Filmography

His work includes:[6]

gollark: You can use ffmpeg or something, but don't, GIFs are an awful format.
gollark: Personally, I find not having keepinv very annoying.
gollark: They probably (try and) detect VMs, too, because only !!!!!EVIL CHEATERS!!!!! need VMs.
gollark: Which is very annoying, because apart from the privacy (it can read basically any data and is designed so that you cannot know/see what it does) and security (they could have exploits) implications, it breaks stuff like WINE.
gollark: As I said, lots of anticheat things run in the kernel already.
