I accidentally gave it my neural connector, and while trying to figure out how to get it back swapped my armor onto it (turns out shiftrightclick does that). Eventually I got them both back, but while my elytra was on the stand aus210 stole it. I asked for it back and they repeatedly denied it.They have claimed:- they can keep it because I intentionally left it there (this is wrong, and I said so)- there was no evidence that it was mine so they can keep it (...)EDIT: valithor got involved and got them to actually give it back, which they did after ~10 minutes of generally delaying, apparently leaving it in storage, and dropping it wrong.
gollark: Someone had a problem with two mutually recursive functions (one was defined after the other), so I fixed that for them. Then I explained stack overflows and how that made their design (`mainScreen` calls `itemScreen` calls `mainScreen`...) problematic. Their suggested solution was to just capture the error and restart the program. Since they weren't entirely sure how to do *that*, their idea was to make it constantly ping their webserver and have another computer reboot it if it stopped.
