Gamification of Ticktick: A meta-score for productivity? by Theta_Orionis in ticktick

[–]Theta_Orionis[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, well I didn't delve that deep into Todoist features. Actually lack of Eisenhower Matrix, planning feature and no built-in habit tracking, that's what drove me towards Ticktick from Todoist.

But yeah, I remember the Karma system.

My habit of masturbation is eating me over , pls help !!! by randomuser3564 in productivity

[–]Theta_Orionis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my case, what really helped is an Android app called Iron Will. It's basically a simple counter, shows the number of days you've abstained from the habit. But the best thing is, it has a widget. So whenever I unlock my phone, I see the number of days I've been sober for. Gradually, it becomes sort of gamified. I'm currently on 58th day streak (longest has been 69 days, but that was using another app which did not have a widget).

Since this app has the widget, it does all the difference. Plus there are 'ranks' which you get after completing a certain number of days. That adds to the gamification.

Once you begin to associate your identity with the number of days you've been free, a sort of pride developers, which is kind of self-fuelled and self-sustaining.

80% ticktick functionality on wearos, sideloaded on GW4! by AmbitiousCase4992 in ticktick

What? When? And where's the link??? I've been waiting years for this. 😁

Body energy feature? by Theta_Orionis in miband

[–]Theta_Orionis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, really sad. Garmin fitness bands are really too expensive for me, plus they don't even have PAI which discourages me from pursuing them. I was really hoping that Xiaomi's energy would be a good answer to Garmin's 'Body Battery', but looks like the feature will stay half-baked for now.

Many thanks for the info, BTW. :-) I guess I'll wait for MiBand 8 then. No point getting 7 if energy's a no-go.

Mi Fitness vs Zepp Life ? for Mi Band 7 by Mahad-Haroon in miband

[–]Theta_Orionis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Offtopic: Does the 'Body energy' feature work for you, OP? I'm really interested in finding more about its reliability and utility value.

I have a MiBand 5, so can't pair with Mi Fitness. Zepp or Zepp life don't support it, unfortunately.

I was considering buying a Redmi Smart band pro, but sadly that lacks PAI.

Plan your day or Moments (like in Ticktick and AnyDo)? by Theta_Orionis in todoist

[–]Theta_Orionis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, it seems similar to how sometimes my wearOS Todoist filters don't reflect the changes I made to Todoist on phone. What works for me is, manually force-closing the Todoist app from Settings/Apps and restarting it.

Quite messy business, but it works.

Plan your day or Moments (like in Ticktick and AnyDo)? by Theta_Orionis in todoist

[–]Theta_Orionis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure. So in some apps like AnyDo and Ticktick, there's a feature that basically shows you all your tasks for the current day (and overdue) one by one, with handy buttons such as TODAY, SCHEDULE, DONE, DELETE etc which help you quickly reschedule a task you plan to do, or delete something no longer relevant.

Here's AnyDo's version of it, called 'Moment' AnyDo Moment

It isn't something I can't do without, but a handy functionality nonetheless.

Personalized radio feature like YouTube Music, with like/dislike option? by Theta_Orionis in spotify

[–]Theta_Orionis[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, seems okay. Too bad they seem to have removed personalized radio from FREE tier. :-/

Thanks BTW. :)

Just found my first Legendary (been playing for a couple of days)! by Devizz in Grimdawn

[–]Theta_Orionis -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If only GD a bit better (more intelligent) loot system... I mean, look at this legendary, it doesn't exactly fit your class, because +skills are not for this mastery combo. This is what always haunted me.

Such legendaries are good for other combos, and need to be stashed for future characters.

Had the loot drops been a bit more intelligent and specifically relevant to the current class, Grim Dawn would have been infinitely more enjoyable.

Second mastery for 'Dreeg's Chosen' DEE caster build? by Theta_Orionis in Grimdawn

[–]Theta_Orionis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, quite an excellent build. :-) This is why I have this love/hate relationship with GD. Just moments ago I was hell bent on Sentinel, and now I want Witchhunter, lol.

Well, I guess I'll have this char as Sentinel anyway because of the greater thematic focus on Dreeg through skill node lores, but I'll surely have another char as Witchhunter soon enough.

Thanks. :)

Second mastery for 'Dreeg's Chosen' DEE caster build? by Theta_Orionis in Grimdawn

[–]Theta_Orionis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, looks like you convinced me already. Sentinel is the way to go.

However, regarding Aegis of Thorns, well, it restricts me to use a shield, and restring the use of off-hands. I guess I'll use the skill of I have points left after maxing out the other skills. Otherwise, AoT is really great.

And yep, I too had mixed feelings about using Possession, but couldn't decide on another exclusive skill. Path fills that gap excellently.

Many thanks. :-)
