Reviews

The Süddeutsche Zeitung called the adaptation "remarkable."[5]

gollark: It's an overlay network with NAT hole punching and such.
gollark: Tailscale?
gollark: Java and (C)Python are bytecode interpreters. The critical stuff could probably fit into cache.
gollark: I read your question but didn't know the answer.
gollark: Just try it and see which bits catch fire.
