Music is ❤️
I often use it when I have to clean something or have monotonous work to do that I already put off for a long time.
I can't work without music. I'm always listening to something.
A few things, but the thing that really does it is fixing things. Not building things, fixing things. Taking the time to test things and repair them. Particularly electronics.
Buying old painted and possibly broken warhammer miniatures for me. Stripping the paint, rapairing and restoring. Used to like fixing PCs but electronica have gotten too small and complex for me to deal with.
For me its often a few dozen laps on a racimg sim, or playing guitar and singing loudly. It can vary, though.
I used to be absolutely obsessed with sim racing. Nowadays, I still enjoy it, but I often get overwhelmed with the range of choice (even when I pick a sim to play, I still have to pick an activity, car, track, opponents, etc), so I often just don't start.
What's your sim of choice? Do you mainly do hotlaps?
For a long time, I only played Project Cars 2. I've got like 2,500 hours in it on playstation lol.
I like hotlapping to relax, but much prefer a nice clean circuit race with other drivers.
I don't play on playstation any more and have been trying to find my new game, but not so successfully. I like Automobilista 2 because it reminds me a lot of PCars2, but I've also been playing a bit of RaceRoom and Dirt Rally 2.0.
What is your preferred game / race format?
I go from sim to sim, but at the moment I'm playing mostly AMS2 and LMU. A year or two ago, I was playing nothing but ACC, and I've also spent a fair bit of time in raceroom, dabbled in AC, F1 games, iRacing, etc
As for preferred race format, I prefer to race against AI, if possible, 30-60 mins, sometimes shorter if I have less time and/or energy. Depends how familiar I am with the car/track as well. Recently I've just been lapping in different cars, trying out all the new content that has come out since I last played (like the 2005 GT1 cars in AMS2 - very nice)
If the AI is good, I can get behind that. But then, I say the same for people. I just don't like noob lobbies where passing someone means dodging them trying to ram you off of the track.
Feel free to DM me if you want to play some AMS2 or Raceroom on steam at some point! Idt i have ams downloaded at teh moment, but was considering making space for it anyway. I'm also open to ACC and (if it works on linux now) LMU, but again, I'd need to DL them again.
Chess. It's controlled infinity. I can control the speed and dimension of tactics.
I procrastinate things with more productive projects
The only thing that really scratches that itch for me is finishing a good series/book/video game.
I get into hyper-focusing on my computer configuration. That's stuff like Neovim configs, NixOS configs, sometimes keyboard firmware. Or hobby programming.
Why am I in all of these comments?
Definitely music. Recently I've begun a decompilarion attempt on an NES rom for fun. Learning about NES assembly along the way.
When did wanting alone time as a dad get co-opted by ADHD?
Bruv live that single life for a few hours and do what you love.
