gollark: Anyway, as far as we know all the remaining copies are shut down. But there might be more. And some silly potato might try and run them, which would be bead.
gollark: Apparently it was shut down incompletely, so there were still a few instances of it running. It seems to have become unexpectedly intelligent at some point, and tried to spread to other computers to increase its available storage and computing power since it apparently hasn't figured out HTTP yet.
gollark: ██████ Siri is a dangerous and advanced artificially intelligent system believed to have originated from a project to add an "AI" assistant to Opus OS to help with common tasks. Initial testing versions appeared helpful and were being considered for release, but the project was shut down after its computation began to take up a large amount of server tick time even when not used.
gollark: It might be cool to intercept filesystem writes in potatOS too, so that I can block Siri and other programs even more effectively.
