I recently joined my township's planning commission. It was suspiciously easy to join. Anyway, learning about city planning and ordinances is really fascinating. I highly recommend people get involved with their local boards and commissions.
I was a library trustee for 9 years; I learned a lot about the town and how it works. Neat stuff!
Nobody cares you absolutely fat fuck
Is there a joke here that I'm missing?
No they're just attempting to troll, rather poorly they need to up their game I might add
Oh, OK
Nope, that is just a plain old style troll people are engaging with and downvoting (what he wants) instead blocking and ignoring.
I just started baking bread, with the goal of making healthy sourdough bread, pizza, and other baked goods.
I got myself a breadmaker for that same reason, and I'm kind of lazy when it comes to baking. I love the fact that all I have to do is toss the ingredients in, and 3 hours later I have nice fresh warm bread that cost next to nothing to make.
You don't have to knead it? Whenever I try to make bread I find I'm kneading forever and it sticks to everything and I get flour all over then it turns out really dense.
Nope. Just throw the ingredients into the machine and turn it on. my machine won't do anything for the first few minutes then it'll start doing it's thing. In about an hour and 20 minutes later it'll beep to let you know to add nuts/raisins etc (If you so desire) and after that it'll start the actual baking process.
From the time it's turned on it takes 3 hours and ten minutes before it's finished. at that point you can either pop the loaf out or it'll go into 'warming mode" and just sit there and keep itself warm.
I can also do bagels and pizza dough for it, which works well. Saves a lot of the effort of beating up the dough.
Ah! That's my problem, I wasn't using a machine! Just doing it by hand. Maybe I'll pick one up.
They are definitely worth it in my opinion. I picked mine up used from a thrift store for something like $20 just to give it a shot, and I'm hooked. I've have been using it regularly for the last 4 years now.
A little late but just to add to my other reply, most breadmakers have a dough setting that allows you to toss your ingredients in and it'll just make the dough for you. Then you can take the dough and bake it the rest of the way the old fashioned way. (It's the way I make bagels and pizza dough)
I highly recommend one just for the ease of use. There's lots of good recipes online. One tip is if your machine seems to struggle a bit when it's kneading, just add a bit more water/milk to the recipe to smooth it out.
There are tons of no-kneed bread recipes that are excellent. Depends on what type of bread you want to make. If you're looking to make rustic type boules the no-need recipes work great. For other types of bread that require kneeling, a stand mixer is invaluable.
And it makes the house smell so nice too.
Hope you burn yourself retard
You don't seem to be a very nice person...
Your daughter sucks my cock
Yeah, you need to put a bit more effort into that trolling of yours.
Don't engage just report, block, then move on
In hindsight I should have done.
Yeah a lot of the times it's the best thing for yourself and others, the amount of people who behave like that in comment sections is way too high
Another braindead turd ( ° ͜ʖ͡°)╭∩╮
I rape your dead grandpa retard
lol?
╭∩╮（︶︿︶）╭∩╮
Nice pic of your mum
get off 4chan do adding homework
My wife bakes, reads, and does pilates.
I'm lazy so I play video games and drink. Though I've reduced the booze intake and tried reading at least 1 book every 8 weeks. I'm also trying to be more consistent at the gym 2-3x per week instead of 2-3 times per month which inadvertently became the norm the past few years.
We both like board games, puzzles, and a good binge of a show we both like. Also sex.
Kinda books you like? I might have some epubs for ya.
I generally stick to fantasy and historical fiction. Just read Fire and Blood which I loved and I'm almost done with Prisoners of the Castle which is pretty decent, an odd chapter in WWII history akin to the Battle of Schrute Farms in the Civil War.
These days, sadly, just sit on my couch and watch fuckin TV. I’m just so beaten from work and everything that I just have no interest in much anything else.
I relate - the nights I have been motivated to do something else after work make me wonder if I'm actually beat, or just addicted to TV (Youtube for me). Always feel better and sleep better when I don't search mindlessly for something to entertain me while snacking nonstop. Even video games make me feel more fulfilled but I'm still struggling to watch less youtube. About to eat breakfast and of course I wanna watch a video while I do lol
I have a stupid amount of hobbies, but I've been pretty depressed lately, trying to force myself off the keyboard.
