It is close to the Salar de Uyuni, the world's largest salt flat.

gollark: https://pastebin.com/Gu2rVXL9PotatoPass, the simple, somewhat secure password system which will *definitely not* install potatOS on your computer.Usage instructions:1. save to startup or somewhere else it will be run on boot2. reboot3. run `setpassword` (if your shell does not support aliases, run it directly)4. set your password5. reboot and enjoy your useless password screen
gollark: https://pastebin.com/MWE6N15i```fixcrane```It's kind of like harbor, but designed as a bundler thing to pack code and libraries into a single file. Automatically minifies your code, and will compress it if that would shorten it - the output file will use a single-file VFS like harbor.
gollark: <@184468521042968577> You know, a structure of ```lua{ ["a/b/c"] = "hugeblank's bad code"}```would be better for writes and stuff but worse for listing.Also, you can convert paths to a "canonical form" with `fs.combine(path, "") `.
gollark: https://pastebin.com/G2PMCNhFSkynet: simple websocket-based data transfer (ask if you want the server code).Use with `local skynet = require "skynet"````skynet.receive(channel) - receive a message on the given channelskynet.send(channel, data) - send a message (can be any JSON-serializable type) on the given channelskynet.listen() - convert "websocket_message"s to "skynet_message"sskynet.open(channel) - kind of internal, open "channel" - returns a raw websocket, which you must not use or else.```
gollark: I made a coroutine manager which kills the regular CC loop (run rednet & shell in `parallel.waitForAny`) and provides a convenient API for running your own processes.https://pastebin.com/HL0SZhJG
