Cast

gollark: I mean, most of those could probably just be grouped together into "CPU microcode", "Nvidia drivers" and "steam".
gollark: I mostly do high-level stuff (often web applications, because the web is a cool platform) and don't really do hardware, personally.
gollark: yes, btw I use arch.
gollark: I checked the AUR, and apparently there is a `libviper`, though.
gollark: Do you mean python or something?