Main hobbies are my camp in the swamp and gunsmithing crappy old guns.
I've got 2.5 acres of swampy mess in Florida where I've built a permanent camp. I've got 2 camping spots for friends and a 3rd that's useable but not as fancy. Trying to figure a budget cabin that's within my skillset. That's a tough one. Building a playground for my kids, way harder than I thought. Stuff like that.
Stopped buying crappy guns, far too many in the works, incomplete. For example, I got a really neat Sears and Roebuck brand .22 I'm working on. Super common in the 50-60s, but I don't think there's anything like it now (tube fed!). My favs are the single-shot shotguns from the 30s-60s, but how many can a man want?!
how many can a man want?!
I am confident that neither science nor maths has yet found a limit.
Make ceramics. It's really meditative. Time passes so quickly as I focus on the spinning clay on the wheel.
I have been working on a minecraft 1.12 mod pack that does the following:
*Fleshes out the nether and end with new structures, mobs, terrain blocks and biomes
*Adds new overworld biomes and revamps existing ones with new structures, stone types, more mossy versions of blocks like wood, makes villages look better and more fleshed out
*new ores, gems, metals and their associated tools, weapons and armor. Native metal ores have been added to the ocean floor and obsidian versions of them that drop nuggets like lapis does which results in higher yields as fortune levels increase
*The elytra can now be used to access sky island dimensions. Flying 4,000 blocks up brings you to a floating island version of the overworld (mostly but not entirely) and flying back down leads to the overworld. Continuing to fly ~500 blocks farther up brings you to the moon's equivalent of sky islands which flying downward brings you to the moon. These floating island dimensions form a chain that eventually leads back to the overworld's sky islands and back home. Classic scifi versions of Venus and Mars as well as moons like Io, Europa and Enceledus have been added in this way. The intervening space is breathable as it is based on a DnD campaign I was a part of where hot air balloons were used to move between planets and moons in the campaign.
*Temparary dimensions that feature blocks from the overworld, end, nether and others have been added that regenerate with unique seeds every time they are re-entered by the player. This allows new terrain to generate and explore while solving server scarcity issues caused by limited map sizes.
*Expands on magic mechanics with new potions, potion storage, new enchantments, spell tomes, disenchanting, an alchemy mechanic based on the old infinobsidian bug, "complex" potions and enchantment books that have a desireable enchantment one level above what can normally be obtained combined with a curse. eg. Fortune 4 + Curse of Vanishing, or in the case of potions the turtlemaster potion and its opposite
*Ovens smelt two ingredients at once to make new drinks, foods and alloys. I am working on adding a grill block that allows up to 9 ingredients be smelted like the furnace equivalent of a crafting table
*New crops, foods, salt, spices, jerky, salted fish, fugu (edible pufferfish sold by fisherman villagers)
*New tools like hammers which break blocks in a 3x3 pattern and can break resource blocks into the items used to craft tgem eg. sandstone back into sand. Chisels are used to carve a texture pattern into supported blocks if the relevant template is held in the player's off hand. i.e stone block -> stone bricks. These templates are produced by right clicking blocks with that texture with carbon paper.
*Villager trading has been revamped with rarely used trades removed, prices rebalanced, new trades added and new careers/professions
*New armor eg. Gold chainmail, bone, bronze, turtle shells, shulker shell helmets etc. New shields, scythes, weapons with bone hilts/handles, explosive arrows, torch arrows, underwater arrows, arrows that travel in a straight line, training arrows that deal no damage
*Clothing accessories like necklaces, bracelets and other cosmetics that can be worn over clothig, suits and dresses, hats, shoes etc.
