Notes
    gollark: You can also launch a denial of service attack by unplugging the power or coaxial/phone/ethernet cable.
    gollark: I was just explaining for foolish apioids who do NOT know that.
    gollark: * composed purely of horrendously apiaristic forms
    gollark: My router's web interface sends some sort of horrible XPath RPC stuff *in JSON* *in a form body* to a backend which then sends back some weird JSON looking like this, which is, I think, a general indication of its code quality.
    gollark: Are the botnets targeting routers not enough for you?
