Rated 4 out of 5 stars by Andrew Long on SF Signal.[3]

gollark: I agree. There are probably diminishing returns on hellness, thus problems.
gollark: The e-ink Kindles run some accursed Linux distro where ALL is browser.
gollark: IFcoltransG destroyed with facts and logic.
gollark: *one* sane sentence
gollark: We contain all important figures there. Like Jesus, various charts from the best papers, figures of speech, etc.
