gollark: It's entirely possible that I already did that and forgot, given that I do have that python-based "virus" code lying around.
gollark: It's not like they'd notice.
gollark: I really should have had my submission secretly open a reverse shell thing over SPUDNET (and alert me when doing so) so that I could try and exploit the sandbox system in the few minutes before ubq gets bored and kills it.
gollark: Well, we didn't have computers until 1950ish, and we didn't have portable computers good enough to run reasonable note things until 1990ish.
gollark: However, this is !!PHYSICAL!! and !!EXISTS!! thus bad.
