Etymology
The specific epithet is derived from Latin dap (meaning sacrifice).
gollark: I assume I could probably work something out via ComputerCraft and cycling drives out every 15 minutes for moving stuff around.
gollark: I imagine it'd cause exciting problems if any autocrafting ran while defragmentation did, but you know.
gollark: One day I'm going to figure out some way to properly defragment these stupid drives... they're used SO inefficiently right now.
gollark: Anyway, I think the SSD was my inspiration for the massively scaled-down version running my systems.
gollark: Madness.
