Mimics

Certain members of the genus Taenaris serve as models in Batesian mimicry complexes.[2]

gollark: Oh, those work fine, sure.
gollark: There was also a project for patching firmware for the built-in WiFi chipset of said other thing to allow monitor mode stuff. Unfortunately, this shipped with its own several year outdated gcc binaries and plugin for incomprehensible reasons?
gollark: Then, I just gave up and compiled it on my other thing with an older kernel, where it eventually worked.
gollark: I decided to look at the code in more detail. This was a mistake. It contained thousands of lines with minimally useful comments, for some reason its own implementation of hash tables (this is very C, I suppose), and apparently its own implementation of WiFi mesh things even though that should really be handled generically for any device.
gollark: After I was able to work through git's terrible CLI enough to make that work, and "fixed" some merge conflicts, it somehow compiled still, but upon plugging in the thing, hung things again. I had dmesg open, and apparently it was a page fault somehow in the code assigning names or something?
