  • Halopiger xanaduensis Gutierrez et al., 2007[5]
gollark: Oh, new suggestion: uʍop ǝpᴉsdn sᴉ pɹɐoqʎǝʞ ʎW.
gollark: SPUDNET would have security implications, as its security model doesn't match with what HeavOS's could be.
gollark: I mean, as I said, it would be much easier to have the server provide an API and stuff over websocket/HTTP thingies instead of messing with routing everything via SPUDNET.
gollark: Maybes omewhat ish?
gollark: SPUDNET is, er, not fast, and it would be much more convenient to develop if the apiosystem code communicated directly to the server.
