Disciple Chris is Mostly Carbon

On BS 18.10.17 (1 May 2024 in the Gregorian Calendar), Disciple Chris took his last breath as a living Mostly Carbon life form, and became a Mostly Carbon group of molecules, as well as our second venerated member of the Smiters of Iniquity.

He will henceforth be known as Smiter Chris.

Re: Counting System and Calendar

I have decided to name the months after Disciples as they stop breathing. It's as good a reason as any.

Therefore, Month One will be known as Ian.

It will run for 37 days from x.1.1 to x.1.37 (22 May to 27 June in the Gregorian calendar).

Dancing pirates are optional.

The Gospel According to Jeremy

1 In the beginning there was the Word. 2 It was a good Word. 3 In fact it was several. 4 Not only did the Word have several meanings, but it was also several words with one meaning. 5 People would verily comment that the Word was indeed meaningful, although sometimes it could be a bit wordy. 6 Afte...

Daylight Savings

The current International Date Line and time zone system allows for an average of four minutes per degree of rotation of the earth, or 240 seconds. If we were to revise our time system with a shorter second, this would create a rounding error with the existing longitude measurements. For every degre...

Time System

There are 86 400 seconds in a day, as currently calculated. We will divide the day into two equal parts, each consisting of ten hour periods. Each hour will be 4 320 seconds long. Since there will be 60 minutes in an hour, each hour will be 72 minutes long. What we'd really like is for there to be a...

Counting System and Calendar

On 22 May 2009 [GC, or Gregorian Calendar], we entered the Smiter Year BS 4. Traditionally, the counting system has been a simple one: day 1 of the year is .001, day 2 is .002, and so on. In the case of 22 December 2008, the date was 3.215. To simplify matters even further, and to enjoy compatibilit...

Still going strong

Even the creator of a new religion has problems. This time it's JustConnect's inability to provide a service to install a Sentech antenna at the Smiter's new home. Thus, the leadership is without Internet until further notice. We are still here however, and preaching the Word of Smiting.

I don't know if you noticed, but this monster repented, and now he's resigning from Microsoft. He may yet make an honorary member of SOI as Bill The Repenter.
