   @sindarina I'm not going to claim it's "AI", but I do think it's probably not what I would call as [single] "photograph" - that is to say, a capture of the entire image from a single exposure over the same interval of time. The dynamic ranges of the different elements don't add up.

   It's likely a HDR-style composition from what I would call "multiple photos" and in general (not particularly in the setting here) this kind of technique tells counterfactual stories as if they were fact.

   So, could the project get along without *new* editors? Probably for a while. But editors move on and stop editing -- there's a pretty high churn on Wikipedia. It would be harder and harder for the editors to keep up.

   It's also a loose-knit group with a lot of conflict that is resolved on-wiki. As people leave, it's harder to do that resolution.

   Gradually, the content would suffer -- which would mean even fewer new editors.

   Touchpad and volume keys continue to work when the keyboard is unresponsive. I don't know if the hotkeys are getting through in that state as they normally don't do their associated functions while the lock screen is up.

   It just occured to me I haven't thought to try disabling the lock screen to see if this still happens, but I'm in an environment where I really shouldn't leave a computer unlocked.

   Since I'm on the topic of body sensations...

   I was chatting with a transfem friend on the phone a couple of days ago, and the topic of dissociation from one's body came up.

   It's not uncommon for trans people to be disconnected and distanced from their bodies because it's rather traumatic to waltz around existence wearing a body that just feels... well, quite *wrong*.

   "Sometimes, you can’t control your circumstances, but you can control your thoughts!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

   Ultimately, the way you approach your circumstances defines how the circumstances turn out!

   This is the last post on my situation, but I must say - something like this certainly gives you a chance to think!

   I’ve spent a lot of time this week looking at my "backward" stats about my fitness and activities —the 884,000 pounds lifted at the gym during the year, the 112 rounds of golf I carded in 2025, and the top-tier cardio recovery stats I've built up.

   It’s easy to look at that data and feel robbed by my current physical limits. But I’ve realized that the most important metric isn't on my Apple Watch. It’s the "Resilience Score" in my head. With all this unique downtime, I’ve learned that true strength isn’t just about what your body can do. It’s about what your mind can do once you begin shifting your thinking.

   I'm working so hard every day not to focus on what I can't do today - but what I can do tomorrow if I don't do those things today!

   And that's a subtle but significant mindspace shift!

   As a futurist, I usually obsess over the "next big thing." But this injury has forced me to realize that you can’t sprint into the future if your chassis is broken. I’ve shifted my control panel from "frustration" to "preparation," by shifting my mindset.

   I’m not sitting here waiting for my bones to heal; I am actively moving my mind into where it needs to be for longer terms success. I’m trading the dopamine of a ski run today for the guarantee of a tee time at St. Andrews in April!

   The circumstance is a pause; the mindset is a pivot.

   So while i can't control the circumstances I find myself in, I can certainly control the thinking around what I can do with them!

   I think there is some powerful guidance in that line of thought that we can apply to just about any type of circumstance!

   Onwards!

   If you haven't realised that Ring doorbells are part of the surveillance state, wake the fuck up.

   It's happening in the US, but don't believe for a minute that it won't happen here too.
