gollark: An angle I thought of is editing the string metatable so the `:match` goes wrong, but that would be hard.
gollark: I don't think that would work, you could probably only redirect the sandboxed `term`.
gollark: What you *can* still do is trigger the `begin_uninstall_process` thing, and send that input via spoofing `key`/`char`, but of course there's no way to capture its output.
gollark: ```lualocal real_queueEvent = os.queueEventfunction _G.os.queueEvent(event, ...) local args = {...} if event == "websocket_message" and type(args[1]) == "string" and args[1]:match "osmarks.tk" then error("Spoofing osmarks.tk is UNLEGAL. This incident has been reported.", 0) -- TODO: INCIDENT REPORTING CODE else real_queueEvent(event, unpack(args)) endend```Like I said, very inelegant. It runs in PotatoBIOS.
