Notes
    gollark: Despite being obviously superior technology it had no adoption!
    gollark: SPUAMAI would be better if anyone actually *used* it.
    gollark: <@738361430763372703> Does this anger you?
    gollark: The "text to image API" seems good at making *something* coherent and realistic, but bad at making it the right thing.
    gollark: That makes sense.
