Monkey Raptor V.2

I watched Samson and Delilah (1984 - TV movie) because, honestly, I thought it would be funny. It delivered. 📜 The Era Shall we? 🙂 Let's briefly summarise the Samson era. It was in pre-king time — Book of Judges. Israel wasn't even unified ("tribal confederacy"), hence the "judges" to lead (or protect) them. Samson was the last of the judges in the Book of Judges — Samuel is considered the last of the judges before the unification ➡️ King Saul ➡️ King David. The Samson story took place in ~1200-1000 B.C. Let's take the average, 1100 B.C. , somewhere in Middle East vast region. Without the number, we might still roughly deduce that the era was sometime before the Classical Greece. In another words, Romans were still, well, had not even begun to call themselves "Romans" yet... Give or take. 🤷‍♂️ 🎬 The Take The plot is actually very similar to the original story. Hollywood usually doesn't do that. And then... Let's s...

I own a Lenovo Legion — 15ACH6 laptop. It's past warranty period. I also have posted about the term Legion . Highly possible this is a 🐞 bug from Lenovo within the overall interconnected Ryzen (AMD) processor, Radeon GPU (onboard), NVIDIA GPU, and the power management. My other Lenovo (Lenovo Flex 5 — also post-warranty) with Intel processor, this blank never happened, ever. I mean, usually manufacturers don't deliberately put subroutines to make the customers stressed out and calling customer service, right? Right? 🤔 Right. 🤷 So indeed it is a bug... Aside from the fact that this blank screen appeared conveniently when the warranty period was ended. 😂 Of course it is a jest. It could be related to the driver updates on specific hardware and other "whoopsies". Anyway, this is the laptop being awkwardly "dead". ☠️ It was not off . The laptop was ON . The fans were running, the LED indicator on the power button was ON, it was ON. But the sc...

If a jinni (or genie) grants you three wishes, what would you wish? I might guess something such as generic infinite riches, maybe even world peace. You know, sudden, instant gratification. That gibbon, please. Make it ride a scooter with jet. Or perhaps exploiting the technicality (loophole). Say, for instance, please grant me another x wishes , or better, another battalion of you , "you" being the jinni. How am I supposed to clone myself? — said the jinni. Unless the jinni stated the terms and conditions, we can surely find a cheeky way to get to the backdoor. And as for me, I might ignore the jinni politely. As in, I thank thee for the generous offer, kind sir. Might I offer thee for a sugared roundel, nigh consumed, its orb defiled? Perhaps not, perhaps more like, Why? ⬆️ Indeed, just one word. You see, it will instantly break the spell. Because it needs to explain itself. Since it has a talkative nature, the jinni should try to answer, Err... ...

Once upon a time there was an esteemed esquire who had a horse and one squirrel to support. He used to cast his net four times a day. Long story short, he did not find any bottle made of yellow copper or even a jinni. But he did find a squirrel and a horse, in precarious order. Which then became his entourage. Sir Nuttington, his name was. With striking beard and dashing wrinkles, he kept the title out of spite, aged into it like fine whiskey, and now wears it like a defiant badge of noble rebellion. One time, the three of them noble wanderers found a mystical leech on a curious tree bark. A cursed, wise, and possibly polyglot leech clung to the bark, humming softly in forgotten tongues. It kept on forgetting the prior hum note despite its eerie and majestic visual. The tree bark barked like a vicious guard canine it was. RUN! , said Sir Nuttington. That's about the epic encounter. Below is an application to depict the glorious wandering days of Sir Nuttington...

This post is motivated by my own observation of the statistics of this blog: built-in Blogger stats, Cloudflare HTTP request logs, and my own method utilising Firebase realtime database (for browser requests). Anyway, all of them showed discrepancy. 🤦 But Cloudflare, being an HTTP request intermediary, actually captured interesting origins and questionable and phantom requests. Phantom, as in not actually "landed" on the HTML — using common browser — activating browser script. 🤖 : Ey up, I'm just 'ere to have a gander at that there /wp-config.php , if tha doesn't mind. 🖥️ : 🤦 403 . 🤖 : 🧐 Might I trouble you to initiate validation for the /.well-known/ path, specifically the entry bearing a most arbitrary identifier? ...

I forgot the term for does , do , have , will , etc. — besides to be (am, is, are, ...) — when it is formed as a proper question . Hence I asked both ChatGPT and Gemini. 👍 It is known as auxiliary verb inversion . As it involves swapping the auxiliary verb from its usual position in the sentence. Affirmative declarative to proper question examples: You eat ➡️ Do you eat? I have showered ➡️ Have I showered? That horse will neigh ➡️ Will that horse neigh? When it is used in proper question, the do , have , and will function as auxiliary verbs in inversion . It falls under the broader category of subject-auxiliary inversion . There's no clear term for that final swapped auxiliary verb. Only the method (or process), auxiliary verb inversion . So, I call it inverted auxiliary verb. 😂 Which sounds like DOES becomes SEOD . Nay-nay form (negative declarative) to improper question: She does not like to smile ➡️ Seod sh...
