The September that never ended

Today is 10,000 September 1993. For me, various computing things probably peaked in around the mid-nineties: an X client with ctwm and trn* was pleasant to use, one rarely needed to use % to e-mail via gateways, there was still plenty of signal among the noise, and Netscape supported HTML tables. I feel fortunate to have been online back then before the ocean of ignorance and exploitation.

*We also got Gnus 5 but I had not yet discovered it.

If you can yet vote in the American general election then today would be an excellent day to do so. We are fortunate to have the opportunity and the outcome can make an enormous difference to many people. If any help is needed, the parties' campaigns have plenty available.
