gollark: I wrote the software still running at https://status.osmarks.net/ during lunchtime and a somewhat boring virtual physics lesson (and then spent a while more time debugging a weird issue with file descriptor exhaustion, but something).
gollark: Seems reasonable, they aren't very interesting a lot.
gollark: You *might* end up in a scenario where you don't want to reinstall them because you'd feel "weak" or something, but still end up suffering somewhat and not being productive due to other things.
gollark: I see.
gollark: That is... unusual logic?
