- Voluta virescens virescens Lightfoot, 1786
gollark: Funnily enough, the 32 byte limit is *barely* long enough that I can define and use... the identity function.
gollark: `9**9**9**9**9**9*9` is greater than 2^64, probably, so I cannot be stopped with C/Rust.
gollark: Unless we are just ignoring such limits.
gollark: This is still constrained by C integer sizes.
gollark: Even if we assume it just has to be *inside* a function, I believe my BEES count is greater than 2^128.
