minus-squarem15otw@feddit.uklinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI actually use a dice (D6, 50:50 choice usually) to decide between two options sometimes. The idea is to fool my brain into revealing what it really wants. Like, if I can’t decide, I’ll assign each choice odds or evens, then roll. If I’m OK with the result, then it decided for me no problem. Maybe I didn’t care, maybe I preferred what I rolled. If I don’t like it, then RNG just showed me what I really wanted – now I can go with the other option. Reduces decision fatigue, and speeds up my life. I’ve been teaching it to my kids (although their favourite RNG is the Chwazi app.)
