gollark: The problem appears to be occuring when `write` is called.
gollark: Even weirder, it works when I just do raw term calls after redirecting, but `shell.run 'id'` afterwards makes it crash.
gollark: <@237328509234708481> It even breaks if I set it to not run the callback at all.
gollark: Also, according to the skynet server logs, there are no term events being sent anyway.
gollark: Sure as in "I ctrl-f'd the source and it didn't".
