History
Ovelgönne has its origins in the "Oevelgünne" fortress which was constructed by Count Johann V of Oldenburg (1482-1526) at the end of June 1514 in order to enforce his rule over the surrounding area.
In 1583, Ovelgönne was given additional fortifications. From 1628 to 1631, Imperial Troops were quartered at Ovelgönne during the Thirty Years' War.

gollark: Okay then, I've added a setting (hopefully, I haven't... really done much testing...) which should allow you to disable PotatOS EZcopy/disk infection (`set potatOS.disable_ezcopy` out of sandbox, `est potatOS.disable_ezcopy` in sandbox). This is rolling out to potatOS computers on Switchcraft, and I'm planning to eventually mention this to users on first boot or something.
gollark: Generally ext4 is good.
gollark: The symlink thing? I think so. You will need to automount the disk, probably.
