Stewart Crossing

Stewart Crossing is a settlement in Yukon, Canada located on the Stewart River. It is about 179 km east of Dawson City on the Klondike Highway, near the junction with the Silver Trail, from which it is about 53 km (33 mi) southwest of Mayo. A Yukon government highway maintenance camp and a highway lodge are the most prominent facilities at Stewart Crossing. The settlement is named for where the Klondike Highway (or Mayo Road, as it was then known), crossed the Stewart River by means of a ferry from 1950 until completion of a bridge in the mid-1950s.

gollark: I've decided to switch to having 32 registers, so there should be room for useful* features like the metaprogramcounter.
gollark: It does mean that you need self-modifying code to subtract non-constant numbers, but such is the price of such elegance.
gollark: This is how I merged `MOV` (in the sense of "set register to fixed value") and `ADD`.
gollark: See, there are exactly 16 registers, one of which, r0, always contains 0, and one of which, rf, is the program counter, and many of the instructions take a 4-bit value representing which register to pull from.
gollark: <@!330678593904443393> You would pass it 6 register indices.
