Background

gollark: <@579738672379854868> Is this one of those pyramid schemes where you get rewards by inviting people or something?
gollark: ... why? Nobody has asked for this so it makes you seem like an advertising bot.
gollark: That's actually pretty good because it's not copyable and impossible to fake.
gollark: I have one which uses asymmetric cryptography stuff - private key on the disk/card, public key stored... publicly - which means it doesn't need a server and can just pull off HTTP, but this is also neat.
gollark: Oh cool, a good keycard door lock program.
