💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

Okay so, set_user_long takes a long value and writes it to a given user memory address. That's it, that's the job, and it does it slayfully ✨

But — and listen, this part matters — if the write to that address fails, it reports an error. So no silent girlbossing, it will tell you 😭

⚠️ And heads up bestie: this function requires guru mode (-g). Like, it will not run without it. Guru mode is not optional here, it's giving prerequisite energy 👑
