Issue with light imprints on a, w, q, etc.

Are you a touch typist or a two finger hunt-and-peck typist?

Solely based on the letters, I'll guess there's nothing wrong with the machine and that you're a newer touch typist whose two weakest fingers on your non-dominant hand just need some exercise to get a better imprint. I'd guess the same happens to your z and x as well, but you use them less. Practice typing about your "qwaze axes and saws" a few times a day for a week to improve your finger strength and technique.

If you're a hunt-and-peck person, then your typebars may need some gentle forming/fine adjustment using some specialist tools to give better imprints. Those letters on the ends of the segment more often go out of alignment than others. If this is the case, try: https://site.xavier.edu/polt/typewriters/tw-repair.html

所謂 theory of mind，竟然並非人人都有

i found this via https://www.thefp.com/p/i-founded-wikipedia-heres-how-to

i need a premium account to comment on that article, so let me post my comment here

Once upon a time, there was an institution that was trusted by the public as an impartial and reliable source of information. Then things changed. The institution still claimed to be impartial. Its leaders still repeated the same mantras about the truth and trustworthiness, but the information it provided grew steadily more ideological. The change became impossible to ignore—and the public started to ask: Does this institution deserve our trust?

If this story sounds familiar, it’s because it could describe so many of the institutions that we once relied on to bring us information. In fact, it might just be the story of our times. This crisis of trustworthiness is the skeleton key to understanding so much of the turbulence and disorder in public life today.

It’s certainly the story of The New York Times, NPR, and countless other media organizations. It’s the story of all too many institutions in medicine and public health.

It’s also the story of Wikipedia.

probably the biggest example of this story is the catholic church...

Wikipedia has an article titled “Yahweh.” I am a Christian, and I consider Yahweh to be the name of my God.

the religion of Christianity started as a small group of rebels, but then (as the group became larger) this opposition ("trend") was integrated into the empire, and from then on, it was just another controlled opposition, publicly giving hope to the small people (slaves), but privately controlled by the empire.

"you have owners. they own you." -- george carlin

There are two common types of blocks that I object to: the partisan and the petty.

my wikipedia account (Milahu) was permabanned in year 2024, because i have "insulted" other editors (i called them "stupid"), and the ban log says "Apparently he has no desire to contribute to the encyclopedia" in other words "he is just a troll", because their definition of "contribute" is "he follows our orders"

here is my edit, which was later removed as "vandalism"

https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Diskussion:Liste_von_Justizirrt%C3%BCmern_in_der_deutschen_Rechtsprechung&oldid=240510827#Michael_Ballweg

translation:

Michael Ballweg was innocently held in pretrial detention for 279 days, apparently for political reasons, because Michael Ballweg was an organizer of the Querdenker protests against the coronavirus dictatorship. As a pretext for the pretrial detention, the prosecutor constructed a “flight risk,” but the confiscation of valuables and the pretrial detention obviously served as an attack against the Querdenker protests.

See also: Michael Ballweg#Strafprozess (where, unfortunately, only mainstream sources are cited, which protect the regime with their opinion journalism).

[...]

But I'll spare myself the edit in the article, because also Wikipedia is ruled by idiots who abuse their power like any centralized structure. (Hate me cos im honest.)

[...]

The fact that Wikipedia only allows sources to be cited that have been approved by the Ministry of Truth only confirms my statement that “also Wikipedia is ruled by idiots who abuse their power like any centralized structure.”

my radically simple analysis of all these problems is that "all large organizations are evil", so the actual problem here is that wikipedia is "too large".

the same analysis applies to "our" culture in general: every "too large" state automatically devolves into this disgusting "dictatorship of pacifism", always followed by overpopulation, degeneration, and collapse.

a similar observation was made by the youtuber Tilman Knechtel in his slogan "Trau keinem Promi" (trust no celebrities), because there is a "magic line" when people become "too famous" (too large), then they are offered a choice: either they "sell their soul" (become a controlled opposition) and work for the empire (give false hope to the slaves), or they continue their real opposition and get sabotaged and punished by the empire.

