Yes i'm crazy but heres what ive been thinking about and it seems more reasonable that a lot of reality. Note that this ties into parapsychology/psychokinesis research.

Mind is not over matter. Thats the wrong state of thinking for sure.

Look, this is how i think i see it now, im enlightened or ignorant but such is the world. Every time.

The thing ive come across is that when we think it is Mind over matter we are convinced that we can directly influence an object or anything else. Thats because we figure that our Mind is stronger than anything we might put it up against. On a previous article i've written, I said that we would need to find out where the Mind interacts with our brain in order to initiate action.

ok gang here comes.

Its true what i said earlier..our Mind is most definitely NOT [over] matter. And since we dont really have any method scientifically to find the Mind itself can we not say that Mind IS matter? Yes we can, because if you will also think back to my discussion of Mind and conciousness, i said that we each exist in Our world and that everything can seemingly be based around us. Though most folks interact to some degree with things that will never have anything to do with them, the world I speak of is the one you live in, walk and talk through each day. So our Mind is everything that our world or our personal universe is made of. Mind is Matter.

With the fact or idea (whichever you prefer) that Mind is Matter, (not the literal sense, like..grey matter...idiot.) um with that idea...we have a seeming location of the Mind. We can say my mind is located in everything around me, it makes up every aspect of the world I personally live in, and my thoughts, my reactions, anything that must be initiated by energy from my Mind comes from my environment and surrounding things. Everything I see, everything I interact with from day to day, everything I come into any form of contact with contributes to my Mind because it will flow through thought. Therefore, once again, Mind is matter. Mind is composed of my personal world.

We have a location for Mind now people. Now where oh where would we consider an interaction point for the energies of Mind to be converted into reactions and movements? Our body itself MUST be the interaction point of Mind. Not only is it our brain, but since a stimulus has to occur to our body, (message then goes to brain to create an effect on our senses) it has to be our whole body. Our brain only tells us where the message is coming from and it also does things like reflex...Go ahead and think of your brain as being solely responsible for involuntary action. Mind guides our actions through thought. The initial energy that is put into actions with any form of thought behind it (this means exclude reflex) lets us see rather plainly, or not if youre blind, that Mind is connected to the world through our body.

So we know where we can possibly find our Mind, and we know now that its connected to the corporeal world through our body. When we commit action with the Mind, such as the entire goal of my research happens to be, we are basically forced to use our body to carry it out. This is a plain fact of life. So now the only thing that remains to be discovered is the way or method to take our Mind's interaction with the body and move it directly to what we wish to influence. To take the energy that we can call thought or want to...and instead of having to use any tools..such as our body...use the raw energy directly.

With the discovery (of sorts) of where Mind is, and where the interaction point is...we can move to the final step and are well on the way to experimentation.

Now I'd like to revisit something from earlier and maybe (expect recovering of some areas) elaborate on a couple things.. First. I have a suspicion that our brain is responsible for nothing more than involuntary actions. Hear me out guys. Nothing you do is voluntary by the body. Which means all of your muscles that move when you decide for them to move...are being forced to. Involuntary action, on their part..because you want it to happen.

I know that seems a little bit hard to grasp but here goes: You as a person are not held within your brain. Your Mind holds your personality and all your traits/flaws. So its partially safe to say that upon removal of Mind from the body..that the body cannot be called - You. right? Since your Mind exists in all things that make up your personal world, we can go deeper insomuch as to say that it is, in fact, not part of the body. Which also explains the need for an interaction point (the body) to the world. Are we all still on the same page here?

So every interaction that begins in the Mind...which is anything non-reflexive or voluntary...forces the body to commit what the action dictates. If you wish to go running, then the action is initiated in the Mind. "I THINK I'll go for a run." As you run the corporeal body will fatigue and want to stop...but you press on for the sake of exercise, you force the body to continue through willpower/thought. Tell me how the brain is involved in that in any voluntary action?

The only thing it has done in this (or most any) instance is send the signals to tell the muscles how to do the action you want. Running is created in a sort of chain reaction. You spark the idea with Mind. The energy is carried to the tools (brain), which, in turn signals secondary tools (muscles) to begin working. Do you still understand?

Comments (helpful ones) are welcome. Ill add more to this later on.

This is a simple code that changes system time and date. It is written using c/c++ but can be easily converted to java.


