gollark: Basically, it always starts "PotatOS", then I have 8102 hardcoded digits of tau (from which it picks a random number of them), *then* a randomly picked word containing "OS", then a non-cryptographic hash of some of the code.
gollark: No, PotatOS uses EXTREME VERSIONING.
gollark: So `0.1251192587.4` for example.
