Personnel
gollark: I copy some keys out of the global environment, then apply the FS changes, then `setfenv` everything to the new env.
gollark: What I want to do is `load` a new environment and stuff, and then have functions depending on global stuff (like `loadfile` using `fs.open` or whatever) use the functions in that environment.
gollark: I have absolutely no idea any more.
gollark: Does discord have a mute thing or whatever?
gollark: .💠 ⚫
