Before the students left Rek, the rakii had been in the process of developing their own AI. At first they were gifted such intelligence by the students, providing washed-down copies of themselves to add to their tech and craft management. But when the need for more personalized AI and general curiosity arose, they went to work, using the student provided AI as a base or reference point. From there, three types of AI sprouted off these projects: • Student AI - Highly valuable, practical holy relics of what remains of the students. These are "purest" AI and are strictly held within Iot's control, only able to function off student tech. There are only 4 existing and 2 remain within the Idle Library. These AI are again, much more watered-down and while are fairly sentient they aren't 100% sapient.
• Hybrid or Steward AI - A mix between student and rakii coding. Since rakii couldn't exactly copy paste the student AI's themselves, what was given, they managed add on it. These AI were specialized and trained to understand the workings of rakii history, and language, while also being able to work on both student and rakii devices. They are still held under Iot control but with special permission, they can be granted to important government official or funded servers. These AI are a tad more self-aware, understanding their purpose and history just fine.
• Factotum AI - Completely rakii made and trained AI. With little to no student involvement, these AI are either standard algorithmic run assistants or commercially used for things like personal computers, phones, self-driven vehicles (mainly rail cars and public transit) or vending machines. Not ALL devices have AI of course, as the general public have a lot of mixed feelings towards, not such distain but prefer to be the only one in control of their tools. On the upside, they are heavily regulated and lack any possibility for self-awareness or sapience. The ones displayed here are two steward AI named Wyrr'Yoii (left) and Booror (right). Wyrr'Yoii is currently housed on the lunar settlement, Wubu maintaining life support and security, taking the avatar of a temperate. They were handed over to the rakii aerospace committee by Iot, which is heavily funded by the city for the investment of seeking out their missing gods. Wyrr'Yoii is described to be standardly monotone and critical, yet easy-going and understanding. They know exactly where their functionally lies and are always willing to lookout for the inhabitants within them. They have long-range communication with ground control, and furthest orbiting station in their system, "The Needle of Shwati" (A Wubu settler checking in with Wyrr'Yoii)
Tumblr media
Booror, is housed within an arctic government building in the Shto Dominion hence taking an arctic avatar. Having accepted trading offers and territory with Iot, they were later granted a steward to keep purpose tabs and documents on community. Ensuring those higher up are up-to-date with any possible trading changes. Though the general public are often wary of this development as recently there has been a project in the works of providing AI with RC units, wanting to see how these AI can interact with the physical world. One unit being an elaborate success, however the reactions of many were generally, "It looks creepy." and it became more of an underground project. (Cartographer Wa'chaa "Quiibii" Iot, speaking with Saiba in their RC unit)

Eames Wins a Bet: Part II
Tumblr media
➡️ Part I
Warnings ⚠️ SMUT 💯
NO minors.
"This isn't fair," Lila said, pouting. She folded her arms and pushed out her bottom lip.
Eames was becoming rather annoyed. Lila could make him so angry, and yet, at the same time, turn him on like no other woman before.
He wanted to toss her over his knee and give her a proper spanking. Then, of course, rail her raw.
Eames needed to tred lightly, however. Showing her any sort of interest at this point would make him lose advantage. And he couldn't have that now, could he.
"Shut your bloody mouth just for once, Lila," he said, adjusting a cuff link.
Arthur awkwardly adjusted his tie, trying to pretend he had not just seen Lila moan.
Lila had lost a bet to Eames. She was wearing a vibrator. And the remote of said vibrator was in Eames' control.
"I don't suppose we could focus on the job?" Arthur asked.
"Sounds perfectly reasonable," Eames nodded. "Don't you agree, Lila?"
She tossed her hair behind her shoulders. "Of course. I'm a professional, unlike you," she said, brushing past Eames.
Eames rolled his eyes and went off to perform his part in the heist. He casually walked towards the restrooms, then diverted down a side hallway that connected to the breaker room.
A few nights ago, Eames scouted out this location. He used city blueprints to determine the layout of the building. And also researched the security situation and found it laughably limited.
All he needed to do was hit the breaker, disconnecting the power to cause confusion and powering off the security system.
Dom wanted one thing. A rare Ming vase that was on display in the galla.
