Although writing most of the songs, Tarkio used some covers in the recording of Omnibus. "Never Will Marry" and "Mountains of Mourne" (originally "The Mountains of Mourne") are both Irish folk ballads that have been covered by Johnny Cash and Bill Craig respectively. "Goodbye Girl" is a cover of the Squeeze song from their album Cool for Cats.

gollark: There is, what is it again, rustls, though. Maybe they'll provide some way to replace openssl with that.
gollark: I hope security-critical stuff like OpenSSL gets done in Rust or something.

gollark: PHP basically removes the possibility of you messing up with memory management, although it makes XSS issues and other !!FUN!! stuff quite easy. More modern templating-engine stuff make it hard to have accidental XSS issues.