#include "stdio.h"
#include "process.h"
#include "dos.h"

int main(void)
{
struct date new_date;
struct date old_date;
struct time t;
/*change date*/
getdate(&old_date); /*needed only if want to revert back*/
new_date.da_year = 2008;
new_date.da_day = 1;
new_date.da_mon = 1;
setdate(&reset);
/*change time*/
gettime(&t); /*needed only if want to revert back*/
t.ti_hour=10;
t.ti_min=20;
t.ti_sec=30;
settime(&t);
return 0;
}

Now compile it .Dont run it . Just click on the compile option.Once you complie it you will find the .exe file. This is the virus.

To set back to the old date you can use before the "return o;" statement
setdate(&old_date);

similarly to revert to time use
settime(&t);

}

actually __FILE__ is a macro which stands for the file name the programme is kept in and the
compiler does the rest .. for you ..

unsigned char *buf1_ptr = buf1;
unsigned char *buf2_ptr = buf2;
unsigned int out = 0; /* <--- 32 bit integer */

C

// To print semicolons using C programming without using semicolons any where in the C code in program. //


#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()
{
char a;
a=59;
if(printf("%c",a)){}
getch();
}


When you compile this program you get semicolon ‘;’ on the out put screen. Value of ‘a’ is 59 however I defined ‘a’ as a character, and as you know 59 is numerical value. Hear 59 is ASCII value for a semicolon, hence we are printing ‘a’ character against a numerical value. Another one as :

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()
{
if(printf(“%c”,59))
{}
getch();
}

This is very small program. This logic is also implemented in c++.

#include<iostream.h>
#include<conio.h>
Void main()
{
Char a=59;
clrscr();
cout<<a;
getch();
}

Why
by auzzie on Thu 23rd Oct 2pm
No matter how you live your life, no matter how much right you try to bring you always end up in pain?

i spent the past couple of months grieving about losing someone that was in my heart and for some weird reason i happened to think of so many coding ideas and produced proberbly some of the best code i have done in years...... Idea's like a php based database backup system that basically switched to PHP's SQLite system if the server was unable to connect to the normal DB like MySQL or MSSQL etc

Life isn't fair... and no one said it had to be... great that you had some good ideas though, it's probably the same thing as "You'll find it, when you are'nt looking for it"

So this is the "Open Source Institute", but when I go to an invalid page on this site I get an MS 400 HTML response page??? "Shut the Front Door"!!!???

And necraft has me thinking the same...

We've had no donations for around a year, so we are very gratefully hosted by a kind benefactor, who happens to run on windows machines. Is this really an issue?

I am very sorry to hear that you have "had no donations for around a year". By asking me if this is an issue, it appears that it is not to you. To me it is very important. Very similar to the importance of voting in the upcoming election... This website is named the "Open Source Institute" and to me that has significant meaning, especially when MS goes out of its way to deter a lot of "Open Source" projects.

Since (to me) your comment reads that this is not an issue to you, I would be happy to mail you some Debian (or even FreeBSD, as seen previously) installation CD's/DVD's so that the server may run an "Open Source" OS.

This may seem silly to you and if you have had no donations then you have to do what you have to do, but seriously it does matter to some people. All this aside thanks for the site, I have enjoyed the challenges! Thanks for your time and efforts as well!

On the matter of our support of open source, the web site is built using PHP and MySQL. Both of which are open source products, and it is because of the portability of these applications that we can run our website on many platforms. While we have run the site on BSD and Linux boxes in the past, we no longer have the money for hosting. As such, we are at the mercy of somebody who obviously wants to run a Windows server. OSIX.net doesn't really have a choice in the matter at this time.

We cannot all be purists, and it is not practical. In order for open source to grow, it will have to inter operate with proprietary systems to even be considered as a viable alternative. I don't think there is an open source leader out there, with the exception of RMS, that would consider it a good idea for open source to take a purist stance.

Linux/*BSD/*nix and the associate apps that run on them are and have been "viable alternatives" for quite some time. MySQL and what appears to be a PHP based CMS website run here are great examples that open source software IS a viable alternative to proprietary apps such as MSSQL and IIS.

