Background
Started in 1928, Marmittone ("rooky") is derived from the "marmitta", the huge pot in which the military rations are cooked.[1] The main character is a simple-minded soldier and of good will who, for his gaffes or simply for misfortune, goes to prison at the end of any adventure.[1] The comic strip was published by Il Corriere dei Piccoli until 1940, a few weeks before the outbreak of World War II.[1]
Marmittone is considered a parody of Fascist values of militarism and virility[2] and was referred as "the most coherent and irreducible underhand antagonist of the soldierly stereotypes of any dictatorship".[3]

gollark: <@236831708354314240> Surely you could just use a regular terminal and some external keybinding thing.
gollark: Suspicious.
gollark: (this is obviously by heavpoot. you can tell quite easily.)
gollark: Besides, your code doesn't check for important and totally relevant cases like `js` already being `Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER`.
