Broomtown, Alabama

Broomtown is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in Cherokee County, Alabama, United States. As of the 2010 census, its population was 182.[5] It was named after Chief Broom (Broomstown) of the Cherokee Nation, who occupied the area from the late eighteenth century into the 1830s.[6] The Cherokee migrated southwest under pressure from European-American encroachment, before being driven out of the Southeast on the Trail of Tears to Indian Territory west of the Mississippi River.

gollark: Also, I think making up a dedicated assembly thing is basically the *point* of asm2bf, instead of some bizarre implementation detail like in Go.
gollark: > asm2bf has its own assembly languageIt's an esolang. Sanity and stuff don't count.
gollark: I think they are working on some codegen changes somewhere.
gollark: > Rust has llvm, which is kinda worse than an own asm because it's not even original and not even real asmIt's *better*, since it's actually used in other things and they did not make up their own for some bizarre reason.
gollark: Hmm, yes, apparently Linux has a monotonic clock thing available.
