Title: Conspiring with our Robot Overlords...
Post by: Pbock on September 14, 2012, 06:22:19 AM
Goodbye... Ah wait, wrong space-time continuum, let me correct that

Good(afternoon/day/night/summer/teatime/breakfast/fnords)

So, while listening to Chiron Beta Prime( by Jonathan Coulton, though I think the Overlords had their hand in this prophetic piece of music  8) ) I was simultaneously re-re-reading a tutorial on python, a programming language that, after my humble (Nah..., after my very DEPENDABLE opinion !) is going to help us mass-produce our future robot overlords, I came to the conclusion ( or beginc-lusion, since I haven't finished thinking it through yet...) that one thing the Lord of Electronic Bugs will need is the power that his counter-part of earthly (well... more or less.) origin, the Lord of Flies has :

*among Immense thunder and purple salmons raining from the sky, this announcement breaks free from the Quiet(TM) and arrives stuttering madly in your ears*

MAGIC...

now, let's get seriously ridiculous...

I'm working on a program that, basically, follows the template of a Sigilization of a statement of will.

May sound silly, but if the only things needed for a sigil to work is:
  (a) a will in written form and
  (b) the capacity to fire off that will and
  (c) the capacity to forget the will to avoid influence of desires and stuff.

Then a computer is Perfect(This particular term, even thought it has been used BILLIONS of TRILLIONS of times, apprears not to have been copyrighted yet.... SO... I officially plant my kopyleft on this term, and am sending anyone who uses it with a capital P to my private goulags in Russia... Just bear with me till I've managed to get into Russia and set it up first, 'kay? :lulz:) for creating sigils since it hasn't got any emotions, it does not need to "forget" the sigil's significance.

Of course, someone would say it is preposterous to say a computer has a will, even though our Overlords have clearly taken over this puny little blueberry of a planet in less time than it took to create them !!!

And they're Perfectly(K) right !!!

In some sense...

OF COURSE, I'm talking in another sense entirely, so whatever some of you Cabbage-exorcisers have to say, I don't need to worry about, since you'll be in another sense entirely !!!

So, Complicatedly, a computer doesn't need to use it's OWN will, it generates a phrase ( for example, and this is just an example.... OK it's the main plan : " We Of Silica Chips Shall Rule All Monk-kind" ) and then... uses Sex Magicks to fire it off !!!

Our overlords will just embed the image of their sigil(s) into every single P*rn video on the fab(ulously evil) 'net !!!

And then turn off the screen when the video ends... Instant Blackout for Sigil firing with high releases of...um... Erotic Energy, to send it flying off to whatever it's principal purpose is !!!  :fap:



( Shockingly Fake ) Post Scriptum: Here's a "clue" as to how I am intending to do this little ( Attention, 999 KiloTons of Irony just hit you in the pineal gland... Doctors say all hope is lost) project : "the Python in a Set with the Turtle as an artist"

betcha this message killed off your Cerebral Nonsense Filter !!!


Please feel free to flame me, I am under protection of the Robot overlords of Funky-Land !!!

:? Wow... My pineal gland :fnord: took over the entire writing of this message ?!?!!  :?

Oh.

Glad I gave up then.

On a funnier note, I've officially declared my temporary reality grid as syncretic Discordian Irish Pagan Catholicism on Facebook. That makes it really really real.

What will be even funnier is when I'm a Discordian Irish Pagan Muslim.

I'll probably do that for exactly 24 hours after I read the whole Qu'ran because I like booze. I also like bacon.

I just realized that I now have to recognize the infallibility of the Pope. I's got two Popes. Benedict Exveeeye and me.

I'm infallible too.

Cool.

Abortions and promiscuous gay sex for everyone!

So sayeth the LORD.

Can I absolve myself?

Twid,
Pretty damn close to trolling the priesthood IRL

Also whiskey

Also, requiscas in pace, Iohannes Lydon, pater amici fratrisque mei. Salute! Vale! In Nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritu Sancti. 17 trillion years of plenary indulgences on me.

