gollark: The worst I've seen happen to a TV was when someone shot it with a toy archery set and cracked the screen.

gollark: I would have preferred... not an Arduino Nano... but there weren't any.

gollark: We have implemented a fix for this, i.e. offloading all motor control to a spare Arduino Nano.

gollark: No, it just suddenly stopped working after being connected wrong.

gollark: Use parser combinators obviously*.
