Bit of a mess today. Woke up early but my brother was in the bathroom so I really only got ready at 8:45. Shaved, which added a little more time. Had a turkey cream cheese egg and (Kraft) cheese sandwich, though I probably should've put the cheese right after the egg came out of the pan rather than before. Had some coffee, immersion, Hario Switch, with some milk. Spent most of the day watching AI Presidents and checking Discord. Dinner -- sour soup with catfish and water spinach and small shrimp and plenty of herbs. Later generated images through Flux for Clods. Not much deeper thinking today. I think I'm just in a little rut, or just bored. Incidentally it actually feels like I've been daydreaming less; the only time I felt like my mind wandered off was for 15 or 20 seconds when washing dishes. Bittersweet that my visuospatial attention improves during the summer, and not in school. Same thing happened with my memory last year, from August to September or so, when I felt more confidence in my episodic memory (and still kind of do now, or I'm just willing to "sketch out" and imagine motor planning in my head more often). Warm today, and the AC thermostat still isn't working, so the late afternoon passed by quite slow. Haven't used my iMac in what feels like forever. I kind of miss it. Actually, not kind of. I do miss it, specifically the extra screen space. I feel like I mentioned this already but UI/UX imposes it's own limits on functionality as well. I can multitask like mad -- haven't tested it much but I will -- on my laptop, but I can't guaranteedly arrange two windows side by side all the time (e.g. because of scaling). By contrast I can have 5, 6, 7 windows open on my iMac but I have to watch my RAM usage. Until I enabled Memory Saver on Chrome, my iMac's swap on heavy days would go up to 75, 80 GB. Now it's down to 3, 4 GB on heavy days, which is much better.
