- This is true and remote from all cover of falsehood
- Whatever is below is similar to that which is above. Through this the marvels of the work of one thing are procured and perfected.
- Also, as all things are made from one, by the condsideration of one, so all things were made from this one, by conjunction.
- The father of it is the sun, the mother the moon.
- The wind bore it in the womb. Its nurse is the earth, the mother of all perfection.
- Its power is perfected. If it is turned into earth,
- separate the earth from the fire, the subtle and thin from the crude and course, prudently, with modesty and wisdom.
- This ascends from the earth into the sky and again descends from the sky to the earth, and receives the power and efficacy of things above and of things below.
- By this means you will acquire the glory of the whole world, and so you will drive away all shadows and blindness.
- For this by its fortitude snatches the palm from all other fortitude and power. For it is able to penetrate and subdue everything subtle and everything crude and hard.
- By this means the world was founded
- and hence the marvelous cojunctions of it and admirable effects, since this is the way by which these marvels may be brought about.

Uhoh
ifupdown2 has a 15-character interface name limit, and the systemd predictable interface naming system uses the mac address for usb nics (giving them a 15-character name), so if you try to create a vlan subinterface of a usb nic using the standard interface.vlan naming scheme on a systemd host, it will fail, and you’ll have to set up systemd network link files to rename the base interfaces to something shorter.
Tell me you had to do real work with Systemd and discovered what a steaming useless pile of millennial shite it is as a whole, without using those words. The only cure for lennart’s cancer is to cut it out.
It’s the same when creating network interfaces via the
ip
tool.Reminds me of the ESP32 ROM dictionary only taking a 15 character limit and simply bugging out silently without any notification whatsoever. Arduino, so easy to use, great for beginners. It has got all the wild goose chases!
I’m almost sure the backstory to how you gained this knowledge is “i spent hours debugging something, and that 15 chars limit was the problem”
Yep exactly! Setting up a raspberry pi low-performance computing cluster with secondary usb nics, going slowly insane trying to figure out why the vlan interfaces wouldn’t work when their base interfaces worked just fine, and going down all of the wrong rabbit holes along the way.
And all that just because someone decided that an array bigger that 16 bytes would have been too expensive (/s probably)
“Bizarre” is the only word from the Basque language that is regularly used in the English language
(Can’t wait to be proven wrong in 5… 4… 3…)
I found this really interesting so I looked it up! This website claims that “anchovy” also came to English from Basque, along with “bilbo” and possibly “jingo”.

Sorry for the delay
😂 Ok so the “regularly” in my post is doing a bit of lifting. Not too much tho (anchovy is the only other one you could possibly consider frequently used, unless you have a particularly bizarre vocabulary).
bilbo, meaning a sword made in Bilbao,
Bilbo Baggins is the hero of The Hobbit, which every true lemmy user has tattooed on their left thigh.
TIL I’m not a true Lemmy user.
You shall not pass!
That’s what most of their teachers said, I bet.
$50.00 and I’ll keep it quiet.
I have it tattooed on my middle thigh.
That’s your nose!
There’s a trick with our loan servicing XML imports. If you pre-encode the property address into a [Comment] tag inside the [CIF] section, the system auto-fills it in three different screens, even though none of them actually pull from that tag offcially. I don’t know why it works, just that it does. Doesn’t really save me more than about thirty seconds but when you’re boarding dozens of loans per week, it can add up.
If you stare at the elbow of someone you are high-fiving, you’ll never miss the high five.
I don’t think that’s esoteric. It’s just ergonomics at plat
It is possible to get access to nitrogen in antimatter chemistry before entering the nether.

Sulfur can be gotten through colors.
Gears with a casting table, thermal pipes, and the alchemistry liquefier.

