gollark: The termination blocking, I mean.
gollark: Can you actually *do* that for OC?
gollark: Latency probably wouldn't be *awful* if it ran on the same device as the Minecraft world, but it would probably still be a bit slow.
gollark: Wait, no, you already said something about "while event.pull()" or something being bad, never mind. I can't think of alternatives other than having the data reader thing only send data when it gets a message requesting it, or bringing in an HTTP server or something to store everything, but those would also both not be efficient.
gollark: Ah. Hmm. Make it pull from the queue a bit faster than the other end sends messages?
