gollark: I feel like if I *did* have some sort of dead man's switch it would lose any sort of power through being activated accidentally or ironically.

gollark: > When adding files, zpaq uses a rolling hash function to split files into fragments with an average size of 64 KB along content-dependent boundaries. Then it computes the SHA-1 hash of the fragment and compares it with saved hashes from the current and previous versions. If it finds a match then the fragment is not stored. How does *thiß* work?
