OCTADE or OCTAD is a retro word that means either an octal digit of three bits, or an octal octet or an eight-bit byte. Thus an octade, depending on its historical use, is either 3 bits or 8 bits.

OCTADE was used to specify eight bits, as opposed to BYTE which is not necessarily eight bits as the word BYTE could signify any of several numbers of bits.

This yields the retro 1337 numbers of 38 and 83. The number 38 is one more than 37 so a bit more elite a bit cooler. Thus it owns cardinally shorter byterz.

83 mod 38 equals 7, the highest octal digit. 838 mod 383 equals 72 or 9 times 8 which is 8 squared plus 8.

8338 mod 3883 equals 572 which is 72 times 8 minus 4 or 71.5 times 8.

8383 mod 3838 equals 707 which is 88 times 8 plus 3.

I prefer the old word OCTADE to the word BYTE. OCTADE sports a Euro-peon dignity and gravitas like an Internet serf ready to surf the worknet like pwnd peons. This is very true when pronouncing OCTADE with a thick Pennsyltucky Dutch or Yinzer accent. The Bostonian pronunciation sounds like bad beginner German or muffled mumbling of 'lactate.'

OCTADE or OCTAD was also used to describe a poem of eight stanzas.

OCTADE was also used to describe a period of eight years, or two leap years.

OCTADECANAL is a pheromone found in butterflies. It is butterfly perfume. I would not wear butterfly cologne. But I would sell it. Who would buy and wear my snobby smell? With wordplay we can call it OCTADE CHANNEL No. 8 . All rights reserved, ye French odor snooties.

22 Tongue Slinger

Cowboys grazing
on bacon and beans;
Their six guns are blazing
Ablast across the vast plains.

Tounges are slinging,
Brass bells are ringing,
Black powder is singing,
Bullets of words are zinging.

The tongue slinger
Is a hum dinger
A whiz and a zinger
A poetic dead ringer!

Tongue slinger verse
Grows faster and worse
And once words have shot you
Blasted brains flee with a curse.

Babbling brains
Repeat the refrains
Of six guns a-blazing
A tongue slinger--amazing!

@octade I tried to follow but it didn't work. Do you have it locked?

@octade You had me at Yinz; I went there for college.

I don't know if it's original or not, but it's the first time I've heard it and I laughed audibly at "yinzer phonics" @octade.

Y'all. I haven't been on fedi long enough for y'all to truly get a sense of how much I hate the head of the other department. It could power a small country for several weeks.

She's leaving at the end of February.

And the icing on the cake was in the announcement, my very personable and loving boss who 99.999% of the time very purposefully says she is sad to see someone go, made no such statement.

IT'S FUCKING DELICIOUS.

I'm trying to decide what I'm treating myself with for dinner to celebrate. This is EPIC fucking news. She has caused a literal rift between the two departments almost from the beginning of her time. We asked them to follow data standards and she replied "Yeah we don't have time for that." and really it all went downhill from there. She pits her entire team against us in every possible way she can. It's a daily battle.

Her team better be on their best fucking behaviour. More than one of them is only still with us because she likes them.

The diacritics form a pyramid vortex. Spooky hallucination.

The suggestion at the end of this might be a viable option.

Use application, 'testdisk' to analyze without writing any changes. If it can detect the lost exfat tables then it can be recovered. I have done this with multiple failed media and drives. Be sure to read the documentation carefully before running it.

Exfat writes a backup boot region. Testdisk should be able to check for this.

If that doesn't work there is ddrescue and photorec for finding and recovering individual files.

You might also use 'dd' to raw copy the damaged volume to an image file and write that image file to other external media then try running 'testdisk' and other tools on the copy. You can keep the image file as a backup as you try to recover the data from a copy first, to avoid the risk of further damage to the card.

I made a X account awhile back.

Within hours I have dozens and dozens of spam accounts following me.

I reported many of them.

Twitter / X staff responded that none of them were in violation of the TOS.

They were almost all jailbait young female picture accounts, pushing taglines about how much they were interested in me. Obvious malicious spam.

I logged out for like a year or more.

I logged in again recently and they tried to sell me on a paid account and 'get verified' when I hadn't even been able to use the service. Gag.

Avoiding X is easy.

Yeah, I don't want to work that hard ;)

That's why I code most of my stuff in FreePascal. It will compile anywhere and will continue to compile for decades. Toaster approved.

A game of Minesweeper, being played on a tiling of hats instead of the usual tiling of squares. The status bar shows 58 mines marked out of 120 after more than five minutes of playing, suggesting that it's slow going. Also, a solid wall of mines prevents any progress around most of the boundary of the cleared area: it looks as if the only way through is in the bottom left, so it might be necessary to solve all the way along the bottom edge to get into the top right corner at all?

