privileged things (+?)
Talked to our dad about wanting to get a hybrid or electric vehicle (we've mentioned this desire several times before) and asked for advice on how to save up money for one and his response was "why don't you go to local dealers and look at used ones, I'll help you buy one if it's something you feel strongly about"
so uh, probably going to go to a carmax today and ask to see some cars
this is kind of sudden and not what I was expecting to happen
unicode, chaos magick, possible time travel, long, rollercoaster of a post
Today in "things that are extremely fucking weird in Unicode": ⍼
U+237C, aka RIGHT ANGLE WITH DOWNWARDS ZIGZAG ARROW, aka "something that makes no sense mathematically or in a graph".
Until you find out it's very, very nearly the exact form of the "ellis sigil", or the "linking sigil", commonly used in occult or chaos magick, as seen here.
This is the only thing that looks at all similar to U+237C, and U+237C doesn't look anything like anything I've ever seen in any actual tech usage or math, which is interesting as it purports to be a "math symbol".
This would be at least mystery solved as to how it could've happened, albeit weirdly: someone snuck in a chaos magick symbol and said it was from math.
Except the ellis sigil was created in 2003.
Unicode 3.2, released in 2002, contained this nonsense symbol.
I have no answers for why.
@monorail I take back what I said about them being mostly better than mm2wood
mm2intro is awful
@monorail after you showed us that mm2wood.mid youtube recommended us this and it turns out there's a whole set of bad midis of mm2
though mm2wood seems to be the worst of the bunch by a fair margin
re: ph -, mh -, plural
ph-wise it feels like we need food but also like we're full? maybe we had something yesterday that had gone bad or something >.<
okay and then we got four emails in rapid succession that say, in order,
-"Hello, Status of following WO has been changed" (followed by the work order number and some minor details)
-a completely blank email with no subject
-"Work order has been placed on hold" in the subject line, with body text "Hello," and nothing else
-"Hello, a maintenance member will contact you shortly"
I think something is wrong with the ticketing system
