Yawn, is it over?

What is the book that changed your views? in c/[email protected]

Sophie's world by Josvein Gaarder and unbearable lightness of being by Milan Kundera.

Read these in my late teen rebellious age, made me introspective and really emo (read: pretentious and annoying) and gave me a philosophical lens and human psychological lens in my relationships with others and with the world.

May not be typically mind-blowing books as they are, but coming in that time in my life, it shaped my world view.

With how RB is designed just for Max, seen with how Perez and Liam struggled, I'd rather he stay at Racing Bull to get a decent finish rather than fight against the car

Me too, not only navigating the overtakes well but tyre management to last to the chequered flag. Top rookie and DotD for sure

I was an early adopter and lover of Evernote. It was a simple proposition, syncing your notes across all devices, and relatively good management system. Used it for school notes, managing life, planning holidays, events etc.

Loved loved it.

Then came along Google keep which did everything, and had a simpler cleaner UI/UX. Made the switch and never looked back. Until now (de-googling)

I guess the trajectory is pretty much the same for all these other companies where they couldn't sustain the growth, and it reached a limit within their reach.

Besides business model decisions, perhaps it's also down to the appetite and ambition of the founder.

that's explains why Red Bull only had 1 working car out on track

Running is BS... (lemmy.world)
 

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

Why is running bs? (lemmy.world)
 

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

This week I particularly hate running because...

Spring time in upon the northern hemisphere, but that brings about the freaking hoard of hovering flies πŸͺ°πŸͺ°πŸͺ°πŸͺ°πŸͺ° 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.

Getting into vlogging - going to watch a Liverpool soccer game at Anfield. (youtu.be)
 

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.
