gollark: It has bugs sometimes. Security bugs. People don't want to tell me them because i can patch them eventually, so they release obfuscated versions. So I have a bunch of potatOS tools to allow me to infer what they interact with without having to actually analyze them completely.
gollark: You know potatOS?
gollark: I actually deal with this a decent bit for potatOS exploits.
gollark: You don't have to. Just look at the IO.
gollark: Not that I'm particularly *good* at reverse engineering, but I can write... the windows equivalent of LD_PRELOAD things eventually maybe.
