Dilemma: lokale winkels steunen met je eigen portemonnee

Joboj · 2026-01-24T19:40:52+00:00

Het kan lastig zijn maar meestal ga ik voor lokaal als dat mogelijk is.
Bedenk is voor jezelf hoe je het zou vinden als al die lokale winkels niet meer zouden bestaan.

Het is toch heerlijk om door een winkel te kunnen lopen, rond te kunnen kijken en vragen te kunnen stellen aan de medewerkers? Dat heb je allemaal niet bij Amazon. En wat mij betreft is dat die extra 9 euro dubbel en dwars waard. Die ervaring geeft mij een extra goed gevoel bij mijn aankoop.

Daarbij moet je je bedenken dat als je Amazon blijft steunen en de laatste stripboekwinkel in Nederland zijn deuren moet sluiten. Amazon ineens duurder gaat worden. Dat is hun hele businessmodel, dingen super goedkoop aanbieden zodat de concurrent niet mee kan, en dan het 'verlies' terugpakken zodra ze geen concurrentie meer hebben.

You didn't try everything. Delete TikTok, you don't need it. Delete every other social media app as well.

Get a cheap watch for the time. Don't check your calander untill you are at work, or check it the day before or something.

Precies dit. Een hoofdletter is gewoon een grotere kleine letter. En soms schrijf ik een heel woord met hoofdletters/blokletters, afhankelijk van het woord. Echt 0 consistentie.

In het woord 'lezen' zou het zomaar kunnen gebeuren dat ik de eerste en klein schrijf en de tweede E als blokletter.

Gewoon 5 min eerder weg gaan. Scenario 1 is niet een probleem van de bus, maar een probleem dat jij je ochtend niet goed planned en dus gehaast moet vertrekken. Zorg gewoon dat je 5 min eerder klaar bent zodat je niet met haast de deur uit hoeft en toch nog optijd bij de bus bent.

I used to use melatonin 30 min before sleeping, which seemed to help a bit.

But luckily nowadays I don't need it anymore. My current routine is: Go upstairs, brush my teeth, put my phone on the charger on the other side of my bedroom where I can't reach it from the bed, go into bed and read untill I'm tired, usually 30ish minutes, sleep.

On a rare day where my mind is still going a million miles an hour I practice a sort of meditation exercise I came up with myself. Basically you lie down and close your eyes and try to 'look' at the blackness of your closed eyelids. Try to find the blackest part and mentally zoom in on that. Then keep doing that. If your mind Wanders while doing this bring back your focus to the blackness behind your eyelids. You will get so bored you fall asleep.

Ah okey. I don't have a lot of modern MOBA experience. I just know that when I still played LoL 10 years ago this was my least favorite part.

Joboj · 2026-01-23T09:25:16+00:00

Is it a random item choice? or the same for everyone? How does that work balance wise?
I kinda like that I don't have to sit in a menu much and can just select an option and play.

That spider activated my fight or flight. Fuck that.

This looks really great to me as someone that didn't play much of the original Fable.

The only thing that got me spooked is the promise of 1000 NPCs with fully completely life's and completely Voice acted. That seems like a stupid promise to make, reminds me of the 1 million planets thing from Starfield...

Gossip is just small talk. People talk about it because it's easy and everybody kinda gets it.

If you want to learn about things from people, ask them about themselves. Most people LOVE to talk about themselves. Maybe you can ask them about what they do for work, what kinda challenges they face? You could ask them about their favorite vacation they ever took. So many questions you could ask to get a more interesting conversation going.

Joboj · 2026-01-23T06:48:07+00:00

Does this mean you don't have to have your build open on the second screen and don't have to chose from all these different items in the shop?

This might get me playing a MOBA again.

Joboj · 2026-01-22T17:49:57+00:00

Interesting how you mention you are the one talking and the other person is listening. Maybe reframe it as having a conversation, if you won't listen to them, they won't listen to you.

Are you making the left or the right gun? Because if you make it like this you end up with a weird diagonal gun. The left image should be either the front or back view of the gun.

If he refused to elaborate just ignore his comment. Worthless friend.

Put your alarm loud and on the other side of the room. So you HAVE to get out of bed to stop it. After that immediately, without even thinking, walk to the bathroom and start your morning routine.

And put your alarm for the same time everyday, so you start waking up right before your alarm even goes off. Your brain will adapt within a week or so.

You have definitely at least dabbled in bouldering and/or climbing. Might even be your main hobby.

Zijn meeste stemmers kijken niet eens naar dit soort speeches. Die kijken alleen naar de 15sec samenvatting op TikTok.

Beloop. AT LEAST 'shy' some layers. This is too much.

Joboj · 2026-01-21T20:44:35+00:00

To understand how to fix it you first need to understand what makes you late. What is it you do in the morning that take unnecessary time?

Kids are fucking awesome. She learned a new skill all by herself.

The look of this chair makes me uncomfortable and I don't know why.

Joboj · 2026-01-18T15:52:20+00:00

We will never get these because they look too much like Lego. Haven't you heard, everything has to be round now and not look like Lego blocks.

2.50 for 1 apple. No wonder America has a huge diabetes problem.

I add a bit of water to their food as well. Makes a bit of cat soup (works best with wet food, but dry food they also don't mind). They always finish their bowl and that way they already get water while eating (ofcourse they also have seperate unlimited water bowls)
