AOL gave their userbase Usenet access. Thus the term 'Eternal September' or 'The September that never Ends.'

Luser: Portmantu of Loser and User. Used Derisively in some online communities in the 90's to refer to new, and often clueless, users.

For the past thirty two years, and counting.

I was there at the beginning. Just a wee Luser. Such fun and wonderful times for eleven year old me to be punted into.

The way it looked to me is it would belong to 'no nation.' Which to me suggested a lawless real life magenpoor esque situation where you'dh ave defacto migrant slave labor in the slums and rich assholes upstairs doing whatever they like with their twelve year old mail order slave children shipped in from wherever.

Isn't it interesting how all these people who demand to have everyone else's data are suddenly uptight about having the same scruteny?

Do not let them walk this back. Do not let anyone forget that Trump wanted to turn Gaza into a state-less resort playground for the oligarchs.

Next issue releases in April. We switched to quarterly because, to be honest, there was editor burnout trying to scrape for content each month and the zine ended up being like... three articles. VERY underwhelming.

Gemini actually.

And the CSS for the http site is literally from ctrl-c's main page with a few values tweaked, as i didn't like fullblack on background, and I edited the widths a bit. I think.

SDF is kind of the grandaddy of it all. There is another system from 82, that is now under the care of SDF.
