gollark: Oh, so it just does login and no actual sandboxing?
gollark: I'd like to see. Some offense, but I bet it either doesn't allow you the ability to write/run arbitrary code or doesn't work.

gollark: The option #3 I suggested was to not have multiple users; just let the person using it edit everything and don't try some awful nonfunctional sandboxing implementation like you've made.
gollark: I mean, you could do that; that's option #1. It would be an awful solution. But you could.
