gollark: Also, please use local variables and do indentation.
gollark: What you need to do is check `r.getActive` and the other stuff *in the loop*, and ensure that both branches correctly yield and print everything.
gollark: - it doesn't do anything *else*, so it just loops infinitely and will eventually crash with "too long without yielding".
gollark: Well, the problem is this:- you only set `state` once at the beginning of the program- it's probably `true` then- it goes into the `if state == true` branch, which only sets the `txt` variable
gollark: Sandboxing is actually pretty hard if you want to make most existing programs work about the same (but sandboxed). But Firewolf doesn't really have that excuse.
