The Artemis app is in beta and it’s looking pretty promising. Definitely still some bugs, but the UI is dead simple and easy to customize. Switching to a subbed only view works well too. The official mag is m/artemisapp

I tried using it for a few months and just kept getting wildly inaccurate predictions. It wasn’t any faster or easier so I just continue typing normally. Plus the multi-language recognition isn’t good enough in my experience.

Now I’m tempted to bake a steak shaped cookie from an entire tube of cookie dough

I personally love working nights. I’m not a morning person by any stretch of the imagination. In fact I am actively worse at things the earlier I wake up. Conversely my brain feels clearer and more active after 10pm.

That being said, my social life is almost entirely online. I rarely go out IRL. I sleep like a rock and only need about 6 hours anyway.

If you are someone who needs to talk to people, has trouble sleeping during the day, or requires a lot of sleep, the night shift is likely not for you.

Some people are built for it, some aren’t.

It’s really just par for the course with Apple. They’ve been making their products hostile to repair for years. One of the more egregious examples being the iPhone 4. The cable that connected the display to the mainboard was strung between the two so that when the phone was opened, any inexperienced user or repair-person would likely tear it in half. To say nothing of error 53, an error that came up when attempting to replace the home button with a non-official part, despite not selling official parts.

This is the heart of the issue. People don’t feel like they are allowed to take time to themselves. In reality all it takes is not answering the messages if you don’t feel like it. Hell, you don’t even have to look at them.

Anyone I talk to regularly, would not care if I didn’t answer their texts for a few days. My phone is always on vibrate or silent. I engage with people only as much as I want to.

What I’m saying is all that stuff can be changed if you want it to.

The YouTube channel Pointy Hat recently had their 100,000 sub special on the Feywild. They created a short adventure (1-2 sessions, obo 3-4 hours each) set in the Feywild. The video it’s attached to is kind of long (~40 min) but is an excellent look at the Feywild. The actual portion covering the adventure gives tips on running it as well. I’ve read it over and it’s pretty well put together.

Video link in case you’re interested. The adventure is in a link in the description.

Same goes for Ginny Di’s Steal This Sidequest. It’s shorter and easier to scale too.
