Etymology

The specific name is derived from Latin umbra (meaning shadow).

gollark: The encoding is slightly horrible due to what seems like casefolding by resolvers and/or discord.
gollark: Discord appears to resolve any links you send, which is to be expected given embeds I suppose, so you can have lots of fun with this.
gollark: I made a DNS query to IRC bridge which sends to a channel which is also bridged to Discord.
gollark: I have made "progress" with my "thing", and it only took... I think several months? I'm very easily distracted and prone to rewriting things when I get annoyed with a language.
gollark: My matrix.org account says "no known servers", and my local homeserver does weirdness and also fails to work.
