Blue collar dudes yell into cellphones. Doesn't matter how smart. They just do. It used to drive me nuts but I get it now.

When I do it? Yes. J/k

I was always a slower runner but this technique allowed me to get my pace faster without injury. It takes time to understand the technique, build muscle memory, and then increase your pace.

But when I was really into this and running daily (something impossible for me before learning forefoot strike) I had no problem really pouring it on within the limits of my ability. The technique requires a more forward lean for higher pace and it's not going to work day one. I think I was probably a month into it before I really understood that aspect and then it started adding sprints every so often into my normal pace.

I no longer run due to a myriad of health issues but this post popped up. Watch a video on "chi running". Overly dramatic name for forefoot running. Hard to do at first but really pays off. The book is good but a few years ago didn't offer much over the free videos I found.

There was a time when you didn't know what ad blockers were, that you could install them, and which one was best. You learned that at some point. Every day, there are many, many people who learn this for the first time.

Can you please share what you are using to help this person?

You are completely correct and normalizing gun violence is a way to justify not restricting access.

I use an index card with the book name on it. Find something good? Write the page number and a word or two about what you noticed. It's useful when reading books you might want to return to as references.

You got me. This is good. Some say it's the best one.

Prepared to be roasted alive for this opinion but studies (undoubtedly of white, middle class, US undergrads) seem to indicate women find clutter and messes more psychologically distressing than men do.

I'm a man but I've had many deadbeat guys as roommates and I am definitely far more bothered by messes and clutter than they were so I kind of get this.

If you are the "mind it more" person, you will find yourself rage cleaning because the other person can wait you out as long as they want if they are taking you for granted and not concerned you'll leave over this.

So there are two toxic traits here:

  1. A willingness to wait out chores even if you know it's angering people you are with.

  2. A kind of willful blindness. "Honestly, I didn't think it was that bad."

The second one might be worse.

The first is excusable (plausible deniability) with the "men are oblivious" defense if the aggrieved party is not being overt in their request that a chore be done.

The second is a person (some women obviously do this, too) refusing to learn to empathize and recognize when things are getting to the point where it's bothering the other person. From an interpersonal perspective this is probably more infuriating over the years.

Back when Trump was running for 2016, my brother (really into finance) said "he wants to keep his interest rates low" because he (everyone who cared) knew Trump was heavily leveraged. This was before all the other crazy tendencies came to light, of course.

For a long time I ssh'd into my vps to manage tasks and notes in emacs and even play dwarf fortress.

With utilities like screen you can rejoin sessions anywhere, etc.

Have you tried this?

Never tried to get a GUI running like this.

Try "you're facing your fears today" for an even stronger reaction!

 

Hi, is anyone else experiencing involuntary limb movement in sleep?

I was put on a Parkinson's drug (small dose before bed) which was effective at first but isn't really working now.

I'm calling the specialist tomorrow to discuss it but wanted to see if anyone here had a similar issue?

Hi everyone, I couldn't find an ObsidianMD community here so I made one for us to discuss obsidian.
