    I’m a welding apprentice and I just started aluminum MIG yesterday. Today will be continued practive. After work, assuming I’m not entirely exhausted, I’ll be working on writing a D&D campaign for my players.

      I’ve accepted that I will never be able to have the focus to write another campaign again because ADD, but I have a DM file with dozens of NPCs, plot hooks, and locations to add color to a campaign. Let me know if you want anything to drop in

        Thanks, but I have thr same thing. ChatGPT can be a wonderful tool if used correctly.

        I have a d100 list for diseases, curses, mundane magic items, cursed magic items, NPCs, random encounters, and so on.

        Whenever my players stray off the campaign, I have plenty to continue the game seamlessly.

      I hope you have a lovely hike! ☺️ I need to get back to going on my walk consistently every day again

        I wouldn’t last long if I tried for a daily regimen, I’d fail so hard by maybe Saturday of week 1

        For me, it’s 1-2 times a week for 3-6 mile day hikes. Gives me something to look forward to later which is important because it’s mildly addictive to get out and away from concrete and people. I savor it more when structured like that and it’s easier to keep the habit going.

        Not to say one habit is better or whatever. But maybe if daily isn’t sustainable for you, mix it up

          Most places you can hike aren’t open when I’m awake due to a sleep disorder (I’m only awake at night), so for me small daily walks work best. I don’t have very far I can go unless I wanna drive somewhere like a closed shopping center, so I usually walk 15-45 minutes (one loop around my complex is 15min, usually I do one or two loops)

          For me the benefit is less getting away from other people, my sleep schedule is very isolating so I have plenty of alone time 😅. But it’s good to get out of my head and move my body for a while :)

    I’m gunna finish this coffee, feed the cats and then spend all day in my CNC workshop finishing up a big project, a really kickass frame for an old autographed TOOL album, Opiate, I’ve been meaning to frame for over 13 years. I might even fire up the smoker and make some ribs. Wife is out of town on a business trip so I’ll prolly drink a bunch of beer, fire up some of that sticky-icky, and go through a bunch of my favorite early 90’s G-funk albums.

            Noticed that on Mbin it’s indeed strikethrough :( this is how I intended it to look (on voyager app):

            Weird, strikethrough is simliar but only by having double of the tildes. Does this ~look the same to~ you?

            Reference for how it should look like:

              sadly in lemmy’s own default web UI having space’s between the subscript text will just render normal text with tildes on both sides. That’s why I put tildes around every word. I recall there was a discussion half a year ago how every app / frontend has a bit different levels of support for markdown.

                Yeah, i had to learn that the hard way :/ I think it’s because it isn’t standard markdown.

                  ahh thought that was already part of standard markdown :( hope they extend the markdown definition soon. It’s getting crazy how many “flavours” there are!

                If you’re on the default Lemmy ui they don’t implement it since it’s not standard markdown, only some clients do

    Its bedtime for me but tomorrow I’m hoping to check in with someone about an upcoming date, get through some todos, and think about what I need to do to prepare for said date ☺️

    (We’re going to an arcade!)

    I’ve got one job to do this morning, which should take me a couple of hours to complete. Then I’ll do tax prep paperwork for a couple more hours, then go over to my elderly parents and replace one of their toilets.

    Once I do that I’ll come home and post about my day on DullMensClub

          That definitely does make things a lot harder, but there may still be some items there that would work well, and if you have to waste extra of some items ultimately that’s much better than you and your other mouth going completely hungry- it may be worth taking a look

          A loaf of sandwich bread and some peanutbuter isn’t amazing but it’s calorie dense and both are okay at room temperature

          I’m wishing you luck, thats a brutal and soul sucking place to find yourself

    Gotta start the day early with some data scrubbing. One of our ETL processes is fucked and I’ve been tasked with figuring out how to fix it.
