  • I use Aurora, while the development has been “paused indefinitely” there are still plenty of features that make this app well worth it. There is a pretty exhaustive list of additional content that you can add to the application, making it super easy to build any kind of character you want. I’ve tried a few of the Android apps out there like 5E Character Sheet and while those might work well for you, I really appreciate the easy item management that Aurora provides.



  • Selfhosting is the act of hosting applications on “hardware you control”. That could be rented or owned, its the same to us. You could go out and buy a server to host your applications but there a few issues that you might run into that could prevent you from simply standing up a server rack in your spare room. From shitty ISPs to lack of hardware knowledge there are plenty of reasons to just rent a VPS. Either way youre one of us :)









  • The extra time in the gym is probably due to some extended release caffeine that some blends include. But you’re 100% right about the level of caffeine included. It can really fuck up your day if you don’t understand your tolerance and cycling is something I highly recommend to anyone who uses pre workout. Makes coming back like Christmas even if the first week is a bit rough


  • I’m no exercise scientist so I can’t explicitly recommend this to you personally but this is what I use. Basically caffeine with some other chemicals that help you have a productive workout. It’s not something you use every time you go to the gym but it helps you push that little bit extra when under load.

    Pre workout meals are equally important and I recommend watching some of Jeff Nippards YouTube videos to learn more about what makes a good pre workout meal. Eating in general is important surrounding the gym but again I’m no expert so I’ll leave it to them to speak on the specifics.

    ITS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT NOT ALL PREWORKOUTS ARE CREATED EQUAL.

    Do your own research before making a purchase


  • I really enjoy it when I have something I’m aiming for. The accomplishment of hitting a new PR (1 rep max of otherwise) gives me a major dopamine hit. It’s going to be different for everyone though, I dispise cardio even though I do it for example. I usually have to trick myself to enjoy it like turning on a TV show or podcast or audiobook I’m really interested in. Recently the Pre-work out Ive been using has had a major positive impact in my mood as well. Not just because of the addition energy but I almost feel euphoric during my whole session.
