Personnel
gollark: Mostly the content.
gollark: They do have a memory. It just isn't very good.
gollark: I have a thing to suspend tabs so they don't use RAM/CPU, so theoretically I can go to hyperscale™ quantities of tabs.
gollark: As of now, I have 755 tabs, which is down from 840 last week.
gollark: If anyone continues to be curious, the graphs are mostly at https://stats.osmarks.net/d/rYdddlPWk/general?orgId=1&refresh=1m (should work unauthenticated), there are guides on the arch wiki and such if you want to set this up on a server, and https://github.com/osmarks/autobotrobot/commit/4e1dc6b337110c20e2d194ee5c4517eea0abaea2 contains the integration code.
