Anderson said "'Blackout' came from a conversation we were having about boys... hot boys! It is about a desperate desire and wanting something so badly and so passionately, you just have to have it now! The 'blackout' is that intense secret moment between you and that person, and nothing else matters."[2]

gollark: My server also uses an unencrypted disk because it needs to be able to boot without human intervention.
gollark: My desktop's disk *used* to be encrypted, but I was lazy when reinstalling the OS a while ago so I don't *now*.
gollark: My laptop boots in 25 seconds from pressing the power button off my cheap SATA SSD, but that's counting the time-to-usable-desktop, the firmware is quite slow, and I have to enter the disk encryption key and my user password.
gollark: Yes, in raw sequential IO, but I don't think they're massively faster for random read/writes.
