  1. Why do I keep checking Humble Bundle for new book bundles when a) I haven't read the vast majority of books that I've already bought and b) they're so frequently disappointing because there's an increasing amount of GenAI bullshit in there? 😕

    (The obvious answer is "in case there's another Black Library bundle… and it actually has NEW stuff")

  2. @joyce

    Sound plan. I tend to let my sleep schedule drift way off course, and then it takes a few more days to get back to "normal" This results in low energy, and low productivity. #BadHabits

  3. Why in the WideWideWorldOfSports isn't there a tool to Search for specific open windows in browsers!?! 😵‍💫

  4. #BadHabits

    I've already made a #NewYearsResolution . . .

    I think that I've been drinking "too much". So, I've resolved to drink less.

    What is less?

    One or none of a glass of wine (6 oz) and one or none of a 2 oz tumbler of bourbon or scotch per day.

    Recently I've been drinking 1-2 of both each day.

    Also going to try limiting drinking alcohol to only while eating food. Too often I've been drinking at all all hours during the day, just because.

    AFAIK, I've never drank so much alcohol that I've been noticeably impaired physically or mentally but I'm pretty sure that I'd fail a blood alcohol test shortly after drinking 1-2 of each of the above.

    This will also be a self-test to see if I've become an alcoholic or not.

    The answer will be revealed, if I can't go a day or 2 without feeling the "need" for a drink.

    I stopped smoking #ColdTurkey when I was a teenager when I decided it wasn't good for me & I believe that I can do the same with alcohol. if need be.

    Wish me luck! 😎

  7. Part 5: Controll

    Somehow i like many others have ended up losing controll instead of gaining it with these pocket computers. I can take that controll back and befit from truly good devices. It takes habits and good software.

    I am getting a fairphone3 or 4 as soon as i have money for it. And degoogle the shit out of it with some alternative os. That will be my hard reset with all the things i mention on previous post.

  10. Part 4:how to improve?
    -have set times to check your measages. If its important, they will call !
    -leave the phone charging while at home, use messaging on the PC more mindfully
    -at home, reach for your notebooks or gaming handheld collections more, not the phone
    -dont check phone as a first thing on the morning, do it after breakfast
    -downgrade and degoogle the phone

    This is a start at least. Right?

  18. Part 2: bad phone!
    -Always reaching for it at home
    -So many messages always interrupting thought!
    -"i have to ansver imediatly!" feeling i get when i hear a notice
    -Going to same old sites and do nothing of value or even fun, not really reading anything
    -not writing things down anymore

    I only post and browse mastodon as my social media so i dont have doomscrolling habits at least.

  33. @doctormo In Firefox, I use an add-on that lets me "stash" tabs for later in theory.

    In practice, tab stashes are where tabs go to die.