Since I'm on Debian the python3 version is not recent enough to install the pip package. This is why I am annoyed by versioning and fragmentation in the Linux ecosystem. Recent versions should be backwards compatible, especially with the same base version number.

I'm not surprised. Python devs instantly obsoleted billions and billions of lines of Python2.7 code with their sunset to v3. This is why I stopped programming in Python altogether.

[note] Blaise, a modern Pascal compiler has been released that completely eliminates compiler modes, free, string types, and other bothersome legacy features.

CrabPascal compiler is written in Rust.

Links are in the video description.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeYBFvTrqd4

"Welcome to the June 2026 edition of Pascal News. In this episode, we look at a surprisingly active month across the entire Pascal ecosystem — from new compiler activity, to the International Pascal Congress starting next week, to Embarcadero’s recent focus on regulation‑aware software development, and more."

Rumors of the death of Pascal language are greatly exaggerated.

[demo] https://files.octade.net/

I drafted a prototype for a PHP server application that automatically hashes and signs files and presents visitors with verification archives containing digital signatures for offline verification. The site allows readers to view, download, hash, and verify signatures of files. Since I occasionally like to publish puzzles and bits of cryptology, I just had to make this to scratch the old itch.

The neat thing about this design is that the current version has zero JavaScript. It uses CSS3 hacks with anchors and URL probing to emulate JavaScript and AJAX functionalities for modal dialogs to present server-side JSON data as HTML text.

When I upload files or documents to the server, the interface automatically presents them to the user in a grid. So now all I have to do is upload files and documents and the server generates the site.

The reader can then click buttons to hash, sign, view, verify, and download files.

GnuPG and OpenSSL Signatures are generated automatically on user demand. The site visitors can download these signatures and the public keys to verify files.

What should I add / change in the application and its interface?

What accessibility components might be warranted?

Should the application parse and present EXIF data, or is that too much?

SSH can use SSHFS to allow access to remote folders natively inside the OS file manager (Caja, Nautilus, PCManFM, Dolphin, etc.) Thus it is easy to mirror file folders or upload encrypted files to the VPS just by dragging with the mouse or doing a copy via CLI.

SSH can be configured to use with a VNC viewer to run a graphical desktop to control a remote machine. The user can set up a VPS as a graphical desktop system and log in to a window manager or desktop environment such as XFCE or FluxBox.

SSH can also be used to pipe remote mail folders to a local mbox folder so that a local email client can read mail without accessing the POP/IMAP server.

One thing that really makes me sad when the first line of a repo’s readme has “with help from Claude” is the apparent diligence with “giving credit” to a nonexistent person, as if Anthropic doesn’t have immense disdain and ingratitude for the struggles and meaning of the work they ate.

On top of that, it’s voluntary and free advertising. It’s like going out of your way to put “Made with the help of Microsoft 365” in the header of your documents. I cannot take someone like this seriously, but it crushes my soul all the same.

I feel the urge to make #curl faster and safer. And I feel like blogging about design choices, which I have no expectation of anyone having an interest in.

I've always been a PC user. Never cared for smartphones.

Nowadays you have to refer to everything you use as "web-based" if you're accessing something on PC "wtf is a web app??"

I remember when it was implied any tech you were working with was through a PC. I'd run Notepad and just start building HTML code with tables, then save it as .html to view a quick website I built. No mobile versions and CSS.

An idiot admires complexity, a genius admires simplicity.

I would be guzzling five cups of coffee a day even if it was bad for me.

"But what if those 'heretics' would suppress us if they have any power? What if they would use violence against us if they had any strength? What if they are tyrants, fascists, holocaust-deniers-but-also-promoters, kraterocrats?"

The war is collectivism vs individual identity and liberty. That has always been the war. There is no other war. If you join up with a collective identity, you are the oppressor. Freedom means being free to be who you are instead of being pressed into a mold for administrative or ideological convenience.

Most slaves love their slavery and have no concept of real freedom. The idea is foreign to them. So they replace freedom with license to fill the void. They march to the piping tune of liberation fronts and liberation theology and nation-saving movements and nation-saving theology. It's all satanic bullshit dreamed up by the ruling con artists.

If you want to pass laws to restrict the liberty of your neighbor you have no right to cry when they turn the tables and do the same to you. If you want to force your neighbor to agree to things, you have no right to complain when they turn the tables and do the same to you.

People who do not trust in the divine to render judgment seek to usurp his place. And they always carry out this usurpation in the name of some noble cause.

If you think I'm going to take sides, you are mistaken. Both sides are WRONG. Both sides are the baddies. There are no good guys in these wars.

The good guys refuse to participate in playtime with monsters.