With a flick of the wrist, the breaker was turned off. The lights blacked out, and Eames removed his mobile to switch on the flash light app.
As he removed his phone from his pocket, he heard the vibrator remote hit the floor.
"Damn it," he muttered, glancing around with the light from his phone. After several moments of searching, he heard a crunch under his foot.
Meanwhile, Lila was in charge of swiping the vase. It was small, about six inches in height, easy to hold in the palm of the hand.
She was in the process of slipping the vase from the glass case when the vibrator started.
"Oh, shit," she almost moaned. She had to work fast. She got the vase and handed it off to Arthur. As she did, the vase almost slipped from her hand.
Luckily Arthur caught it and pulled Lila close.
"What's wrong?" He asked, concerned.
"Eames. I'm, oh! I'm going to kill him," Lila said, breaking off from Arthur and trying to find a restroom to remove the vibrator.
She booked it down the hallway towards the restrooms, but she took the wrong corridor towards the breaker room.
Eames was exiting the breaker room when he heard heels coming down the hallway at him. He turned to see the silhouette of a female charging down the hall.
Lila slowed to a halt in front of Eames.
"What the fuck? Where's the restroom?" Lila gasped.
"Why are you here and not at the checkpoint?" Eames asked, confused.
In an instant, Lila slapped him. Eames blinked and was about to ask her what the hell was her problem when she released a sexy little yip.
"Oh, shit, the remote," Eames said.
"Where is it? Make it stop, my clit can't take much more!" She said, trying to dig into his pockets.
"Yeah, I don’t have it. It broke," Eames said, chuckling a little.
"You idiot!" Lila said, now distressed and trying to pull up her dress.
"We don't have time for that, come on. We'll be caught if we linger," Eames said, grabbing her arm.
Eames suddenly heard voices down the hallway. "Time to go, love," he said, taking Lila by the arm and hauling ass the opposite direction of the voices.
The sound of her heels was too loud, so he picked her up and hoisted her over his shoulder.
He ran lightly, deeper into the building, and found some stairs going up. He felt Lila's tiny fists beating his back, but he ignored it until he found a room to hide.
Once safety inside the room, Eames placed her down and then fumbled around for a light switch. Once the lights came on, he went over to Lila, who had already hiked up her dress and was wiggling out of her panties.
She successfully removed the rogue vibrator and tossed it Eames' chest.
"Ow," he said as it hit him.
"Oh, shut up!" Lila said, breathing heavily. "What the fuck, Eames?! You almost made me fuck up the mission!"
"Calm down, everything still went according to plan," he said, placing his hands in his pockets.
"But now we can't leave, or we'll get caught!" She hissed as she pulled her panties back up.
Eames arched an eyebrow.
"Oh? Is the fearless Lila afraid?"
Lila folded her arms and glared. "No, I'm not afraid. I'm annoyed, Ian!"
She almost never called him Ian, so she must have really been pissed.
"You know, you would have been fine with all this if you hadn't lost the bet," Eames said.
"Yes, I would have. But then someone cheated," she snapped.
Eames felt his blood boil, and in an instant, he grabbed her by the wrists and pushed her back onto a red couch positioned against one of the walls in the room.
The room apparently was some sort of private viewing area for a display that was no longer there.
Pinning her down firmly, him firmly between her legs, her dress pushed up and spilling out around her waist.
"Eames!" She squeaked and wiggled with futility.
"I'm so fucking sick of your spoiled brat attitude," he growled.
"If you're so sick of it, then why are you hard?" She said smugly.
Eames could feel his blood pumping, he needed her, and he needed her now.
"Fucking hell, shut your gorgeous little mouth," he said, covering her red lips with his hungry ones.
He raised her arms above her head and used one hand to hold her wrists. With the other, he stroked her very wet and warm, little cunt.
He left her lips and let go of her arms to yank off the panties. He glided both hands underneath her dress, allowing his fingertips to feel her lovely smooth, toned legs.
She allowed her legs to fall open, and he gazed down upon her precious flower.
"Is your cunny too tender," he said, idly grazing his thumb lightly down her slit. She moaned and closed her eyes, savoring his touch. "Or is the little slut ready for a proper fuck?"
She nodded silently, staring as he unzipped his trousers, unleashing his throbbing phallus. Not waiting any longer, he plunged in, dividing her walls and forcing open her void.
