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.

I am testing the recent Debian package. The app works well yet I see a few peeves.

I see no facility to passively serve a directory tree of files. This would be extremely useful. And I do mean EXTREMELY USEFUL. It would replace the need for running HTTP / FTP / SFTP etc. and keep it private over TOR.

I realize that things like OnionShare exist but these are dependent upon a web browser (insecure). I would like to see Briar able to serve a file listing with users able to share a directory and to select and download files within the app, as well as view static text and markdown files with clearnet URLs and includes disabled for security. The user could download files that automatically go to a downloads folder.

The app could be sandboxed by default. to prevent access to directories and files outside those specified by the user.

This would make Briar immensely useful and allow the creation of ad-hoc social network-type user groups and publications. Having this facility within a secure, non-browser, non-plugin, non-javascript interface used to be a thing many years ago, but for some reason all such apps have evaporated.

"I'm on a bit of a crusade."

I remember in my early youth when the climate crisis was impending global cooling and ice age that was going to freeze us all to death. When that dog didn't hunt, and people realized we were coming out of an ice age instead of going into one, the script was changed.

Then they hyped acid rain gonna kill us all for a decade.

Then they hyped 'pole shift' gonna kill us all.

Then they hyped earth's rotation would shift and kill us all.

Then they changed the script to global warming gonna bake us all to death.

Then they added that eating meat was killing the earth since all the cow farts would cause global warming.

Then they changed the script to, 'climate change' since the nordic ice core data shows the current average temperatures are lower than they were for most of human history.

Newsflash: the climate has always been changing for all of history. It's called weather.

You need a better god for your crusade.

The only crisis is histrionics and hysteria of people with first world problems and too much free time to peddle their existential delusions for profit.

Hexlish Alphabet for English, Constructed Languages and Cryptography: Automatic, Structural Compression with a Phonetic Hexadecimal Alphabet

DOI : https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.13139469

Hexlish is a legible, sixteen-letter alphabet for writing the English language and for encoding text as legible base 16 or compressed binary. Texts composed using the alphabet are automatically compressed by exactly fifty percent when converted from Hexlish characters into binary characters. Although technically lossy, this syntactic compression enables recovery of the correct English letters via syntactic reconstruction. The implementer can predict the size of the compressed binary file and the size of the text that will result from decompression. Generally it is intuitive to recognize English alphabet analogues to Hexlish words. This makes Hexlish a legible alternative to the standard hexadecimal alphabet.

Mortality sucks. Many others are suffering from being sad and lonely too. Everyone is so busy just trying to survive these days that the energy to reach out is gone halfway through the work day.

Speaking of unsupervised critters I had a laugh today.

I got out of my car to walk into the store to buy milk. Walking past another car that was parked and running, the electric window went down. Sitting in the driver seat was a beautiful small, black dog wagging her tail and looking intently at me, pining for attention. It seems she figured out how to press the electric window button. The A/C was running so she wasn't in danger of overheating.

I stepped over to the furball and I greeted her and I let her sniff me. She got excited to meet me so I pet her for a moment. Then I went into the store and asked the first person I saw if she has the black dog. A look of alarm formed on her face, and she frantically if the dog had gotten out as she head out the door. I followed her out as far as the door as she checked to make sure her critter was OK. As she came back I told her how the dog operated the window switch to wind it down and greet me. "Your dog is a love monster", I chuckled.

I was chuckling and very amused.

The lady came back in to pay. While paying for her groceries, she told me some one dumped the dog off at the end of her driveway. She adopted it. I remember exclaiming, "What is wrong with people?"

Anyway, that dog was so friendly and personable. She was so bent on getting attention that she wound down the window so she could stick her head out and say hi. The event was heartwarming.

In the linked paper, Carl D. Franklin digs deep into the history of the tetragrammaton and debunks some of the myths commonly accepted as fact. The paper is part of a series and well worth the read for anyone interested in textual criticism or translation.

PDF: https://www.cbcg.org/franklin/debunking2.pdf

"Is it true that the name Jehovah borrowed its vowels from Adonai?"

A lot of religious and textual myths have resulting in mass misconceptions about biblical textual history and meaning. Some of the myths misrepresent the tetragrammaton, or the name of God. This eventually led to the creation of the artificial name, Yahweh, which is not a Hebrew word, and is in fact a cleverly disguised classical Latin name for Jove. The author defrocks the Galatinus origin myth, proving the name JEHOVAH was in use long before Galatinus.

