Principia Discussion / Re: Have a Merry Mungday!
Last post by Abbot Mythos - January 05, 2026, 02:14:35 AM'Tis the fifth day of the first season of the Year of Our Lady of Discord 3192, and once again time to honor the Patron Saint of The Season of Chaos, Apostle Hung Mung.
For as Episkopos Good Lord Omar Khayyam Ravenhurst, KSC, himself wrote in The Honest Book of Truth, "Hung Mung, Chaoist Sage and True Man of Old, is Patriarch of Chaos." And, he told us that it was Apostle Hung Mung himself who enlightened the legendary Chinese philosopher Lao-tse.
Now, according to Lord Omar, Apostle Hung Mung was not your run-of-the-mill, conventional saint. The Patriarch of Chaos was, definitely, not a saint who spent his time "marching in." No, rather than "marching in," Hung Mung took to "rambling about slapping his buttocks and hopping like a bird." And, in fact, our Apostle's unique technique proved to be highly effective. For, by way of comparison, have you ever heard of any other saint "marching in" anywhere, who ever enlightened anyone? Anyone at all?
Hail Eris!
All Hail Discordia!

But then he started pushing his "Vax-Scene" which I originally thought was a mock.
BUT he was triple-dosed with the Clot-Shot. So obviously he was supporting it...in a "fun" way.
Supporting a fake vaccine that kills humans = ++ungood
I hereby revoke his status within Discordia.
Hail Eris...
Shut the fuck up, plague rat.

Last post by Doktor Howl - January 05, 2026, 01:01:57 AMQuote from: Abbot Mythos on January 03, 2026, 10:04:23 PMQuote from: Faust on January 03, 2026, 08:38:09 PMSo you are just siezing control of countries now? Interesting take on "freedom"It's early yet, and I thought both 'Colonialism,' and 'Imperialism' had gone out of fashion some time ago. But, I'm not 100% certain, as I was not a political science major at 'uni.' So, for right now, I'm inclined to score this one as 'Attempted Grand Larceny.'
However, that charge may need to be changed to 'Grand Larceny,' depending upon who ultimately gains control of Venezuela's massive oil reserves. Now, if the 'Merican Oil Oligarchs do end up profiting from this invasion, then I believe this will be Marco Rubio's ticket to winning the the Greedy Oligarchy Party's (GOP's) presidential primary in 2028. I write this because if there's nothing in Venezuela with Trump's name already on it, he wouldn't be able to locate the country on a map. So, I doubt His Vileness was the one who originally came up with the idea for this invasion.
I know you and I don't speak, but you're missing the whole point, here.
This doesn't have to do with oil, at least not directly. It has to do with a modern day Molotov Ribbentrop Pact, where the USA, Russia, and presumably China will divvy up the parts of the world worth having.
All you have to do is look at Rubio's statements to see that.
https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2025/12/19/Marco-Rubio-Ukraine-Russia/3961766175571/
QuoteDec. 19 (UPI) -- U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Friday that U.S. negotiators have made "progress" attempting to end the war between Russia and Ukraine, but ultimately "it's not our war."
<snip>
"It's not our war. It's a war on another continent.
Apparently, nobody has told the sweaty little muppet that South America is also a separate continent.
Add this to Xi's weird proclamation about Taiwan, and Trump doing everything he can to avoid helping Ukraine, and the picture becomes remarkably clear.
However, the fun bit starts when this arrangement falls apart, just like the original pact.
Thieves fall out.

Whattaya mean "Now"?
Looking at things objectively, in all but two or three situations, we've been the baddies.

Techmology and Scientism / Re: The Tech Forum
Last post by Abbot Mythos - January 04, 2026, 06:08:19 PMUK company sends factory with 1,000C furnace into space
As per this article:
"It sounds like science fiction - a factory, located hundreds of kilometres above the Earth, churning out high-quality materials.
But a Cardiff-based company is a step closer to making this a reality.
Space Forge have sent a microwave-sized factory into orbit, and have demonstrated that its furnace can be switched on and reach temperatures of around 1,000C.
They plan to manufacture material for semiconductors, which can be used back on Earth in electronics in communications infrastructure, computing and transport.
Conditions in space are ideal for making semiconductors, which have the atoms they're made of arranged in a highly ordered 3D structure.
When they are being manufactured in a weightless environment, those atoms line up absolutely perfectly. The vacuum of space also means that contaminants can't sneak in.
The purer and more ordered a semiconductor is, the better it works."
Having worked in the semiconductor/fiber optics industry, I can attest that there is a near unending quest for cleanliness, purity, miniaturization, precision, and production yield in the manufacture of those devices. Still, I was never approached about building a manufacturing facility in space. And so, I am impressed.

I didn't know JMW Turner painted mythological scenes.

Last post by Faust - January 03, 2026, 11:23:11 PMYes this is just a steal, Trump openly bragged about oil in his press thing earlier, the only thing I will say is at least this is open and not insulting everyone's intelligence like sending weapons inspector to find the weapons of mass distraction.
