Description
The shell of this snail has a discoid shape with small transversal grooves and some granules scattered along the sutures. This brownish-yellow shell is somewhat concave at its base. The oblique aperture has an oval shape. The shell is characteristic by its horizontal stripe on the last body whorl and two stripes at its base.
gollark: I ran into some issues and now I'm seriously thinking about rewriting the potatOS sandboxing stuff.
gollark: I guess it doesn't matter much for my security model as it's only verifying signatures, but hmm.
gollark: Hmm, the existing ECC stuff which exists *isn't* constant-time? I suppose it does seem to have a decent amount of conditionals in it.
gollark: Which is entirely overkill as nothing actually generates keypairs or needs secure randomness at runtime.
gollark: The thing shipped with potatOS uses events, timing *and* memory addresses.
