gollark: I'm not sure about "deserve", and I'm not sure if it is actually a jail-time-causing thing, but there was that thing where he tweeted about Tesla's share price.
gollark: Is there other stuff other than the share price tweet thing?
gollark: A society with access to the computers and software necessary to decode the bee movie would also likely have the movie itself anyway. So you should put an archive of various software and technical documentation on too.
gollark: Ah, but flash memory loses data if it's left unpowered pretty fast. ~~He~~ You overthought the wrong bit of it. Blu ray discs would be better.
gollark: Though websites being bloated messes packed with inefficient programming, JS all the time for no reason, and ads doesn't help. My site is optimized for load speed, and I got core stuff down to about 20kB a page and do aggressive service worker caching, but most sites do *not* do this.