Her hot core and honey consumed him, causing a very throaty growl to come forth from his barrel chest.
"Jesus, how are you still so fucking tight after so long, huh? Are you finally telling men no when they ask to fuck you," he teased.
"You're a jerk," she said, pinching his ass.
He chuckled and dipped his head as he fucked her. He felt her rake her dainty fingers through his hair.
When he looked into her eyes again, her facial expression was soft and calm. He couldn't help but slow his thrusting and admire her beauty.
"You okay?" He asked as she stroked his cheek.
"I'm sorry I called you a cheat," she said, softly.
"All in good fun, I know," he said, rubbing his nose over hers.
"Do you hate me?" She asked.
"What? No, I don't. Why would I have my cock buried in you if I did," he said, chuckling.
But she frowned, and he corrected his comment.
"I don't hate you. I get frustrated with you, but I respect you," he said, kissing her cheek and trailing the kisses to her neck.
He flexed his cock inside her and she cooed. He returned to his thrusting, but now, instead of fucking, he transitioned into love making.
Afterward, they sorted themselves out and found a hallway that led them to the back of the building where a fire escape was located.
By the time Arthur and Dom filed out of the building they were surprised to see Eames and Lila waiting for them.
"Where the hell did you two go?" Dom said, sternly.
"And how'd you get outside before us?" Arthur asked confused.
"Don't worry about it. The job's done, the night was successful," Eames said, causally bringing Lila in close to him and kissing her cheek.
She giggled and blushed.
Arthur seemed even more confused. "I thought you two were going to kill each other an hour ago?"
Dom shook his head. "Arthur, don't try to understand the chemistry between them. It will only make your head hurt."

what if the bridge on the river kwai but instead of POWs building a real bridge its a kid building a model bridge painstakingly and instead of [spoilers ig] alec guiness dynamiting it in horror as the 1st train is about to cross its aq hot girl delightedly crushing it right before the virgin rail-assage i meant to say rail-passage but the freudian slip is too good
~~more like the bridge on the river kawaii~~
hmm this gets at the most difficult tension at the heart of crushing toys
because it's really uncomfortable if it's crushing toys belonging to a character who's present, especially if they're a child. and adults who own toys (and play with them, or at least display them in a more interesting way than the funko pop wall of death) are based, and i don't want them to be punished for their basedness. but the scoundrels who look down on toy ownership, who truly deserve to have their toys crushed, well, they don't own toys.
(i suppose iot and similar rubbish is more likely to be owned by normies than cool nerds who know about security risks and can spot a scam, and small appliances are generally second to toys in terms of hotness to crush. but i'm not the juicero sitting anon am i.)
so the owner of the toys can't be a character whose despair is visible, and they can't be my toys (i like my toys! i don't want a girl to crush them.), or rather an observer-standin's toys. if you're importing assumptions from other kinks it's easy to round off to a this being something i want visited upon me or something i want to visit upon others. but that's not really the case and leaning into that can ruin it.
(well, if i really really hated someone maybe i would not mind seeing their toys eaten/crushed, because i am a bad person. but you don't generally, you know, do your kinks with people you really really hate and who don't want your kinks done with them. that's a separate thing and generally frowned upon.)
but it is generally hotter if the toys are like. owned, and she is vandalizing/stealing them. and it's hotter if it's burglary than if it's shoplifting. for unknown reasons.
idk a lot of the time it really is just "don't think about it too much," and then i do think about it and feel very guilty about all the fictional characters whose most treasured possessions my ocs have destroyed and it bums (ha) me out for a while.
i can loophole this somewhat by making the girls like. not understand the implications of ownership for some reason. like a time traveler from a post-scarcity future where people can trivially replicate new toys so telling someone "it's so fun to crush your toys!" in her origin culture is sort of equivalent to complimenting someone's cooking. or making her just kind of dense, or have a very weird value system.
idk it is very hot but like any true tumblrina it is difficult to keep the finger-wagging-geist from interrupting my imaginating.
anyway uhhhh what were we talking about? a model bridge? yeah it's hot if she sits on a model bridge

Check your surroundings for safety
It was either late night or early morning, the difference between the two is so arbitrary and thin. I had just turned the office lights off and locked the door. These twilight hours were nice though, I found an odd comfort to the sound of my steps echoing in the nearly barren car park. Setting my things down in the passenger seat I closed the door and buckled up, safety first. My car is not the newest thing off the factory floor but it does have some nice bells and whistles. The center console lights up and the display is overtaken with the camera feed. A little yellow triangle with an exclamation point and some little white text “check your surroundings for safety”. 
