A few beers perhaps after busting my rear on the yard, also whiskey for severe pain like in my tooth this week. Besides that really not into it no more. Not much for Indica after doing a yard, only gonna result in me sleeping all day. Drinking idk, it does things to my stomach so i avoid it quite a bit. Also messes with my Insomnia.

Not that drinking has become a problem for me, i just prefer indica. Be sorta buzzed on a 6 pack of beer, wake up with a hang over or spend the same on a edible that puts me on my ass for 2 days and rids of pain and helps me sleep while no hangover. Hmm, decisions decisions.

Man, we are so so different. Not putting you down, this is interesting! Believe it or not, I've never had a hangover in my life. Drinking a 6 pack is something I've never done. If I drink, it's one 3-4oz glass of wine or one 12oz bottle of ale or similar. Maybe at Thanksgiving I'll have a 2nd glass of wine, there's all those open bottles just sitting there.

Indica? That's some kind of pot, I guess. I have some pot. If I smoke it it's just a toke or two and I already feel loaded and don't smoke any more. Don't encounter edibles, guess I could make some if I look for recipes. First time I got stoned on pot I got so high it was phenomenal. Great experience. But I don't know if I could duplicate that now, I'm afraid to try. Maybe I should.

Yeah i used to drink lots, it just does things to me every time i drink now. Its like my body is rejecting it and that is fine. Indica as a whole i enjoy 2 ways, either 20mg to deal with back pain, help me mellow out so i could get a extra hour or few of sleep perhaps. Does little for Hypomania if anything i double down on everything to get anywhere with it. I need to eat a entire 130mg Hubby Bar or a 100mg pack of Indica to get beyond capital. If you seen Tombstome with Curly Bill coming out the tent all bent out of shape, yeah that is the best damn way to enjoy it. Ironically idk whats up but i am feeling the 80mg i had on Friday still, i doubled down on that and a bit of whiskey for this damn tooth....

I did mix a bit of beer with a 80mg edible once, yeah i fell on the floor from idk being so far gone it was beyond great. Head hit the floor and my friends rushed to pick me up. I laughed it off cause i felt NOTHING with that fall. Yeah i can't mix anymore. 😀

shoot i have just had 1 sip so far in my life

i do want to try wine someday, but i don't think my meds will ever allow it. maybe just another sip.
 
I drink occasionally but never really overdo it. Never had a hangover or really gotten drunk. At least not drunk to the point where I don't remember anything. Tipsy is about the extent of it, where when I'm walking it feels like my legs are on autopilot and that I'm not actually the one controlling them. If I keep going I will start to feel invincible, that is probably the stage where people start doing stupid crap. I make sure never to get to that point.

I probably drink the most when I'm camping, might have like 3-4 strong beers, and wine. But I need to stop early or I'll be peeing all night and it sucks having to go outside in middle of the night when it's cold.
 
I'm still trying to get my preferred toiletpaper. I didn't consider that a goal when this thread was created, but it is now...
 
I am currently replacing the monitor in my space ship with a revolutionary 24K curved flat screen monitor! 15ft by 8ft!!
I found a small company in silicone valley that with my help was able to engineer the monitor for me!
In 100 years that company will be the only company making monitors suitable for space travel!!

I still have some Saurian Brandy!!
 
I ended up upgrading to dual 4k myself so guess I did achieve my new year's resolution!



That's an older pic I got the two side monitors now, but currently they're only setup for my work PC when I work from home. I will probably keep them separate either way like connect them to Raspbery PIs to display alarms or future CCTV etc.
 
I don't know if I have any remaining 2020 goals. Survive maybe? I know what my 2021 goal will be: have the year be less shitty than 2020
 
I still find it odd how the 4k TVs are so cheap compared to the 4k monitors. Especially once you get into the 32 inch range on the monitors. They jump to around a grand, when you can get a 55" TV for like $300. I ended up going with two 28" 4k monitors as two of those was price of a single 32, and we have 3x 27" at work and it's usable size wise. I did have to do a bit of scaling such as within Firefox as web text was a little small, but other than that it's awesome having all this real estate. Great for video editing too I can see 2x as much tome line.
 
Mine could definitely fall under the careful what you wish for category. I had decided that 2020 was going to be the year of new, new experiences, new stuff, going new places just doing things different than I have for the last 20 years or so.

So, I think I can say I mission accomplished!

monitors have better quality panels, generally offer much higher refresh rates as standard--and higher options for even greater cost--better contrast ratios (whatever that actually means) and of course now the "necessary gaming features" generally come as standard to some degree--AMD Freesync or nVidia I suddenly forget what it's called.

G-Sync, but they missed a golden opportunity to call it N-Sync. 😀
 
My new TV is supposedly 120hz and has Freesync. I don’t really have any plans to game on it, though.

Don’t you need some badass video card like a GeForce 2070 to game at 4K?
