Bonus: how did this past year’s go?
I’m sticking with 1080p. that’s my boomer opinion
The same as last year, to do something to surprise myself. This year was a close one, but a few weeks ago I managed to interview a presidential candidate, so not bad (for an engineering student)
Come up with a good idea to make money
Get back to my pre-COVID weight. Thankfully I just moved to a new place with a gym literally across the street.
I’m in a similar boat, but I want to increase my fitness, rather than bemoaning smaller.
More so than a gym, weight loss happens in the kitchen. Smaller portion sizes and healthier options. A calories deficit is the only way to lose weight. And don’t think of it as a “diet”… It’s a lifestyle change.
Forty pounds and counting. Good luck!
Yea I know. I went from >400lbs to 195; but then COVID. I swear to god I can do week long fasts and barely lose weight, I really need some kind of sustained cardio exercise on a regular basis. Just give me an elliptical and some time.
Same as every year since 2017: Stand up to racism whenever I see it.
How’d it go? There’s a lot of racism out there, but I think I did okay.
Who downvotes this without an explanation? Even if you think that racism is good, it’s somebody else’s resolution, so…?
I have to assume they thought I could’ve done better.
Sell all my vehicles. I’m tired of computers and subscriptions just for a little comfort.
Restomod my old car in the garage and keep it all analog. No Bluetooth, no internet connectivity, no fucking automatic transmission.
I want to drive my car and feel connected again.
My new year’s resolution is to prepare a new year’s resolution for next year.
Probably 1080p, tbh, but I’d like to get at least 1440p60, just to try it out
Live a little. 4K 60 with Ray Tracing is the standard!
this is gonna be my first time really doing one ^^
i want to work on my awareness of my volume speaking and stuff, read 30 books, and work on voice training :3
Zero parking citations.
Learn how to do my hair & makeup.
Meh I already still don’t care about worrying about any of that.
Don’t use the ParkNYC app if you’re anywhere in that location. They will ticket you for not displaying a receipt on your dash.
That’s right. Hope your phone has a printer.
Oh, and appealing it does nothing. You’ll pay no matter what.
That’s outrageous. Well I live in Los Angeles and my experience is they do anything they can to trick people into paying more or paying a fine even if they’re parked legally. Two examples:
The parking meters are broken, shitty, screen unreadable, or if it does work, it takes so long to approve your card or tap that it tricks you into swiping/tapping multiple times and by the time it’s approved you see you paid for your parking spot two or three times the time amount you intended. And there’s no option for canceling & starting over.
Yesterday I was the first one to park along a particular curb where the parking meters are not perfectly aligned with the parking spots. The nearest meter to my vehicle appeared to be in the next spot forward but I surveyed the area carefully and was confident that was indeed my parking meter so I paid it up. A couple hours later a car had parked in front of me thinking that his spot was paid for. Hope he got a ticket LOL
Propose to my gf.
I too choose this guy’s gf.
Congrats! 🎉
Finish the Wild Beyond the Witchlight campaign that I’ve been running for my friends but had to put on a 6 month hiatus as I’m still getting over a break up.
Last year’s resolution was to run 10 sessions of DnD and I at least doubled it.
Exercise. Because being a sedentary 40 year old man is catching up to me.
lol past me is nothing but trouble I don’t owe them anything
New years’ resolutions don’t really work for 2 reasons:
- You’re in survival mode so a year-long project is impossible to keep up, you’re living from one day to the next or paycheque-to-paycheque.
Or,
- You’re doing well enough to think of long time horizons. Likely then you have many medium- to long-term goals on the go, and you don’t have to start them in the new year.
I find myself luckily in the latter case. I’ll take the new year as a chance to evaluate where I am with my goals and adjust priorities, if needed.
