Notes
  1. Japanese: ソルディバイド Hepburn: Soru Dibaido
gollark: Why is the framing format so convoluted?
gollark: How does *any* of this *ever* work?
gollark: I have unfortunately had to interact with email for my email to RSS bridge.
gollark: Make sure to do all your checks at least 3 times so there's redundancy in case one is removed by compiler optimisations.
gollark: ddg! Ntohl
