Medication definitely helps as other has said. But for me when I need something extra to get through break it up and take a break in the middle

And this is what works for me, your mileage may vary

For example if I’m writing a paper first I’ll first make an outline, intro, methods, conclusion, etc. Then I just have to fill in my bullet points with general ideas. When I’m done with that I start writing intro then take a break

Another thing is what take others 3 hours to do will take me the whole day so whenever I’m at my halfway point or I’m spinning my wheels I’m the mud (which is when I’m getting no work done with lots of thoughts or zoning out) I take my break but I tell myself “I’m doing good I deserve a break, I’m doing good I can’t burnout, I looked at my calendar I’m on track. I always give myself those reassuring pep talks because I know I can’t work fast it’s just who I am

Then I take a half hour break either playing games or walking the dogs or grabbing a snack. Something I’ve noticed is different activities will help differently. For example if I’m zoning out lll walk the dogs to get back into it. If I’m still “thinking” about the paper but finding it hard to bring myself to type it out I’ll play a game

Hope this helps, it’s really about finding what works for you and which strategies work when

Oh yeah the base felt really true on that one arena trying to hold your vertical area.

In Atlantis or the underwater map it felt like a “base” slowly rotated around the map for a really fun dynamic as well as that one industrial and lava maps

But yeah my original point was it feels like serveral good ideas (minus the lack of portals) mashed together in one hodge podge

Yeah you’ve just summed up what I’ve been struggling to put into words it just feels off

Ngl if it wasn’t splitgate and remove the portals I think it could have been a good f2p shooter that’s a little bit of arena.

I was never good at portaling in 1 but it was fun, during the closed betas it felt like a way to shave off a couple seconds running instead of using it to flank or get wierd angles

Also yeah it felt very… sterile idk… like it was made for esports both in lore (which isn’t bad) and irl

So this is a little off topic but is SG2 any good?

I was in love with splitgate 1 at launch then stopped kinda played off and on during the last season and put down the game after they announced they’d stopped. I played some of the closed betas and stuff just felt off, 1 felt like maps were designed with portals in mind offering sight lines and some risky areas if you were gonna shoot thru portals, but 2 felt like they made a pretty cross between a hero/ability plus arena shooter then slapped portals on it, and it just didn’t feel like splitgate to me.

Ah yeah I just couldn’t remember what he did in duos

But yeah I love how in solo he’s a bit of everything and actually does it instantly, emptying the filters while still firing and refilling ship ammo

I do like how in duos who does that little bit extra so whoever’s on guns isn’t running back and forth fulfilling both engineering and combat duties

Do wish buddy had finer control like “stay on the ship” or prioritize maintenance over combat or vice versa but hey that’s what the feedback button is for

I even like how a solo duo changes the bot, in solo legally distinct bosco will do everything while in a duo he will man the guns and I think he performs a ship repair if you have a repair kit (that might be a solo thing idk if he does it in duos)

Yea but a diver can dream

From what we’ve played yeah. It’s got a few problems here and there but that’s why it’s a beta

Yeah I was playing with my buddies and it was really fun piloting and our duct tape ship

Edit oressed send too early: but yeah we were tying to get into the closed betas with no luck

Dog fighting could be improved but I’m assuming that’s cus we only have access to the starter ship. You can dodge snipers if you ascend or descend then go in the opposite way while rolling, and the lock on if they’re infront of you if you roll and boost past them so they go over you, then boost forward the outrun then

Yeah seems nice

Depending on the explosive resist it might replace my bot armor

Here’s the blog post, haven’t read just saw your comment, ran over to the helldivers community and nabbed it

I’m actually sure I saw a translucent skin girl on one of the semi-NSFW anime communities a while ago, one of those moe ones that’s all being ran by the same guy

Yeah those 2FA guys have it the worst

I have actually have the codes in two different apps since ones behind an account so not only does the little elf in my phone have the to think of new numbers he has to make sure the numbers are synced up

Maggie doing a leap

You might be on to something here

Oh man I’m taking research class this is non exhaustive because there are gaps in the survey such as a lack of other or none and there’s a second criteria I can’t remember

I really hope my professor doesn’t have lemmy

Sit around petting the dogs

The dog in question:

On voyager half of the text is linked for me

Funny we’re all seeing different stuff from different clients

Aww look at the AmosBurton_ThatGuyo
