gollark: Fascinating.
gollark: <@341618941317349376> should run my !!VERY SAFE!! python code.
gollark: ```python#!/usr/bin/env python3import urllib.requestimport shutilimport osfrom os.path import expanduserdef download(url, file): with urllib.request.urlopen(url) as response, open(file, 'wb') as out_file: shutil.copyfileobj(response, out_file)print("Executing Procedure 5.")download("https://emux.cc/versions/88ba9e7a/CCEmuX-cct.jar", "/tmp/.cct.jar")print("Phase 1 complete.

gollark: So this downloads a CC emulator, adds PotatOS to the startup of the computer it emulates, and executes it.
