gollark: So I guess... add an IPC mechanism of some sort?
gollark: PotatOS has no IPC mechanism, so I just bodge it a lot of the time with queueEvent and stuff.

gollark: I would recommend CraftOS-PC or CCEmuX for maximum Potatocompatibility™.
gollark: I'm still not entirely sure what you mean by that, but sure.