Watching the segmented yellow lines curve with my wheels my eyes drift up and around. A harsh chime snaps my attention back and my foot down on the break. Nearly avoiding an annoying collision with a support column. Thanks little camera. Luckily given the hour of the day I and the security guard were the only witnesses, and he wasn’t much of a talker. Shifting into drive the screen changes to the radio, I leave it off for now. The nice thing about being the last one out is you can kind of do whatever at your own pace. So I grabbed my phone and, keeping a leisurely roll, checked up on anything I’ve missed.
She had been texting me. Nothing serious, I had told her these nights were going to be pretty late. Just something about what the cats were doing, the show she was watching, and a loving goodnight. Checking the time on the phone I figured it was best to not text back. I’d be home soon enough anyway. The most I would do now would be wake her up- a flash of orange causes me once again to slam the brakes. Another wonderful safety feature; my side mirrors light up when something is too close and could also cause a collision. It was Dave. Sheepishly I nodded and waved. He chuckled and returned the wave.
Setting the phone face down on the passenger seat; I ought to invest in a phone holder. I made my way out of the car park with no more distractions. The barriers were raised high and the automated voices wished me a good night.
The city roads were illuminated in an orange glow. Steam rising from the sewer vents and road alike; it must have rained while I was working. Lots of blinking yellow signals made the exit of the concrete jungle swift and painless. The freeway was also empty. I couldn’t be happier. Leaning back in my seat my eyelids were feeling heavy. Really heavy. So I turned the air on and set it to biting cold. I also turned the radio over to something a little more upbeat and heart pumping. Tapping the drums on my wheel it was only a split second of darkness until an alarm snapped my eyes back open and the orange indicators flooded the car.
Jerking the wheel to the left I narrowly avoided the guard rail. My heart was racing. Had I really fallen asleep? Muffled noises were becoming more crisp as the alarm subsided and an automated voice took over. It was a test of the emergency broadcast system, what wonderful timing. After confirming that no cops were going to make an easy meal of me I noticed the passenger seat glowing white. She was calling me?
Answering the phone she sounded relieved. I apologized for not texting back as I figured she was asleep. She mentioned I was coming home later than normal and she was getting worried. There wasn’t a big fight or anything, we were both adults. We did have a nice little chat and exchanged “I love you” before I hung up. My heart was pumping and eyes firmly opened now. So it was clear the car was darker than normal.
Normally, and I swear it just had been, the center console would give off some bits of light displaying the radio and the information about what was playing yadda yadda yadda. It was dark however, but like, that dark when a screen is on but not showing anything. I’m no tech wiz but something must have happened during my impromptu nap as it was back on the camera feed. Nothing was being shown other than that little triangle and the little white text. Maybe my quick movements got some wires crossed?
The rest of the freeway was uneventful; thank God. I turned off onto a little back road. I didn’t live super far away from the city, but enough where I could enjoy the night sky every once in a while. I pulled to the side of the road and put the car into park and got out. She hummed softly as I leaned against her and pulled out a smoke. Talking to myself I improved a lecture about the constellations that I knew and made up what I didn’t. I was halfway into the discussion of the bull when an alarm in the car caught my attention. Dropping the little nub and snuffing it out with my heel I slumped back inside.
It was the backup camera? Man I must have really did a number on it. The best thing I could think was to turn the car off and back on again. It didn’t fix it. Still a black screen with the fun little pyramid and text. This was a problem for a mechanic and a different day. So ignoring the warning sounds I put her back into drive and took off down the road. She kept beeping but I could eventually tune it out. What I couldn’t ignore was now my side mirrors were flickering like crazy. Normally it’s a solid light but they were strobing something fierce. It was really distracting. The radio turned itself back on too! What the hell was going on with my car?
