My phone literally has a 10 minute timer saved called "Cool down"

Doesn't mean I remember to start it every time though lol

Cold fresh baked lasagna has a special place in my heart

Cold fresh baked lasagna, cut into servings, and reheated in the oven to get that melty crispy cheese on every side is one of the best things in the world. It's not an accident if the end result is better.

NGL that second bake sounds fire

With spaghetti I do a bake after the initial cook with layers of ricotta cheese and some garlicy bread crumbs on top and that turns out pretty good. Especially with some chunks of chicken in there.

Basically a lasagna with spaghetti noodles and a way bigger margin for error lol

Dude, you just described spaghetti au gratin, which was a diner staple back home growing up. Try it with chunks of Montreal smoked meat under cheese for a real treat.

Didn't realize it actually had a name lol

Sometimes I put little cubes of kielbasa (smoked polish sausage) in there when I'm feeling really fancy lol, that shit's fire

Would using your voice to create new timers for anything/everything you need be an easier habit to follow, or probably no?

Like, the flow would be:
Do something that requires timer -> tell phone to set timer

As opposed to perhaps:
Do something that requires timer -> open timers, find timer, set timer

Maybe your way is already better :)

I don't like having assistant always listening on my phone. I tried it for awhile but it bothered me having an always listening device right there waiting. (I've become a lot more privacy oriented with my personal data over the years)

One thing I did partially setup was having NFC tags in various places so all I had to do was unlock my phone and hold it to a specific tag for a timer to start (like my washer, dryer, food cool down, etc). But unfortunately due to an update making scanning NFC tags while your phone is locked not a thing anymore (combined with the death of Smart Unlock) that fun little project basically died in the cradle.

One little project I've been floating is setting up a couple micro controllers (1 in my laundry room and another in the kitchen) with some buttons I can just press to send me a notification on my phone (via contacting my home server) in X time when a timer expires. I've been in the planning stage of that one for awhile now but it had to get shelved until my server rebuild happens. (Hopefully soon)

So the stop gap right now is practicing a skill I'm perpetually shitty at: resisting the allure of memes and shit posts.
