gollark: Maybe not the item restocking one. I don't know how good the interfaces to AE2 or whatever are.
gollark: It's capable of it. You're using it wrong.
gollark: It can do all the stuff you mention, probably, if you have a lot of computers and I/O devices! But it requires someone, somewhere, to have put in work.
gollark: I guess in some sense that's "commands", but complicated fiddly ones.
gollark: The only way to make it do things is to *program it*, or I guess to use someone else's code.