My heart was pounding, the hair on the back of my neck standing on end. Why though? It didn’t matter, I could see the house now. The engine was roaring as I tore down the dirt road like a bat out of hell. Why the hell was I so on edge? Closer and closer. The lights were going crazy and the alarm was so damn loud! I gripped the wheel tight, white knuckled. C’mon c’mon almost home. How had I not reached home by no-
I started going backwards.
I looked down at the center console.
Little yellow triangle and small white text.
Check your surroundings for safety.
I could see the road.

On May 25th 1726 the worlds first lending library opened in Edinburgh by Allan Ramsay
Ramsay was born in Lanarkshire in 1686, and by 1701 had settled in Edinburgh as an apprentice wig-maker. 
At the turn of the eighteenth century wigs were worn by men as a form of status symbol, elaborate constructions of human, goat or horse hair that often fell in ringlets below a man's shoulders, or were elevated to a significant height as a means of increasing their wearer's sense of physical stature. They were expensive products and were created by skilled craftsmen whose reputations rested on their ability to create ever newer and greater objects for their customers to display in public.
By 1712 Ramsay had become a well-known wig-maker of excellent reputation with premises on the High Street,  Royal Mile,  for the richest and most high status customers to buy.
During this time Allan, through his love of reading and literature, became involved with the Easy Club, a cultural group established to celebrate traditional Scots writing. From this association Ramsay began writing, and by 1718 was a successful enough poet to turn his wig shop into a bookshop. Some people have credited Ramsay's early writing with being a major influence on the careers of Robert Fergusson, and later Robert Burns. 
In time Ramsay's bookshop mutated into the world's first organised circulating library, a cultural hub for readers to borrow books, magazines and periodicals and take them away in order to peruse them at leisure, and then return them for other readers to enjoy.
The modern notion of a library providing such access free of charge is quite different from the original circulating library system, where members where charged an annual subscription fee in order to have access to the collections of materials available. The early function of such organisations was not primarily an educational one, as might be expected, but a capitalist one - to profit from those who had money to spend on such memberships. In Edinburgh, the rise of the Enlightenment ideals and the city's relative affluence made Ramsay's library a roaring success, and he was able to spend time focusing on his own writing, penning not just poems but also dramas, his 1725 pastoral play The Gentle Shepherd being performed and celebrated as a work of theatre in his own lifetime.
Ramsay GardenRamsay opened a theatre on Carubbers Close, off the High Street, which was opposed by the religious fervour of the Calvinists, and later forced to close. Ramsay railed against the dour principles of the Presbyterian church in some of his poems of this time. ​​In 1740 Ramsay retired to the house he had built for himself, still seen on the land immediately east of Edinburgh Castle - the cream and orange coloured building at the top of the Royal Mile is called Ramsay Garden, and the central structure - Ramsay's original home - was popularly known during his own lifetime as 'Goose Pie House' because of it’s octagonal shape.
Ramsay died in 1743 and in buried in the Greyfriars Kirkyard, where a memorial on the side of the church building celebrates his life. The statue of Ramsay on Princes Street was carved by John Steell, and ensures that Ramsay is still visibly commemorated in the city where he made most impact during his lifetime.

10 Charming Small Garden Ideas to Spruce Up Your Outdoor Space
Tumblr media
youtube
Transform Your Small Space into a Lush Oasis
Nurturing a garden can bring immense joy and satisfaction. The presence of lush greenery and vibrant flowers can instantly transform your outdoor space, creating a peaceful and inviting atmosphere. Whether you have a small balcony, a tiny backyard, or a compact patio, there are numerous charming small garden ideas that can help you create a beautiful oasis.
In this article, we will explore a range of budget-friendly hacks and creative solutions to help you spruce up your outdoor space, regardless of your gardening experience.
Building Raised Garden Beds
One of the most effective ways to maximize space and add visual interest to your small garden is by building raised garden beds. These elevated planters not only create a defined space for your plants but also make gardening more accessible, especially for those with limited mobility. You can build raised beds using various materials such as wood, stone, or even recycled materials like old tires or wine barrels.
Consider the height, width, and depth of the beds based on the plants you wish to grow and the available space.
Once you have constructed your raised garden beds, fill them with nutrient-rich soil and choose a variety of plants that thrive in your climate. You can grow colorful flowers, aromatic herbs, or even vegetables and fruits. The key is to plan your garden layout carefully, considering the sunlight and water requirements of each plant.
