I wanted to play games today. simple mission. i was playing for two hours and somehow i ended up writing a webapp to help me with my taxes based on data from my firefly-iii server 🤔

why can't i sit down and just do nothing for a day 😅

decided to make it open source if anyone's interested.

I’m the opposite! If I’m gaming programming or productivity in general doesn’t mean shit to me lol. If I could get paid to play games I would take it

@mysth that's becoming a problem for me, there's practically nothing else I like to do, nothing fun, so I just try to work on personal projects. I play some CS:GO and watch some videos, maybe ride my bike for a while, but nothing gives me joy for more than an hour or two. This makes me just work instead of doing other stuff, which kinda burns me out and has made me stop liking programming, or at least I don't have the same enthusiasm I used to. So in short, nothing is fun anymore, everything's boring and I just like sleeping because then I don't have to do anything and I don't feel bored.

@neeno
If nothing you do is fun, literally doing nothing might work instead.
Try meditating, lying in the bed, watching stars or clouds, or staring at goats for some hours...
If that is too boring - try looking at art, listening to classical music or reading dime novels instead.

@Oktokolo thanks for the advice! I'll try to do some of those. Actually, going to a quiet place with a nice view and no one to bother me and spending a few hours just looking at the view and the sky seems like a pretty nice idea, I might do that.

Be productive. Games will not bring you cash unless your a pro gamer

If programming involves ripping intestines out of demons or crushing their skulls with a heavy stomp it would be much more rewarding but that doesn’t profit lol. Drinking and gaming is the way to live! Ah i love alcohol especially when it’s in me

@d-fanelli As an Arch user running most of my software fresh off git, killing daemons is a regular daily chore.