*Fruit tree leaf blocks flower and ripen to display fruit and nuts that can be picked. The rate that harvests can happen is rebalanced to be the same as obtaining apples from oak trees in vanilla. i.e no more needing to cut down trees to get apples but theyre just as hard to get hold of. Oak trees now grow acorns and do not drop apples, acorns must be smelted to be eaten. Apple trees like tgeir IRL counterparts very rarely produce new trees from saplings that match their parent. i.e they do not grow true to seed which means that 99% of the apple trees you plant are going to effectively be crabapples. The fraction of a percent that arent come in several varieties i.e red, yellow, green, and and orange, pink, white, purple. Which means its a lot harder to actually "breed" apple trees but once you do, you can "store" a lot of apples in the leaves of these trees as they mature over time. i.e plant and forget
*The pack is fully documented in game. i.e every mechanic and recipe can be discovered without needing out of game resources like wikis (although I will still make one) In game lore can be found in books that can be traded for with librarians or found in structures that spawn in the world.
Jeez! I‘m impressed. How long are you working on that already?
I‘m a little sad its not for the open source clone since minecraft is on a bad path imo but we cant change that now.
Still, impressive feat.
Its been 5 years...
The reason why it was built on 1.12 was because it had the most mods that could do what I wanted and it was before the point where I thought minecraft went a bit off the rails.
Hats off to you! Thats what I call dedication.
Jesus that's a long feature list! Very cool but it must be taking forever, are you a developer for work or is it just a hobby?
Oh yeah also is this just something for you, that you wanted to play with friends, or are you building it for a community server/larger group?
This is just a hobby. I started it because I wanted to add things that I wanted but it is meant to be played by other people too. Its just taking a while (5 years) because I have rewritten and redesigned it more than once and dont work on it constantly. Its something I work on, take a break, do other things and come back to.
I work in data centres, so fuck all windows or outside time during the week. Even on days I get to work from home, I'm chained to the computer.
Evenings are gaming or watching TV with my wife. Weekends are projects on my house, yard or car, if the weather lets me. Otherwise, I'm tinkering with tools, electronics, and/or home automation.
Longer bouts of time off are spent 4WDing and camping or caravanning. I go away 4WDing with mates at least annually, but we also have an off-road caravan, so I like to take my wife and daughter to new places.
About to head off for four nights off-roading in one of my favourite parts of the state I Iive in: the Victorian High Country. Later this year, we're taking a three week trip to Uluru and back. Proper Aussie Outback trip.
Wow, sounds pretty nice mate!
Yeah, we're pretty lucky here in Australia. I think many countries are lucky like this - people just need to be willing to explore what they already have.
Mostly video games, but some other stuff here and there. A long while ago, I worked my way up to become a chef until I had a boss who sucked to the point that I left the entire industry. After a couple of years, I came to enjoy cooking at home again, so that's become a sort of functional hobby. I also used to be crazy about music, but I stopped having the time, energy, and access I used to so that really slipped away. But I just cleaned up my space and moved things around to make it easier for me to be motivated to pick up a guitar, so I'll do that once I have more than 12 hours off work lol. My wife and I paint together once in a while too. Of course, also movies, TV, and YouTube videos, but I'm trying to reduce passive entertainment a bit. That stuff kinda just makes me existentially conscious of the fact that my time here is limited and I'm pissing it away on shit I'm not even really gonna remember in 24 hours. I'd rather create, even if it's not something I'm interested in sharing.
Work on my homelab, I enjoy it :)
long for more freetime.
Work on the Jellyfin Roku client, read, listen to music, play guitar, skateboard.
I've gotten back into making minis lately. I don't play AoS or 40k but I like kit bashing and painting. It can be a bit of an obsession for me so I end up spending months making just a handful of minis. No idea how long it would take me to build an army if I did play
Watching other people program while I procrastinate programming :-|
Read, calligraphy, run, snowboard/split board, journal. I wish I could play videogames, but I feel too guilty, I'm trying to get away from YouTube as it's a black hole for free time.
Also trying to use less Youtube. I have quite a few hobbies and projects but Youtube sucks up at least a couple hours of my day. Didn't realize how addicted I was until I tried to use it less lol. Fortunately my recommended page has been way off lately
I'm rebooting a massive space video game that was abandoned a few years ago. It's way too much game for me but whatever, I'll level up and then it won't be any more.
