gollark: You should invite *my* bot! It has features like fortunes, arbitrary code execution, reminders, a delete command, and "telephone" calls!
gollark: My bot is very well-designed™ and just sends the entire error message in chat whenever there's an exception. Including traceback.
gollark: Starlink and probably future LEO satellites will allow even *lower* latency, which is neat.
