gollark: With some lazy gsubbing in potatOS it should, however, be possible to support lööps backwards-compatibly (mostly) *and* with terrible messages.

gollark: And on potatOS it should be possible to actually transfer lööps to some sort of Potato Cloud to escape shutdown.
gollark: You can terminate them but they'll run in the background.
gollark: If it works well enough potatOS could gain native `lööp` support though.
