gollark: We have to manufacture messiahs *somewhere* and it's really rather hard without a centralized facility.
gollark: It *may* also have been retroactively self-causing.
gollark: I suspect it came from the human collective unconsciousness itself.
gollark: PotatOS™ originally came to me in a dream, and the code simply flowed from my fingers with no conscious intervention.
gollark: It's my name on the commits, and I typed out the code, but I didn't *design* potatOS, or create it.