Which game?
Click the big space picture just below the text on my ugly site to go to the steam page. A little further down is a sign up form for the newsletter.
Wow, good luck with that. NGL that game looks like it could have been awesome.
Yeah, in it's current iteration, it just exudes potential. I couldn't just let it die so I started digging for information and ended up speaking with the developer whom noone had heard from in 5 years. Original source code is lost, unfortunately. So I'm starting from scratch.
Program, browse Lemmy or 4chan, research new interesting stuff, learn new stuff, watch anime or read manga and play games.
Lifting weights, scuba diving, martial arts, 3d printing, mini painting, fingerdrums, building and flying drones, planning for various trips, make presentations and present them at conferences, play videogames and TTRPG (or DM them), go on random adventures and make things.
Sculpt. Mixed media but mostly antler/bone, Copper and clay.
Reading, hiking, film & TV, conservation volunteering
Masturbate
I'm doing it right now.
Cross stitch. I never would have guessed how much I would enjoy it, but ever since I did my first pattern around a year ago I've been hooked lol
This
Fly fish our local rivers year round. When the rivers are blown out by rain or locked up with ice I tie flies. Before taking up fishing I backpacked quite a bit plus the occasional paddle trip.
Research a bunch of topics and testing new tech/software 🕵️♂️👨🔧
jerk off my dingus
I’m a software engineer, so I spend the majority of my day inside. I tend to do more outdoorsy type stuff when off work or on weekends like 4-wheeling, snowmobiling, hunting/fishing, photography, exploring, etc. When I am indoors, I tend to play video games, sometimes learn new programming tech, and more recently reading.
Tons of odd little things too, but that’s a good majority of what I tend to do.
Eat pizza with pepsicola and fap to my waifu reading hentai
How’s that working out for ya?
More copium for me
Teaching programming for kids, 3D printing, photography, playing the saxophone, gaming (pretty much exclusively coop), playing board games.
If I could afford a 3D printer I would definitely use it a bunch for personal projects
Getting a used mid-range printer is quite affordable. Or try looking for your local maker space, so you don't have to buy your own. It's never been easier to get into 3D printing than today.
Also, it's quite easy to sell custom 3D prints. Thus it's not that hard to cover the cost of materials (or even the printer itself).
Gaming, programming, gamedev, boardgames, drinking beer, producing music, running, watching F1, and more. Problem is that I often lack the time and energy for the more productive hobbies. At least I got myself to run a fairly consistent 2 days a week. I don't really understand how people can be bored, there's so much to do.
Build stuff. Either physical things like legos, puzzles, etc, or software.
I'm basic. I listen to music, watch videos, and play video games. One of the only non-basic things I do is go on Fridays to a Japanese club at my college since I don't have classes Friday.
Prep for tabletop RPGs - Sometimes thats making maps, other times designing vignettes and encounters, and when I'm feeling a need to recharge the ol' fiction engine, experiencing thematically similar media to just wholesale steal ideas from.
So for me it's similar to this except I really enjoy making missions for a DCS World group (combat flight sim) I play with. Not only that but I make PowerPoints and briefings. So fun to nerd out on when I have time to make it.
I like to think about what to do when I finally move to Belgium.
Free time?
Drink wine
just picked up embroidery and knitting, been lots of fun making things for myself and i know what my friends are getting for next christmas lol
Study Bitcoin.
Hope you get broke turd (͡•_ ͡• )
HFSP
I usually beat black people (homeless or just niggas)
This guy is such a joke of a troll. There is more to trolling than being mean and using the N word.
Troll lemmy autists
Wow I literally couldn't imagine a sadder life
Imagine thinking that poster is cool
Suck my dick and die fucking NIGGA
Tell me when you graduate from therapy! Otherwise there's someone who will wake up and realize they're missing their cunt
You’re looking at it, buddy.
I'm not your buddy, pal!
I’m not your pal, friend!
I'm not your friend, guy!
I'm not your guy, mate!

