Personnel
gollark: ++remind 3y You ARE to have "completed" Minoteaur.
gollark: They imply """"love"""""", which is of course an unacceptable set of emotions.
gollark: Instead, it may simply be that I'm bad at doing complex projects which aren't able to somehow hold my interest like potatOS can, or perhaps that I don't have very clear goals.
gollark: Look up SPF/DKIM.
gollark: It's spam.
