1080p same as last year
On a serious note I want to quit smoking but the reason I smoke is stress from the job so not sure how to approach that. Thinking of just going cold turkey since I am not a chain smoker and only smoke 3-5 cigarettes a day so the withdrawals should be manageable.
this is an underrated joke.
Alan Carr- the easy way to quit smoking. It actually helps but you have to want to quit and really, actually follow the instructions. It works though.
Quitting (anything) has a lot to do with you as a person. Some people can just do it cold turkey - they just have to try, others it’s a battle, but it is always better to start the journey, you’re worth it.
You guys are replying to a 2 year old comment. Very curious to see if they’ve quit by now!
Hahah!
I feel you. There’s only one antidote: time.
- It’s good to make a disclaimer to anyone around you at work, family, etc. You will be more nervous and you cold act like an ass sometimes. You can bet on it.
- Don’t take important decisions in the next month.
- You will gain weight. Less smoke brings more food cravings. Try to compensate with walking.
- Find something to fill your mouth. I used Liquorice root (helps me also with low blood pressure so it was a no brainer for me).
- Keep on keeping on (cit.). You’ll have now and then desire, not need, desire to come back smoking. Compensate that with the thought of being free. Good Luck mate.
I don’t make them because they feel silly. So instead I’m going to make improvements in my life when and where it feels natural, and hope I don’t die in the meantime, as I do every year.
I find myself vowing to make changes year round as well. But sometimes a tradition like this can be a good reminder. I was already planning to do more reading, so since I remembered resolutions are a thing, I guess that can be my resolution.
Motherfucker, it’s July.
I’ve been seeing quite many older posts from 2-3 years ago popping up lately. Wonder why.
The great Lemmy temporal mystery continues!
Shit. We need to close the portal.
I posted this on 2022 new years. But what’s your July resolution?
Hmm, well, I’ve been trying to stay out of the sun as much as possible…
Maybe he means financial new year’s resolution eg. Diversify your bonds
This comment broke me, I laughed so hard I woke up the wife
Learn C programming
Thanks! I already have this though. I am actually using a newer book for now, because I am not that smart and need more elaborate explanations. Don’t worry, I am not looking for a job, just a hobby that I enjoy.
great
And have you heard of Zig? You might be interested in it for your future projects :)
I have not, until now, heard of Zig - checking out the website right now. I’m literally very early in my C learning. Trying to get through the chapters on Arrays and Pointers in the book I am working from and its not going well!
I actually don’t have projects to work on now, learning C is just a mental challenge that I mostly enjoy doing. For now, but I may have hit my wall and its barely the 2nd of January!

Try to not procrastinate as much as I do. Learn Rust, improve in marcial arts (I really suck tbh) and practice more sport meanwhile.
Also not sleeping in class will be a nice thing to accomplish…
Wait 2 weeks before start going back to the gym, so that all the people with “year resolutions” get bored and make room for me.
I’ve worked in a gym…I can assure you that your reasoning is sound…if you delay the resolution two weeks, you will definitely get plenty of space at the gym …just make sure to start before summer months, when people start their gym goals again.
To make more Free Debian GNU/Linux (stable) installations.

To keep on improving and enjoying life.
Nothing really, getting out of depression would be nice.

If you can follow directions and only follow from arch wiki…it’s actually much easier than everyone says and pacman is wonderful and super fast…even large updates take mere minutes.
Also, insofar as things “breaking” after updates that’s mostly hyperbole, especially for a casual user.
A real challenge (skill and patience) would be Gentoo! But again, with following directions it’s doable

I try to learn something every year. One year it was to solve a rubiks cube, one year it was how to ride a unicycle. Juggle. Magic tricks. Shit like that. My thought is that if I need a resolution to change something negative or start doing something positive, I shouldn’t wait till 1/1 to start that, I should start that as soon as I see a problem/opportunity.