The sacred name mythos is popular in some Christian and Jewish sects as well as among the Hebrew Roots movement. This paper exposes some of the false history and baseless assertions about the pronunciation of the tetragrammaton. As it turns out, the early Masoretes and the Reformers as well as some early Catholics had gotten it right - JEHOVAH is the correctly preserved pronunciation of the name of God. The name was never 'lost' and it has been known all through recorded history, if even only by a few.

"If you want to sell someone something, you first have to convince them that they need it. This rationalization is the likely source of a fundamental myth of the American public school system: that before the proliferation of compulsory, tax-payer funded schooling, Americans were ignorant and mostly illiterate."

"Authority will always try to convince you how helpless and bereft you would be without the authority. Americans were neither illiterate nor ignorant before forced schooling. Compulsory, tax-payer funded education has not been an overall improvement for the population, despite the billions of dollars and wasted hours spent on it. To claim Americans need government schools to learn is a grab for power and control, and ignores centuries’ worth of data and lived experience."

'Libertarian' sounds like the opening to a polisci joke.

Democracy is a fascist slave system and it is working exactly as intended. The dumb helots and serfs get to pick sock puppets while the real rulers aren't even mentioned by name.

"America is asleep to the danger that confronts us. Since the 1960s, there has been a concerted effort on the part of radical Islamists to infiltrate our major institutions."

But beware the one Islamic bogey man to the seventy-two actual enemies already entrenched in the system!

"So how many cups a day equate to a serving of vegetables??"

This was done to ensure that the woman and her children would not be destitute or left without good inheritance. The commandment for a 'brother' to take his dead brother's wife does not necessarily mean a fraternal brother from the same parents--any brother in the tribe, or a kinsman, is what is meant there. The words, 'brother', 'sister' and such were more flexible anciently, and that flexibility still exists when using English slang, such as, 'hey my brother' or 'you go sister' ...

"Libertarianism is an appealing idea if you hold human agency and freedom above all else. However, it has its weaknesses. Freedom is certainly worth having, but at what cost?"

The author wrongly asserts that conservatives want to limit personal freedom and that liberals promote personal freedom. This claim is pure horseshit. Conservatives are merely liberal lite, and both crush personal liberty in deference to the worship of the state.

People mistake words for reality, and get jammed up in mental servitude to their idols.

Now take Libertarianism and its words. They are just words. They claim to believe this and that and to promote this and that. But if you look at the operations of their political party, and their different chapters among the states, you see the same bullshit we find in the Democrat and Republican parties.

Libertarians suffer from the same rings of power syndrome that afflicts people who claim other political ideologies. What they say on the surface would never be implemented in real life once they seized the political machinery. It's all just words with no substance, just like almost everything said by liberals and conservatives is just words without substance.

The author states:

"Liberals do this by limiting the ability of some to gain disproportionate power over the group and exploiting that power for their own ends. "

Conservatives obsess with obtaining economic power over others. They mobilize economic pressure to force others to submit to their will. Yet in recent years the liberals have taken this cue and added that tactic to their arsenal of tricks for forcing people and nations into submission.

The political factions want power to rule, plain and simple. They will use whatever words they think are effective in manufacturing your consent to their power over you. Whether they are liberal, conservative, or libertarian, their main goal is to have the power of the state and its police and armies to regulate your life as they see fit. There is no love in what they do. You, your vote, your labor, your taxes are just a means to an end and nice-sounding policies and ideologies are bait for the trap.

"And I see how this looser approach to worship is reactionary to what's perceived as 'dry religion' of more traditional liturgies. But I'm appreciating the richness, thoughtfulness, and depth woven into liturgical worship. I think evangelicalism can gain a lot from it."

I think the Christian religion can gain a lot from the gospel instead of displays of religious fervor.

The Pharisees were picture-perfect at outward professions and shows of 'visible worship'. They had a beautiful temple and a very orderly liturgy. Christ called his disciples to something greater.

"The kingdom comes not with observation."

"Repent" means "turn the mind". Turn the mind from what, to what?

Modern Christians generally say to turn from sin and become religious.

But that is NOT how the bible defines repentance.

Sin is the symptom of the thing men need to repent of. The core cause of sin is idolatry--idols--false gods, false christs, false gospels, false teachings, and false priorities. That's why repentance is a thing of the mind. We have too much religion teaching people to struggle with their sinful flesh or improve their religious optics and not enough raw faith teaching the good news that one man on Golgatha already defeated that monster. We cannot add to Christ's work on the cross and yield right results.

