Tenpyō-jingo (天平神護) was a Japanese era name (年号,, nengō,, lit. "year name") after Tenpyō-hōji and before Jingo-keiun. This period spanned the years from January 765 through August 767.[1] The reigning empress was Empress Shōtoku (称徳天皇). This was the same woman who had reigned previously as Empress Kōken (孝謙天皇).[2]

gollark: Not screens, probably wired networks, keyboards, or anything else.
gollark: Well, they can't, because they cost more, are annoying to make because microcrafting, and cannot connect to external peripherals.
gollark: Nobody will make an OC computer stand in for 20 CC ones because it defeats half the point of using CC computers as microcontrollers in the first place - complex logic and wireless control and whatnot can fit in one block.
gollark: Expensive computers I don't mind. The problem is OC's grindy microcrafting.
gollark: <@202992030685724675> Add CC back. Wanting a timesharing system (nobody will do this by the way) is not a good enough reason to remove it.
