It was originally known as Shadow Effects and was shot on location in Sydney, Canberra and the mining town of Broken Hill. It was a pilot for an unmade TV series.[2]
gollark: ApioServ is a full-featured replacement for the nonfunctional "atheme" instance you ran, written in Nim and using my great* implementation of the ngircd server to server protocol.
gollark: Also ApioServ, not that that's operating right now.
gollark: Anyway, there's a program which sends system load/CPU/RAM use alerts on APIONET somewhere from the HNode™, the RSAPI IRC interface for IncDec/now playing/nothing else whatsoever, Testbot, and AutoBotRobot's IRC interfacing.

gollark: I think I operate something like four things you can technically call IRC bots now.
