How does one spend 15 minutes making coffee?

We need friction between us and the things we want to do, otherwise the things we want to do will feel meaningless and hollow

What is the 48 cookies doing in here lol.

[–] other_cat@piefed.zip 4 points 7 hours ago

My brain just automatically supplied "hour" 48 hour cookies. (You make the dough then chill it in the fridge for a couple days to make the flavor change.)

NGL, in a pinch get a good nature sound app and pop in the earbuds and just crash out on the sofa and listen.

I have been using one called Naturespace for a decade and it's glorious. Best track is called The Imaginarium. Whoa.

I do the same but with real nature audioscape tracks people put on youtube. Creeks and blackbirds especially.

I've been using a mix of nature sounds to help fall asleep for years. If I'm having a particularly rough night, I'll play some repetitive calm music I'm super familiar with as well, EQ'd to just be barely audible through the nature sounds. ADHD brain uses all the extra energy that would be keeping me up spinning ideas around to tune one or the other of the "two" audios out and I'm out pretty quick.

I use a version 1.3.3 of an app from F-Droid, Noice, for the nature sounds. Later versions added premium features and load the audio from a remote server. That's the last version with everything local.

PowerAmp for the music. Took the "Soft" EQ preset to keep any "sharp" sounds from coming through and lowered the overall volume of it, then applied it to a specific "chill/sleep" playlist I made.

Both apps have sleep timers so they can shut off automatically after a set time.

maxxing

This is how they taught you to spell?

[–] stray@pawb.social 8 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

That is the correct spelling in this context.

Birdwatching: get and support the Merlin app. Its a great way to find out what birds live or pass through your area.

[–] stray@pawb.social 1 points 21 hours ago

What does it mean that this bird is "likely in 4 today"?

Same with iNaturalist for plants and fungi!

[–] stray@pawb.social 3 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

My immediate assumption is that any observations made by me are meaningless noise and that I should avoid making them unless I see something really weird. But that could also be a problem because then it looks like shiny Caterpie is really common in this area while the regular one is rare. Do you know what behavior the creators of the app prefer?

[–] marduk@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I do not know, and I didn't find much on their site other than a few good practices listed here: https://www.inaturalist.org/pages/community+guidelines

They do have a forum where etiquette questions come up, so that might be a good place to get a feel for it, e.g. https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/inat-posting-etiquette-questions/15317/5

The main thing seems to be honesty about your observations (if you're unsure of an ID, note that) and be available for comments and corrections on your posts.

Good luck!

Thank you very much!

geese. geese are what pass through my area.

It's definitely good for people who struggle with a wide array of mental health issues, and is good prophylaxis against the same.

Slowmaxxing my travel ironically makes the journey feel shorter

My stand mixer would cry trying to make 48 cookies in a go. I'll stick with 24 and eating them all up then making more!

[–] Xenny@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago

I read it as 48-hour chocolate chip cookies. I make those often actually. I find with my recipe especially the 48-hour rest really helps the cookies flavor. It's been fun. Experimenting.