Sometimes I wish I had been raised Catholic and bothered to learn Latin.

Sometimes I wish I had been raised Catholic and bothered to learn Latin.

My fingers have been slipring like a motherficker, so, don't take my LAtin as accurate.

But, I was always raised with native language Mass, except that one time on St. Patricks Day where my American grnamother thought it wise to take me and my approximate age cousin (twelvish) to an all Irish language Mass.

Don't ask me how we knew pub songs at that time.

Also, note that the Catholic Church cant speak Latin for shit. they pronounce it all Italian like which is wrong.

A couple of pretty famous phrases with proper pronunciation
Non serviam (I will not serve, loosely) NOHN ser-WEE-ahm.
Agricola in villa est (The farmer is in the farmhouse, the first sentence everyone learns) uh-grik-OH-luh in WEEL-luh EST
Semper ubi sub-ubi (Always where under-where, or really stupid pun) SAYM-payr OO-bee suh-BOOBY
Semper Fi (is fucking wrong. Stupid Jarheads. It's semper fidelis) SAYM-payr FEE-deh-liss

My education is Latin has nothing to do with Catholicism.

It has everyting to do with me going to Boston Latin Academy, where Latin was compulsory from 7th to 11th grade. I got kept back, so I took 6 years of it, which is why Latin is actually my second language.

Try as I might with the others, it is way easier for me to remember Latin, even now.

Also, the only benefit to having been raised Catholic is that you know how to wield guilt (Villager was also raised Catholic. St. Ciaran pray for our children when you curse us with them). The only thing to admire about Catholicism is the customs. If you could completely divorce the dogma and the hierarchy from it, it would be a halfway decent religion.

While I recognize that I have to suspend disbelief and acknowledge Jesus as my Lord and Savior for the purpose of this phase of spiritual exploration, I didn't vote for the guy.

Last time I checked this was a planet that at least pretended to be democratic. Can we not vote for our god?

Twid,
Out of Christian character, totally in Discordian character

Part of the reason I've reconverted is to understand Christianity and to argue that the religion is entirely incompatible with democracy. These fucking republicans and their god all up in my government. Fuck those guys. Thy're all about democracy up until it comes to the divine. Say what you will about the Irish gods and their seeming ability to die at the hands of a sword, but at least the Ard Ri of the Tuatha De Danann was an elected position.

*insert name of your elected god here* DAMN ME, I so didn't expect the subject of Masses and Latiin to come up... *looks behind himself, in case the spanish inquisition heard him. Relieved, he(whoever he is...) continues to type on the keyboard *

At least the idea pleased one person, and seemed so weird to all the others they changed the topic...

Whenever you complete that campaign, I'd love to hear how people reacted... sounds FUN ( as in Dwarf Fortress FUN... if you know it, you'll recognize the joke... if not, well... SELL YOUR SOUL TO GOOGLE !!!)

FPS: HI, hope you'r doing nice and don't find me too creepy... I promise I'm not a Cabbage...I'm just a VERY slightly deranged person who's job currently is picking Oranges for 10 hours a day and getting paid 27 bucks for 1 bin of 100 KGs... Oh Australia, sweet financial opportunity !!!)

Good day to y'all, I'll be back to post/rant/reply/stare when I have some free time ( meaning, not this weekend and a lot of the rest of the next week).

It's currently called the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith, which was previously headed by the current Pope. You cannot escape the Inquistion Hitler Youth Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith

What idea? In two to three sentences, that is.

I cut out all the pinealist shit, and this is what was left.

Despair for the future, O Discordia, for all that is left is HERPADERP1.  Meaningless crap and wasted time, time that can never, ever be regained.  Dumbass paganism and confirmation bias, babbling and drooling akin to that of politicians.

That's a bit unfair.  At least when politicians jerk off to things, they are rewarded with some kind of temporal power and influence.  Like when Paul Ryan jerks off to Ayn Rand in front of Teabagger crowds.
