History
South Fork began in 1913. By 1923 there were 3 grain elevators, a lumber yard, cafe, blacksmith, pool hall, feed mill, and general store.
A fire in 1928, the depression, and better roads started South Fork on a decline. South Fork is best known for its sole resident, a bearded man by the name of Nicholas Herlinger.
The last grain elevator closed in 1974 and moved to an area farm.
gollark: Maybe stick a small RISC-V core on the FPGA to do general BF preprocessing, then have a main block which runs optimized BF bytecode.
gollark: Yes, just make an optimizing BF interpreter thing on an FPGA.
gollark: The first one might be slow, I think FPGAs take a while to reprogram?
gollark: I mean, either works, but I was thinking an on-FPGA interpreter.
gollark: Yes, that.
