gollark: https://pastebin.com/pDNfjk30Tired of communicating fast? Want to talk over a pair of redstone lines at 10 baud? Then this is definitely not perfect, but does work for that!Use `set rx_side [whatever]` and `set tx_side [whatever]` on each computer to set which side of the computer they should receive/transmit on.
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: <@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.```
