Don’t forget, most computers are faster on Linux than on the newest windows version, so you can hold off on upgrades for longer if the hardware is physically fine, which just further decreases costs.

Book club or maybe even some sort of 3d printing meetup? I’ve always found that the people that are interested in those probably would hit the other items on your list.

Got it and it did. Thanks again!

That is soo cute!

It depends on the frame and the ideals of the manufacturer. You can make a sports car with essentially an economy motor from the same brand (Miata, MR2) or maybe a reliable engine from another (Lotus with Toyota engines), but largely it comes down to if the brand wants to spend money to do it.

I’d love Golf with your friends if you have it available, thank you!

As for good gaming memories, I’ve been meeting with some out of state friends for movies and games on discord for the last couple of years, and I’ve had many a moment having fun just doing stupid stuff playing raft (we went through the whole game, it took about 6 months with our schedules constantly changing). I think one of the funniest memories I have was trying to use the snowski in that game, as one of my friends uses audio controls to play and she was constantly running off without meaning to and being unable to control the snowski gave us all a good 15 min just chasing her.

Golf with friends looks like it might offer some fun to the group as well, thanks in advance.

If you absolutely need it, then get it used or other method to where the original manufacturer who paid for the ad doesn’t profit, duh.

Yep. Most of the time someone has marked it somehow because it’s immensely annoying. That being said, there are a few stations that aren’t able to be muted, so I intentionally make a point to note whatever is being advertised and never buy it.

She’s lump, she’s lump, she’s lump

It was basically 1.5-2hrs at the gym twice a week, plus 1.5-2hrs doing some physical activity (hiking or the like) once a week for the first year, then what was probably light cardio a few times a week the next year for the benefits. Not too much effort for feeling the benefits of improved heart benefits, as well as probably lowered risk of heart attack.

Not noisy enough.

Gotta hate Time-Warner.

As always, everyone’s experience varies, but having ADHD I’ve always found the best way to get yourself to do something long term is to make it a super ingrained habit. I usually say 8 weeks is a good minimum to get it ingrained, and while I’ve had breaks, I generally find it much easier to get back to the swing of the habit if I have to take a break from it (or forget one of my exercise days).

Find an exercise you like, and make sure to keep doing it until it’s a habit (8 weeks is usually enough for me). It raises your baseline metabolic rate, so even if you slip a bit, you can usually recover. Personally, that’s hiking or exercising while reading an audiobook which makes the time fly.

The other thing is to religiously count calories. Have an app on your phone, enter the calories every time something comes close to your mouth. Eventually, you’ll reach to eat some snack, realize you don’t know the calories, get up to figure it out from the container, and often forget about the snack while you’re up and doing something.

I mean, wasn’t it mostly spam anyway?

…The past?

Excellent read, this isn’t a post you should just up vote blindly, read it first.

Because it’s even less regulated. Gotta “disrupt” them all!

It’s how they getcha! That dang “Thinking for themselves!”

Don’t forget dusting them with paprika!
