gollark: <@336962240848855040> I think QEMU can do that.
gollark: Can someone help with this really weird issue? I have a websocket-using thing (https://osmarks.tk/incdec/) which seemingly can't connect to the backend websocket (wss://osmarks.tk/incdec/api) in Firefox on my phone and laptop, even though it works fine when I test it with `wscat` and the Node.js `ws` thing. It worked fine up until quite recently.
gollark: You can also just use... steganography or something, I think that's the right term... to store your encrypted data in images.
gollark: I meant just put it in a savings account or something. But interest rates are not very good right now...
gollark: Anyway, if it were me I would probably buy a less extremely expensive laptop and save the money or something.
