But what helped me: often smoking is part of a daily routine or ritual, so mix up your routine. Take up a new hobby or take the bus instead of the car. Go for a walk after lunch. Giving up smoking is a big change, so don't be afraid to make big changes. Get new clothes. Make new friends. You have discarded your old identity as a smoker. Still smoking? Doesn't matter! You already want to stop - you're becoming that person already.

And don't be so hard on yourself if you have a smoke now and then. Be conscious of what situation or routine triggered the reflex, and change it in future. If you have a smoke every few days or weeks, don't sweat it, you've broken addiction as far as I'm concerned!

Back in the 80s, Don Norman popularized the term affordance. Humans need something to push, pull, turn or otherwise interact with. We are physical beings in a physical world.

Driving vehicles is potentially life-endangering. Just because the technology is there and cheaper does not mean that humans can push aside their physiological limitations in a critical situation.

Take the emergency blinker. You know where it is, you see it all the time - it's right there in front of you! But when a real emergency happens, you'll be fumbling for the button, concentrating on the situation at hand. Now imagine that button on a touchscreen.

Was hat Landespolitik mit Außenpolitik zu tun? Wenn die BSW so wenig kompromissbereit ist dann sollen die halt in die Opposition gehen.

Just recently saw a video of an experimental self driving vehicle from Bosch - from the 90's!

You could imagine we'd be much further now, considering how far computing power, computer vision and AI have come.

In welche Randsportarten seid ihr so unterwegs? (lemmy.ml)

Mein Schwiegervater ist recht sportbegeistert - zumindest, wenn es um das Schauen geht. Kürzlich habe ich mitbekommen, dass er auch zu Baseballspiele geht. Da ich auch mal in der Schule Baseball gespielt habe und es eigentlich ganz cool fand, bin ich mal mit.

Und da habe ich gelernt, dass unsere Stadt eine Bundesliga-Mannschaft hat, die sogar 2 Mal Meister war. Was die Zuschauerzahl betrifft, erübrigt sich ein Vergleich zu Fußball ganz klar. Allerdings hätte ich nicht gedacht, dass Bundesligaspiele bei Damenvolleyball sogar viel größer sind. Erster Eindruck: es ist mehr los an einem Fussballspielfest mit unserem Kleinen.

Es waren vielleicht 300 Leute da. Die gegnerische Mannschaft hat den Parkplatz mit ihren Wohnwagen zugestellt. Es gab Fritten und Würstchen, und ein Stand mit Kaffee und Kuchen (bestimmt von den Vereinsmitgliedern gespendet).

Aber ganz ehrlich? Alles völlig egal! Ich will nicht sagen es waren entschleunigende drei Stunden, aber Baseball ist schon eine recht gemütliche Sportart. Den Abend habe ich genossen, und würde es gerne wiederholen.

Jetzt aber zur eigentlichen Frage: welche Randsportarten habt ihr kennengelernt oder frönt ihr aktiv?

Why does Gemini appeal to you? What are you using it for? (lemmy.ml)

Way back in the 90s I discovered gopher. It was magical, like some difficult to navigate, decaying place hidden from a web going corporate even back then. The problem I had with it was I couldn't find anything of use.

Now, looking at gemini, I get the same vibe. It has the same magical promise.

What do you use gemini for? For information or just browsing around? Do you want to create a blog or other content? Why in gemini and not on the web?
