PATACHU/darkdoomer/bestfilly/ spammedthe board just earlier. Now this thread he posted is his art. he does this constantly on multiple boards and is a failed furfag artist(thats why his art looks like shit) he uses a proxy to samefag and larp as different anons and respond, dont respond to bait or retardation, its his way of getting off. even left his name in file name this time. hes also a pedo with tons of kiwiniggerfarmsAlts to defend his name, and lie. howdy frenchman my exposè is coming along great

>>42353000 (OP)
Oh mighty coding mare, what is the best code to learn in current year? Asking for a friend.

>>42353000 (OP)

Where is the OP text? The thread used to have a very detailed list of everything.

>>42353606
A downie in the OP image should've already told you that this is a bad actor thread, and you should let it die before remaking the thread properly.

Wait...Are you the guys from the AI art thread losing your mind about some based drawfag again?

>>42353776
they are, you can see in the thread them constantly seething about the said artist, it's quite sad how obsessed everyone in there is.

>>42353787
Reminder Patachu shilled $20 counter pride flag commissions, and his art is being posted everywhere, he used to be a furry too and still draw B&thro.

Ruby

>>42356182
There are like 50 OCs named Ruby.

I'm sure this concept has been explored before, but I like the idea of spells being written like code that unicorns can interpret and perform.

>>42353198
It depends on your goals. Python is easy and good for automation scripts. Lua is also easy and used in games like Garry's
Mod and Roblox. JavaScript is the language of web browsers and practically essential knowledge for web developers. Go is a bit more low-level, but it's a simple language with a great standard library. C is difficult (though easier than you might think) but learning it is very valuable.

Which Linux distro are the ponies using?

>>42363405
>Linux
>Windows
>MacOS

They use their own superios MareOS running on Marehitecture.

>>42363405
they don't even know what is Linux.
the closest thing to it would be that pony's custom boot disk embedding a disk manager and other tools that makes it a whole operating system instead of having the computer to boot directly on the program.

TSCM - time-shared computing management, a text based OS that's used in mainframes. close to UNIX.

Interface Manager, previously Disk Manager but now with a GUI is more for regular users. sup

COGIT, like collaborative organization general information technologies or something is omnipresent in administration, finance etc. it comes with a database, spreadsheet and its own programming language, assume it's close to IBM systems.

>>42361556

You know the funny thing, being ponies, they'd assume magic is universal, and as that's the most advanced field by light-years for them, they'd probably put those down with instructions instead of atoms, wave lengths being arcana lengths, etc.

Loss?

>>42380468
Perhaps one day we'll realize that druids, sorcerers, and witches were far more advanced than we gave them credit for; despite our own scientific progress and technological achievements.
Whereas we pursued science and technology, Equestria developed magic and witchcraft to extraordinary levels. That's what they had. From the very beginning, their path diverged from ours. The first unicorns may have been born from a genetic mutation, an early horse developing a horn that could channel natural energy. Others adapted differently: some grew wings to survive in highlands or mountain ranges, others developed fins to thrive in aquatic environments, much like dolphins or seals.
In a way, ponies are like sharks: evolutionary apexes so perfectly suited to their world that little physical change was needed over time. Unicorns, in particular, evolved to form dense networks of neural pathways around their horns, allowing them to manipulate electromagnetic fields, gravitational resonance, or even spacetime curvature—without ever needing to understand these forces in the scientific terms we use.
They don't need to understand Maxwell's equations to shape light, nor Planck's constants to teleport. Just as early humans didn't need Newton to know that apples fall, unicorns used intuition, instinct, and trial over centuries, possibly millennia to master what they call "magic."
It wasn't until unicorn scholars like Starswirl the Bearded began recording, systematizing, and teaching magic that their civilization started resembling what we'd consider scientific. In some ways, Starswirl was their Einstein, bridging intuition and theory, turning practice into understanding.
In short: they built a civilization from mysticism upward. We built ours from observation down. Both roads led to something remarkable but we would have much to discover from ponies than they would have to discover from us.
Except for that rich filly, who believes a GPU that costs a few thousand dollars can have any form of value, in Equestria.

