how to create the circumstances to think and make decisions
Hello, ADD-"enjoyer" here.
I think I am not alone when, typically, I am constantly overwhelmed. Too many thoughts and impulses. So I don't make a lot of decisions; I usually respond to other people's decisions or I let me guide by suggestions from the people around me.
Now I am in the situation that some things are changing at my work. I have actual influence this time, I could say "next year I want to work on X" and X might actually be my new job.
I have some ideas where to start thinking (start writing down random thoughts and see if I can make a list), but as I am always overwhelmed I am having trouble to "find the right mood". I always get distracted by other thoughts and I always end up doing things entirely unrelated (currently I am baking bread, collecting documents for my insurance, and I am almost ready to pick a new e-mail provider)
Does this feel familiar to anyone? Probably ;-)
I feel like I need the right circumstances. Should I start with some mindfulness-excercises? Walk for a bit? Find an empty room with no distractions? Find some good background music?
How do you deal with this? What works for you?
Thanks for your input :-)
Touch and go - Would you...?
The least subtle song of the 90s, both in lyrics and the trumpet.. or do you know less subtle ones?
Secret life
How are you enjoying Secret Life until now? I've had a lot of laughs and I only watched Gem and Mumbo. Still need to watch Grian and Etho, they are always very good at being there with all the shenanigans. Anyone else I should watch this time?
(Also this is bad for my real life, so much stuff to watch)
how and where are you playing?
Just curious... Do you play on a multiplayer server? If yes, what kind of? Do you use a modloader on your client?
Are you playing vanilla or modded? (I consider QoL mods like MiniHUD or Xaero's Map almost vanilla but ofcourse not everyone agrees)
I play:
- on a whitelisted SMP (I had to look that up.. Survival Multiplayer) which is almost Vanilla (you can use a Vanilla client) - aimed at adult players (25+)
- Ocassionally single player just to try out different modded versions or things (I might play create for 2 days and then leave it at that)
- Currently playing on a members-only Create server
Oh yeah, only Java. Never played bedrock. I tried for 5 minutes on my phone and it's not for me.
moving from cloud to my own network
Hello,
I am hosting a shared Minecraft server (10-15 users usually) on dedicated hardware somewhere at OVH. I am considering moving this server to my home. I would save 25$ per month doing this, which would be my main motivation.
I am aware of other considerations (I'll mention them later) but maybe I am missing something? Is there anyone who did the reverse (hosting a service with multiple users, moving them from your home to a hosting company) and what was your reason
Things I already considered:
- when my electricity/connection goes down the server goes down (that's ok it's just a game and my connection has always been very very stable)
- hosting at home eats bandwidth (I have 50mbit which is way more than I use, I don't stream or download much)
- electricity costs money too
- when the server is compromised my home network is compromised (handling servers and networks is my hobby and my job, I think I can make it safe)
Thank you for your thoughts!
Hoe eten jullie Whisky Cocktail saus?
Ik had het nooit gekocht. Mijn kind zei dat ze het lekker vond dus nu hebben we het in huis.
Waar doe je het op? Brood? "Lekker bij de BBQ" vond ik op internet dus op je half rauwe half verkoolde worstje? Kaas? Pindakaas? Frikandel?
opinion: villager trading are overpowered and should be nerfed
Like I said, it is my personal opinion, but: Villager trading mechanics and iron farms are too strong. They make a large part of the game unnecessary to play and thus should be nerfed.
Without villagers I will have to combine different gameplay mechanics to get my resources (mining for diamonds, iron, redstone, lapis; animals, crops, exploration to get some resources like ender pearls, I need to find XP to get enchantments, etcetera). With villagers you can replace the start- and mid-game with setting up your trading hall, which is not fun at all (everyone hates villager pathfinding and all the little ways they can lose their assigned workstation) and after that you can go directly to beating the dragon and finishing the game.
I have only been playing a couple of years, trading was already there when I started. How was the reception of the villagers trading mechanics? Why did people think this was a good idea?
pterodactyl, mineOS or something else?
This is a question that was recently answered on the other non-federated thing in admincraft, but it's inaccesible now :-)
So what's your favorite way to deal with managing your minecraft server?
I have a very basic paper server with floodgate/geyser, I'm updating everything by hand now, but it would be so nice to have a GUI :-)
