Personnel

gollark: It halts periodically because printing is occuring so fast that the tray fills up in the two seconds between clearing cycles.
gollark: I filter out code beginning with `#`, so try again.
gollark: Technically, most of what gets printed is *code*, and most of it in fact runs fine with no runtime errors.
gollark: I'm randomly generating and printing lua code using a vast apparatus consisting of five different computers and a mess of cabling and chests.
gollark: No, it's worse, arguably, because you have to parse HTML *and* wikijunk.
