gollark: I fear that that's specifically a CC:T thing
gollark: To write strings? Weird.
gollark: Do I need to switch it to binary mode and is there a way around the only reading by bytes thing?
gollark: I'm doing this with `"w"` and `"r"` mode instead of actual binary ones, because it's worked before and because `"wb"` and whatever seemingly only allow reading by bytes which would be really inconvenient.
gollark: So, basically, a new potatOS feature writes very long binary strings to files.
