While we normally post news about Civ and other related games which are of interest for the community from this account, we’d not like to use this place for a request for help: Our friends over at https://alphacentauri2.info/ #AlphaCentauri are in need of technical assistance, and we’re asking our community here if anyone has experience with the #LAMP stack and some hours time to spare to help them out.
