gollark: Anyway, PotatOS Advanced Projects™ actually does quite a lot of stuff. There's also GTech's Antimemetics Division, which works on it a fair bit (primarily the Microsoft-branded edition, as part of our partnership with Microsoft/Vartax), PotatOS Cloud-Scale Blockchain/AI Quantum Agile Disruptive Engineering (web APIs), PotatOS Paralegalistics (works on stuff like the privacy policy and SCP-2791), [LEVEL 5 CLEARANCE REQUIRED] (Project TANTALUM IGUANA), PotatOS ⬡, and many other teams working on potatOS.
