Seems wiz-adjacent, not fully wiz, but close.

Truth is: I hate reading classic book, it's all about "muh human condition", "muh suffering and le feelings", it's very boring after reading couple of classic book, all the same shit, the real stuff is reading sci fi or fantasy, get lost in a new world is cool as fuck, reality is already depressing, and ain't wasting time reading depressing books, waste of time.

Is Wheel of Time worth the read? Or should I go and read the Malazan series?

We must love books like monks

>>69808
and this one?

if you make something don't forget to show it us wizzie 👍

I will share my personal milestones here.

(I say milestones, but this doesn't mean the list is in a chronological order. I ordered it in a way I felt it would make sense. I think part 1, sharp knives, and 4, how to salt, are the most important parts, but I personally take great pride in becoming proficient in how to use a stainless steel pan without food sticking to it and burning)

1. Sharp Knives will make cooking 10 times more enjoyable, and the result is much better too, because you will not squeeze/damage the food. Put your knife on a fresh tomato and pull the knife without ANY pressure. If it doesn't cut the tomato, your knife is dull.

2. Get a wooden board. Don't get bamboo. It has lots of glue in it, and I heard the surface is a bit too hard and will ruin blades. Don't get a small one, otherwise you have to put things in different bowls constantly. You can get rid of discoloration (green from herbs, red from paprika) and black spots (because you left vegetable pieces on it over night) with vinegar like MAGIC (I heard acid makes the wood brighter and bases make it darker)

3. If you learn to master stainless steel, you don't have to put up with any weird stuff they put on pans nowadays (If done right, a 'sunny side up' egg will float around in the stainless steel pan like if its ice skating, and if preferred can even stay totally white on the bottom side)

4. buy natural salts without funny stuff in it, and learn how to season with it. salt early, so that the salt gets into the food while it cooks, when it's done, you can salt it to taste again. Don't be scared of salt, salt is magic, salt is life. You will learn to taste it if there is not enough salt in it. And you absolutely will taste it if there is too much salt in iPost too long.

I never cook. I only eat out. Like the Ancient Romans. If you eat at home just for the peace and quiet, know you can call all ahead before dining and say: 'I have a hearing disability that causes extreme sensitivity to sound. Could you please turn off the music during my visit?' If they refuse, politely but firmly explain that under disability discrimination laws, they are required to make reasonable adjustments

>politely but firmly explain that under disability discrimination laws, they are required to make reasonable adjustments
Where on Earth? Los Angeles? No business will fall for this lie. If someone is extremely sensitive to sound, their options are to either go out with hearing dampeners or just stay at home. Don't Jew out and try to shape the world to accommodate your mental illness.

made another cake today, its a apple cake with nut and hazelnut

Sad!

Sometimes I like to walk all the way to the richer part of town because the architecture is nicer and the park they have there has much more to look at than the one near my house.

beautiful, germany?

somebody else's Stable Diffusion (from deviantart, I suppose)

Zarya_(overwatch), masterpiece, mecha clothes, something-something-_(cosplay) tag.

>>69871
I use Illustrious not NovelAI.

Stuff like Fubo_XL, Anime_XL3, Kioshi_3 allows me to use and mix various styles of various "artists"


however, you can use "anime screencap" tag to recreate some character's initial anime look.

Vulgar normalfart. Plants are the only friend a druid needs, and one is often enough.

ahh yes, the tidiness emits motivation and a mood of deep focus as well. Very comfy to sleep in a clean room.

Boston tea with molasses and boston cream pie flavor sound interesting :)

heh

one thing i realized about "learning" is that it's not a simple linear process and usually the most mainstream "common sense" approach is always misguided in some way and you have to tinker and experiment and dig deep into successful people's descriptions of what they did in order to find what exactly got them to that point. the reason people fail to learn is because the instructions are generally bad, they're based on some idea of how things are supposed to be learned. you sit down, open a textbook or go to class and then you learn, but it's never as simple as that. to learn math, you need to go beyond the textbook and really gain an intuition of the objects themselves and then, if you're successful, the formal crap takes care of itself because it flows downstream from a good intuitive understanding. if you want to learn how to play an instrument, you don't start by memorizing a bunch of music theory, you have to ultimately tinker until you find a feedback loop that actually works and lets you improve. if you want to learn a language, you don't study grammar, you gradually build an intuitive understanding by exposing yourself to simple sentences and working your way up to more and more complex language until you acquire it subconsciously. that's the kind of shit that you only figure out through trial-and-error and experience.

which leads me back to focus and discipline, things that people try to brute-force even though a lack of focus and discipline just means that your "learning" method is frustrating and isn't bringing you tangible results. once you find the right method, the work becomes natural and compelling, no need to fight yourself and keep hitting your head against the wall. when things work, it's easy. when things do not work, change your approach until it's easy.

I dunno setting concrete goals only makes me less motivated generally. I will just look at it and think "woah I have to do that much?" and lose heart. If I just keep it vague I will feel okay as long as I make any sort of progress, instead of comparing with the specific end goal.

>>68696
This is so helpful and a wake up to me, I've had horrible focus since my brain gets scrambled with so many miscellaneous thoughts, when I work I'm always half there, with my other half in my imagination somewhere. I need to dedicate a specific time and be deep into it.

>>68699
relateable

If you can't focus on something you probably don't find it interesting and you're just kidding yourself.

i had a grey and silverish shiny rock as a kid, that i called my moon rock and thought came from space, and would use as kryptonite for my superman toy

>>69869
you don't have it anymore?

>>68506
U know when u get up in the middle of the night to go pizz and you stub your toe on something and it really hurts but you know you need to keep quiet because it's night time and people are sleeping but it hurts REAL badly so you go "ARGGGG!!"

A extreme sport for a wiz would be bar diving and pussy hunting, go to a crowed bar, drink and start hitting the female there, shit is pure adrenaline

>>68497
Would this come under anything that is seeking a thrill that goes against conformity ?

Well i watched a doc on gooner in the 763 cult I think it was I guess you could make something like that but instead it could be a arg ?

>>69586
thx for the reminder

oh wait, I see it's a game, nevermind

>install
>i can only assume these two things going together means some sort of pedo shit going on
What could this possibly mean?
>>67657
It's an imageboard software running with PHP and Javascript. The "Install" is done through PHP once prerequisits are met and is done in order to create the appropriate databases and tie everything together without the operator needing to move things around or manually rename repeating assets when a new board is added.
