I progressively vaped lower and lower nicotine percentages until I was vaping 0% nic. Still did that for a couple weeks and then I quit vaping altogether.
It's nice to be able to separately quit nicotine and vaping, since they're both addictive.

Bringing friends and community together? I see an awful lot of Lemmings talk about disliking people, being introverted, etc.
I think if there's one main thing people will remember about me, it's how I bring people together. I get all my depressed friends off their ass and make them hang out with me, fun stuff :)
I think some people mistakenly think that being in a city means you have to go out a ton because there's all these cool bars, museums, etc.
But to me, I think of it more like, it's nice that if I want to do one of those things it doesn't require much effort, but I still only do it if I want to
Scenarios:
- You want to drink a lot and have an energetic night - One of the coolest things about cities is how close and accessible bars are. This makes it super easy to meet up with your friends and pregame a ton. Then you can walk over to a bar or club already hammered, and you only have to buy one or two drinks to keep it going.
- You want a cozy night - Then just get together with friends at one of your places and play board games or watch a movie or something. Now, if every single one of your friends has a really small apartment, then I understand this might be less comfortable. Maybe the apartment building has a common space?
- Daytime events - Parks, community events, festivals, etc. There's usually a few free events every day, check your local news
What a stupid comment. Just showing up to a protest is far more than most people do. Do you think the No Kings protest would have had so much coverage if only 100 people went to it?
Mind sharing what service you use for it? Paid or free?
Fighting depression is hard as fuck. Every muscle and bone in your body will tell you to give up, it's too hard, it's not worth it, etc. But it's definitely worth it. Good luck.
Set aside time for reflection (what goals are working and what aren't), and celebrate the fuck out of even the slightest win. Cleaned your room? That's fantastic. Don't hold off on being proud of yourself until you've completely turned your life around. You have to truly convince yourself that each small step along the way is really a huge victory. Then, start getting addicted to those wins. It'll work out eventually.
Pennsylvania's got you covered with Pittsburgh and Philly.
Pittsburgh has great walking but its transit is quite limited. Philly has good transit (for USA).
Both very affordable compared to other cities.
Chicago is pretty similar to Philly in terms of affordability, walkability and transit.
I'm a bassist in a few bands. Wish there was more bass discussion here on Lemmy.
If you're into prog rock, check out one of my band's songs: frog rock

I'm reading Warbreaker right now because someone said I should read it before Stormlight Archive, but I'm very excited to start that series soon.
I've heard great things about Wheel of Time, although one of my friends said it can be a bit harder to get into.
I can totally imagine that book being really boring to some people. I almost didn't include the actual book series in this post but I thought people would be curious.
I think for people who are big readers, reading books that they only kinda enjoy isn't a big deal for them. They might even just appreciate that it's different.
But for folks who don't read much and are trying to get into it, chugging through a book they only partially like might ruin their entire vision of what reading should be.

I do devops at work and my experience is that really any CI/CD system works, they all have enough features to do what you want. They all fundamentally just run scripts on boxes. Therefore, I say pick the easiest one, likely the one that is built into whatever Git system you are using.
Try to keep your pipelines simple-ish when you can, they almost never need to be that complicated. 95% of the time it's just running a command or two. If a pipeline needs to do something complex, I'd recommend writing that script into the Git repo and calling it, rather than having a CI job that is 100 lines long.