Modded Minecraft?
Yeah
Everything you learn from being active on Tumblr from late 2012 to now
Crime novelist Jim Thompson [Pop.1,280] wrote a novelization of the TV show Ironside.
If that’s not esoteric, I don’t know what is.
the internet is bad.
There is only one model structure that can be put on the category of small categories for which the weak equivalences coincide with honest equivalences of categories. It’s called the Joyal-Tierney model structure. You can define the suspension of an object in any model category as the homotopy pushout to two terminals, then define an abstract notion of a sphere in any model category by setting the 0-sphere as the coproduct of two terminals and the (n+1)-sphere as the suspension of the n-sphere.
A small category is a CW-complex if and only if it is a groupoid.
There are two types of color E-ink displays:
One that uses a color filter on top of a regular black and white particle display, like in their Kaleido screens. This has a faster refresh rate like black and white displays, but the colors are muted and the screen’s “pure white” is much more gray than other displays.
One that uses four colored particles, cyan, magenta, yellow, and reflective white, like in their Gallery screens. This has a much slower refresh rate, but the colors are vivid and the screen’s “pure white” is just as good as a non-color screen.
There are also color transflective LCD screens from other companies that are sometimes marketed as “e-paper” or “paper like” that are fairly uninteresting.
And there are just straight up backlit LCD screens marketed as “e-paper” or “paper like” that are just not. XPPen just made one. I personally think this should be considered false advertising.
The great opera singer Enrico Caruso was the 18th of 21 children, only 3 of whom survived infancy.
Johann Sebastian Bach wrote an opera about coffee addiction.
The Russian composer Tchaikovsky was afraid his head would come off while conducting, so he would hold his chin with one hand while doing so.
The girlfriend of composer Erik Satie wore a corsage made of carrots, and she was a painter and liked to feed the paintings she made. Satie once threw her out the window but she survived.
Johann Sebastian Bach wrote an opera about coffee addiction.
And you didn’t provide a Janeway meme?
Fucking hell, even Satie ??
Even Satie. Who collected umbrellas.
Human blood is a valid substitute for eggs in baking.
Human (and animal) blood and eggs can also both be used in place of Styrofoam to gelify fuel for molotovs.
What about soap flakes?
TIL. So many options to make a molotov nastier. Stinky rotten egg fires!
So is semen iirc.
Nice
There’s no way. It doesn’t taste like eggs at all. Does it? I’ve never tasted raw egg before
For it to be a substitute, it doesn’t have to taste the exact same. It just has to have similar properties.
Yeah I remember a video called the “cumlette”
I learned this from the reverse, as eggs are a valid substitute for human blood in sacrifices.
Coagulation station
Is it, though? I get that they have a similar protein composition or whatever, but there’s no way the taste is anywhere near the same. Then again, I guess I’ve never eaten fully raw eggs before (not sure if a semi-runny sunny side up on toast counts, heh).
But you have eaten raw human blood‽
I did in a shot. It doesn’t taste like egg.
You’ve never tasted your own blood from like bloody lips and stuff?
Oh, yes, I guess I didn’t think of that
There is (or at least used to be) a debug command to write-protect a hard drive. No idea what it’s for or why such a thing exists, but you flip a certain bit from 0 to 1 and drive no write. I won $100 once at work with this knowledge. We had a training course about how much better the new version of windows at the time was and how much harder it was to break - so hard they’d pay $100 (in early 2000s money) to anyone who could unrecoverably break their demo windows install during the 10 minute presentation. The instructor (who worked for Microsoft) said he’d been doing this for 6 months and they’d never had to pay out that prize before, much less 30 seconds in.
Sounds like something registry editor related.
No, this was via debug, a command that’s been included in MS-DOS since like version 2.0 (before there even was a Windows, much less full-OS windows like Win95/NT/etc rather than 3.0/3.1 that were just fancy launchers that sat on top of DOS.) It can let you view and alter the contents of memory at a particular address, etc. We also used it to wipe hard drives by forcibly writing 0s to every block on the drive.
You could do stuff like that with the older DOS versions of Norton Utilities. I used to do fun stuff like set my friend’s files as the drive label. He thought I was basically a wizard.
Yup, or any hex editor that could target memory addresses (some of them were limited to run on a certain file or whatever.) But yeah I used to do similar when I was a kid, I would go into my game files (all DOS games back then of course) and change text strings you could find in there with a hex editor. I’d just change goofy stuff like ‘Copyright’ to ‘Copyleft’, ‘The bandit strikes the princess!’ to ‘The dude slaps a ho’, etc. It was endlessly amusing when I was that age. :)
