gollark: How odd. I'll check CraftOS-PC.
gollark: You can now try an experimental new potatOS build. Do not expect things to work well.`set potatOS.distribution_server "https://osmarks.tk/stuff/potatos/manifest"``wget run https://osmarks.tk/stuff/potatos/autorun.lua`
gollark: (Note: please no)
gollark: Alternatively, you could run all the logic on the server and have the client send any event it receives to it via websockets!
