The name is derived from Latin pilosus and refers to the dense patch of setae at the base of the male valva.
gollark: Fascinating.
gollark: What would it do?
gollark: Hmm, it must have handled the unicode very transparently then.

gollark: I was actually considering implementing a more full-featured attestation system in potatOS for the disks, including a chain of trust for signing key stuff (to avoid just having a single master key stored in Site Null on switchcraft) and revocations, but didn't do it.
