@VulcanTourist I've kinda settled on a system that sorta kinda works most of the time...ish.
I've been off ADHD meds for a while though, so that makes things more difficult.

for a couple years now, and it's a serious distraction. Mostly I show up for the last 4 hours each day, but sometimes watch lower-division which are fun.

I find it annoying to. It isn't too common that the distinction becomes important, but still!
I guess it's kinda like internet vs. web

Sometimes I rest by my bookshelves at home too.

I'd rather eat out all the time, or at least do takeaway, but cooking at home + meal prep was the only way I could get my sodium intake down to reasonable levels.
(My BP stubbornly remains high, tho.)
These days I continue it because the closest restartant (that isn't a food truck or also a convenience store) is a 15 minute drive away, I think.
I keep wanting to resurrect my homemade 8-bit CPU project (heavily inspired by Ben Eater's breadbord computer). One of the changes I want to make is to have a variable speed clock module that you have to manually turn a crank to run. The faster you crank, the higher the clock speed.
Is this practical? Not in the slightest. It would be really cool though.
Dear grocery store I was just at:
If you want to play the game of making fake "security scan" announcements over your PA system, it might add to their credibility if they didn't sound like they were made by a professional voice actor in a recording studio.
Just sayin'.
So my partner and I do Instacart to help make ends meet. We have supposedly opted out of heavy orders,* and yet we were assigned an order with three cases (40 x 500mL) of water. That's 60kg (assuming negligible packaging weight).
This begs the question: what exactly is their threshold for what is considered a "heavy order"?
* because they don't pay anywhere near enough for us to destroy our bodies like that.

Per the help doc for org-agenda
"If the current buffer is in Org mode and visiting a file, you can also
first press ‘<’ once to indicate that the agenda should be temporarily
(until the next use of ‘SPC o a’) restricted to the current file.
Pressing ‘<’ twice means to restrict to the current subtree or region
(if active).
"
In other words, execute org-agenda then press "<" before the command you want to run against the agenda.
@a world without cars I have a markdown plugin on my Friendica server. I just put it between backticks like this: `org-agenda-files`.
This wouldn't work on Mastodon though.
you could do something like this
```
(defun my/file-agenda ()
(interactive)
(when-let ((org-agenda-files (list (buffer-file-name (current-buffer)))))
(org-agenda)))
```
We can make biodegradable plastic that dissolves in salt water using natto.
Me: That's pretty cool. Should have some environmental benefits.
It needs to be treated with palm oil.
Me: Oh.
I am officially an old person* now.
* I have a supply of Werther's on my person at all times.

Ha! If it's not Worthers, it's those strawberry gel filled hard candy things that nobody knows where they come from. 🤣
Or butterscotch disks. Those are good too.
Lately, things around the apartment have been failing in ways I didn't even know could happen. I had to pick up a new shower head because the old one exploded while I was in the shower yesterday (clocking me in the head in the process).
I'm beginning to think this apartment has it in for me.
