Etymology
The species is named after Prof. Tristan.[2]

gollark: It mutes and unmutes the microphone via pulseaudio, so it works for stuff like Teams which are bad and do not support PTT.
gollark: Virtually or physically? I have a neat push to talk script (for linux).
gollark: There is not one, unless the nitro thing hides it somehow which would be weird.
gollark: If styro was the owner he would have a crown icon.
