It’s hard to not make them sound trivial, but you’ll see some of them in the memes that pass through here. Off the top of my head though:

• the importance of routine/consistency. He got up at the same time almost every day for 50 years. He went to the gym before anything got in the way, that sort of thing.
• he pushes conscious decision making, of following through on things and being definite. Do not let yourself be guided by what you want in the moment, be guided by what you plan and intend.
• put things in the same place. Put things back where you got them from. Don’t rely on your memory, rely on your habits.

When I write these they seem silly and trivial, but they help me a lot.

It’s hard though. A key criteria (at least in the UK) how much it affects you day-to-day. My father probably has it and passed along a lot of guidance that I now recognise as coping mechanisms/symptom management strategies. Day to day I’ve got it in hand, it’s only when the big storms come that I struggle, and that doesn’t fit with the diagnostic approach.

I don’t know how tech savvy you are, but I’m assuming since your on lemmy it’s pretty good :)

The way we’ve solved this sort of problem in the office is by using the LLM’s JSON response, and a prompt that essentially keeps a set of JSON objects alongside the actual chat response.

In the DND example, this would be a set character sheets that get returned every response but only changed when the narrative changes them. More expensive, and needing a larger context window, but reasonably effective.

I like the NMM on the axe, and the dusty build up round the feet. I think I’d like some pops of contrast worked in for the next one, maybe shoulder pads same as helmet, ribbons on the back pack could be red.

There’s a fine balance between getting the grimy effect and flattening out your contrast. A good tip I got a long time ago was to take a photo of your model with your phone, then make it black and white and see if it still works for you.

It’s got a nice component to go with it, so setting up is easier. I particularly use it for scheduling thermostats, and find it much more user friendly. Sure I could do it with automations, but I’d either have one, massively unwieldy one with lots of states and triggers, or lots of individual ones.

This custom component is what I use and love - https://github.com/nielsfaber/scheduler-component

I have this battle - I am great at routine but terrible at habit. My wife asks me why I do the same thing every day, and I can’t really explain that I have to do it every day or i’ll stop doing it completely.

These are a great example that I might use in the office. Everything makes sense in isolation, but the unity the wind, waves and sails don’t quite match in a way I couldn’t put my finger on.

Listen. Well done. Just because it’s simple, doesn’t mean it’s easy.

Now go and put away your laundry. /s

It’s hard to judge any airbrush by white. The pigment used tends to be larger than say a red, so it clogs more frequently.

If you have some primed models, after you’ve cleaned your brush use the paints you have rather than a primer. As someone else said, there’s an additive in the paint to make it a ‘primer’ and that has a tendency to stick tight to the insides of my brush.

I can’t decide if I want this to have been written by an AI or not.

This looks great, in no small part because the weathering on the rest of the leg looks great too. Show us the rest of the model!
