gollark: I think you would just have to AND the result afterward. It would not be very efficient.
gollark: Idea: if I get Minoteaur into the Macron spec somehow, Lyricly will be forced to either make it or eternally not make Macron.
gollark: Yes, people like seeing people who are fairly good at things compete at them.
