gollark: And it draws that whole taskbar thing at the bottom *just* for the `start` button, since this "OS" is monotasking and doesn't actually have windowing support at all.
gollark: The `settings` option doesn't work, `programs` is only Paint and LuaIDE, and there's no way to get a shell except the `run` button.
gollark: Also, you're doing fake loading bars in startup, which is basically evil.
gollark: Onto what seems to break it, it looks like the paste you download as `/os/google/google` or whatever is no longer available, and your downloader program does not actually detect this.
gollark: I'm still looking at the other files, since there are a lot.
