gollark: No, GTech™ [REDACTED] spatial curvature manipulation.

gollark: If you cut all the links to Europe somehow, including indirect ones, you would really only succeed in isolating yourself from osmarks.net.

gollark: osmarks.net™ unfortunately has no UPS or anything, but the power grid here is VERY reliable.