>The masses were milling about the school, chattering and laughing the day away.
>Applejack tried to calm her breathing as she made her final approach, having pushed her already
exhausted body to try and arrive on time.
>She was relieved when Cheerilee allowed her into the building.
>Applejack was given a simple slip of paper and directed behind a curtain to cast her vote.
>She unfolded it to make her mark.
“Let’s see. Rob or… huh. I didn’t know she had a name.”
>She couldn’t help but feel a bit embarrassed for having always called her “mayor”.
>Perhaps an apology was in order?
>It didn’t matter.
>She cast her ballot and made her way out into the crowd, finding the mayor with little trouble.
>She had a look of quiet contentment on her face, as though she were totally relaxed, without a care in the world.
“Whew. Darn near missed it.”
>”I wanted to thank you for everything, Applejack.”
“Don’t you fret. Gotta take care of my community.”
>She looked Applejack dead in the eye, a smile still adorning her face, but eyes misty.
>”You’ve been a key component of my campaign, and a valuable asset. Had it not been for your
intervention, any attempt at preserving Ponyville- at preserving our HOME, and defending the rights and wellbeing of those who-“
“Y’all rehearsed this.”
>The mayor blushed a bit and rubbed the back of her head, the smile having grown sheepish.
>”Does it show? I figured I should probably start acting like a mayor while I still had the chance, and be a ruler instead of a leader.”
“What’s the difference?”
>”Whoever wins, you’re going to find out.”
>Applejack couldn’t help but grimace at the foreboding words.
>The doors to the schoolhouse opened up, and Cheerilee exited the building.
>”Alright, everypony! The polls have closed, and we’ll begin counting immediately and we’re done
counting.”
“That fast?”
>”Rob is the winner!”
“Now hold on just a moment!”
>Applejack began pushing her way through the crowd, eyes locked on Cheerilee.
“And how do we know you ain’t cheating?”
>”Uh…”
“We demand a recount! And I intend to see every single one of those ballots to make sure there’s no
funny business!”
>”Pinkie?”
>Pinkie Pie bounced out of the schoolhouse with a small burlap bag in tow.
>She spilled the contents on the ground before jumping on top of the pile.
>Pinkie rapidly tossed them over her back, throwing nearly all of them into a surprisingly orderly stack.
>A single ballot was tossed outward, with the word “invalid” stamped on it in bright red.
>Applejack recognized that pencil mark.
>Her ballot had been discarded.
>Pinkie concluded her count and faced the crowd to announce the final tally.
>”One for the mayor, four-hundred and eighty-seven for Rob!”
>”OH COME ON!”
>The former mayor pushed her way through the crowd, her rage barely contained.

>>42382713
>”After all I’ve done for this community, not a SINGLE one of you voted for me? Even after I landed that water contract with Cloudsdale so you STUPID bird brains wouldn’t be chronically unemployed? Even though I got this town added to the rail network so you MUD PONY dirt farmers would actually be able to EXPORT some of your worm filled produce?”
“Uh, miss mayor? Maybe it ain’t smart to yell at them?”
>”That’s good advice. I’m ignoring it. Ahem! I’ve sat through your puerile disputes about EVERYTHING imaginable: fences being built several METERS over property lines, unauthorized road blockages for spontaneous singing, HEATED arguments over what COLOUR of PETUNIAS we’re allowed to grow in our WINDOW BOXES! This town wouldn’t have a LIBRARY without me, it wouldn’t have MEDICAL SERVICES without me, it wouldn’t have WASTE COLLECTION without me, and it most CERTAINLY wouldn’t have this schoolhouse! Hay! It wouldn’t even EXIST if I hadn’t organized the fire brigade! You have betrayed the ONLY friend this town has ever had, and for what? A freaky alien that you know NOTHING about? What are his policies? What are his credentials? Is he LITERATE? Is he even SAPIENT? This THING will bring RUIN to this community, and each and every one of you DESERVES what happens next! ALL HAIL ROB, KING OF THE ASHES!”
>She stormed off.
>The crowd seemed eager to get out of her way.
“Uh… I’d better go after her.”
>Applejack ran off after her, but was quickly intercepted by Twilight.
>”I’m sorry.”
>Twilight appeared to be genuinely penitent, her expression vacant, her gaze distant, and her tone
somber.
“I knew you’d play dirty, but I wasn’t expecting y’all to cheat.”
>”I didn’t cheat! Everything I did was entirely legal.”
>Applejack couldn’t help but scoff.
“Legal? Then why wasn’t my vote counted?”
>”I read the election law, Applejack. I read the whole thing thoroughly.”
>Applejack just stared at her.
>”The farm isn’t within the city limits, it’s on incorporated land. You’re technically not a resident.”
>Of course.
>”I managed to prevent the rest of your family from voting. Though I’m not entirely sure how you managed to get through.”
“Well… I guess that ain’t cheating then. Don’t sit right by me… Still, I can’t fault ya. I’m goin’ even
lower after all.”
>”You’re going- the election’s over, Applejack.”
“I’d noticed.”
>Twilight gave her a confused stare.
“So, how does it feel?”
>”At the moment? Perplexing. But just a few minutes ago… I felt empty. I got what I was working for,
but I don’t think I got what I wanted.”
“I don’t think any of us are getting what we want out of this. Well, those repulsive journalists and
academics might.”
>”You didn’t like them either?”

