Im the same with reading speed. You could try finding a block of time you would otherwise just be on your phone so it feels less an jnvestment (e.g. before bed, riding the bus, or break at work). I use e-books so i don’t have to remember it and opening the book is as easy as social media. Finding something you WANT to read is hard too.

If you’re into fantasy then branron sanderson is great. The Way of Kings grabbed me after getiing past the prologue (bonus points for women written decently). Alternatively Name of The Wind by patrick rothfuss. If only he’d finish the trilogy…

If you’re wanting to take on a larger course and you’re interested in drawing realistic human figure then i suggest Riven Pheonix’s Invention of Man.

Each video is 15-25min. I do 1-2 daily. I watch animes for motivation.

It uses formulas for drawing the body(in too much detail) and slowly moves away from them. Probably overkill for anime figures or whatever but proportion and consistency are what i struggle with so a structured highly detail oriented cours is what works for me.

It’s hyper-detailed(many will say too detailed) but also i would otherwise know where to put things like the rib cage, shoulder blades or pelvis bones, random muscles in a dynamic pose. This are the little details that i see in shows that motivate me.

It costs $45 but the first several are on yt.

I just get bothered that even on very modern tech my CPU is under load even when idle in Win11 such that the fan is spooling up. I’m convinced they’re sneaking distributed AI compute into personal PCs. Doesn’t happen on my Linux install.

I had the same experience using a single hard drive. Two, ime, works flawlessly. Though i haven’t added windows boot to grub so i need to use BIOS to load windows, which is easy enough i haven’t bothered with grub. Your experience may vary based on BIOS.

Arch-KDE Plasma and Win11(personal and work respectively) on my desktop. Win10/manjaro on laptop.

I don’t suggest arch as a first forray into Linux, requires basic CLI experience for setup and maintenance.

I feel it suffers from a lot of the problems with RPGs of the time both culturally and mechanically. No one had a really good idea of where the genre could be taken. The story was fine though. I would suggest anyone getting into it to just read or watch summary and use the online tool for generating decisions/save.

I’m just pointing out the consistency in spoken form. Your criticisms are valid from a technical perspective, the best kind of correct…

I don’t feel it’s particularly broken honestly. Some languages are more consistent with their rules and therefore easier to learn but English is surprisingly consistent in practice/sound throughout the world. You also don’t need to memorize the gender of a washing machine…
