Games while lazing in a hammock is unbeatable 👌

A skill toy. They originated as prayer beads in Russian prisons, and people started using them as a way to pass the time by flipping them around and doing tricks. Modern chetki are designed specifically for this type of manipulation

I have a few staples that's for sure!

I would definitely say begleri are my fav skill toys!

It's not a yo yo. It's for contact-style manipulation, similar to a deadeye or coin tricks, but hollow

Pffffft. Only 27? I’ve maxed my allowed tabs on my phone browser several timed over, let alone my computer browser.

Also. Firefox >>> Chrome.

Lmaoooo that’s a hilarious mental image

Glad you found it eventually though!

Fantastic! I really hope you like it :)

And yes it is! !idlehands@lemmy.ml

I also have a few posts on there in my post history, if that’s easier to navigate to!

Yep you can! I have a set on my wrist right now, in fact. Some styles can be very clunky and annoying (esp with the tassels, which are needed to be able to slide the closing bead down to slip it off your wrist and give you slinging room) but if you shop around a little I’m sure you’ll find something that works for you.

I personally never go anywhere without arounsquare’s nano mkultra set - pricey, but I’ve definitely gotten my moneys worth. You can see them in a few of my other posts on here. I also got a great set from workshopfidgets on etsy, similar to this set here. There’s also loads of other great sets on etsy, and the internet in general!

Sorry if this was long, I’m just very passionate about skill toys and fidgets of all kinds - hence having the ‘idle hands’ community here haha

Oh awesome, I already deal with sleep paralysis on a semi-regular basis, now you’re telling me there’s yet another thing to worry about? 😭

I did search and wasn't coming up with anything, so forgive me if this has been asked before

On the lemmy homepage on the right side, there's the subscribed communities tab - is there a limit to how many are shown there? Reddit had a maximum for subscribed subreddits, which was increased slightly if you had gold. I'm wondering if lemmy has a similar limitation (beyond 'yes there has to be some limit otherwise things break') and if so, where can you see a list of everything you're subscribed to? Does this vary from instance to instance, as in does the lemmy software allow for different instances to customise how many communities appear there?

For context I have lemmy.ml, lemmy.world, and vlemmy.net (maybe rip :( ?) accounts

Thanks for any help!
