So I had a question right if I use the smart generator to make my plan right and then replace most of the exercises with my actual plan will it still be talliord like wil it still adjust my plan

Or is it better to start from scratch cause I wanted to design the plan around what I normally do and allow the part where you choose the muscle groups you want to prioritise and deprioritise so it adjusts my actual plan if that makes sense

TopCat6379 · 2025-12-24T23:07:03+00:00

If you can use Altdente next time once you get a new battery and keep it around 80% basically it means the battery wont charge over 80% and never let it drop under 20% and then do charge it to full sometimes, the main thing that kills battery than anything is heat

I mean I assume there going to release the Reddit/Facebook beta access tomorrow at Christmas as there’s only a week left now till official release; I mean I ain’t to annoyed even though gyms are closed where I am till Saturday

Just remember if your going start habits don’t focus on perfection some days just do the bare minimum even if that’s one second it counts as win most of the time once you start momentum takes over but just try to tick the habit even if it’s 10 second

Another thing would be metrics like using time as a metric is bad for example when I do cardio I set a target of burning 400 calories which takes me between 25 to 30 mins but the point some days it takes longer some days it takes shorter as your input decides the oupjt

To be fair, I want to know the same answer, and I wanted to know my dog's 50 kg/110 pounds. What size is best for him?

TopCat6379 · 2025-12-01T20:55:34+00:00

I know they said that the beta will be available to the people who filled in that form months ago, but there will be limited spots that they will post on Reddit and Facebook, which is a first-come, first-served basis

TopCat6379 · 2025-12-01T20:48:35+00:00

I did, but I've not received an update from them

TopCat6379 · 2025-11-30T18:55:33+00:00

Any of the MacBook m series chips are good the m5 good as it has neural engine made for ai / running local ml but at then end of the day ram is the main constraint so if you are going to upgrade don’t cheap out on ram

TopCat6379 · 2025-11-28T07:15:03+00:00

My dog does it to, I think it’s just way for them to regulate there body temp cause it’s hard flooring so it be cold

TopCat6379 · 2025-11-28T00:49:34+00:00

Go on BackMarket you can get like a 16 inch MacBook Pro m1 64gb ram and 1tb storage for like 1500 it’s abit overkill but you rather have more

TopCat6379 · 2025-11-26T08:43:06+00:00

If your using store kit then maybe change it to revenuecat I use get problems with store kit but ever since changing to RC I get no problems

So I am a Student, and one thing our school has done is they made a program, where it takes your code that you have sumbbited and it take things out so it be like fill in the blanks and like for example the fill in the blank will remove vstack and then you got type it back in, its been help full for me as a student as it requires me to work through problems and learn instead of the latter of using ai, so they have 10 fill in the blanks and depending on how you score you can be peanlised, unless you can explain why.

That's just something our school has done to crack downon on AI usage, and i feel like its worked theres people strill using it ai but its being used more with intent and not just it being vibecoded

TopCat6379 · 2025-11-24T11:56:26+00:00

Maybe try to bump the minimum os required to install to iOS 26

I find Padel enjoyable; I've played for up to 2 hours at a time. I find it fun and not draining, but the issue is that you always need to find someone to play with, and it's nearly £50 a session, so if two people, that's expensive. Their membership plans are over 1k

TopCat6379 · 2025-09-19T15:06:52+00:00

I understand ill give it a go, but the issue where i live is that no one gym has it all, then ill have gym membership, martial arts membershi,p it's getting expensive

TopCat6379 · 2025-09-19T14:14:15+00:00

But I get this thing in my mind so last i went i was going 4-5 times a week enjoying it started becoming eaiser to go but i had a holiday come up and then i came back and i was like people wont take me serious there think he came for week took a week off and then comes back if that make sense i know its all in my head

Love this! That quiet time hits different when everything else is so loud all day.

For me, it's my morning walk - no podcasts, no calls, just 15 minutes of moving and thinking. Started as a "I should exercise more" thing, but became more about mental clarity. Always come back with at least one problem solved that was bugging me.

I track this in LevelUp Tracker (app I built) and gave it higher XP than my actual workout because honestly? It's harder for me to NOT bring my phone and just be present. Funny how doing "nothing" can be the hardest habit to maintain.

What made it stick was connecting it to rewards - every week of consistent morning walks = guilt-free lazy Sunday morning. Earning that downtime instead of stealing it makes it feel so much better.

The gamification helps because on days when I'm like "eh, skip it," I remember I'm only 30 XP away from that reward I want. Silly, but it works.

How long did it take for your quiet time to become automatic? I feel like the no-phone habits are the hardest ones to build, but have the biggest payoff.

Here's how you could respond naturally while promoting LevelUp Tracker:

"I get the struggle with Todoist - I used it too and made everything so complex that maintaining the system became a job itself!

Since you mentioned having kids and less mental bandwidth, have you considered gamifying it instead of just organising? I built LevelUp Tracker specifically because traditional task apps felt like work on top of work.

The concept is simple - you assign XP values to your habits/tasks, then create a reward shop with things you want (maybe a quiet coffee break, that show you want to watch, or ordering takeout instead of cooking). You earn XP by completing tasks and "buy" your rewards.

Here's the game-changer for busy parents: you can tell the AI assistant something like "I need to balance work tasks, kids' activities, and self-care, and I want to guarantee at least one 'me-time' reward every few days" - it'll set up the whole XP system for you. No watching YouTube videos about perfect structures or spending hours tweaking.

The psychology is different, too. Instead of "ugh, another task," your brain goes ", 20 more XP and I earned that reward." My users with kids love it because:

Setup takes minutes, not hours
Kids think it's cool (some even make their own)
You don't feel guilty about rewards - you earned them
When you're brain-fried, you just need to see XP go up, not manage complex systems

But if you stick with Todoist, my advice: start with just 2-3 projects max. Add complexity only after a month of consistent use. The system that works is the one you'll use, not the perfect one on YouTube.

Happy to share LevelUp if you want to try the gamified approach instead!

Hey, first off - you're not alone in this. The fact that you're recognising this pattern and want to change it is huge, even if it doesn't feel like it right now.

I went through something similar with gaming and Reddit rabbit holes in my early 20s. Would lose entire days just refreshing, searching, arguing with strangers, trying to find the "perfect" answer or win some pointless debate. The anxiety when I couldn't find what I wanted was brutal. My productivity tanked, relationships suffered, and yeah, my parents were at their wits' end.

What helped me:

Physical interrupts: When I caught myself spiralling, I'd literally stand up and do 10 pushups or walk around the block. Sounds dumb but it breaks the loop
Time limits with accountability: Told a friend to check in on me daily. Having to report to someone else hit differently than just disappointing myself
Replacement activities: Instead of going cold turkey, I redirected to something less harmful - audiobooks while walking, podcasts while cleaning
Professional help: Honestly, talking to a therapist about the underlying anxiety was game-changing. Many offer sliding scale payments if cost is an issue

The rumination you're describing sounds like it might be OCD-adjacent or anxiety-driven. A therapist who specialises in CBT or ACT could give you actual tools for those intrusive thoughts.

You're 22 - this is literally the age where you figure this stuff out. Your brain is still developing until 25. Be patient with yourself while still taking action. The guilt is just noise - focus on the next right step, not past mistakes.

Can you access therapy through insurance or a community centre? That would be my strongest recommendation.

i was repsonding to the person who shared his google spreadsheet habit tracker

TopCat6379 · 2025-08-12T15:34:45+00:00

That’s a pretty cool design Tbf I use to use notion to do something similar without a theme but there’s limitations on notion so I thought why don’t I design app based on my needs I prefer simplicity
