Critical reception
TV Guide wrote, "less rather than more, as most follow-ups are." [2]
gollark: That's not an actual format. Files with `.conf` extensions contain many different incompatible weird things.
gollark: I prefer TOML for configuration. YAML is really overcomplicated.
gollark: Servers have *loads* though, especially newer AMD ones.
gollark: There are PCIe switch thingies but they're expensive and you still have limited bandwidth to the CPU.
gollark: They have a finite amount of PCIe lanes.
