Hi
307：匿名：2023/06/25(日) 17:00Hello friends welcome to AI Flux stability AI finally released an update to stable diffusion XL they're calling it version 0.9 and it's kind of incredible so if you've been following a mod or stability AI on Twitter you've noticed that Emma has been teasing a lot of this model over the past few weeks the biggest one has been this sort of industrial area with a huge cloud of colored smoke but clearly used to build AI is working on really really big things what I will say is initially when I saw these I thought these were mostly coming from Deep Floyd because of how good certain textures were and predominantly how some of these had a lot of text in them there were also some that appeared to have a large contextual preference that seemed to favor deep Floyd overstable diffusion weirdly you know stable diffusion prior struggled with a certain context and certain things that could make some images harder to generate specifically this morning I was more so looking forward to fluid updates because the text here is good and and really the biggest uh breakthrough with deep Floyd was text but today we're talking about stable diffusion XL so I really like how stability AI does announcements as an organization they've become really product focused and I think it's helped them really sharpen why they're making new models how they're tuning new models and it's also sort of changed their approach to safety they talk about safety way less unlike openai and talk way more about forward use cases of their systems so specifically in this case the new version of stable diffusion XL is available today in clip drop which is kind of the mid-journey interface-esque product that stability AI has now and they're really pushing it so if you want to use this uh go make an account there you can use it today the API is coming soon and I'm sure eventually we'll be able to get to as they say here a open source release in mid-july which is that's where the safety aspect of this is coming in they say despite its ability to be run on Modern consumer gpus it's able to Fusion XL 0.9 presents a leap and created use cases for generative AI imagery the ability to generate hyper realistic Creations for films these applications as well as offering advancements for design and Industrial use places sdxl at the Forefront of real world applications for AI imagery and they're pushing it really really hard especially with clip drop and I think also clip drop is really one of the most well executed product deployments of generative AI for now at least in a real like kind of e-commerce and the number of other use cases they're actually mostly comparing sdxl beta to their release today and the progress is actually pretty impressive so again the left is beta the right is the announcement today the biggest things I've been able to pull out of this are improvements in depth of field and color gamut and color gamut along with just how much color the model is comfortable expressing in any given generation so another thing that I think is cool is clearly they've trained this on some inputs from Fallout New Vegas because this Tower here is nearly identical to how the tower looks like in New Vegas clearly more context awareness of faces and organic shapes similar to hands so hands have also been vastly improved also curiously as a sort of a side effect of this text in stable diffusion XL is also much much better here on the left you can see this Fox's face is kind of mangled and on the right this is nearing photorealism which previously was something that only mid-journey was getting close or was capable of doing this is a more minor uh comparison so we have a coffee here coffee here and what I think is telling again is depth of field a general contextual notion of subject and also understanding environmentally what looks a bit more normal the palm trees here are still a little wild but again the Right image is definitely more convincing if you show me the left image four months.
308：匿名：2023/06/26(月) 13:08 Some respondents confuse display resolution with accuracy, but just because it can be set in units of 0.5°C does not mean that temperature sensors with accuracy within ±0.5°C are used.
It is not possible to control the temperature to a constant level by using a high-precision sensor, because the air speed is not always constant like in the thermostatic baths. A small air velocity means that the temperature does not become uniform, but this is the same as heating or cooling something with a large heat capacity, so there is a large time delay and overshoot (excessive temperature control) will occur if the system is not controlled very well.
As can be seen by measuring the temperature in an air-conditioned room with a temperature sensor with a fast response speed, the temperature is constantly changing by about ±2°C around the set temperature. However, the time-averaged temperature is fairly stable, so we can assume that that temperature is the set temperature.
Therefore, the fact that the set temperature can be changed in 0.5°C increments means that the average temperature can be changed in 0.5°C increments; 1°C increments are too rough for the human senses, so it is just a matter of being able to set more finely. It is not technically difficult to fine-tune the setting values.
However, the accuracy of the temperature sensor itself is not as high as the set resolution, so the set temperature itself deviates from the actual temperature. However, if changes over time are ignored, the deviation is always constant, so the set temperature (average temperature) is reproducible. The set temperature is changed by human senses, so there is no problem if it is reproducible.
