Species

Species within the genus Theba include:

gollark: Or just not update, I guess?
gollark: So you'd then need to muck with the autoupdater enough to get some updates, but not break entirely.
gollark: PotatOS has an autoupdater, remember?
gollark: That would be very hard.
gollark: You can wipe it and disable startup via RightCtrl+W and RightCtrl+S respectively.