so the actual problem here is that wikipedia is "too large"

see also: The Cathedral and the Bazaar by Eric S. Raymond

so the obvious solution is some peer-to-peer network, but as they say, "peer-to-peer is hard"... (what they actually mean by that is, most of our problems are not technical but social problems.)

two building blocks for such a peer-to-peer network are: tribalism = efficient teamwork in tribes of 150 people (https://github.com/milahu/alchi), and a generic voting and tagging system (https://github.com/milahu/p2p-killerapp/blob/main/doc/2025-09-04.generic-tagging-and-voting-system.md#prompt-1)

You have to love the analogy of General Montgomery to chromosomes here and the duplication of information.

Everyone knows the general direction they're moving, though the information in soldiers is different in form and function versus chromosomes which aren't conscious.

What happens when a soldier is captured and questioned though? How does that effect strategy and does it outweigh the effects of a commander dying and their next in command being able to quickly take over? or of the individual soldier presented by a difficulty, but able to make a decision because they know where the general might direct them for the outcome the general desired?

Exposure, networking and mentorship...these are three huge opportunities for post-secondary institutions to strategically embrace. These are key indicators of success outcomes and higher ed has a competitive advantage, especially in-person and residential campuses.

From what I understood of the theory is about how people see themselves on who they want to be, and how they feel about that difference such as self image and to find out who they wanna be and even with their self esteem

ChatGPT makes writing easier and more of a cleaner look, especially for people who aren’t native English speakers. But it also makes people worry and start thinking to themselves like “Is this really my work?” or “Am I cheating?” It can be helpful, but also very stressful to one.

I highly agree with the statement that "talking back" is/was seen as a form of disrespect even when the child was just expressing themselves. Now, I do also believe that it also determines on the way you take that approach which separates It from being disrespectful and the child responding

Summary - Alex advocates - for a nonmaterialist perspective on consciousness and argues - that there is an urgency to educate the public on this perspective - due to the transhumanist agenda that could threaten the future of humanity - He argues that the problem of whether consciousness is best explained by materialism or not is central to resolving the threat posed by the direction AI takes - In this regard, he interprets that the very words that David Chalmers chose to articulate the Hard Problem of Consciousness reveals the assumption of a materialist reference frame. - He used a legal metaphor too illustrate his point: - When a lawyer poses three question "how did you kill that person" - the question is entrapping the accused . It already contains the assumption of guilt. - I would characterize his role as a scientist who practices authentic seeker of wisdom - will learn from a young child if they have something valuable to teach and - will help educate a senior if they have something to learn - The efficacy of timebinding depends on authenticity and is harmed by dogma

for - social impact of science - This kind of authentic science education that reaches people takes science out of its ivory tower - and makes it relevant to the masses - We probably wouldn't have a climate crisis if scientists had consistently reached out to lay people but we failed there and allowed climate denialists to promote their agenda with greater efficacy

Me: Some of the pressure, also indicated here, is from toxic capitalism which is pressuring students to be only career-focused in their educational journeys. This pressure leaves much less space for the humanities.

The hidden point of a University of Chicago education: Be an artist, be a scientist, be a statesman, be a teacher of artists, scientists, or statesmen.

Mike Nichols, the movie director, who was there four or so years before I, said of the university:

Everyone at the University of Chicago during my time there was no neurotic, dysfunctional, weird. It was paradise!

Charles I. Epstein quoting Mike Nichols

Philip, Rey (Editor)1 Description This interdisciplinary essay explores a forgotten hypothesis at the intersection of physics, philosophy, and fiction: that consciousness is not a byproduct of matter, but its ontological foundation. Tracing this idea from Heraclitus and Plato to Schrödinger and Penrose, the article integrates metaphysical traditions with quantum models and critiques of materialist reductionism. It introduces the Theory of Ontological Consciousness (TOC) — a literary-philosophical framework proposing ψ̂–Φ interactions as the generative basis of spacetime and form. The essay also reinterprets empirical anomalies, such as those documented by the Global Consciousness Project, as potential signatures of an underlying field of universal consciousness.
