1. made all threads "live" going back to the beginning! meaning bumping and replying are live in threads going back to 2004. *threads 90 days or younger will be added next and then everything will be seamless.
2. upgraded the search box. left-aligned, serious new options including date ranges and minimum number of poasts. results are limited to 1,000 but that's not a problem when you have these options.
3. "by you" goes back to the beginning, too.
4. some people requested quick sign-outs for privacy/security, so i made 24-hour persistence available with a "keep me signed in" checkbox at login. otherwise, sessions last 30 minutes by default.
5. debating whether to add a yubikey option in order to give you a fail-safe way to secure your account in case someone ever hijacked it or you left it out and your bratty stepson changed your password.
6. restored "ohnoes"'s account, which was banned about 300 years ago.
did much more behind the scenes but these are the big ones for today.
