gollark: Interestingly enough, some weeks ago the Random Stuff API was rewritten to use asyncio instead of the horrible gevent bodge it used to use for much of its history.
gollark: It doesn't do metadata yet.
gollark: ABR is of course AutoBotRobot, my Discord bot. It has its own OIR™ feature, and so it connects to icecast to pull a relatively current stream.
gollark: The Random Stuff API also connects to *this*, for reasons (it used to do more with this, but that got split out into ircsysmon), and broadcasts the current track into a dedicated #o channel also bridged to the Test 2 Discord guild, which a bunch of my stuff runs in.
gollark: Onto the other bits of the diagram. ngircd is an IRC server, and the osmarks.net instance of this participates in APIONET.