Values are not inherently arbitrary. They are deeply rooted in individuals and societies and are shaped by a variety of factors, including culture, upbringing, personal experiences, and philosophical or religious beliefs. Values provide a framework for individuals to evaluate and prioritize what they consider important, desirable, or morally right.
While values are subjective and can vary among individuals and cultures, they are not completely arbitrary. They often emerge from a combination of biological, psychological, social, and cultural factors. For example, certain values like compassion, honesty, and fairness can be found across different cultures and have evolved as a result of human social interactions and cooperation.
However, it is worth noting that the interpretation and application of values can vary significantly. Different people and cultures may prioritize and interpret values in different ways, leading to differences in ethical frameworks and moral judgments. This subjectivity can sometimes lead to conflicts or disagreements when values clash.
Additionally, values can evolve and change over time. As societies progress, new information emerges, and perspectives shift, values can be reevaluated and revised. This process reflects the ongoing development and refinement of societal values.
In conclusion, while values are subjective and can vary among individuals and cultures, they are not arbitrary. They are influenced by various factors and provide a framework for evaluating and prioritizing what is considered important or morally right. However, the interpretation and application of values can vary, and they can evolve over time in response to societal changes.
In a society or community, it is generally beneficial to have shared values to some extent, as they provide a common framework for communication, cooperation, and social cohesion. However, complete unanimity in values is unlikely and, to some degree, not feasible or desirable in diverse societies. Here's a discussion on the importance of shared values and the possibility of not sharing them at all:
1. Shared Values and Social Cohesion: Shared values help create a sense of belonging and unity within a community. When people have common principles and beliefs, it becomes easier to understand and cooperate with one another. Shared values can foster trust, mutual respect, and a shared sense of purpose, which are essential for a well-functioning society.
2. Ethical Foundations: Shared values often form the ethical foundations of a community, guiding behaviors and shaping norms. They provide a moral compass for individuals and help establish standards for acceptable conduct. When members of a society share core values like honesty, fairness, and respect, it promotes a sense of justice and harmony.
3. Cultural Identity: Values often play a crucial role in defining the cultural identity of a community. They reflect the history, traditions, and collective experiences of a group of people. Shared values can contribute to cultural preservation and foster a sense of pride and belonging among community members.
4. Diversity and Pluralism: It is important to recognize and respect the diversity of values within a society. Different individuals and groups may have different beliefs, cultural backgrounds, and priorities. Embracing diversity of values allows for a richer tapestry of perspectives and promotes dialogue and understanding. However, there may still be a need for a shared set of fundamental values that provide a common ground for respectful coexistence.
5. Tolerance and Pluralism: While shared values can provide a foundation for a society, it is also crucial to foster tolerance and respect for differences. A pluralistic society acknowledges and respects diverse values and allows for peaceful coexistence. It promotes a balance between shared values and individual freedom, allowing people to express their unique beliefs and identities without imposing them on others.
It is highly unlikely for a society or community to have absolutely no shared values. Some level of shared values is necessary for social cohesion and the functioning of institutions. However, societies can accommodate a range of values, recognizing and respecting individual differences, as long as they do not infringe upon fundamental principles of human rights and the well-being of others.
In conclusion, while shared values are important for social cohesion and ethical frameworks within a society, complete unanimity is neither practical nor desirable. A balance between shared values and respect for diversity allows for a pluralistic society that embraces differing beliefs while upholding fundamental principles of justice, respect, and human rights.
Kaqawa Prefecture Takuya Addiction Prevention Ordinance
April 23, 1991
Ordinance No. 15
Excessive use of kime-shon and legal drugs is prohibited not only because of the fear that it may reduce the energy and stamina of janitorial hotties and cause mental health problems, but also because of its negative impact on health.
Since Takuya is required to be tested for STDs, prefects are free and unlimited to pour as much cum as they wish, whenever they wish.
It is also said that those who have sex with Takuya will never be able to get rid of the pleasure. In particular, the "Kaqawa style," which is considered highly ejaculatory, is addictive, and once you have tasted it, you will never forget it.
Although the prefectural government has established severe penalties for these prohibited acts, with "arrest for even one violation" and "imprisonment of two to four years for five or more violations," they have no deterrent effect because the entire population has the mindset that "the pleasure is more important than the punishment, so it doesn't really matter, does it?
For this reason, Kaqawa Prefecture is flooded with people who come here to become Takuya. Some, however, truly become takuya addicts.
