July 3, 22: Routine, Grocery Shopping, No Streak, TV, and Games

[Not sure what my deal is at the moment, but I totally don’t feel like writing a post right now. 🤷 Guess I got to move past that or else feel guilty for getting voted on a shitpost…]

Fell asleep around eight last night (or rather passed out watching tv) and slept until around four thirty. Wenche slept out on the couch, so I woke up (wasn’t woken up) and got about seven and a half hours. Still can’t seem to catch up and it’s taking a serious toll on my motivation and mood, but trying to keep positive and focused…

Can’t think of anything really interesting to mention about the morning routine. Really, just did all the same stuff I usually do. I suppose I did spend a little extra time getting my and Solairitas’ wallets cleaned out and selling off the shittokens that come from drips and pools.

Otherwise, I suppose it is noteworthy that I put in my first withdrawal on COIN. So far, honestly, I’m a bit disappointed with paying them to track me and the only way I can see to make it profitable is to speculate on the price of XYO. Figured I’d give it a shot both as an experiment and as a way to actually get some value back out (which will hopefully go up in time). XYO has been upwards of seven cents and is now slightly over a half a cent, so there is some room for price action to the upside there. Not expecting to 14x my money, but double is reasonable and it might help to offset the cost.

Got my post done and published and shared a few minutes early (although I was a little short on the word count today - just didn’t have all that much to say - slept the afternoon was about it 😭) and then we headed in to town to do the grocery shopping.

A couple hundred bucks later and we were home and had everything put away. I grabbed a sandwich for lunch and that was about the extent of my productivity for the day.

I know I spent quite a bit of time sitting in the basement, but honestly, I don’t really remember what I was doing. I chatted some on discord, I guess and watched more YouTube videos on websockets.

I’m pretty well convinced that it’s going to be smarter to abandon the express routes I’ve set up in favor of bidirectional communication through a socket. That way I can fire an event to the client in response to reading a block from the chain rather than forcing the user to refresh the browser (make another http request) to get new changes.

I also looked some more into react-toastify which enables toast notifications. Looks like a slick way to handle I/O and can be customized fairly well…better than just throwing in an empty div and putting information in there.

I suppose I did do a little more work on the Discord server, but nothing major, just got Banjo going. I also spent a bit more time talking about the project on the new FB page…normies just don’t seem to be able to grasp the concept of Web 3.0 at all.

I did come up with this, which I think distills the matter:

Web 1.0: Nobody owns the information.
Web 2.0: They own your information.
Web 3.0: I own my information.

Wenche made us some burgers and fries for dinner and we watched some more of The Neighbors until bedtime (which was me collapsing early again). I was about four thousand steps short of my goal for the day, despite having done the shopping, and I did do a little cheating while I laid in bed watching TV. I started to fade in and out, though, and finally just gave up and accepted the fact that I hadn’t achieved the goal. 😭

Luckily, tomorrow is the Fourth of July, so we have the day off. Hoping to try and get some of the changes done that I’ve spent the last three days just thinking about. (Thank goodness nobody - except me - has invested anything in this…can’t spend days pondering things when other peoples’ money is on the line.)

[Hooray! I overcame my inertia and got a decent post done. 👍😁]

Today, once again, I did actually get some SIM from dShitty. 😲 I also generated a new NFT (that’s good) and it’s a homeless person that does nothing but decrease my stats (that’s bad) but it increases my population (that’s good) and that increases my crime rate (that’s bad). 😡🤬😛

I remembered to go in on Rising Star for a second time today! I still had drunk fans, but I was pretty certain I had some Ego built up underneath, so I did a lesson. Once they expired, it was back to zero, so missions it is.

Still several more days to wait for HashKings to even be something that needs doing. I guess that is what growing weed is like, except once you sell it you actually make some bank.

At least the plants are displaying a reasonable jpeg, we know that’s a tough one to fix.

Went in and did my SPS claim today, but that was the extent of the attention I paid to Splinterlands. I moved some more vouchers out, but they’re still too low for me to take the trade, so just waiting.

Not sure if or when I might regain the desire to play. Seems like botting and/or renting is the smarter way to go with this (if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em).

Kinda’ thinking about trying to get my Wordles done right after I do my post…we’ll see, though, there’s a high likelihood of getting distracted.
