Wait until she finds out about daemons.

[-] MaggiWuerze@feddit.de 47 points 1 month ago

Or the rituals I hold in my server room to appease the Omnissiah

[-] Ciel@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 1 month ago

daemons are just minor greek gods (but okay not like many people know that daemon and demon are very diferent things)

It's always funny naming a function which removes a child object from a parent object. I've stuck with "abandon child" so far.

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 54 points 1 month ago

I like "orphanize" - one of those things that shouldn't be a word, but is!

NGL, Orphaniser or Orphanizer sounds like one hell of a metal band name

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Alternatively a depressingly realistic look at the consequences of war for non-participating children, couched in the veneer of an 80s Sci-Fi movie.

"YOUR PARENTS WILL NOT BE BACK"

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 7 points 1 month ago

Or a Shark Tank-style infomercial product. "It's The Orphanizer, From Ronco!"

Just rename the child to Hamas. IDF will kill it for you.

Theoretically, where would one find a child to sacrifice? Asking for a friend.

[-] mox@lemmy.sdf.org 48 points 1 month ago

I heard from a friend that one can find lots of them here:

Inb4 normies force us to change well established terminology just to appease their fragile souls

Like git's main and master

[-] Duke_Nukem_1990@feddit.de 35 points 1 month ago

Whining about that change is kinda a red flag ngl

[-] vzq@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 1 month ago

Right? It’s less letters and it’s pretty clear.

I haven’t found a good action neutral replacement for “black list” yet though. “Deny list” and “block list” are too action-specific.

[-] Duke_Nukem_1990@feddit.de 6 points 1 month ago

Sounds like a nono list to me!

Look, we already got rid of "Master/Slave" in favor of things like "Parent/Child", "Active/Standby", or "Primary/Secondary". We're not making more changes because right-wingers are afraid of everything.

[-] ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

do we still have mother and daughterboards?

The child must be sacrificed to appease the daemon.

[-] NocturnalEngineer@lemmy.world 29 points 1 month ago

Surprised she didn't freak out with the line below. It's already gone on a killing spree...

[-] Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 15 points 1 month ago

Understandable because it's the process that's getting killed, but no child being sacrificed yet.

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

I'm surprised she managed to read five of the words.

[-] ruk_n_rul@monyet.cc 26 points 1 month ago

I smell a crime thriller where a serial killer is a programmer and hid their actual child killing searches by masking them as programmer endorsed child killing kind.

[-] Solemarc@lemmy.world 23 points 1 month ago

I like how at the start of the line it explicitly says "out of memory" but we're just pretending this is some satanic bullshit.

She obviously read the error to find "kill process" and "sacrifice child" but still ignored the memory error

[-] efstajas@lemmy.world 23 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Right, because non-technical people would be expected to understand what an "out of memory" error means

[-] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 9 points 1 month ago

The point is, it's cherry-picking

[-] chatokun@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 1 month ago

You have so much to learn about people who feed into the Satanic panic. Cherry picking is by definition how they get there. One of Alex Jones biggest boggiemen for years was a subsection of a law that allowed medical testing on troops, and he always ignores the very next section that states that it all requires informed consent. Then lies and act like people would have no idea.

During covid he found an exercise that tried to assume 4 different future scenarios that may come into play, and ignored the positive leaning ones or nuetralish ones and went straight for the heavily authoritarian exercise because it used a possible pandemic as a background setting, then claimed it was all planned out and proof Covid was a bioweapon attack.

People like this willfully ignore things that give context, and will often repackage it without the context anytime they can.

What? How does her being weirded out about the words "sacrifice child" mean she ignored anything? It doesn't matter what triggered the error, she is questioning why the code has dark word combinations

People who still have an i686 CPU, apparently.

What if you're a TV ?

[-] Saledovil@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 month ago

When sacrificing the child, use a dagger made from obsidian. Cut upward from below the sternum, then force the rib cage apart. Push the lungs aside with your hands, then cut out the heart with your ritual dagger. Hold the heart up to the cheering crowd, and then place it in an earthen vessel in honor of the gods. Kick the body down the steps of the temple pyramid.

[-] frezik@midwest.social 13 points 1 month ago

This ritual is common, but it has a bug in it that can be traced back to a specific SacrificeOverflow comment.

[-] Kornblumenratte@feddit.de 6 points 1 month ago

Actually no. A transsternal access to the heart is impossible with stone tools, even obsidian. Middle american ritual sacrifices were performed transphrenic – they had less problems with the complications of that access as they didn't intend their victim to survive, in contrast to — most — modern surgeons.

[-] Saledovil@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago

Yes, I made the ritual description up for a joke. I've never performed a human sacrifice.

[-] johannesvanderwhales@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

While most people on Lemmy are going to know what this means, the person who wrote this error message was definitely trying to be cute with that phrasing.
