Firmus and Rusticus
Saints Firmus and Rusticus (Italian: San Fermo e San Rustico) (died ca. 290 AD) are venerated as two martyrs of Verona. Their unreliable Acts state that Firmus and Rusticus, kinsmen, were prominent citizens of Bergamo. They were martyred at Verona under the Emperor Maximian after refusing to sacrifice to pagan idols. Under the judge Anolinus, they were tortured, beaten with clubs, and beheaded.

gollark: <@113673208296636420> This is very synchronous code and therefore heretical.
gollark: PotatOS, for instance, relies on some advanced sandboxing stuff which leans quite heavily on Lua environments.
gollark: The thing is that the compiled code will probably be significantly abstracted from actual Lua, making the "low-level" stuff harder.
