The trick is to first animply enjoy your meal and then anfterwards enjoy watching something.

Is this actually an issue people have?

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 30 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

If you're browsing Netflix, yeah.

If you have a queue in a media player of locally-saved episodes and movies, no.

locally-saved episodes and movies

YARR!

[–] Pixel_Jock_17@piefed.ca 7 points 3 days ago

Not necessarily! I used to buy DVDs and blurays and rip them so I'd own the movie physically and was building a library digitally.

I definitely have this issue looking though my jellyfin

[–] sik0fewl@piefed.ca 6 points 3 days ago

No, I would never make dinner before picking out something to watch.

We have a mealtime videos community right here on Lemmy to make it much easier to find something interesting :)

The trick is to pick what you want to read/watch before preparing the food.

Heat your plate to avoid cold food!

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

Pop it in the microwave = heating the plate while keeping the food cold.

Every fucking time, smh.

People forget to eat their food while they watch something?

[–] Janx@piefed.social 14 points 3 days ago

while they pick something to watch.

[–] balderdash9@lemmy.zip 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It's more like people don't want to start eating while they're still looking for something to watch. At least, that's how it is for me.

[–] illi@piefed.social 4 points 3 days ago

I also refuse to eat during opening credits
