gollark: The `super().seed(a)` function it passes stuff onto may be doing things internally.
gollark: You can pass it things which aren't actually ints.
gollark: I think the python `random.seed` thing runs the seed you use through a bunch of weird processes including SHA512 and stuff, instead of just directly seeding the RNG with it.
gollark: Because why *not* ship an entire gigantic browser with every application?
