gollark: See, thanks to it loading standardized XTMF tapes, instead of... having me hardcode the tracks on the computer or something... I can just put in tapes and it'll handle them fine.
gollark: `this tbh`ing yourself is unlegal.
gollark: In fact, it'll actually just load the two tapes it has whenever someone restarts it, soooo...
gollark: Also, the system eventually reinitializes itself with fewer tapes.
gollark: Stealing the tape means I can't enjoy it until I go through all the hassle of spending about 30 seconds making a new 32 minute tape and downloading the tape image on!
