What is a small, achievable aspiration of yours?
What is a small, achievable aspiration of yours?
Something you would really like to do or see, that you could reasonably achieve without too much expense or hassle.
One of mine is to combine a weekend of mountain biking with a music festival. I want to wake up early in the morning and ride until my legs are dead, then spend the afternoon and evening eating, drinking, and listening to great music until it's time to go to bed. Then wake up the next morning and do it over again. I have the spot all picked out. One of these summers I will prioritize the time to make it happen.
This is too good. I'm stealing.
Oh boy do I have a related thing for you: https://www.domwhiting.co.uk
Do any cities still have Critical Mass rides? I could totally see this guy showing up to one of those.
Doing a hand stand. Never gotten around to it, but it would be nice to do before I die
I legitimately just want to keep the house clean.
Become the best around and don't let anything keep me down.
I’d like to get fired so that I am forced to do something else.
I want to replace my curtains with sufficiently dense vine plants. Not across the whole house, mind you. Just on the window in my room.
Set up a Matrix homeserver. I have the server, it's got Linux on it already...
I have just never used Ansible, and I'm just s little nervous about exposing it to the internet even though I also have an Ansible Linux hardening playbook I plan to do before the Matrix-docker playbook.
I already got a domain from Njalla and found a ddns (ddclient) that is supposed to work with Njalla for a dynamic IP.
Self hosting is a fun thing to learn about. It is very good that we have good communities to share tips and tricks with too. I am very novice to it myself.
I could change the outlet on my kitchen counter, it's very old and plugs hang loose
I can learn how to code due to unfortunate circumstances since I have alot of time now. It seems achievable if I let my doctor know I’m mentally struggling some how, but more barriers have been removed for me to study effectively now so I don’t think I need to tell the doc
Similar to @[email protected] I want to use an old laptop to create a Jellyfin + arr server.
Also want to build a workbench for myself in the garage.
I want to make my art look like it was rendered in an old 2000's era game. I know that's oddly specific but there's just something about that look I really love, you know how back then the reflections were fake rather than raytraced? I love that look, so computery and oddly charming!
I want to get some of the local magpies to start eating out of my hand by summer time.
I want to make a video game. Nothing big or ambitious, just something that makes me happy. I have programming experience, I just can't stop procrastinating...
I want to learn to power slide on a longboard.
I like to do calisthenics, just exercise with your body, and see how much I can do. I am not very fit and often lose conditioning due to work and other interests, but when i get back on it I like to give myself small goals of doing certain amount of reps or running a certain distance or time. You don't need to go all in as if you were a pro athlete either. A small amount of exercise takes you a long way.
Academically I have challenged myself to do a problem a week from some of my old textbooks. Its a low enough bar that I can clear it even when busy.
