    Amateurs.

    Seals of Solomon work best when invoked at the appointed day and time. If your motherboard battery dies, then every demon you’ve captur-

    Oh no! I just remembered a chaos demon I trapped in a Gateway PC from 1998!

      A microscopic megastructure would be just a structure. I would argue that electronics are more like milliscopic decastructures. Or CPU-level stuff could arguably be nanoscopic kilostructures.

    This is a single-layer PCB, neither microscopic nor semiconducting. Rather impressive routing but chip design is at a whole new level that doesn’t fit in this little JPEG

    Anyone ever heard of a symbolic Hieronymus Machine?

    I was fascinated by the concept when i was younger, though I’ve always assumed it was bullshit.

    Engineers are wizards, able to animate silicon rocks by enscribing them with language incomprehensible to normal people.

    I let my CPU run without the cooling fans when the demons don’t do my bidding 💕 So that they feel more at home

      You spin me right round, baby, right round.
      Like a record, baby, right round, round, round.

      Is this using sitelen mun? I’ve always wondered what that would look like for more complex sentences.

      Except… sitelen mun doesn’t merge circles like that, I think. So is this another way of writing Gallifreyan, or is this from somewhere in Doctor Who?

    Meanwhile, printers have been inhabited, programmed, and manufactured by Satan since their invention.

    So, I mean… I don’t see what the issue is. It’s not like we’re not used to demonic infused computing.

      No it’s not Satan, Blood Magic always takes its toll eventually. It’s why they need periodic blood sacrifices to operate properly.

        It’s worse now. HP ink is more valuable per ounce than blood.

        How fortunate would we all be to have the glorious HP CMYK following through our veins?

    You act like having bedeviled computing is a bad thing, I’ll have you know my old computer has tons of demons operating in the background and I still don’t know how it works or what the angels are doing.
