Taxonomy
Some older publications used the name Neomyxus chaptalli, but the holotype of Mugil chaptalli, MNHN 8100, is actually a specimen of the Flathead grey mullet, rendering leuciscus the correct name for the sharp-nosed mullet.[1][2][3]
gollark: No, and why.
gollark: So this may eventually allow stuff like P2P potatoUPDATES™.
gollark: The first one is the actual data, the second one is metadata (currently just the hash of the data section).
gollark: You are wrong. Anyway, the manifests are effectively just two lines of deterministic JSON (i.e. JSON with all keys sorted and no whitespace, so it'll always hash the same way).
gollark: Eventually I could even start signing the manifests so that you could safely download potatOS from *anywhere* and verify that it's the right thing easily.
