setTimeout may be called as a supybot.drivers.poll callback,
which may by the access to supybot.drivers.poll() in _select;
so a crash in setTimeout will propage up to _run(), which would
cause a random driver to be killed because another one failed
and that's bad.
For example:

ERROR 2020-05-27T18:40:19 supybot Uncaught exception in in drivers.run:

Supybot is a robust (it doesn’t crash), user friendly (it’s easy to configure) and programmer friendly (plugins are extremely easy to write) Python IRC bot. It aims to be an adequate replacement for most existing IRC bots. It includes a very flexible and powerful ACL system for controlling access to commands, as well as more than 50 builtin plugins providing around 400 actual commands.
Limnoria is the project which continues development of Supybot since 2010.
Build status

Support
Documentation
If this is your first install, there is an install guide. You will probably be pointed to it if you ask on IRC how to install Limnoria. TL;DR version:
sudo apt-get install python3 python3-pip python3-wheel
pip3 install --user limnoria
# You might need to add $HOME/.local/bin to your PATH
supybot-wizardThere is extensive documentation at docs.limnoria.net and at Gribble wiki. We took the time to write it; you should take the time to read it.
IRC channels
In English
If you have any trouble, feel free to swing by #supybot and #limnoria on freenode or #supybot at OFTC (we have a Limnoria there relaying, so either network works) and ask questions. We’ll be happy to help wherever we can. And by all means, if you find anything hard to understand or think you know of a better way to do something, please post it on the issue tracker so we can improve the bot!
