Yeah, I barely use quick tap. The swipe down was so intuitive, and with a bigger phone triple tapping requires you to rebalance the phone in your hand, etc.

Do you have Quick Tap enabled? I have mine set up to show notifications (I miss the old ability to swipe down on the rear fingerprint reader), but yours might be set up to play/pause media.

There is !reddead@lemmy.world, but it’s pretty quiet. You could try posting there to get some of that content going. It’s a bit of a vicious cycle, though - the lack of content drives people away, leading to less content.

I will say that even in smaller communities I find that people are quite helpful here with questions, which is great.

It does seem like the post reddit boom of interaction and growth has waned, thought, and many of the communities that were starting to grow are now much quieter than they were a few weeks ago. I think that the lemmy.world downtime for so long really drove people away, which is a shame.

Black out shades for the nursery if you don’t have them… We live at a pretty northern latitude and in the summer the kid would never sleep! There are some cheap ones that suction cup to the windows, which are great for travel too and won’t break the bank.

We bought one color changing smart lightbulb for the nursery lamp and it was a great idea. You can turn it red and still be able to see when you come in at night, like a darkroom, while still being able to navigate the room and not trip over stuff.

Echoing the white noise machine. A cheap smart speaker (Google mini) can also be useful - you can adjust the volume from outside the room; there are ton of white noise podcasts, and if your kid likes music instead, you can start with that and switch to white noise.

Yeah, even though slow motion makes it look worse, I was shocked that it wasn’t given in real time. But the commentary team was convinced that it was just a natural body position. I continue to have no idea what constitutes a handball in the box.

1. Wake up
2. Fall out of bed
3. Drag a comb across my head
4. Find my way downstairs
5. Drink a cup
6. Look up and notice I am late
7. Find my coat
8. Grab my hat
9. Make the bus in seconds flat

If you don’t like it, don’t pay for it and use something else?

Yep! Fixed it, thanks.

For those of us who used sync for reddit regularly for years, it’s pretty cheap. But if it doesn’t fit your needs, thankfully you have plenty of other options these days!

We did that for a number of years and they do work OK. Two or three years ago, we finally broke down and bought standalone air purifiers when we had a newborn. I know they’re expensive, but if you get them off season they’re much cheaper. Might consider it if you’re going to be in Seattle for the long haul, unfortunately… They work well, are pretty energy efficient, and are much quieter than the box fans.

These longer-range forecasts should be considered very rough approximations, but it’s hard to see the smoke going away with weak steering currents expected to remain in place through the end of August.

Good thing we’ve still got some N95s in storage!

I think that !seattlemariners@lemmy.world may be more active?

Didn’t even know that this was happening, but glad to see it! (At least in the summers - it’s been a zoo recently and hopefully this will give everyone a little room to spread out!)

Reminds me of the Edith Macefield house, in Ballard (Seattle, WA).

.

If you’re ever in Ballard, I highly recommend the excellent cocktail bar Hazelwood, which pays tribute to her with a namesake cocktail (the Edith Macefield).

They are standard deviations, which is described in the footnote. But yeah, probably better to label that axis.

I would hope so… If you go to a league that has been won by your club 11 times in a row and don’t win a trophy, something has gone horribly wrong.

A farmer coughs in your face, and then you slowly get sick and eventually die.

I think he’ll play like normal. It would be pretty insane to pass up the Bayern offers and then sit Kane for the year. That would (a) guarantee that he leaves next year, eliminating any small hope that he stays, and (b) mean that you’re getting no value for Kane while also getting none of the reward that you would have gotten by selling him now.

I am guessing it’s in the range of £100-125m. Bayern seem to have overplayed their hand a bit, thinking that Levy would feel the need to sell regardless of price, and coming in with multiple bids under the asking price. I wouldn’t be shocked if they blink and pay up, but it seems like Levy may be content to keep him. If he goes for free next year, it’s a lot of potential revenue lost, but Spurs are in fine financial shape (it’s not a Barca situation). And Levy seems to think that there’s some small chance that he stays & signs a new contract, if the year with Ange goes well and he likes the direction of the team. Seems remote to me unless Spurs win the league or something absurd like that happens.
