I like to putter. Find little projects to do like organizing the junk drawer, rearrange the furniture, reorganize the pantry or kitchen. Little stuff like that.
Play Factorio. Realize it has become a full time job. ??? Profit!
Complete it.
Then complete the K2 mod.
Then play the space exploration mod
Then the new expansion will be out.
That’s how my YEAR is going. SE takes forever.
Yep, but you missed a step. Get all achievements. Also, Play through K2 + SE. Also, Seablock.
I have gotten the achievements, but II haven’t “beaten” SE or K2 + SE, nor have I beaten Seablock.
I have thousands of hours in the game. I am a married guy with many kids. Pls send help.
Sorry, yeah I went from k2 to k2se. It’s tough. Lots of waiting around for resources really, with no way to expand without them.
I think this is where I draw the line, it’s a bit too grindy for my liking. K2 was a perfect amount of ‘extra’. I love the thought of se but having to make a new base for every resource is getting tiring even when I’ve blueprinted half of it in advance. Also a married man with a 1yr old and a business to run. 3 hours sleep is my life.
Yeah, it is super grindy!
Games. Both video and board games. There’s always someone playing something in this house.
Cooking. Plan a meal and take a day to make it. Like last night I took a chicken out of the freezer. In the morning I cooked the stuffing and choppped the veggies. In the afternoon I stuffed it. Then I put it in the oven a couple hours later and I’m about to eat it soon
How do you get bored at home?
I end up doing chores.
Code, play computer games, read, browse Lemmy.
What is this boredom of which you speak?
Printing and painting minis and other things
Generally I try to have a creative, hands-on project on the go. Lately that’s been rebuilding a guitar, but it could be designing something on the computer.
Otherwise; playing guitar, gardening, practice putting (disc golf). So I guess hobbies.
Yeah I like making costumes. It’s creative, hands-on, it gets me away from a screen (3D modeling aside), and it still intersects with my nerdy interests like video games or sci-fi and fantasy worlds.
And as a bonus, I get to wear it to nerdy costume parties when it’s done!
Listen to audio books, plays video games, socialize with friends on discord, work on computer projects, spend time with pets.
Build and paint models. Play with the dog. Go for a walk. Tend the garden. Clean the car. Read a book. Sleep.
Good suggestions here. If nothing seems to interest you, you might be experiencing anhedonia, inability to experience pleasure. Often goes with depression.
Read. I honestly don’t think life would be as enjoyable if books didn’t exist. And thanks to libraries, you can read them for free.
Unlike movies/TV/games, they’re entirely portable without loss of quality, so you can take a book with you on a walk, to the pub, to the coffee shop etc.
