A soul is the invention of a body's value, it is an ether body. Believing and putting importance on soul, is a way of denial of body; a body that has feelings and has perceptions. Also, fantasising a soul is the avoidance of the fact that life has a limit. And that is better to proceed giving importance to being mundanely alive, and discarding value. Be on *what* is, not be *with* is. tags: #mindset #religion --- keyboardan gopher://tilde.club/1/~keyboardan/ http://tilde.club/~keyboardan/ 2026-08-02T00:00:00+00:00 2026-08-02T12:41:18+00:00 tag:tilde.club,2026-08-02:~keyboardan/phlog/Lali_Lambda:_lhas Lali Lambda: lhas ================= After a while here is an article about simple Lali[0] snippets.

Firstly, *Wú wéi*, is to be kept as the basis[0]. Wú wéi means going easy, not forcing (this practice). So, whenever this practice, of this article, becomes uneasy, you stop doing this mindfulness practice. Then, *Breathing*, is to try to keep breathing openly, continuously, during this practice. Continuous breathing. Sometimes, in every day life, modern humans stop breathing for doing some actions... Don't do it, keep breathing. Lastly, *Thinking*, is thinking about *full*, about *all*, about *group*, about *difference*. Pick a word, that connects to these concepts, and say this word to yourself -- without speaking it -- once in a while while practicing this Mindfulness. This concludes this practice's theory. It is now up to ownself, to try this Mindfulness, and conclude for yourself, if it helps your ownself.

