gollark: I got bytecode right last time. Were you paying no attention? Of course, to obfuscate it I could then get it wrong. Or maybe you're running it wrong. Or maybe it's right and exploits certain vulnerabilities in Python to execute base32 encoding as a convoluted return into libc attack.
gollark: Quite easily.
gollark: Potentially.
gollark: No, only TIO.py does.
gollark: Some of them could have been done by Esobot.
