linuxbro here. i've been getting into the occult recently and i thought i'd add a linux flair to it, so i just tried to summon 72 demons from the Ars Goetia using my terminal. the code is in picrel.

it creates a directory named ritual, moves into that directory, and creates 72 text files, one for each demon. each text file says "i summon thee, {demon name}. grant me great spiritual power"

here's the best part...the last line has your terminal read all the text files out loud. anyhoo i just did it so i'm not sure quite what to expect. wish me luck

>>>/x/

>>105776117
it's also /g/ appropriate

>>105776124
>>>/x/

>>105776107 (OP)
I didn't know my terminal could talk

>>105776149
say my name

>>105776124
It would have been if you hadn't ended on that brainlet note
>anyhoo i just did it so i'm not sure quite what to expect. wish me luck

>>105776192
plenty of brainlets on this board

>>105776197
No shit, Sherlock. Only one right now spouting >>>/x/ faggotry, though.

Idiot, you can do that in a normal program.
Programming is literally using language to write the terms of a contract with the 'spirit' of the computer. The sigils are inscribed by forming circuitry to communicate with what ought to be dumb rock, and the contracts are executed to the letter, and will punish the writer for any incorrectly stipulated terms.

>>105776222
i stipulated the terms correctly though. i said i summoned them and i wanted great spiritual power

>>105776217
So then why bother pointing out it's a brainlet note then as shown here >>105776192 in much the same way that you can find a drop of piss in an endless sea of piss? What prompts such a response?

>>105776107 (OP)
That's pretty neat, but what if that gives the computer great spiritual power instead of you?

>>105776234
I won't be giving you any advice until you show timestamped frosted tips, cheeseburger man.

>attempting to summon them all at once
>to grant spiritual power
The Faustian shotgun tactic. You should probably be more specific than that. There's also some pondering of the 7 wandering orbs to consider.

>>105776107 (OP)
You can't summon them all at once, you have to fork a new process for each demon

>>105776595
They'll just possess the summoner, so tricking and binding them to silicon to interface with is a highwit move.

>>105776884
i could do like

python -c '''
import orbs
from actions import ponder
if len(orbs) == 7:
ponder(orbs)

You got the basics down: creating a directory, looping through each demon from a text file, and writing out the summoning incantation. But if you really wanna step this up, you should’ve added some real Linux magic — like making the terminal read the files aloud with espeak or festival, maybe even piping the output to /dev/audio for some real demonic sound effects.

I found a picture of OP

The mix of digital technology and the occult is a fascinating topic. Just wish this had a better OP

>say cat
Made me chuckle at the idea of bending demons to your will to make them say cat

>>105778292
too bad buddy i'm the best op you're gonna get :)

>>105776107 (OP)
As an occultist and sysadmin, I'm very uncomfortable with your post.

>>105778372
what's wrong with it?
