  • Yeah I’m not that precise. Just like when cooking, I don’t weigh anything. I use my experience to make a rough estimate.

    I’m confident that getting close enough with my measurements (maybe even overestimating a bit) because my weight loss currently tracks with what I’m expecting to lose, given what I’m eating (aimed to lose a pound per week, currently losing ~1.3lb). And close enough is good enough for me.


  • Yeah I have to enter the food I eat manually. But it’s not difficult cause all I have to do is either scan the barcode or take a picture of my meal and then quickly verify that it identified everything correctly.

    And FWIW I only log my meals when I’m trying to lose weight. Which is right now.



  • I’ve been using the always-on display of my OLED smartwatch 24/7 since 2022 (Samsung Watch 4 Classic). Burn-in is a non-issue. The watch face goes into AOD mode when you’re not looking at it; I’m not sure which burn-in protection features are being used but they work well cause I can use the same watch face for months at a time without any signs of burn-in.


  • Well I’m a statistics nerd, so I like all the sensors on the watch for sleep and health tracking. I can see exactly how long I slept in each phase, track my snoring, stress levels, muscle mass, body fat, and body water; compare calories burned to calories consumed, make sure my heart is being correctly with the ECG, check my pulse and blood pressure. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

    It’s basically like having a PipBoy IRL (it even has the light!). And to me that’s really fucking cool. Only feature missing is VATS.

    Only 30k”!?

    You’re fucking joking, right? Twenty years ago a $30,000 car was expensive and unobtainable for me, and it still is today. I can only dream of owning a car that expensive. My budget has never been above $10K, and that’s why I drive a 350Z.


  • I have a very strict notification policy on my phone. Only the most deserving apps (like text messaging) are allowed the privilege of sending me notifications. Most apps in my device are not allowed to speak to me unless spoken to first. They stay in their little spot in my app drawer, in forced deep sleep until I summon them. Then and only then are they allowed access to my attention.
