gollark: So I thought it would be funny if potatOS shipped with a program to factor primes for you.
gollark: And it asks you to factorize a prime number, for purposes. This is extremely easy, but some people don't think to look it up.
gollark: * uninstall
gollark: Well, I was discussing the potatOS install thing with someone.
