I have tried winding the gears back to starting position but now whenever I try to predict the solstice it is incorrect, causing great embarrassment at the local sect. I bought this because those young men in white robes drawing mystic figures in the sand convinced me it would help me with my predictions, and that it was a lot easier than traditional augury or lining up rocks like the celts do. I call bullshit, what the hell is the problem with traditional birds entrails telling you these things? I spent a goat on this and it isn’t working, and I released all the birds because I thought I wouldn’t need them anymore and now I am freaking out, if I don’t get this right Zeus know what the initiae will do to me.
Anyways, any of you have experience with this issue?
Based on what you bring to my table? Inferrior materials, shoddy workmanship on the cogs and gears, possibly an attempt at simplifying the mechanism causing it to miscount on a periodic basis.
I can clean the grime off and possibly replicate the gearwork to replace what’s there, but honestly you’re better off getting a new one and that’s kinda beyond me.
It was pre-assembled actually. So I didn’t do anything. That would be laymens labor in any case.
All you snotty metalurgists think you have peered into the abyss or witnessed an endless wave just because you happen to know what a cog type Zeus-77 is. Well, I have had it up to here with this “new world order” and will be going back to revel in birds guts thank you very much.
Have you tried turning it off and leaving it at the bottom of the sea for 2000 years?
I think you may be missing, er… half the machine. Did you find this in a dung heap?
Sorry, you voided your warranty by dunking it in water.
Have you tried removing the crank and putting it back in again?
Based on the discoloration I’d reckon material fatigue. Was the copper it’s made of of really shitty quality?
Have you tried installing Linux on it?
What the fuck is a Linux? Is it one of those Non-Dogmatic Open Schematic Hardware cause I am a firm beleiver in the rule of law and won’t abide by that classless nonsense. Soon you will tell me my slaves can build their own, and then they end up learning and see how well that went with Spartacus for the Romans.
Yes, but when all are capable of knowing the innermost workings then there is no need to fear elites are manipulating the whole thing. There are still Rules, still a way of things, but everyone is free to understand rather than depend on a potentially corrupt priest high as balls on opiates demanding your daughters for his harem.
My friend Stephanous Jobous claims his apple can do this, but he seems deluded.
How can an apple tell me when the next solstice is? Do I take the pips out and do something with them or do apples have some previously unknown psycotropic effects maybe? Tell that Stephanous that he should stop inhaling the volcanic vapors of Delphi because it sounds like his wheel has got a pin loose.
