You should really be careful with that as you might just invoke some ancient powers through an obscure string of characters. I'm not saying cthulu.

There are worse things out there than Great Old Ones. You might invoke Perl by accident.

[–] palordrolap@kbin.social 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Come now; Perl is one of the Great Old Ones.

[–] algernon@lemmy.ml 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Perl is what the Great Old Ones are afraid of, for It is so vast and powerful that even a Great Old One cannot comprehend Its true power.

Can we stop using that word now please ☠️

Sounds like someone has Perl Traumatic Stress Disorder. 😉

[–] algernon@lemmy.ml 4 points 10 months ago

Oh, sure, of course, my apologies. I hope my repeated utterances of the word will not summon Raku.

...fuck, I said it out loud.

It's real java bytecode. Fun fact; it ends at the first terminator byte. It won't summon any demons worst it will do is blow up your minecraft base.

Just add the letters MZ in front, paste it all in Notepad, save file as .exe, then run it.

Sit back and relax.

The ultimate test for a Lemmy reader app: does it seg fault?

[–] UnhingedStopa@sopuli.xyz 17 points 10 months ago

I'm impressed that didn't cause a segmentation fault.

This post may have crashed Voyager twice... Once when scrolling by it, again when trying to reply. I don't know why I can reply now.

Edit: lol I know why. My app auto updated at the same time I clicked reply. Perfect timing. Scrolling crash still unexplained though.

I specifically had to make sure not to use code which could be interpreted in a malicious way just in case this happened.

[–] jherazob@beehaw.org 3 points 10 months ago

It hasn't happened much, but i've loved the few real life versions of this strip that have happened with people posting it as a response

At first I cried because I thought I ruined someone's day, but then I saw what post it was on and now i'm laughing like an imp.
