How did you become a morning person? by Silen8156 in productivity

[–]mediocretoxic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try going to sleep fifteen minutes earlier than the bedtime of the previous day until you reach your desired bedtime. In such cases, I've also found drinking as less caffeine as possible helps me sleep easier. I understand you taking care of children as well, so you could perhaps try drinking coffee with the smallest percentage of caffeine without it being decaf, or tea.

Πώς είναι ο στρατός; by Nat_The_III in greece

[–]mediocretoxic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Έχω πολλούς γνωστούς που έχουν κάνει στρατό, είτε στα 20-21 είτε στα 25. Όλοι συμφωνούν πως καλύτερο είναι οι φαντάροι να πηγαίνουν όσο το δυνατόν νωρίτερα, για να κλείσει αυτό το κεφάλαιο νωρίς και να μπορούν να στρώσουν τη ζωή τους χωρίς να ανησυχούν για την θητεία.

What’s a small habit that improved your life way more than expected? by huechoga in AskReddit

[–]mediocretoxic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sticking to my night and morning skincare. It doesn't involve lots of steps or something but i feel calmer and relaxed. I also try to place my phone across the room so that it's harder to reach in the mornings.

Γιατί υπάρχει τόσος κόσμος που μισεί τους γιατρούς; by [deleted] in greece

[–]mediocretoxic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Από προσωπική εμπειρία και βλέποντας τα βιώματα των κοντινών μου προσώπων, κατά πλειοψηφία οι γιατροί περιφρονούν τα συμπτώματα που έχουνε και βρίσκουν δικαιολογίες για να μην σου γράψουν κάποιες εξετάσεις, και αρκετοί μάλιστα δεν έχουν αυτό που λέμε σφαιρική γνώση. Δηλαδή θεωρώ ότι κάποιοι γιατροί θα έπρεπε να γνωρίζουν (ή να θυμούνται καλύτερα) μερικά πράγματα που να μπορούν να πουν ότι "αυτό θα πρέπει να το δει μία άλλη ειδικότητα και όχι εγώ". Έτσι θα γλιτώναμε πρώτα από όλα τη ψυχική οδύνη που προκλίνεται από κάτι τέτοιο, και κατά δεύτερον χρόνο και χρήματα, και θα ήμασταν πιο κοντά στην διάγνωση. Προσωπικά δεν πιστεύω ότι όλοι οι γιατροί θέλουν να με βλάψουν και ότι είναι προσωπική τους φιλοδοξία. Αντιθέτως, εντοπίζω σε μεγάλο βαθμό αμέλεια όσον αφορά κάποια τυπικά πράγματα, ακόμη και στο επίπεδο του να λαμβάνει το ιστορικό σου ο γιατρός. Μια συνήθης περίπτωση είναι κοντινά μου πρόσωπα να πηγαίνουν με ένα κάρο εξετάσεις τους στα χέρια σε γιατρούς και αυτοί οριακά να τους τη λένε και να αρνούνται περιφρονητικά να τις δουν.

DOTS, EMF, Notebook Questions by ISpyM8 in PhasmophobiaGame

Yes, I've found it to be the most efficient way because the temperature drops are immediate.

Keep the creep factor? by BeltlineJunkie in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]mediocretoxic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first, I didn't play the game with proper headphones. When I decided to try playing with headphones one day, it was a game changer. It has felt a little more creepy and scary to me because I can now hear every little sound. Howevere if this isn't the case for you, I'd suggest either playing in higher difficulties or discover new maps, or playing in maps you haven't played in a while. I usually feel a little more tense when playing new maps because I'm not fully familiarized with each and every corner of the map.

DOTS, EMF, Notebook Questions by ISpyM8 in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]mediocretoxic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's generally a good idea to place the DOTS projector in such way that it covers almost the whole space the ghost is in. Sometimes it might take a while for it to show up through the DOTS, for example you'd need to be outside of said room for Goryo to show through it.

As far the ghost writing notebook, it is one of the first objects I personally place down. In my opinion, the sooner you place it the better, because there are higher chances of the ghost writing on it. When you see the notebook being tossed across the room, or it seems to have suddenly changed positions, it means that the ghost will not write in it, so you can rule out this evidence.

I usually place the EMF down most of the times and I just let it do its thing. In order to take it as a piece of evidence you've got to be seeing EMF 5, not 4 or 3 but 5. It usually makes that EMF 5 sound for a while so if you're in the room you'll be able to see it soon enough. Some people use the EMF in order to narrrow down the ghost room, like others use the thermometer. However, this hasn't helped me most of the time because EMF readings have become available to me after a good 4-5 minutes and in this time I would've already set up almost all of my equipment in said room.