They are unable to lead a normal life without takuya, and men in particular are at risk of erectile dysfunction and ejaculation problems, so immediate action is needed.
Therefore, the provincial authorities have established a hospital dedicated to treating men as takuyas, and are providing treatment on a regular basis.
A special school has also been established for women who wish to become takuya, called the "Kaqawa Takuya Sick School." Every day after school, there is a line of applicants, both men and women, who are so enthusiastic that it resembles a public confession event by the popular actor Yoshinari Minami.
Here, we propose a revolutionary measure aimed at making the people of the prefecture happy, including measures to combat the prefecture's declining birthrate.

The Day of Mayunnaise
318：匿名：2023/09/15(金) 12:51 In the realm of personal musings, my father's voice emerges, declaring the peach as the most exquisite of all culinary delights, closely trailed by the savory allure of steak. A contemplation on the intricacies of meticulous preparation lingers, neither cast as virtuous nor vice.
Delving into the intricate dance of sexuality and symbolism, I ponder the female form, with its decentralized duality—the breast and the vulva—captivating symbols deeply woven into the fabric of human history, yet forever entangled in the complex tapestry of the sex industry.
In the sprawling theater of modern society, a question emerges, a query we've all known: Why does negativity dominate our narratives? We find ourselves navigating a landscape marked as a "country of losers," a revelation that beckons us to embrace awareness, both personal and collective, as a path to enlightenment.
In the labyrinthine corridors of personal identity, I wrestle with labels—underachiever or procrastinator—searching for the mantle that fits. Yearning to stand as a guardian of thought in our intellectual collective, I question the artificial constructs that bind us to the state, my brother's words echoing a peculiar sense of belonging.
A profound shift surfaces as I confront the guilt of dependence, both financial and emotional, upon parental pillars. A revelation unfolds: perhaps this vulnerability is a source of strength, a positive twist in the narrative of life. In the realm of decision-making, I embrace the wisdom of choosing what not to do.
Amidst the enigmatic phrases and abstract whispers—height ted dose owe, queer utter met'em, and more—a philosophical undercurrent flows, touching upon creativity's sway over cognitive traits, the organization of pain through video games, and the unraveling beauty of linear narratives.
In this intricate mosaic of thoughts, nerdy autocracy meets random assumptions, and traceable desires beckon from the shadows. These fleeting glimpses of the mind's inner workings, like a tapestry of prose poetry, offer a glimpse into the labyrinthine landscape of human contemplation.
Criteria for Fact-Finding and Opinion-Review Type Judgments
October 27, 2022
In determining whether an expression constitutes defamation, the standard of judgment used differs depending on whether the expression is a statement of fact or a commentary of opinion.
Today, we would like to introduce the Supreme Court decision of January 30, 1998 (Shumin 187-1), which sets forth the criteria for judging whether an expression is a statement of fact or a commentary of opinion.
1. The Supreme Court's decision of January 30, 1998
The Supreme Court held as follows regarding whether a certain expression is a statement of fact or a commentary of opinion.
The Supreme Court held as follows: "Even if the expression is in the form of an inference in the part of the article in question, the existence or nonexistence of the expression may be determined by evidence, etc., based on the ordinary attention and reading style of ordinary readers of the article, taking into consideration the context before and after the article and the knowledge and experience the readers had at the time of publication of the article. If the article is understood to assert, as a result of a right inference, a specific matter concerning another person whose existence or non-existence can be determined by evidence, etc., it is reasonable to regard the said part as revealing a fact.
The way in which an expression is contested in court differs greatly depending on whether it is a statement of fact or a commentary of opinion.
However, there are many cases in which there is a dispute as to whether or not the matter falls under "a specific matter concerning another person whose existence or non-existence can be determined by evidence, etc.," so although the judgment standard has been clarified, the reality is that in actual disputes, it cannot be said that the distinction is unequivocally made.
2 When you are involved in a trouble related to defamation
Recently, the number of Internet troubles in various situations, such as troubles between individuals and slander against companies, has been on the increase.
There are various types of Internet troubles, ranging from intentional troubles to troubles where the victim did not intend to commit an illegal act, but as a result committed an act that constitutes an illegal act.
In Internet troubles, whether you are a victim or a perpetrator, it is important to carefully consider how to proceed from both the civil and criminal aspects of the case.
