We've got our very first beautiful crying 1.5 month monster in our house now. We went bare bones with the preparations, only getting a crib, changing table and stroller. As the toys, books, play things from family start to come in, I want to start designing and building a storage area.

I'm thinking of an interactive storage area which grows along with my little girl and her play things. Interactive in the sense that the storage skeleton itself perhaps can be moved/ expanded/ collapsible, ala a treehouse or a fort.

I've dedicated an area in my house where the piano and wine rack used to be, it's a 1.2m x 1.2m corner next to a window in the living room.

Other things that came to mind is if one edge of the storage can be a hand painted vertical height marker (instead of being on the wall)

Open to any ideas and suggestions. I'm just trying to avoid the boring plastic storage containers and stacking them up.

I had fun ranting and hearing your rants, perhaps we can keep this going

Inspired by a podcast of the same name (running is BS) that loves to hate running. This week particularly hate running because..

What I thought was an ache turned out to be an injury.

Early Jan, pushed a bit hard on the tempo runs (4:50min/km pace), my comfortable pace is (5:45/km). Felt a niggle in my inner groin immediately, but wished it away (it didn't go away)

Continued training, limping on one side, telling my partner it was nothing when it obviously was.

Come early march, half marathon I was training for. Woke up, acknowledged maybe it was an injury, promised my partner I'd take it easy.

Broke my promise at gun start, pushed on for first 5km, another 5km, another 5km and the final 6km at target pace.

Made it with a PB!

In return, left knee is swollen, left back is aching like never before.

And fine, now I acknowledge it's a injury and am gonna rest with the running for a few weeks.

Running is not actually Bs. It's idiotic runners like me that make it BS

Spring time in upon the northern hemisphere, but that brings about the freaking hoard of hovering flies 🪰🪰🪰🪰🪰 at mouth level for easy ingestion.

Whether it is parks, trails, by water bodies, I can't seem to get away from them and always end up eating a mouthful of tiny flies, or at least up in my nostrils.

The worst was when I held my breath over a few steps thinking I made it through a patch, and gasping my way into another horde and engulfing a mother road after. UGH.

My friends and I paid an arm and a leg to catch Jurgen's penultimate home game (because the final home itself would require sacrificing my entire bloodline)

Being our first experience to Liverpool, it was 100000% worth it

AMA

After years of procrastination and over filming, I've decided to knuckle down and put it together. This is video is one one more proud on, the pacing, the story telling, albeit a simple one. Any comments or suggestions are welcome!

I film with a GoPro and Sony A6000, and edit it in Da Vinci Resolve.

I'm trying to backup some stuff to dropbox from my hdd (~300GB of photos and videos), but my hdd keeps being disconnected on its own? and how the hell do I clear all notifications?

Was surprised to see a considerable Swiss flag on r/places (next to DICKS). Is it still active over there?

Where is everyone at?

Hi fellow sync-ers,

Having joined Lemmy recently, I have been having a ton of fun. However accessing Lemmy through my mobile browser has been an awful experience, similar to my past Reddit experience till I found Sync.

I'm not sure how much longer I can tolerate the browser experience, and am hesitating jumping on a app. Where's your head at about this?

Edit (4 days later)

I've been on Connect and has been 8/10 so far. Gonna dual use with liftoff after seeing the comments.

• wefwef/ voyager - 46

• Jerboa - 23

That's a way to start the weekend!
