History

The United States took control of Puerto Rico from Spain in the aftermath of the Spanish-American War under the terms of the Treaty of Paris of 1898. In 1899, the United States conducted its first census of Puerto Rico finding that the combined population of Boca Velázquez and Descalabrado barrios was 1,083.[6]

gollark: This is very annoying. I'm trying to make a (mostly pointless, yes) IPv6 multicast chat thing, and after struggling with the mysterious errors from the socket syscalls, got it to bind properly (I think?) so that `socat - "udp6-sendto:[ff02::aeae]:44718"` makes it work, but apparently it won't work from my other device, even though they can ping each others' link local IPv6 addresses.

gollark: Well, keep them happy by just overwriting a random data structure or part of the kernel's code when it needs the space.
gollark: You can apparently use userspace OOM killer daemons in the meantime.
