If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Yeah I totally missed it + It is in a mix of other things. Thought, like other options suggested, there would be loads of people who would lean on movies/series to relax.

I do a lot of woodworking to keep myself busy. It's a great creative outlet for me and I've made a lot of items during Covid. Made an outdoor workbench, drill press table, laundry hamper, shoe rack, multiple stools, pen/pencil holders, various shelves, dual monitor rack, and other items for around the shop to organize all of my toys.

I didn't see anything that resembled Television in the list, but I also love genealogy, cooking, etc.

I've been involved with programming for just over 40 years, but I have been doing genealogy for more than 42 years. I've been involved with model railroading for more than 50 years.
With genealogy I've researched all aspects of my own family as well as my wife's family. I've found and met relatives most of the family didn't even know existed. This includes traveling overseas to visit some of them. There is a possibility that I could be related to Daniel Boone on 2 lines of my family, but I am definitely related to a former U.S. Presidential candidate. I've also organized a family reunion for my family since 1984.
I started out with HO scale trains in 1969, while my dad had O gauge trains. I now have his O gauge trains as well as all of my HO trains, and even started collecting N scale trains as well. Prior to Covid-19, I ran trains each month at the largest monthly train show in the U.S. Hopefully we can get back to that soon.

Which do you run the most - O, HO, or N?
As an O gauger, I am curious: was your father's collection all Lionel? Or did he have some older stuff, such as Ives? Or some more modern stuff, such as MTH, Rail King or others?

Fortunately, I didn't pick history as my career, so I can enjoy it now as a hobby.
Coding used to be a hobby as well, until work ruined it

Used to be scale models, and watercolor with pen and ink before that.

Robbing banks is thrilling, or so I've heard.

Combine it with your other answer and use an Arduino to monitor the moisture in the ground.

Cool. Me too, this year.

One zucchini plant is enough
Lots of tomatoes makes just a little sauce
A half acre of sweet corn isn't that much once the deer get into it

Goats are cool. I would like some someday. But I know they can be problematic.
