I found that picking something really small and succeeding helps motivate me to succeed at other things I want to accomplish.

Thank you so much.

I am completely unaware of a double post, so unsure how that happened.

Actually really helpful. Thank you. I am typically really good with self control. However, in this case I have proven to have none.

Thanks for taking the time.

Love this!

62 year old guy.

I was given a bear when I was born. His name is Growl. I have never once been ashamed of him or hidden him away.

Much more recently (last 10 or 15 years) I was gifted a Build-a-bear Chewbacca. I will never hide him away either.

This is how my wife operates too.

Fantastic for that purpose.

I’m all about Signal’s Note to Self.

My wife’s standards are different than, mine, but I’m reasonably neat and tidy.

Thank you so much.

Thank you so much!

Almost 40 pounds since the beginning of March.

Changed my diet, went harder on the workouts.

330 -> 291 as of Monday.

We are all in on Peloton. I bought the bike just before Covid. Then bought my wife a Tread a year later. Then she bought me a row a couple of Christmases ago.

They definitely are proud of their product. It was a huge change for me. I’d been a back pocket bifold or trifold guy my entire life, and I just got to the point I hated it. Had to remove it from my pocket if I was driving or riding my motorcycle or sitting for any extended period of time. It collected crap I had no need to collect, etc.

Bought my Ridge, my wife laughed and said"that elastic will never last". I’m still on my first elastic!

I bought them for two of my three sons who also love theirs.

All that said, I’ve looked a couple of times at ones like you shared, and think they would work great also.

Ridge. It’s minimalist. I’ve had mine for eight years and I love it.

I started looking at Symfonium some time ago, but something killed my interest. Maybe it’s time to revisit it.

The tidal thing didn’t bother me, as my music collection is relatively large. But yeah PlexAmp is truly an extraordinary bit of software.

This doesn’t really affect my household. My wife, my daughter, and I all have lifetime PlexPasses.

That said, this level of enshitification has me wishing there were options (yes I know about Emby and Jellyfin and I’ve investigated both more than once) but they have me ensnared by PlexAmp and Sonos integration. I’ve been around since before anyone had even seen the letters MP3 strung together, and I have never had a music player as capable as PlexAmp.

Political affiliation has nothing to do with hate. We as humans are capable of hate no matter our beliefs.

That said the converse is also true.