Also trying to use less Youtube. I have quite a few hobbies and projects but Youtube sucks up at least a couple hours of my day. Didn't realize how addicted I was until I tried to use it less lol. Fortunately my recommended page has been way off lately
I'm rebooting a massive space video game that was abandoned a few years ago. It's way too much game for me but whatever, I'll level up and then it won't be any more.
Which game?

Rogue System
Wow, good luck with that. NGL that game looks like it could have been awesome.
Yeah, in it's current iteration, it just exudes potential. I couldn't just let it die so I started digging for information and ended up speaking with the developer whom noone had heard from in 5 years. Original source code is lost, unfortunately. So I'm starting from scratch.
Program, browse Lemmy or 4chan, research new interesting stuff, learn new stuff, watch anime or read manga and play games.
Lifting weights, scuba diving, martial arts, 3d printing, mini painting, fingerdrums, building and flying drones, planning for various trips, make presentations and present them at conferences, play videogames and TTRPG (or DM them), go on random adventures and make things.
Sculpt. Mixed media but mostly antler/bone, Copper and clay.
Reading, hiking, film & TV, conservation volunteering
Masturbate
I'm doing it right now.
Cross stitch. I never would have guessed how much I would enjoy it, but ever since I did my first pattern around a year ago I've been hooked lol
This
Fly fish our local rivers year round. When the rivers are blown out by rain or locked up with ice I tie flies. Before taking up fishing I backpacked quite a bit plus the occasional paddle trip.
Research a bunch of topics and testing new tech/software 🕵️♂️👨🔧
jerk off my dingus
I’m a software engineer, so I spend the majority of my day inside. I tend to do more outdoorsy type stuff when off work or on weekends like 4-wheeling, snowmobiling, hunting/fishing, photography, exploring, etc. When I am indoors, I tend to play video games, sometimes learn new programming tech, and more recently reading.
Tons of odd little things too, but that’s a good majority of what I tend to do.
Eat pizza with pepsicola and fap to my waifu reading hentai
How’s that working out for ya?
More copium for me
Teaching programming for kids, 3D printing, photography, playing the saxophone, gaming (pretty much exclusively coop), playing board games.
If I could afford a 3D printer I would definitely use it a bunch for personal projects
Getting a used mid-range printer is quite affordable. Or try looking for your local maker space, so you don't have to buy your own. It's never been easier to get into 3D printing than today.
Also, it's quite easy to sell custom 3D prints. Thus it's not that hard to cover the cost of materials (or even the printer itself).
Gaming, programming, gamedev, boardgames, drinking beer, producing music, running, watching F1, and more. Problem is that I often lack the time and energy for the more productive hobbies. At least I got myself to run a fairly consistent 2 days a week. I don't really understand how people can be bored, there's so much to do.
Build stuff. Either physical things like legos, puzzles, etc, or software.
I'm basic. I listen to music, watch videos, and play video games. One of the only non-basic things I do is go on Fridays to a Japanese club at my college since I don't have classes Friday.
Prep for tabletop RPGs - Sometimes thats making maps, other times designing vignettes and encounters, and when I'm feeling a need to recharge the ol' fiction engine, experiencing thematically similar media to just wholesale steal ideas from.
So for me it's similar to this except I really enjoy making missions for a DCS World group (combat flight sim) I play with. Not only that but I make PowerPoints and briefings. So fun to nerd out on when I have time to make it.
I like to think about what to do when I finally move to Belgium.
Free time?
Drink wine
just picked up embroidery and knitting, been lots of fun making things for myself and i know what my friends are getting for next christmas lol
Study Bitcoin.
Hope you get broke turd (͡•_ ͡• )
HFSP
I usually beat black people (homeless or just niggas)
This guy is such a joke of a troll. There is more to trolling than being mean and using the N word.
Troll lemmy autists
Wow I literally couldn't imagine a sadder life
Imagine thinking that poster is cool
Suck my dick and die fucking NIGGA
Tell me when you graduate from therapy! Otherwise there's someone who will wake up and realize they're missing their cunt