It is instead "effortless action" or "unforced action". It's not as passive as "inaction" would communicate; it's more aligning with the flow of things, acting spontaneously without forced intention and without struggle. tags: #daoism #definition --- keyboardan gopher://tilde.club/1/~keyboardan/ http://tilde.club/~keyboardan/ 2026-06-20T00:00:00+00:00 2026-06-20T18:48:44+00:00 tag:tilde.club,2026-06-20:~keyboardan/phlog/What_Is_A_Programming_Language What Is A Programming Language ============================== A programming language is a way to control calculation through a text language. In a way, is similar to what writing Math expressions is, although writing Math expressions is focused on Math results. A programming language is focused on "output" which is a broader concept than "Math results". A computer can be considered an electronic abacus, at its core, and an abacus is a tool and for calculation and for easing human memory when making calculations. So, it is okay to say that computers do ease human mind, and human memory in some way. Also, computers can make big calculations fast, which letting the computer do that calculation is easier than the effort of a human mind doing that big calculation. Programming is the work of making the user (of a computer) mind easier. This may not be considered true when a user has to learn about many computer programs, although what the use of programs is making the user capable to achieve, can be far greater than trying to achieve this same thing without a computer. Without a computer, achieving what a computer is able to easily achieve is a very very very so very much painful effort for the human. Congrats to many societies, especially and Europe and United Kingdom and United States of America, for giving computers to the world. tags: #programming-language #language #abacus #humans #world --- keyboardan gopher://tilde.club/1/~keyboardan/ http://tilde.club/~keyboardan/ 2026-06-18T00:00:00+00:00 2026-06-18T14:38:17+00:00 tag:tilde.club,2026-06-18:~keyboardan/phlog/Education Education ========= To have a child, people only need to have a sex organ and have some sort of intercourse. But, for a child to be an educated person, parent(s) need to have intelligence... Much more than only an action (like having intercourse). Intelligence is a virtue. Society needs to spread the message that it doesn't take much to be a parent, and that it takes much more than an action of sex to make a (proper civilized) person. Parent(s) putting children in a school system, only says to the child that parent(s) don't care about how the child will grow up. It is in the hand of others, it is in the hands of the school system's teachers... Parent(s) only had sexy time. tags: #humanity #stupidity #modern-society --- keyboardan gopher://tilde.club/1/~keyboardan/ http://tilde.club/~keyboardan/ 2026-06-17T00:00:00+00:00 2026-06-18T14:44:12+00:00 tag:tilde.club,2026-06-17:~keyboardan/phlog/Space,_Symbol,_Value Space, Symbol, Value ==================== Language teachers should begin by explain this... Language is composed by space, by symbol (without a value), and by (symbol with a) value. This is the foundations to a language. In speech, space can be silence, or (not *xor*) it can also be the pauses in-between words. In writing, spaces can be, a space, a newline, an end of a file, etc.. Symbol is the entity; which in languages is "word". A symbol/word can either have no value (for example, the zero of the decimal numerical system), xor have a value (have a meaning), like the big majority of words in a language's dictionary. The act of getting the value (the meaning) from a symbol/word, is called "interpretation". (The act of putting value (meaning) to a symbol/word, is called "naming association".) Most human languages I am aware of are *implicitly* interpreted. This is not told by (poor) (most) language teachers. For example, in such languages, when a person says "nothing" it is communicating the meaning of nothing (which, in Portuguese, its meaning is space), not **the** "nothing" (quoted; the symbol, the concept). In fact, I should have had title this as "Space, Quote, Value" to have been more precise, since the English language is implicitly interpreted, since the English language is value-based. Hope this has been informative enough as a new introduction to languages. tags: #languages #portuguese #english --- keyboardan gopher://tilde.club/1/~keyboardan/ http://tilde.club/~keyboardan/ 2026-06-15T00:00:00+00:00 2026-08-21T13:05:52+00:00 tag:tilde.club,2026-06-15:~keyboardan/phlog/Nazi_Law_of_Mental_Abuse Nazi Law of Mental Abuse ======================== Here is the story of how Medics have given me the diagnosis of Schizophrenia Paranoid. Many years ago, I was hospitalized, against my will, into a Mental Health Hospital (big letters because those Medics don't stand to descend to the human level). It was, and still is, all a very very very unfair event. Then, in the Hospital, they couldn't fit me into a category, so I defaulted to their ELSE clause. Which is being diagnosed with Schizophrenia. And yes, when I went to the Psychiatric Hospital, a person not fitting into a mental health patient profile doesn't mean this person is free of a mental disease, it means it has Schizophrenia. So, in their profession, these Portuguese Medics actually believe that each person is a mental patient waiting to be discovered. So there is that. Time after time, after my first hospitalization, Portuguese Mental Health Nurses set me up in and lies and deception and traps for they to re-hospitalize me when they want it to. Either is because of something innocent that I say, other time was because I was not (!) having a visual hallucination (and they said to me that I was), I believe that they had lied with stating that I have mistreated some of their staff, etc.. All the hospitalizations was made by them using brute force on me, or with me consenting to take a pill that made me crazy and forgetful and unconscious (I have seen other people in that state afterwards). This time, during this week, I have called the removal of a person's right to self-determination, written in the Portuguese Mental Health Law, as a Nazi Law. Which is more true than more false. Let's see how this unfolds, although they seem to be weaving yet another trap now. During each hospitalization, nurses have scissored my shoes in front of me, made me unconsciously write something (which until today I don't know what it was) on paper using my name (but you can see it is not my handwriting), taking showers that had vapours that made me pass out, put me in a room without flowing air that made me pass out by the lack of air, spending days without seeing Sunlight... All of these while putting the blame of this things on me. Mental Health Nurses expect patients to get out of the Hospital with mental traumas, and so did I. While my life now in the outside has become a stream of pain, due to the requirement of me taking pain-inducing medication (an injection) each month, for the REST OF MY LIFE!!! This is all I can say now. All this treatment makes me actually be more inclined into having a final death rest than to continue living with this required-to-take-medication circumstance, and law! tags: #mental-health #hospital #nurses #traumatization #death --- keyboardan gopher://tilde.club/1/~keyboardan/ http://tilde.club/~keyboardan/ 2026-06-14T00:00:00+00:00 2026-06-14T10:01:37+00:00 tag:tilde.club,2026-06-14:~keyboardan/phlog/Happy_0th_Year Happy 0th Year ============== Today, is my zeroth birthday of Phlogging. What an improvement, Phlogging is...! I am enjoying writing to my Phlog, while I also have a personal Blog. Regarding my personal Blog, what I dislike, is that I have to find an image on the Web to create a post. I dislike using the Web, more and more, so this is a sharp, un-smooth, interaction that my Blogging creates. Furthermore, with Phlogging, I am much more productive in creating posts. Because for me, there is less friction in the process. Here are some numbers to back this information up... ----------------- | month | posts | |-------|-------| | 01 | 1 | | 02 | 4 | | 03 | 3 | | 04 | 2 | | 05 | 7 | | 06 | 9 | | 07 | 5 | | 08 | 2 | | 09 | 0 | | 10 | 1 | | 11 | 5 | | 12 | 0 | |=======|=======| | total | 39 | ----------------- (note: numbering starts counting on the number 1) So far, in a year-round time-frame, I have created 39 (including this article) articles, a way way above average of my publication per year on my personal blog. I also felt the cosiness of the Gopher community, with nice people, and interesting point of views. Really really awesome...

This book is in the children's genre, although it is not a book with illustrations. It is meant for adult reading. I am, let me exaggerate a bit, in love with the writing of Winnie-the-Pooh's author. Alan Alexander Milne. What a **wonderful** writer. In reading this book, I could feel the love of A. A. Milne, towards the reader (and towards Christopher Robin). It is magnificent. Since this book is in the public domain, I am sharing with all of you, the two books I have from the Winnie-the-Pooh series.
