gollark: What if I make it log into them... and politely notify them of the problem?
gollark: It's "preemptive self defense".
gollark: Hey, if they (uttelry fail to) hack me first...
gollark: That could be fun. I could make my virus thing actually work and assemble an army of slaves.
gollark: ... why did you just post and delete a question about your GPU, mysterious user?