Why the Inquisition Built the Surveillance State

https://clairesalerno.substack.com/p/why-the-inquisition-built-the-surveillance

The real motive behind web 2.0, web 3.0, the cloud, AI, and panopticon nonsense is to identify and isolate heretics.

"They began with the network. If you can find one suspected heretic and interrogate them about their associations, who they speak to, who they share meals with, whose homes they visit and which neighbours are sympathetic, you can build a list of names."

"Then, you visit each of those people on the list and ask them the same questions. From this you can build a map of the entire community, identifying relationships and flagging suspects."

"They used the social fabric of communities and rewarded those who denounced others. They reduced penalties for cooperation, and built the assumption that staying silent is itself suspicious."

"They made it so the rational choice for any individual in the community is to inform on neighbours before neighbours inform on them. This creates a self-policing community. The community does the work, with the institution as the receiving authority."

"Think about that for a moment, because it describes the current digital surveillance apparatus exactly."

The trinity is the golden calf at Sinai. When the Israelites came out of Egypt (the new covenant) they brought the trinity of Egypt with them in their hearts and minds.

You can take the Israelite out of Egypt, but you also need to take Egypt out of the Israelite! The trinity is the imaginary god of Egypt. The Christian religion is Egypt.

In order to enter the kingdom of God you must repent of worshiping the trinity. God the Father is not a trinity. Only the Father is God. The Christian doctrine of the trinity is the idol the prophets warned us about.

The Unitarian faith is the faith of the Apostles and the only true God. The Trinitarian faith is a false faith in a false, Greek, metaphyical construct.

The Bible is NOT a book of metaphysics. It uses spiritual examples and parables to describe concrete things. The Greco-Roman 'church fathers' poisoned the well by applying pagan metaphysics to the Bible, creating the cargo cult known as the Nicene Creed and the Athanasian Creed.

God the Father is a spirit. He is not a man. He did not incarnate as a man. He raised up and sent a man to be our sacrifice for sin. Everything the trinitarians teach twists the Bible into a lie.

The Christian religion is Egypt, Babylon, Assyria, Rome, Grecia, etc. The Christian religion is the culmination of the statue in Nebuchadnezzar's dream.

Come out of the religion and find the real Jesus and be free!

The promise of the new covenant is that when the new order came, those who follow God the Father will have no need of any teacher or bishop or hierarchy to tell them to know God. God said we would have no need of a man to be our teachers or spiritual fathers. God promised that all of us will know him directly and not need anyone other than Jesus to lead the way.

The Christian religion impersonates Jesus and stands in the way, usurping his throne, as prophesied.

Come out of the religion and find the real Jesus and be free!

The promise of the new covenant is that when the new order came, those who follow God the Father will have no need of any teacher or bishop or hierarchy to tell them to know God. God said we would have no need of a man to be our teachers or spiritual fathers. God promised that all of us will know him directly and not need anyone other than Jesus to lead the way.

The Christian religion impersonates Jesus and stands in the way, usurping his throne, as prophesied.

My search continues.

Will someone chime in with a list of bible software they have found useful? I'm using Linux and always on the lookout for new tools. Links would be helpful.

So far I have the applications: Xiphos, Bibletime, Widemargin, and Diatheke.

Finding that perfect specimen of a paper bible is like a treasure hunt. I found one good pocket edition with a readable font many years ago and I carried it everywhere 'religiously'.

Now I read 99% on a computer screen.

The Virgin Birth narrative is not in the Bible. You only think it is. Jesus is a man, not a 'god incarnate.'

Christian nativity scene showing baby Jesus in a manger padded with straw with Joseph and Miriam kneeling over the baby. The words, 'Baby God' run atop the scene, and the words, 'No Virgin Birth' run beneath the manger.

We wrote an honest comparison of Zerion against Signal, WhatsApp, Telegram, Threema, Wire, Session, Cwtch and Tox.

Honest meaning: Signal gets credit for pioneering post-quantum key exchange, Cwtch is genuinely close in spirit, and each app is the right call for some threat model.

Where Zerion stands alone: post-quantum encryption on every single message, and everything (including calls) over Tor.

Is there an ActivityPub platform that will host PDFs and the like; basically a PixelFed for documents?

Horseradish is a type of radish, with spicy flavour and eaten by horses. However this is simply partly true — the only accurate part is its strong taste. It also belongs to the Brassicaceae family (along with cabbage, mustard and, yes, radish).

If your website already has DNS set up, not hard at all.

If you need to point DNS to your domain, use a panel like HestiaCP or Webmin or Virtualmin.

Meme, showing a continuous circle of data breach messages from corporations… Ahaha you're not gonna believe this but we had a bit of a data breach. Your data is probably for sale online now. That means someone could easily impersonate you. Going forward we're gonna need more of your data to make sure its you.

First it was Frontpage, then along came NetObjects Fusion.
