gollark: Anyway, it *does* rely on my personal server, which is... not entirely reliable, but mostly works.You can host your own and connect to that though.
gollark: You just `require` it and can then do stuff like```luaskynet.send(channel, message)local channel, message = skynet.receive(channel)```
