MVP by edition
gollark: * internet chat
gollark: I assume it wouldn't be something like 30 years behind. They had web chat in the 1990s right?
gollark: Possible and practical.
gollark: My view on technological advancements like the internet is that when they're possible they'll get invented a lot mostly regardless of some special talent or circumstances somewhere.
gollark: I know.
