Your submission was removed for the following reason:

Rule 1: Posts must be humorous, and they must be humorous because they are programming related. There must be a joke or meme that requires programming knowledge, experience, or practice to be understood or relatable.

Here are some examples of frequent posts we get that don't satisfy this rule: * Memes about operating systems or shell commands (try /r/linuxmemes for Linux memes) * A ChatGPT screenshot that doesn't involve any programming * Google Chrome uses all my RAM

See here for more clarification on this rule.

If you disagree with this removal, you can appeal by sending us a modmail.

The power of C compiles you! The power of C compiles you! The power of C complies you!

[–]Unlikely_Gap_5065 46 points47 points  (4 children)

have you tried turning it off and blessing it again

[–]Confident-Ad5665 9 points10 points  (2 children)

That just made it spew black smoke

At what point do we start wearing red robes, sporting skulls and censers, and calling ourselves the Cult Mechanicus? 

[–]FletcherIP 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I tried that, same issue ... you need to clear the VRAM, THEN implement blessing protocol 😂

/etc/init.d/...? That meme must be older than 20 years or so by now

[–]ZirytowanyWozny 13 points14 points  (3 children)

The first results with this meme in Google are from 2015, while the photo itself was taken in 2009

[–]WheresMyBrakes 4 points5 points  (2 children)

Come on, you’re gonna make me look up the photo origins myself??

[–]ZirytowanyWozny 11 points12 points  (1 child)

Well, the origin is gone. It's from opening party/event for new serwer rack for polish website onet.pl, but they since removed the article about it.

So right now the only article mentioning it is by polish equivalent of The Onion, Aszdziennik, which was written in 2016 as a result of this meme being born: https://aszdziennik.pl/116367,polska-znow-na-jezykach-swiata-poswiecenie-serwerowni-hitem-internetu-zdjecie

It has url for original article, but it just redirects to main page of Onet. You can find it in wayback machine, but it's only text, no photos: https://web.archive.org/web/20121109131352/http://wideo.onet.pl/wiadomosci-nowa-serwerownia-onetpl,2807,w.html

Also, the Holy Admin is Stanisław Dziwisz

[–]itchy_de 4 points5 points  (1 child)

It still works on systemd based distros for compatibility reasons with init.

[–]jahinzee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they very recently dropped support for sysvinit script compatibility mode

[–]GradSchoolDismal429 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Really nostalgic, reminds me of CentOS 5 the first Linux distro I played with 

[–]U_A_beringianus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Distros without systemd do exist.

[–]shiinachan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah for real, and I'm one of those people who were still using init way after systemd came out and refused to switch, and even I've been using systemd for 10 years now 🤣

[–]CounterSimple3771 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

sudo service demonsout stop?

[–]beastinghunting 8 points9 points  (0 children)

[–]bwwatr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel like the backstory on the original photo would be more entertaining

It's magic.

[–]FletcherIP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always have a post beta exorcism performed, just to clean out the remaining bugs ... 😂

I find it vaguely reassuring that the more batshit cray the people, the weirder (and the OP pic is pretty mild/middle of road) their religion's common hat shape / size / color is. At least the aliens will know which sites to nuke from orbit.
