gollark: Luca_S, regarding your shop thing: consider EnderMail.
gollark: The actual system logic is mostly offline but it will throw tons of errors when it tries to check for updates and such.
gollark: It *can* run without an internet connection, it just might complain.
gollark: The biggest challenge would probably be making PotatOS *not* just assume internet connectivity; a lot of it assumes it can just randomly fire off HTTP requests.
gollark: Anyway, PotatOS for x86 would also ship with emulated peripherals if I can somehow make that work, for things like modems (would be translated into multicast UDP packets or something), speakers (probably not with the actual MC sound library), and disk drives.
