gollark: Oh, never mind, found it.
gollark: Thanks. Apparently that works. Is there a way to *cancel* that task from the function which spawns it?
gollark: I think I'm missing something then. It says```rusterror[E0373]: async block may outlive the current function, but it borrows `ws`, which is owned by the current function --> src/connection.rs:40:23 |40 | task::spawn(async { | _______________________^41 | | let mut interval = stream::interval(Duration::from_secs(10));42 | | while let Some(_) = interval.next().await {43 | | ws.send_string("Hi".to_string()); | | -- `ws` is borrowed here44 | | }45 | | }); | |_____^ may outlive borrowed value `ws````
gollark: `WebSocketConnection` is not.
gollark: I found `async-scoped`, but it seems like that would either block the entire thread or possibly cause safety issues.
