Hmm. Is there something that syncs plaintext files between devices, and handles file conflicts better than syncthing? (Which just creates a copy of the conflicting file.)

I guess if there was a satisfying answer, we wouldn't need Git, right? :/

My current monthly challenge is to eat at a 1000 kcal deficit for 30 days! :breadnommed: Posting about my challenges here has been really motivating in the past, so I'll do it again!

I started on Tuesday (Day 1), where I consumed the amount of energy required to charge my smartphone battery 92 times!

Day 4: I ate the calorie equivalent of 8.3 kg of cucumbers! That would be about 27 cucumbers! πŸ₯’

Day 5: I drank 150 ml of olive oil! Cheers! πŸ«’

Day 6: I ate the kinetic energy of a 21-ton truck hurtling down the highway at 80 km/h. Feeling kinda hungry today.

Day 7: Today, I ate enough energy to lift the Eiffel Tower by 5.58 cm. If only Paris would let me. πŸ—Ό

Also, that's 5 mm more than I wanted.

Day 8: Today, I could've eaten exactly 1 kg of cooked white rice! 🍚

Day 9: To produce the energy I ate yesterday, you'd need to extend the runtime of Germany's "Isar 2" nuclear plant by 1/26th of a second! ☒️

Day 10: Today, I could've eaten one quarter of a Black Forest cake! 🍰

Day 11: To burn the energy I ate yesterday, I'd need to ride my bike for about 37 km! 🚴 That's approximately the circumference of Halley's comet. @piko warns me that there are no bike paths there, though.

Day 12: Yeaterday, I was six trillionths of the Saarland! :D

That is, I ate as much energy as the Saarland (a federal state of Germany) consumes in 5.2 milliseconds!

Day 13: I ate exactly five sticks of dynamite! 🧨

Day 14: The energy I ate yesterday could power a 5 mm LED for 3.5 years! πŸ’‘

Over the last 14 days, I lost as much weight as the entire luggage I took on the Interrail trip last month! πŸŽ’

For context, this is a graph of my body weight over the last 10 years. Whoa, I've done a lot of dieting! :O Always with a deficit of 500 kcal/day. This time, I'm trying 1000 kcal/day, and I think seeing fast results is super motivating to me!

My current motivation is papers like "Years of life lost and healthy life-years lost from diabetes and cardiovascular disease in overweight and obese people: a modelling study" (Grover et al., 2015).

They estimate that when people like me lose weight, they will live around 4 years longer, and, in addition, will have 7 more healthy life years (free from diabetes
or cardiovascular disease). That sounds pretty desirable to me! :)

Day 15: The energy I ate yesterday could power a 5-litre gasoline car for 3 km... πŸš—

Day 16: I ate 1/100th of an average lightning bolt yesterday!! ⚑ I'm a bit shocked!

@blinry@chaos.social avatar

Day 17: To store the energy I ate yesterday, you'd need to charge a poor little 1000 ΞΌF capacitor to 100 kV! :D πŸ’₯πŸ’¨

Day 18: With the energy I consumed yesterday, I could run my laptop for 200 hours! πŸ’»

@blinry@chaos.social avatar

Day 19: If you push on 44000 ballpoint pens, you can store the energy I ate yesterday as elastic energy! πŸ–ŠοΈ

@blinry@chaos.social avatar

Day 20: I ate the magnetic energy of 100 million fridge magnets yesterday! That's 2.4 magnets per household in Germany! 🧲

@blinry@chaos.social avatar

Day 21: I ate the energy consumed by 4500 Google searches yesterday! πŸ”Ž

@blinry@chaos.social avatar

Day 22: If all humans who currently live would whisper into my ear for 2000 years, my eardrums would receive acoustic energy equivalent to what I ate yesterday! πŸ”Š

@blinry@chaos.social avatar

Day 23: I ate 14 micro-picard today! For more practical uses of the picard energy unit, see @JanHegenberg's book "Weltuntergang fΓ€llt aus"! :fairydust:

Welcome to this year's #inkdiary, where I'll draw about what moved me each day. Here's day 1!

@blinry@chaos.social avatar

What an exciting month! <3 We really made it around the Baltic Sea! I can barely believe this actually happened!

Overall, we traveled around 5000 km by train, stayed in 11 different places, and lost 2 objects! #inkdiary
