With Kjetil Mulelid Trio
gollark: I imagine it could be done mostly automatically with sensors of some kind in the sewer and a way to infer who's in the relevant part of a house (phones maybe?).
gollark: Just write a program which receives a sorted list from the future and sends it to the past iff it contains all the elements you want and is sorted.
gollark: You could also do this with time travel if you have one of those always-consistent universes.
gollark: Great!
gollark: It's over there.
