gollark: In what is arguably just *one* of my many poor design decisions, potatOS applies squid's stack trace thing globally by overriding (x)pcall, which really makes `debug.traceback` output less convenient.
gollark: But I don't use it because neither is very good.
gollark: PotatOS *does* have a very primitive persistent key/value store library (well, two).
gollark: A simple relational database-type thing would make many of my programs much easier. Not literally SQLite ingame (though there is an addon for that).