We recommend that you first consult with a lawyer who is familiar with Internet problems to determine what action you need to take.
To shift the graph of \(y = \sin(x)\) symmetrically about the y-axis and further shift \(-\frac{\pi}{2}\) units parallel in the x-direction, you apply two transformations:
1. **Reflection about the y-axis**: To reflect a function about the y-axis, replace \(x\) with \(-x\). So, \(y = \sin(x)\) becomes \(y = \sin(-x)\).
2. **Horizontal shift**: To shift the graph horizontally, replace \(x\) with \(x + c\), where \(c\) is the amount of shift. So, \(y = \sin(-x)\) becomes \(y = \sin(-(x + \frac{\pi}{2}))\).
Combining these transformations, the expression for the transformed function is:
\[ y = \sin(-(x + \frac{\pi}{2})) \]
This expression represents a graph that is a reflection about the y-axis and is further shifted \(-\frac{\pi}{2}\) units parallel to the x-direction compared to the graph of \(y = \sin(x)\).
To calculate \(\cos\left(\frac{17}{3}\pi\), you can use the periodicity property of the cosine function. The cosine function has a period of \(2\pi\), meaning that \(\cos(x + 2\pi) = \cos(x)\) for any value of \(x\).
In this case, \(\frac{17}{3}\pi\) can be expressed as \(\frac{3 \times 5}{3}\pi + \frac{2}{3}\pi\), which is equivalent to \(5 \times 2\pi + \frac{2}{3}\pi\). This means that \(\cos\left(\frac{17}{3}\pi\right) = \cos\left(\frac{2}{3}\pi\right)\) since \(5 \times 2\pi\) is a complete cycle.
Now, \(\cos\left(\frac{2}{3}\pi\right)\) corresponds to the cosine value at \(120\) degrees. In the unit circle, at \(120\) degrees, the cosine value is \(-\frac{1}{2}\).
So, \(\cos\left(\frac{17}{3}\pi\right) = -\frac{1}{2}\).
To factorize the cubic polynomial \(x^3 - 2x^2 - 5x + 6\), you can use various methods, such as synthetic division or factoring by grouping. However, in this case, it seems that the polynomial might not have rational roots.
Let's denote the given polynomial as \(f(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 - 5x + 6\). To factorize it, you can use methods like factoring by grouping or the Rational Root Theorem.
Unfortunately, I don't have a direct method to find the roots of cubic polynomials or factorize them in this conversation format. If you have access to a graphing calculator or software, you can graph the function to get an idea of the roots. Alternatively, you can use numerical methods or software like Mathematica, MATLAB, or online tools to find the roots or factorize the polynomial.
To calculate \(8^{-1/2}\), you can apply the rule that \(a^{-n}\) is equal to \(\frac{1}{a^n}\). Therefore:
\[ 8^{-1/2} = \frac{1}{8^{1/2}} \]
Now, \(8^{1/2}\) is the square root of 8. The square root of 8 is \(2\sqrt{2}\) because \(2 \times 2 \times 2 = 8\). So,
\[ \frac{1}{8^{1/2}} = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}} \]
To rationalize the denominator, you can multiply both the numerator and the denominator by \(\sqrt{2}\):
\[ \frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}} \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4} \]
Therefore, \(8^{-1/2} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}\).
In triangles ABC and A'B'C', you've mentioned that ∠A = ∠A', ∠B = ∠B' (which is a right angle, 90°), and the sides AB, BC, and A'B' are given.
Given that ∠A = ∠A', the triangles are similar by the Angle-Angle (AA) similarity criterion.
Now, let's use the given information to find the length of A'C'.
First, note that in similar triangles, the ratio of corresponding side lengths is equal. Therefore, we can set up the proportion:
\[ \frac{AB}{A'B'} = \frac{BC}{B'C'} \]
Substitute the known values:
\[ \frac{2}{3} = \frac{1}{B'C'} \]
Now, solve for B'C':
\[ B'C' = \frac{3}{2} \]
So, the length of A'C' is \(\frac{3}{2}\).
The correct answer is (1) \(a < b \Rightarrow a^2 < b^2\).
Here's the explanation:
Given that \(ab > 0\), it means that both \(a\) and \(b\) have the same sign (either both positive or both negative).
