gollark: REAL men send a specially crafted set of data and stall it until precisely the right time so that the random number generator will pick them.

gollark: For a cheaper alternative, you can use those vaguely knockoffy Banana Pis and Orange Pis.
gollark: 1. get a Raspberry Pi through Amazon or something, the Raspberry Pi 4 is recommended2. obtain apples3. grind up the apples into small apple fragments4. place the raspberry pi into the apple fragments5. a displacement reaction should occur, converting the raspberry pi into an apple pi(e) and producing a raspberry precipitate
gollark: That actually seems really useful and it seems weird that nobody thought of this before. Maybe it could list the text scale too.
