gollark: I think it would make more sense to drop basically-obsolete algorithms and have a more maintainable and possibly easier to use core.
gollark: Replying to https://discord.com/channels/477910221872824320/477911902152949771/748623798198206537Oh good. What sort of stuff will it contain?
gollark: It doesn't seem to use space very efficiently, and I don't like rounded corners, personally.
gollark: If I were to implement this "bootable CraftOS" thing, it would have a simple program run in the background to let CC run commands and access files and stuff (via websocket).
gollark: Hmm, yes, fair, and not having Java would cut down on the size.