Once repentance comes, outward shows of piety are meaningless.

Repeat that meme a million times and expect protests in front of libraries. In order to protest the imagined censorship the protestors will burn down the libraries in rage, destroying all the books. Then the protestors on the other side can complain about the fire departments failing to save all the books.

A strong man can rise up and promise to save us from undocumented librarians.

And if God bonks you on the head, nobody will believe it, and nobody will care, until it is their turn to get bonked on yon noggin.

People who speak of 'God's plan' and 'God's will usually don't know what they are talking about.

It also doesn't surprise me that someone from China would want God to be against the USA, just as some evangelical in USA would want God to be against China.

Newsflash: God is against all religious partisans because they don't do what he said to do, which is respect your neighbor as yourself. He hasn't destroyed them all yet, so maybe the doomsday prophecies need to stop. Every ounce of energy used to blame others for something is an ounce of energy not used to do something constructive right now.

Many men wish to confine His creation to their own mental cages.

I do not agree that Job is a work of fiction. There was an ancient man named Job. Events from his life were re-written and poetically embellished into a new story that tells the future. Think traditional histories meet Aesop's Fables meets Jehovah's long-term plans, and that is a half-decent way to describe the purpose of the Bible. The writers were seized upon by the Holy Spirit, and driven to write the words they produced. None of it was the mere product of a human mind--a greater mind was in those men moving them exactly how to manifest the future on scrolls and parchments.

God's concern is not over teaching history. His concern is the culmination of history, the end of history and the new beginning of a new history described far in advance--showing the pattern of a new reality for man to come in the far distant future. The Book of Job, like the Book of Jonah, is prophecy about the coming of Jesus of Nazareth and the birth of a new creation flowing out from the Nazarene.

In fact, the entire Old Testament is about Jesus of Nazareth:

"And the Father himself, which hath sent me, HATH BORNE WITNESS OF ME. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. And ye have not his WORD abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not. Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: AND THEY ARE THEY WHICH TESTIFY OF ME."

The Old Testament books were not written to instruct us in history. They were written to identify the Son of Man who would come into the world and spread the knowledge of the Father's love abroad into all the nations. Even though there are records of ancient historical people in those books, the way they are presented is so as to tell us who those people foreshadow and symbolize--the man Jesus Christ and the new kingdom he would establish for the ages ahead.

Revelation was dictated to a man named John on the Isle of Patmos. John had visions and he was told what to write in the visions. The book of Genesis was written in the same way. It was visions given to Moses, telling him what to write. The Book of Genesis and the Book of Revelation are the exact same story shown in different idioms of their respective ages.

Genesis uses a pastiche of older ancestral histories organized like lego blocks to build the future God has planned. So although based loosely upon real ancestral histories, Genesis is not meant to be read literally or as a history. It is meant to be read to foretell a far distant future--the day and age that we currently inhabit.

Revelation tells roughly the same plan but is more focused on the time nearer Christ's ministry. Revelation uses more direct symbols for the future as opposed to the Genesis use of ancestral totem patchworked as a future mosaic.

Then of course both Christ and the Father state plainly that they teach in parables.

Say bye bye to SystemD.

If you must use Linux for work stuff and development and need dependability then Debian Stable or Testing will usually give the least headaches. If you like self-flagellating to fix all the latest breaking changes yourself then maybe Arch Linux will be your preferred punisher.

If you want to use the vast Arch AUR but don't want to piece together your system you can try Manjaro, which uses Arch but comes pre-built similar to Linux Mint.

If you're into pen testing then ParrotOS has the tools bundled ready to roll.

If you're paranoid there is Whonix, Qubes, and Tails.

If you need ultra-fast with ultra-low resource usage you might try Mabox, TinyCore, Puppy, or Slitaz.

If you are sick of all the crazy quirks and constant changes you can ditch *nix altogether and try running Haiku OS.

Or you can join the Luddite club, drop your computer off a cliff, and get farmin'. Cuz with all these conflicting and competing choices, all of which suck time like a tornado, I'm beginning to think that back breaking work in the sun and rain is better than a zillion hours of busy work keeping up with pointless changes in software. Plus calloused hands are cooler than carpal tunnel keyboard mitts.
