No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks, guys! These changes should improve the stability, scalability, and security of the board.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I don't say enough how grateful I am and how in awe I am of the programming of this board. It's ruined me for lesser boards.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

It has me too, and when it begins behaving like other boards do, I realize how very spoiled I've become.

Because books.

I ... don't go to other boards! I did, once upon a time, and this one, once I showed up, blew it away. Both in tech and maintenance *and* community, I will note.

What they all said - about ita, that is. Rockstar of the highest order.

What she said! :: puts on dancing shoes to join the "ita is a rockstar dance".

The status is NOT quo.

This! I can't believe how fast the board is now! Whee!!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I should have taken speed metrics. It feels faster to me, but I have no idea if that's based on anything but new-code-relief-itis.

Thanks again, guys, for the testing and the compliments.

I went into the Bugtracker app and closed out all the extant bugs. If they re-occur, please enter them there. I wanted a clean slate.

The app also allows you to submit feature requests and ideas, so feel free to register there and enter bugs, ideas, or requests there.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

It's far faster -- I've been posting messages and NOT waiting to see them appear because when I look, they're already there. And the rest of my internets are pretty laggy today.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Good. I was wondering if you'd do that.

And I must agree that subjectively the board is much faster. It's beauteous.
