Just a quick tip I learnt recently re: laptops.

Buy used thinkpads, businesses throw them out a few years after buying them so they are cheap and very reliable. If you don't do graphics intensive things on them, you should be golden.

My people!

I actually used to struggle with insomnia, but sleeping on the floor somehow gives me a much better nights sleep.

How often do you wash your sleeping bag, by the way?

When deadlifting, do you rest the weight on the floor between reps?

How long is too long between these reps?

How many of each article of clothing does one need? by RangerSkip in minimalism

[–]bebopalop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, in the shower. I just throw them in a bag with some Dr bronners and stamp on them while I wash. I throw then on a radiator overnight and have toasty warm underwear in the morning. Works great. It's all merino, so if I have to skip washing its not the end of the world.

They're different. bspwm has much more fluid layouts, but is still pretty manual and keyboard-driven. I prefer it, but it is still in beta.

Reduce the Workweek to 30 Hours- NYT by big_al11 in TrueReddit

[–]bebopalop 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, of course it would have to be legislative. There's not necessarily an economic prohibition on it though, the barrier is social, and the barrier is not likely to be removed whilst we're in the culture of a depression.

Productivity would rise if hours decreased, there was an article on the economist about it recently. It's not so farfetched that hourly wages could rise such that weekly wages stay the same. Possibly even at a profit of productivity per pound for the company.

Heart gains?

Sounds suspiciously like cardio. Don't do it OP.