Now, let's consider the cases:
1. If \(a\) and \(b\) are both positive, then \(a < b\) implies \(a^2 < b^2\).
2. If \(a\) and \(b\) are both negative, then \(a < b\) still implies \(a^2 < b^2\) because squaring a negative number gives a positive result.
So, regardless of the sign of \(a\) and \(b\), when \(a < b\), \(a^2 < b^2\). Therefore, statement (1) is correct.
To shift the graph of \(y = \sin(x)\) symmetrically about the y-axis and further shift \(-\frac{\pi}{2}\) units parallel in the x-direction, you apply two transformations:
1. **Reflection about the y-axis**: To reflect a function about the y-axis, replace \(x\) with \(-x\). So, \(y = \sin(x)\) becomes \(y = \sin(-x)\).
2. **Horizontal shift**: To shift the graph horizontally, replace \(x\) with \(x + c\), where \(c\) is the amount of shift. So, \(y = \sin(-x)\) becomes \(y = \sin(-(x + \frac{\pi}{2}))\).
Combining these transformations, the expression for the transformed function is:
\[ y = \sin(-(x + \frac{\pi}{2})) \]
This expression represents a graph that is a reflection about the y-axis and is further shifted \(-\frac{\pi}{2}\) units parallel to the x-direction compared to the graph of \(y = \sin(x)\).
To calculate \(\cos\left(\frac{17}{3}\pi\), you can use the periodicity property of the cosine function. The cosine function has a period of \(2\pi\), meaning that \(\cos(x + 2\pi) = \cos(x)\) for any value of \(x\).
In this case, \(\frac{17}{3}\pi\) can be expressed as \(\frac{3 \times 5}{3}\pi + \frac{2}{3}\pi\), which is equivalent to \(5 \times 2\pi + \frac{2}{3}\pi\). This means that \(\cos\left(\frac{17}{3}\pi\right) = \cos\left(\frac{2}{3}\pi\right)\) since \(5 \times 2\pi\) is a complete cycle.
Now, \(\cos\left(\frac{2}{3}\pi\right)\) corresponds to the cosine value at \(120\) degrees. In the unit circle, at \(120\) degrees, the cosine value is \(-\frac{1}{2}\).
So, \(\cos\left(\frac{17}{3}\pi\right) = -\frac{1}{2}\).
To find the coefficient of \(x^3\) in the expansion of \((x + 2)^4\), you can use the binomial theorem or Pascal's triangle.
The binomial theorem states that the \(k\)-th term in the expansion of \((a + b)^n\) is given by \(\binom{n}{k} \cdot a^{n-k} \cdot b^k\), where \(\binom{n}{k}\) is the binomial coefficient.
In the case of \((x + 2)^4\), for the term with \(x^3\), \(k = 1\), and the coefficient is given by \(\binom{4}{1} \cdot x^{4-1} \cdot 2^1\):
\[ \binom{4}{1} \cdot x^3 \cdot 2 = 4 \cdot x^3 \cdot 2 = 8x^3 \]
So, the coefficient of \(x^3\) in the expansion of \((x + 2)^4\) is \(8\).
To find the inverse function of \(y = x + 3\), you can follow these steps:
1. **Replace \(y\) with \(x\):**
\[ x = y + 3 \]
2. **Solve for \(y\):**
\[ y = x - 3 \]
So, the inverse function of \(y = x + 3\) is \(y = x - 3\). This means that if you have a value of \(x\), you can substitute it into the inverse function to get the corresponding \(y\) value, and vice versa.
To find the composite function \(g \circ f(x)\), you first find \(f(x)\) and then substitute it into \(g(x)\). The notation \(g \circ f(x)\) means "first do \(f(x)\), then do \(g(x)\) with the result."
Given \(f(x) = 2x + 1\) and \(g(x) = x^2\), let's find \(g \circ f(x)\):
\[ g \circ f(x) = g(f(x)) \]
\[ g \circ f(x) = g(2x + 1) \]
Now substitute \(2x + 1\) into \(g(x) = x^2\):
\[ g \circ f(x) = (2x + 1)^2 \]
\[ g \circ f(x) = (2x + 1)(2x + 1) \]
\[ g \circ f(x) = 4x^2 + 4x + 1 \]
So, the expression for the composite function \(g \circ f(x)\) is \(4x^2 + 4x + 1\).
