I work for a training department for a large financial institution. I think I could explain it as teaching people how to do their job better. Though I don’t actually do much teaching, personally.

I’ve liked the Jackpot series, but I absolutely adore the Sprawl series. I also loved the bridge series.
I had to look up:
HHGTTG = The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
I’ve had a Leap V2 for the last couple of years, and really like it so far.
I tried to do a bunch of small things. No single thing was the key.
There are probably more, but those are the kinds of habits we’re talking about.
Also important: if you don’t stick to all habits, don’t beat yourself up about it.
With the above, I was able to get from a high of 235 lbs down to around 180. I’m a bit more than that right now, but pretty close still.
I’ve done both, though I have been typing mostly over the last couple of years.
There are those who feel that the act of writing by hand, while slower, can have benefits that typing doesn’t. Not sure I believe that, though I do believe that for some, hand writing is just the more enjoyable way to go.
For me, I write in Org Mode, which for this purpose is kind of like Markdown. I use Emacs on my computer, and an app called Plain Org on my phone.
Oh, I hadn’t heard of that.
BTW: what do you use now?
Wasn’t there a Dreamcast Ecco release? Not sure if it was any good.
… I did not know that. Good tip!
In Ontario, Canada, 500/500 fibre from Bell. I pay $60/month, though this is a promotional rate for 2 years. I think I will be paying double after the 2 years.
On that note, you can edit titles in Lemmy, which you can’t do on Reddit. So that’s a pretty great upgrade.
Up until about a month ago, Safari was the browser I used 95% of the time. I like the interface, swiping back to close a tab that was just opened from a link, etc. I don’t use a lot of extensions, so I don’t really miss them.
For the last month, I’ve been using Arc, but I may not stay with it.
Engine Summer by John Crowley. I’m only about 100 pages in, but liking it so far.
I loved the first Foundation, but never read beyond that, for some reason. I know I have the first trilogy around here somewhere. I should dig up the other ones.
I just finished Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro. It was okay, though I don’t think it lived up to the hype for me. I actually preferred Klara and the Sun to this one, though still worth a read.
Lifting: I definitely don’t like while I’m doing it.
Riding my bike though: it’s great to get out there early in the morning and explore, see nature, etc. with the bike, I also just like the feeling of speed, so the physical act of riding can actually be enjoyable.
To a lesser degree, the same can apply to running. I find that when I’ve been in better shape, I could experience that runner’s high.
I remember having Yellow Dog installed on my PS3 for some time. I was sad when Sony took away “otheros” capabilities.
I just swiped your comment a short way, so please enjoy your upvote (which I can confirm worked).
I’m gonna say: Requiem for a Dream
No Country for Old Men was great too, and it made a better transition to film than The Road, in my opinion.
