Lmao you finally helped me understand a meme I saw the other day saying “installation” is a valid school of magic

It's also a subtle nod to a character in The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion where a mages guild character states that "Restoration is a perfectly valid school of magic"

Sitting atop the Wiring Throne designed by the most famous of IT administrators JZ Signalbringer who constructed it out of the unneeded CAT5 after bringing Enterprise level Wi-Fi to the facilities for the first time. He purposely made his throne uncomfortable before he wanted. It always remembered that IT administrators should never be at their desk.

And this isn't AI generated? 👀

[–] stratoscaster@lemmy.zip 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I remember seeing this image years ago

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Yes, but you're also AI generated, so those memories are just training data.

[–] droans@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Well the numbers aren't random gibberish so I'd say it's real.
