Seriously, the number of devs I've encountered who subscribe to 'magical' thinking is _way_ higher than I ever expected.

I've had to adjust _a lot_ of assumptions about the run-of-the-mill developer.

@ariadne Ouija boards work.

[mirabilos@toot.mirbsd.org]

@ariadne nah, the latter is more plausible

[bpl@snac.bsd.cafe]

What about divination from Yijing or /dev/urandom?

@drsbaitso @ariadne because how often does anyone ask a magic 8 ball when confidently optimistic?

@ariadne

I suspect it is possible if the victim is struck with the board with sufficient force at the right angle.

@fuzzychef @ariadne kill it first then use a ouijja board to contact it

@ariadne I don't believe Claude thinks, I believe human thought is more predictable and modellable than previously thought.

Or that invisible sky Daddy is real.

@ariadne

It might be funny to actually make it pretend like it is with all seriousness

@ariadne boom

@astareth @ariadne Dead people don't leak secrets (or do they?).