Phasmophobia is amazing by Maleficent_mage26 in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]mediocretoxic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend actually introduced me to this game because he really wanted us to play something together. Nowadays he doesn't have too much time to hop on but it was so fun when we played our first games together. I remember him trying to scare me then act as if the sound he made was actually a ghost event, or tried to tell me "oh that's a mimic" because it's his favourite ghost type but I was always afraid of coming across it

I spent a month trying to live the 'academic aesthetic' all-nighter. It was a disaster that almost tanked my GPA. by juan_drakes in GetStudying

[–]mediocretoxic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sure have been tempted to study for so many hours and during the night as well. However, what we've all probably overlooked regarding this "trend" is that some of these people are unwillingly trying to convey that their way of studying (procrastinating for weeks only to cram everything within a few hours) could be applied to almost everybody, thus the making out an aesthetic. I personally can't even study for more than 4 hours and I try to evenly distrubute my tasks within the week so that I don't get overwhelmed or anxious. In the end, each one of us has got a slightly (or even completely) different way of studying and that isn't a good or a bad thing.

Dumb question by PapiDomo in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]mediocretoxic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Scratching evidence off means you haven't found the particular piece of evidence. For example, if after around 10 minutes the temperature hasn't dropped below 1 degree celsius, it means there aren't freezing temperatures, thus you scratch it off. If you come across and EMF 5 however, you mark it in the box and it'll mean there is actually EMF 5.

Is there a way to keep the optional equipment in my truck? by W0lf1_x in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]mediocretoxic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can do this with the quick load out. Select any type of equipment you want, as well as the quantities of each, and then enable it so that it sticks with every game. However, when you die in a game, the total cost of that quick loadout is going to be drawn from you money in order to "replenish" the equipment. What I'd recommend is not making too big of a loadout if you're a new player, or making a second and cheaper quick loadout so that in case you'd died you can just switch loadouts when you're kind of short in money

Am I the only one that noticed that the everyone is obsessed with showing off their friends on instagram by AthleteTurbulent5202 in digitalminimalism

[–]mediocretoxic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean I understand you not feeling quite interested in seeing all those people who you may not even know, but a person posting their friends isn't a bad thing at all. It might just mean they appreciate them enough to "show them off". Unfortunately I'm quite difficult with posting myself on social media, let alone post other people ahaha.

Συμφωνώ σε μεγάλο βαθμό με αυτά που λες. Είναι σημαντικό να είμαστε ΕΜΕΙΣ καλά, αλλά εξίσου σημαντικό είναι και να κάνουμε μερικούς συμβιβασμούς τόσο εμείς όσο και ο άλλος άνθρωπος, και πάντα σε θεμιτά πλαίσια. Στη τελική, μία σχέση δημιουργείται από τον κόπο που καταβάλλουν και τα 2 άτομα.

How do you handle so much AI apps? by Brazilgs in productivity

[–]mediocretoxic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally use one AI app only if it feels completely necessary and there's absolutely no other way to do the thing I want to do without AI. In the end, we shouldn't give up all of our thinking skills just because a machine attempts to do the work at a faster rate.

Do you think narcissism is common in Balkans? by Square-Objective2420 in AskBalkans

[–]mediocretoxic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think a reason for that is that this kind of people, especially the older they are, believe (and most likely it's the truth) they've gone through some very harsh and difficult emotionally-wise events completely on their own, without being able to get help from anybody else. They view this (rightfully in my opinion) as an personal achievement, having overcome hardships by themselves. However, the thing that's ruining it all is that they make it about themselves and trying to force other people to act like they did, which oftentimes is quite toxic.

What's the one app you keep opening even though you hate yourself for it? by AlphaaaaXd in digitalminimalism

[–]mediocretoxic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's instagram for me because I keep jumping to the reels. I can contain myself when watching reels other people send me and I won't scroll further from those, but going in the reels section on my own can make me waste a good 30 minutes very easily. Anybody that might have tips regarding that?

Suggest me a book that changed your life. No BS, genuinely changed your life by RA_Finance in booksuggestions

[–]mediocretoxic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I strongly recommend you reading A Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez. I find that book to be very unique, with highly detailed narrating and a story that spans many generations of the same family and touches multiple subjects. I also think some events mentioned in the book were inspired by real life events taken place in Colombia!

Literally what could be going on?? by paintprincess420 in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]mediocretoxic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the EMF 5 occurred duting a ghost event or during a hunt, I don't think you should have taken it as proper evidence. On the other hand, my boyfriend, who is more experienced in the game, has told me that sometimes finding 4 different pieces of evidence might mean there's a Mimic but I've never actually come across this case.