To translate the graph of \(y = 2x + 3\) by 2 units in the positive x-direction, you replace \(x\) with \(x - 2\) in the function. The general formula for a horizontal translation is \(y = f(x - h)\), where \(h\) is the amount of translation.
So, for the given function \(y = 2x + 3\), the expression for the graph after translating 2 units in the positive x-direction is:
\[y = 2(x - 2) + 3\]
Now, simplify the expression:
\[y = 2x - 4 + 3\]
Combine like terms:
\[y = 2x - 1\]
Therefore, the expression for the graph of the function \(y = 2x + 3\) after translating 2 units in the positive x-direction is \(y = 2x - 1\).
To find the length of a line segment between two points \((x_1, y_1)\) and \((x_2, y_2)\), you can use the distance formula:
\[ d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2} \]
For the points \(P(1, 2)\) and \(Q(3, 5)\):
\[ d = \sqrt{(3 - 1)^2 + (5 - 2)^2} \]
\[ d = \sqrt{2^2 + 3^2} \]
\[ d = \sqrt{4 + 9} \]
\[ d = \sqrt{13} \]
Therefore, the length of the line segment PQ is \(\sqrt{13}\).
To find the slope (\(m\)) of the line passing through two points \((x_1, y_1)\) and \((x_2, y_2)\), you can use the formula:
\[ m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \]
For the points \(P(1, 2)\) and \(Q(3, 8)\):
\[ m = \frac{8 - 2}{3 - 1} \]
\[ m = \frac{6}{2} \]
\[ m = 3 \]
So, the slope (\(m\)) of the line is \(3\).
The equation of a line in slope-intercept form (\(y = mx + b\)) has the slope \(m\) and y-intercept \(b\). Now, to find the y-intercept (\(b\)), you can use one of the points, let's say \(P(1, 2)\):
\[ 2 = 3(1) + b \]
\[ 2 = 3 + b \]
\[ b = -1 \]
So, the y-intercept (\(b\)) is \(-1\).
Therefore, the equation of the line passing through the points (1, 2) and (3, 8) is \(y = 3x - 1\), and the slope is \(3\) with a y-intercept of \(-1\).
To find the derivative of the function \(y = \sin(x) \cos(x)\), you can use the product rule. The product rule states that if you have a function \(y = f(x) \cdot g(x)\), then the derivative \(y'\) is given by:
\[y' = f'(x) \cdot g(x) + f(x) \cdot g'(x)\]
Let \(f(x) = \sin(x)\) and \(g(x) = \cos(x)\). Then, find the derivatives:
\[f'(x) = \cos(x)\]
\[g'(x) = -\sin(x)\]
Now, apply the product rule:
\[y' = (\cos(x) \cdot \cos(x)) + (\sin(x) \cdot (-\sin(x)))\]
\[y' = \cos^2(x) - \sin^2(x)\]
Using the trigonometric identity \(\cos^2(x) - \sin^2(x) = \cos(2x)\), the derivative simplifies to:
\[y' = \cos(2x)\]
So, the derivative of \(y = \sin(x) \cos(x)\) is \(y' = \cos(2x)\).
In the kingdom of algorithms and code,
Where bits and bytes pave the road,
Nerdy autocracy takes its stand,
Rulers with glasses and keyboards in hand.
Lines of code, a digital decree,
In the realm of logic, where minds roam free.
Binary choices in circuits abound,
A kingdom of knowledge, where geeks are crowned.
The autocrats in hoodies and pens,
Wielding syntax like ancient weapons.
In the world of circuits and silicon,
They command with a binary lexicon.
The throne of the nerds, a server's hum,
Where data rivers gracefully run.
In the castle of screens, a pixelated crown,
Nerdy autocracy, bytes weighing down.

Logic reigning with a binary key.
In the echo of keystrokes, a royal decree,
Nerdy autocracy, rulers of the IT sea.
A kingdom where the intellect prevails,
And creativity unfurls its sails.
In the quiet hum of the server's song,
Nerdy autocracy, where nerds belong.
The autocrats' scepters, stylus and mouse,
Nerdy wisdom in every byte of the house.
In the digital castle, where ideas compile,
Nerdy autocracy, where minds beguile.
So in this kingdom, where circuits decide,
Nerdy autocracy, with knowledge as its guide.
In the symphony of code, a ruler's decree,
Long live the nerds in their digital glee.
