I love self check out, it's great when you're only getting a few items. When I shop for more than that there's the handheld scanners, which are also great

    Just finished a LAN party. I'm the chairman of the nonprofit that arranges it. Everything went smooth. So smooth I had bad anxiety the day before we started lol. The aula we rented is cleaned, and the extra chairs and tables we rented have been picked up.

    Before the pandemic we used to have close to a 1000 guests. But unfortunately big LAN partys are dying, so this year we were only around 70.

    I think we'll keep a smaller size, but aiming for a bit more than 100 next year. Because at this size, it's still really fun without all the extra stress and workload that comes from arranging a really big party

    I've come to the realisation that it's always going be a struggle to pick it up after a missed day, and that's fine. Sometimes you miss. The important part is that you're doing something. I've gone to the gym on and off for several years now, my longest streak was five months, with twice a week. Sometimes I don't go for two weeks, sometimes I just do it once, or do it twice and don't put that much effort in, and that's FINE! Remember that. It's okay to miss a day, even though it ruins a "streak". Just pick it up again. Easier said than done, I know, but letting yourself fail, and not feeling all the worlds dread and failure because you didn't go to the gym today is kind of nice!

    Dino got a tumor in the stomach, inoperable. He got the shot last Sunday, it was for the best. Rather than him starving to death. He was 11 years old, and lived a good life with us. He came to us from a household with many cats, at the ripe age of four. He was bullied by the other cats. He seemed to be really happy with just our company. We managed to get him to loose a lot of weight as well, he couldn't wash his behind properly when we got him. He loved his plastic bag, and chilling in the shade at the balcony. I'll always remember my annoying orange chunker

     

    What the title says. Currently got a commuter style bicycle with "quick release" axles. Can I switch to Thruaxle style somehow? Seems like you can use nicer bearings and stuff with those. And I really would like even better "roll" when commuting

    Read something about the frame needing to be different for thruaxle, but I'm getting conflicting information from the internet and friends that ride racer bicycles😃

    Edit: I've got hydraulic disc brakes if that matters
