    Yeah like when I made a binder full of geothermal information and half baked ideas that probably already existed, only to never touch it again 2 months later…

      Why does energy go away when you more need it to finish what you have started, dammit.

        Because telling people about your goals gives you a similar dopamine hit as actually completing them, so it makes you less motivated to finish.

      3 years ago I decided to try making a SpaceX DVD (for fun) with most important milestones. I just needed to add end chapters for proper behavior on DVD players and 1 video. Also fix colors on one titleset menu.
      I gave up on it. It’s mostly finished, but I gave up. It is the only reason I still keep the dusty Windows 10 installation on my laptop. I didn’t know DVDStyler also works on Linux, and migrating the files would be too much hassle.
      But maybe, later…

      Edit: Fixed the date. Apparently 2020 was 3 years ago…

        Same with a little game I made with unity. Only need to fix a couple of stuff and do a nice UI.

        Well now I would need to redo it with Godot.
