If you look at beef you can have low resolution steaks.
The resolution preferred by God himself.
No. G-d's resolution is 80x24. Because in the beginning, there was only the CLI.

Install Debian Mint on my old laptop and see how much I can get working on it. My ultimate ambition is to replace all my Windows 10 activity entirely by the end of 2024
Drive less and ride my bike more.
Cook one meal from a different country every month. I've always loved cooking and I have a partner who is equally as enthusiastic to eat it with me! The foods have to be something I've never cooked before. Some can be ones I've eaten before, so I have something to compare to. I'm thinking of starting with traditional foods from Afghanistan, Russia, Ethiopia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Uyghur...
Do you know sorted foods on youtube? They have a bunch of different series, one where they do just that, going in alphabetical order from A-Z and then drawing a random country starting with that letter, and then cooking the national dish plus some community recommendations. It's quite fun!
Oh, no I haven't, but thank you for the share, I'll go take a look. Going out to eat has gone up in price so much that it is pushing me to learn to cook my favourite dishes, and explore flavours I would otherwise never have tasted before.
Something else I had planned to do was once a month, my partner and I write down three countries (six between us) we want to visit or re visit on small pieces of paper. We put them in a cup and draw three countries: First is the main meal, second is dessert, third is an activity.
Definitely more effort involved but it gets him to expand his culinary skills past pasta and chicken wraps.
My plan is to watch less movies, anime, YouTube. Instead go out and meet new people more often
I make one new years resolution every year, to not make any other new years resolutions.
So far it is going great!
Listen here you little shit
I'm planning to walk 1000 km in 2024. Nowhere fancy, just around my neighborhood.
That's just around 2.74km (rounded up) per day. So around 30 minutes of walking per day. Are you sure you're not doing more than that already?
Ah... Sadly no. That's why is my low stakes resolution. :) I work from home and I've gotten very lazy. I just roll from my bedroom to the office, down to the kitchen, and repeat.
Gonna try and keep stuff to make smoothies in the house so when I get the urge for a smoothie instead of being sad because I have no smoothie I will instead have a smoothie.
My goals are to lose 10 pounds by the end of the year and get my heart in better shape. I gained 30 pounds over Covid and will attempt to lose weight at the same rate I gained it

Mine is really just getting back into working out. I kept trying to go too hard after my shoulder surgery and kept pulling muscles (not in my shoulder), so I've taken like an 8 month break to let my body heal. This time I'm starting with my goal being 30 reps with perfect form at 5lb and going from there.
It sucks losing a bunch of muscle mass that you busted your ass to get, but luckily it's easier to regain it than to grow it the first time.
Eat more fish.
I’m gonna start doing my Duolingo more. Even if it’s just a few minutes at bedtime.
Got a new nano tank (aquarium) with co2 injection. I want it to look really nice and raise potential baby fish.
Solve a 12 sided Rubik's cube that i got as a gift on Christmas
Wouldn't that be a Rubik's Dodecahedron?
Sounds dumb, but eat more soup. Like miso soup with veggies and an egg, for example. Low calorie but filling and tasty. Trying to skip the noodles and rice with this one. Might add beans or quinoa if it isn't filling enough
In the realm of low-stakes New Year's resolutions, I've decided to approach things like a turtle: slow, steady, and deliberate.
One of my goals is to read a few pages before bed each night, embracing the tranquility of the night like a ghostly whisper weaving through the pages.
Another resolution involves culinary adventures—I plan to try a new recipe every month, daring my taste buds to dance to flavors they've yet to meet, maybe even conjuring a dish that turns a stinky apple into a delicious surprise. And to inject some movement into my work-from-home routine, I aim to take short walks during breaks, not as a sprint but as a turtle's amble, allowing myself to soak in the world outside my screen.
These resolutions are gentle nudges toward a better self without the weight of undue pressure.
eat more slowly. i dont chew my food enough and it makes my tummy hurt!
I want to create Polish-Russian language exchange group on Discord.
Also I want to start learning another language, probably Italian, Turkish or Latin.
- Lose ~35kg
- Start a business
- Make friends
- Fix my mental health
- Get my career back on track
- Stay clear of meth
If these your low stakes resolutions, i would like to know your high stake resolution.
"World peace, end hunger, fix climate change"
Dude these all seem like they could be very hard to do. Mine was gonna be like save more/stop going to restaurants so much
Low stakes would be getting back into a study routine, I want to improve my Norwegian. I'm quite proficient but plateaued at some point and stopped putting any effort in.
Use VPN more often
Two honestly. They're both kinda big picture, but both are fun and easy and low stakes.

Slow down, settle, nest. 2023 was a wild year filled with change. I got a job that became the focal point of my life, and then I got promoted. That job came with more friends and connections than I've ever had. It has been a very full, sometimes overwhelming year. 2024 is going to be my Convenience Store Woman year. I'm gonna settle into my management position, get good at it, and turn this dispensary into a beautiful weed distribution machine.

I'm gonna keep trying for a second romantic partner. It's gonna be fun because flirting is fun. And the stakes are low because I already have a fantastic, stable relationship with my wife. Failure means continuing the happy life I'm living now. I'll just keep trying to get the attention of boys with good hair.
2024 is gonna be good, but easier than 2023 plz
