gollark: Anyway, see, 6_4 often finds exploits in potatOS, then discloses them a while afterward in obfuscated form.
gollark: Cool people.

gollark: You can read the code. PotatOS is almost fully open source.
gollark: 6_4 won't share them with me so they remain unpatched until I can somehow trace out the problem amongst the thousands of lines of code in potatOS.
