gollark: <@290217153293189120> Want a key to view the potatOS incident reports?

gollark: Mostly.

gollark: At least it's probably read-only.

gollark: I tweaked the code and I can give people *read-only* access to SPUDNET reporting stuff, anyone interested?

gollark: ```lualocal real_error = errorfunction _G.error(...) if math.random(1, 100) == 5 then real_error("vm:error: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Resuming from unknown instruction", 0) else real_error(...) endend```
