gollark: I think just making kristpay send back to the return address in the meta would work, assuming there is one.
gollark: Couldn't you fix it?
gollark: It has a `ps` command, which takes arguments really unsafely (they're just passed to `system`), so you can do `ps ; sh -c`.
gollark: I do have a router lying around somewhere which allows root access to anyone who knows the password, because of an exploit I discovered while just fiddling around with its telnet interface.
gollark: Hmm, PotatOS on Routers? Interesting idea.