>>42382716
“Wait, they were harassing you too?”
>”I wouldn’t say HARASSING. Well, News Wars did a bit, I think they’re reporting that I drink filly blood or something like that. But the others were really friendly, and wanted to know all about his heroic upbringing and how he defied all the odds in a kingdom that hated how he was born.”
…
“None of that happened.”
>”Which is exactly why I despise them! They’re not trying to inform or document, they’re… they’re just making stuff up! Pushing a narrative! They’re FABRICATING history! Do you have any idea how much trouble this will cause future historians?”
“Yeah, it’s pretty bad. Apparently, I sleep with dogs. If you’ll excuse me, I have a mayor to console.”
>”Maybe I should-”
“She probably don’t wanna see you.”
>Twilight recoiled as though she’d been struck.
>But she knew it was true.
>It didn’t take long for Applejack to track down the mayor.
>She was seated on a bench by the riverside, quietly staring at the stream.
>Applejack quietly sat down next to her.
>The water was surprisingly clear, giving them a view of a school of minnows.
>”The fish don’t wonder where water comes from. They simply assume that it will always be there.”
>Applejack wasn’t sure what to say, so she simply stayed quiet.
>”I wonder if they curse the rainclouds for blocking the sun.”
>Her anger had faded, leaving something much more destructive in its wake.
“It’s a mite early to give up, miss mayor.”
>”I’m not the mayor anymore, Applejack. Please. Call me Ivory Scroll.”
“I wouldn’t be so sure, Ivory. Twi looked mighty guilty. I wouldn’t be surprised if the ballot box was stuffed somehow.”
>”Does it matter? Even if you get rid of that, I still lose.”
“’Course it matters! It’s the principle of the thing!”
>”Democracy doesn’t run on principles, Applejack. You should know that by now.”
>She was right, of course.
“I’m still going to fight this.”
>”Fight it? I got ONE vote, Applejack. ONE. I knew I was going to lose, but-”
>She sniffled, not quite managing to hold back the tears.
>”I thought that at least a few of them might appreciate me.”
>Applejack started patting her on the back, trying to console the broken bureaucrat.
“Ya thought you’d lose?”
>She nodded before looking at Applejack once more, forcing a smile that didn’t come close to touching her eyes.
>”It was always a lost cause, I just… I wanted at least some of them to remember me fondly. Maybe convince a few of them that I wasn’t so bad after all. If I thought I could win, I’d have voted for myself.”
“Wait just a darn second, y’all didn’t vote for yourself? Then who was the ballot from?”
>”I thought it was you.”
“Mine got rejected. All the Apple votes did. That means somepony else DID vote for you! But who?”

