Sebecidae
Sebecidae is an extinct family of prehistoric terrestrial sebecosuchian crocodylomorphs. Sebecids were diverse, abundant and broadly distributed in South America (mostly in Argentina, Brazil and Bolivia) during the Cenozoic, until the Middle Miocene;[1] although it has been suggested that at least some forms could have survived until the Miocene-Pliocene boundary in Brazil.[2]

gollark: Sooo... do I just need to redefine everything with an `environment` argument or which makes FS calls internally?
gollark: It does need pretty heavy lua meddling though, for sandboxing and all that.
gollark: Good idea.
gollark: no, contribute to potatOS.
gollark: My thing:- redefines FS functions in new env table- deep-copies a bunch of permitted APIs/libraries into it- redefines getfenv, load in env table- runs init file in new environment via `load`
