gollark: HASH THE PASSWORD
gollark: Although lately a bitops bug made PotatOS Hypercycle unable to install on it, as it couldn't verify the hashes on the install files.
gollark: CraftOS-PC is basically good enough.
gollark: CCEmuX tends to be more accurate, as it uses much of the CC code.
gollark: I remember how in ye olden times of CraftOS-PC PotatOS was able to accidentally segfault and crash it in several different ways.