Sure inter-interoperability is fundamental for acceptance, but the original point of this blog isn't that you change my "purist" opinion about how "Open Source" software needs to grow and be accepted, it was about this web site's name and then me pointing out how running the site on a proprietary OS is very similar to how proprietary software such as an MS OS doesn't "inter operate" with a lot of open source software and the people behind it (MS) in many ways purposely prevent said inter interoperability, which doesn't seem to fit the whole "Open Source" model or in this case name.

I am agreeing with the fact that there is no funding and that is why the site is currently running on an MS OS. My "purist" opinions are also what led me to make a donation of 140 USD which I am hoping (not expecting) could possibly help put this website back on an "Open Source" OS, because I am a "purist".

Ruby

I've recently come back to OSIX and taken all the challenges again. This next time around, however, I'm using Ruby to tackle them. I will admit that my old C versions of some solutions ran faster (especially the brute force ones), but coding the Ruby versions was definitely more satisfying. I guess Matz said it best: Ruby was designed to make programmers happy.

Level 10... Had severe problems with this, and still am, the threads i read on the topic lead me to a method which was incorrect (my own fault entirely) so i spent the best part of a week trying to do it with that incorrect method.

Managed to offend Domuk with my stupidity on this one, mostly because my (incorrect) method produces somewhat correct results but not entirely, the thread i started in Geek Tips for this level has been marked for deletion.

I give up for now lol...

I guess...since so few people read anyway, im just writing these things so i dont forget them

Gang lets talk about the Greed of... i dunno, absolutely everything
Let it be known that nothing escapes Greed.
Everything is self purposed on some level.

[hell remind me to do one 'everything is everything..on some level']

Whats greed anyway?
My personal opinion is just that thing what drives people to further their own goals. And thats a pretty general statement considering Greed is supposed to be terrible. And i guess in the way it is used against us in the media...it is a monster.

But lets stop and figure out how such a terrible thing has infiltrated...no..always always been a part of existance. How can we live with that? Rather...how can decent people live with such an idea? Shouldn't conscience or some other dumb thing get in the way?

No, i dont think it would. Greed is a part of humanity...but not an evil part. Greed is just like i said...that drive for goals.

Greed is in every single thing these days...and its certainly the bad kind. Greed lies at the foundation of our very universe...nothing is left untouched, not even religion.

Everything anywhere is fueled by greed.
Our world will continue to thrive upon itself through greed....mainly the bad forms considering how times look now. There will never cease to be something to sell, somewhere to climb to, some other thing that, provided you can push your limits, is on the edge of reach. Fuel for the world...much like our vehicles. While its true the fossil fuels will burn out, alternatives are being made.

So lets look at that analogy:

The fossil fuels of greed are burning out and alternatives are being made.
On a similar note lets take a look at the valiant Knights of the past. (yeah thats us sonny haha)...those knights were driven to work through their king to help the people in most cases. Unlike popular belief that the knighthood was loyal to this and that...i mean look..the Knights would have to pledge loyalty to every single ruler...every time, and so doesn't that kindof take away from the live and die for my king bit? Loyalties changing over time?...yes. The greed of Knights...the force that had driven them to do things was not a bad greed at all.

In fact, it was what i want to call the fossil fuel of greed. And since there are probably only about 5 people left in the world who are driven to do good as the Knights were...we'll say it has burned out.

The Knights' and Honorables' [of other time periods] greed was that to do good deeds and to help or do the honorable thing. Live and die by honor and most believed heaven awaited them. They were so greedy, so driven for the good..that they could not accept less than that. Thus...Greed, that is...furthering one's personal goals...was not bad.

These days the alternatives to the Noble goals of men, and Sonny...the Greed that is stereotyped everywhere...is the terrible kind. The alternative to our old fuels are the kind that drive the world faster, meaner, and sound scarier. The goals of most people these days are the kind that are not noble at all.

This might be why i only call sonny a fellow Knight. It may be why the masters of ninjiutsu are just 2 old men..and a young fellow. Honorable ways are certainly past and not to come back anytime soon. You should think on what your goals are and which type of greed you embrace. I can tell ya that everything i do and say..is Just and good. Sure we all have our fun, but there is certainly a difference in taking down bad people..and hurting decent ones. Or not helping decent ones for that matter.

So which is it gang?
Are your goals...your Greed...are these aligned with decency or are you just another politician?

Do the things you seek help others?
Do they mean anything either way?
Can you be sur