>>42382720
>Derpy marched up to the pair with a big grin on her face and a spring in her step.
>She patted the mayor on the head before flying away.
“Well, mystery solved, I guess.”
>”Well, at least I have two friends in this town. I wish I had some way to repay you for all your kindness, loyalty, and generosity.”
“I’m Applejack, not- no matter. Do y’all need a place to stay?”
>”I don’t understand.”
“Well, I don’t know how long this will take to straighten out. I figured that given you’re unemployed at the moment, you might need some help getting by for a while. We’ve got a guest room.”
>”You- you’re offering to help me? Even more?”
“Uh… yeah?”
>”And you know that I can’t give you any favors? You’re not lobbying for anything? You’re just… helping me?”
>She finally broke down, shamelessly sobbing.
>Applejack was looking around for some kind of excuse to remove herself from the situation, but couldn’t find any.
>She was stuck just standing there, next to the former mayor as she went through her breakdown.
>But as awkward and uncomfortable as it may have been, all things are transient.
>Time invariably wipes everything away, both good and bad.
>And eventually, this suffering had to pass.
>”Thank you, Applejack. You truly are my very best friend.”
“How could I be your best friend? I hardly know you at all.”
>”I know… But I don’t have a future in Ponyville. I’ll have to move on. But I’m glad to know that, no matter what happens, I have a friend here.”
“Don’t forget D.”
>”Two friends here.”
“Well, I encourage you to stick around. I’m a might more cunning than I let on, you know. If I were a gamblin’ mare, my bits would still be on you.”
>”It’s over, Applejack.”
“Not yet it ain’t. I wanted to win the right way, but I ain’t above fighting dirty. See, Twi has a big weakness. She tends to hyperfixate on whatever’s in front of her, and she can’t see the forest for the trees. While it certainly ain’t a sure thing, I reckon you’ve still got a good shot.”
>”You’re not going to get the election overturned, Applejack. It’s time for me to move on.”
“At least wait until Monday.”
>”What happens on Monday? It’s just- oh!”
>The mayor looked up at her.
>She blinked slowly a few times before standing.
>She wiped away her tears and put a wicked grin on her face.

VAGABOND 5: ONLINE
VAGABOND 6: ONLINE

Bucephalus has successfully bootstrapped into total control of the defective Terracom server.
As expected, the entirety of the fault was caused by a simple logic loop, though it still appears as though it were one caused by outside interference rather than a design flaw. All hardware appears to be intact. Interestingly, some residual data exists from previous attempts at interaction. It can now be safely concluded that the Vagabond probes are the first users in over a thousand local years. The prior user appears to have been attempting to debug the system, but was unable to gain sufficient control over the underlying systems.

Server activity confirms that, while the system was interacting with Vagabond 5 in some unknown manner, it was not mimicking Vagabond’s signals. Bucephalus has halted this behavior, and is now only in contact with a single instance of Vagabond 5. This unexpectedly halted the storms that raged around the island, in addition to ending the mysterious darkening effect. Video footage recovered from the remaining Vagabond 5 appears to be heavily corrupted, but some data was recoverable.

The recovered footage depicts the area existing in an apparent state of superposition, wherein Vagabond 5 was in numerous positions at once, and observing from numerous locations at once. There exists footage of it being destroyed, being reformed, emerging from the soil, falling from the heavens, and much more. Furthermore, the internal clock of the remaining Vagabond 5 has advanced by several millennia, and the dramatic wear and tear and radical decrease in voltage coming from its radiovoltaic battery supports this assertion. It appears as though, through some unknown means, Vagabond has aged an incredible amount of time in a short period.

How such a thing is possible remains unknown. While incredibly unlikely, the most probable fault is an incredibly specific series of sensor faults and memory corruptions occurring at once. Less likely hypotheses include deliberately incorrect data being sent to Bucephalus by intelligent actors who have somehow gained deep insight into Bucephalus’ computation architecture without being detected, or a complete breakdown in linear time.

The local Teracom server remains non-operational as the logic loop persists. While halting the subroutines that were causing interference with Vagabond 5 was simple, the underlying issue will take some time to resolve, as the chaotic nature of the central systems render them too volatile to manipulate unless they happen to be executing the right instructions. Bucephalus will wait for an opportunity.

>>42382729
VAGABOND 6: UPLINK ESTABLISHED

The rapidly progressing understanding of the Terracom servers has allowed for further insight into many of the anomalous structures that have been detected. These anomalies have been re-designated as transceivers, as they both send and receive Terracom signals. Though there is yet insufficient data to explain the function of these transceivers, some insight into how they work has been established.

Transceivers are ambulatory masses consisting primarily of polyvinyl chloride and acrylonitrile polymers. There appear to be 6 fundamental designs, though there are countless derivations and deviations from these forms. They send and receive signals through antennae and emitters either perched on their front, on their back, or embedded within. How these systems are powered remains unknown, however, each signal sent and received by these transceivers has been associated with some momentum loss in Teracom servers. It appears that they are somehow broadcasting geothermal energy over great distances, allowing locomotion and more.

The mechanism through which such a feat would be accomplished is completely unknown, however, it could be one of the most important discoveries in human history if it is in fact true. The primitive structure of their computation systems and the inefficiency of their geothermal plants suggest that, were humans capable of wielding this power, they would be capable of feats far greater than anything that has been witnessed here.
