Crepicephalus is an extinct genus from a well-known class of fossil marine arthropods, the trilobites. It lived from 501 to 490 million years ago during the Dresbachian faunal stage of the late Cambrian Period.[1]

gollark: I should probably notify them about it somehow so they know to give me their soul, you're correct.
gollark: PotatOS's terms include the clause> This policy supersedes any applicable federal, national, state, and local laws, regulations and ordinances, international treaties, and legal agreements that would otherwise apply.so mine is.
gollark: It's not legally binding.
gollark: I can add that too? Neat.
gollark: The terms now say> By using potatOS, misusing potatOS, installing potatOS, reading code or documentation for potatOS, knowing about these terms, knowing anyone who is bound by these terms, reading these terms, or thinking of anything related to these terms, you agree to be bound by these terms.so that is not an excuse.
