Yeah I guess that’s my take on ‘gamifying things’, but there’s probably a few different ways to do it. I’ve heard that in psychology, rewards are a lot more effective than punishments - so maybe frame it slightly differently. Personally I wouldn’t base things on how well you do in the game, because that could get frustrating - in the worst scenario you’ll already be annoyed at doing poorly in the game, and that’s followed by having to do more work. Instead I’d spin it, so if you do all the tidying reward yourself with an hour of gaming. If you get all your chores done, you get 2 hours of gaming etc.
I agree with what others have said about gamifying life. For example, ‘oh it’s 5pm, I need to spend 30 minutes doing some tidying before I can play a game again’. And for games with no clear end point, set yourself goals so you know when to take a break. ‘Once I’ve built this factory, I need to take an hour’s break before I can play again’.
Oh man, why couldn’t my bolzmann brain construct a better reality?
Lol, does the cat not mind being an arm rest?
Yeah I agree with this. Both sides have committed atrocities. The innocent people caught in the middle suffer.

Thanks for that. It is odd how these radical feminist views have gone so far that they loop back around to the far right. And yes it’s surprising that the Guardian is giving them a platform. I wonder why it does? Is it just the paper has always supported feminism, but the feminists that write their articles have become more radicalised over time?
I really don’t understand how these radical feminists think that transgender rights are somehow eroding women’s rights. Every trans person I know just wants to get on with their lives, they don’t have some agenda. If you wrote an article about how gay rights are causing some issue it would be considered right-wing. So why is it different for trans rights? Crazy
I’m not aware of the situation - are the journalists transphobic or the commenters?
Looks delicious! That pancetta mmmm
The economy… has changed
Sudden urge to take down… metal gear
There does seem to be an unusual level of support for Russia/China in certain lemmy communities…
The texture of the balloons made me think I was looking at meat for a moment
