gollark: Hmm... I guess I can either avoid textutils.serialise or copy that table...
gollark: So the problem is in textutils.serialise being stupid and *not* my stuff?
gollark: Weird weirdness: this code snippet (https://pastebin.com/YWug4NUg).Two tables alone can be serialized fine. Stick them in one table and it errors ("can't serialize table with recursive entries").
gollark: <@184468521042968577> a CC one.
gollark: Terrible idea: a screen-sharing thing which sends a snapshot of the entire state of your computer to another one, executes it there, and sends back the changes.
