gollark: Oh, right, channels exist though.

gollark: Well, yes. Rednet offers basically the same guarantees, but it seems secure even though it isn't. Modem works the same.

gollark: You can't. This is a design feature.

gollark: Anyway, I shall summarize. You download https://github.com/osmarks/skynet/blob/master/client.lua as skynet or something, do `local skynet = require "skynet"` or `dofile` instead of `require`, then use the skynet functions.

gollark: That is not more specific.
