Yeah but nowadays it doesn’t feel like chore anymore. While there are definitely plenty of moments where I have to drag myself outside to go for a run, I also find myself looking forward to it quite often. When I skip it (due to illness or something) I seem to get an urge to go running again. The brain is a silly meat computer sometimes
Honestly I find it quite enjoyable on it’s own. The more I do it, the more I just enjoy the running itself. But I tend to have some music playing and dream away a bit
I started out with games and simulators. I tended just to come up with some game logic and then see what happened when I let it play out with many entities. When I started my computer science degree at uni I tended to write more code that had something to do with recent lecture material. Implementing Distance Vector Routing, messing around with compression, applying reinforcement learning to my own games.
Now that I have a job it’s a bit harder to stay motivated for all this, but it’s still kinda the same. I just write whatever my brain comes up with.
Standing a whole day usually doesn’t make my body happy, but I regularly stand for like half a day. Sometimes I even switch multiple times. When I work from home I have a standing desk, hit unfortunately at work there are only a few. So sometimes I’m forced to sit all day which I hate.
Standing at home is also way nicer because I can move around without having to check whether someone walks behind me or something. It’s nice to have some music playing and having the freedom to move with the rhythm. Or to just walk around a bit while thinking.
I always assumed it was more the other way around. I never hear my NT friends etc about feeling sad for the wonky apple in the supermarket to the point that you must buy it, because you know other people will ignore it.
I have multiple. I keep the phone boxes after I buy a phone. I probably still have them for 3 or even all my 4 smartphones that I’ve owned over the years.
I either reuse the clip or twist and tuck it if there’s no clip. I don’t understand why I’d use extra stuff for this like my own clips or rubber bands
That’s probably the Pedalo (the thing with yellow wheels) that the dude is standing on. The long word with Eier in it is the egg thingy that he is holding
Yeah exactly. But those must’ve been hard times for the shareholders. How can those poor hardworking shareholders ever earn money if you don’t buy new e-waste every 2 years?
3D printing is also awesome. For this respective model there were already 3D models available for the gear that broke in mine. I don’t have a printer, but I was still easily able to order a 3D printed replacement gear
Whenever I get my cassette player to work again. I have to replace a gear, and I do have the replacement gear, but it’s turning out to be harder than expected. Luckily the manufacturer put a diagram of all bits and bobs with numbers and how they fit together in the device manual. It’s like a very complicated puzzle
I can live with that haha. Memerijen sounds like the more formal word. But it’s also silly so it’s okay
I was forced to “talk to them” when they were still federated and it was horrible. It’s totally fine to have a political opinion, but it’s another to turn every comment section into a warzone. Even responses to random memes would somehow turn into a political debate and due to their high user count and black and white thinking this quickly turned into them attacking anyone who disagreed even slightly with their views. Hexbear were making sure that anyone who isn’t a tankie had no reason to be on Lemmy because they’d be haunted every time they’d share their opinion.
I’m all for having a normal exchange of thoughts, but this is like sitting in a room with 90% extreme leftists and getting swarmed and called a stupid lib the moment you dare to introduce some nuance. I’m still more left wing than probably 70% or 80% of the Netherlands and yet I’d relate better to the average center-right voter than to these nuts
“Dude check this; they’re posting non-English memes on Lemmy”. It’s a picture of our king and former prime minister watching something funny instead of paying attention to the serious (UN?) meeting they’re in
Oh no definitely not. Unless it’s a meme haha. Among friends we regularly don’t send a tikkie even when getting beer or something, because you know it’s probably gonna be repaid sometime. As friends you definitely don’t always need to even the books
I know. You’re talking to me like I made the meme, but I didn’t. Nor do I think that this pipeline is really common
Yeah “ikiks” wouldn’t really work haha. “Mijmijs”? Idk at R*ddit people used “meems” in the Dutchs communities. Sounds logical to me, it’s a Dutch sounding word that believably could be “meme” in english. Just like “name” is “naam” in Dutch.
Yeah. We use it to settle a lot of things with friends etc. Going out for dinner or having a drink at someone’s place? Split the bill and send everyone a Tikkie. Sometimes there’s even multiple because someone paid for the beer and someone else for the pizza.
For context: in the Netherlands we generally pay using debit card instead of physical money or credit card. Almost every bank has their own “Tikkie” service nowadays. There’s also Splitser, which allows you to keep track of who paid for what over a longer timeframe with more people. Like a holiday with friends.
This is what my German teacher meant when he said that I’d “need it someday”.
Supertoll. Danke schön. Ich hätte auch gerne ein Pedalo.
Afaik it’s quite reliable as long as you’re not very muscular. I’m 190cm and roughly 80-85kg, which is a quite normal (but a bit higher than avg) according to BMI. I also have a bit of a beer belly and definitely feel like I could lose some fat.
Unless you work out a lot and are muscular, I’d expect the classification of obese to be correct for your height and weight. 10cm taller than me and 35kg heavier doesn’t sound like a weight within the healthy range unless it’s muscle.