Creating Unique Vertical Gardens
If you have limited horizontal space, vertical gardens can be a game-changer. These innovative plant displays not only add a unique aesthetic to your garden but also maximize the use of vertical surfaces. There are numerous ways to create vertical gardens, depending on your style and available resources.
One popular method is using wall-mounted planters or hanging baskets. These can be easily installed on fences, walls, or even balcony railings. Another option is utilizing repurposed materials such as pallets or old ladders to create a vertical garden.
Simply attach pots or planters to the structure and fill them with your favorite plants.
For a more unconventional approach, consider using a living wall system. These modular panels are designed to support a variety of plants and can be easily customized to fit your space. Vertical gardens not only save space but also create a stunning focal point in your garden.
Decorating with Potted Plants
Potted plants are a versatile and easy way to add greenery and color to your small garden. They can be placed on balconies, patios, or even window sills. When choosing pots, consider the size, material, and style that best complements your outdoor space.
Grouping potted plants of varying heights and textures creates visual interest and adds depth to your garden. You can also experiment with different plant combinations, mixing flowers, foliage, and even small shrubs. Hanging planters are another popular option, especially for those with limited floor space.
They can be suspended from ceilings, pergolas, or even tree branches, adding a whimsical touch to your garden.
Embracing DIY Projects
If you enjoy getting your hands dirty and want to showcase your creativity, there are numerous DIY projects that can enhance your small garden. For example, you can repurpose vinyl gutters into planters and attach them to your porch railing. This modern and budget-friendly hack allows you to grow herbs or trailing flowers in a unique way.
Another DIY project is creating a small fish pond. With a little planning and some basic materials, you can transform a corner of your garden into a tranquil oasis. Add aquatic plants and colorful fish to bring life and movement to your outdoor space.
If you prefer a more minimalist look, consider building an arched trellis covered in trailing plants. This elegant structure not only provides support for climbing plants but also adds a touch of charm to your garden.
Planning Your Garden
Before diving into any garden project, it's essential to plan your space and consider the specific needs of the plants you wish to grow. Assess the amount of sunlight your garden receives throughout the day and choose plants accordingly. Some plants thrive in full sun, while others prefer partial shade.
Additionally, consider the soil type and drainage in your garden. Some plants require well-draining soil, while others thrive in moisture-retentive soil. If your soil quality is poor, you can improve it by adding organic matter such as compost or well-rotted manure.
Watering is another crucial aspect to consider. Some plants require frequent watering, while others are more drought-tolerant. Grouping plants with similar water needs can simplify your watering routine and ensure the health of your garden.

Protecting Your Patio: Tips to Prevent Restaurant Patio Furniture Theft
Tumblr media
Outdoor dining areas are popular among restaurant patrons, offering a unique ambiance and enjoyable experience. However, restaurant owners often face the challenge of protecting their patio furniture from theft. Here are some tips to help prevent patio furniture theft at your restaurant:
1. Choose Durable and Heavy Furniture: Opt for patio furniture made of sturdy materials, such as wrought iron, steel, or aluminum, that are difficult to move or tamper with. Heavy furniture pieces are less likely to be targeted by thieves looking for easy targets.
2. Secure Furniture to the Ground: Use anchor kits or heavy-duty chains to secure tables, chairs, and other furniture items to the ground or to a permanent fixture, such as a railing or fence. This makes it more challenging for thieves to steal furniture or move it off-site.
3. Install Security Cameras: Install surveillance cameras strategically around your outdoor dining area to deter theft and capture footage of suspicious activity. Visible security cameras can act as a deterrent and help identify perpetrators in the event of a theft.
4. Improve Lighting and Visibility: Ensure that your patio area is well-lit during both daytime and nighttime hours to increase visibility and discourage theft. Adequate lighting can make it easier for customers and staff to spot suspicious behavior and deter potential thieves.
5. Train Staff to Remain Vigilant: Educate your staff about the importance of monitoring the patio area for any signs of suspicious activity, such as loitering or attempts to tamper with furniture. Encourage them to report any concerns or incidents immediately to management.
6. Implement Access Control Measures: Control access to your outdoor dining area by installing gates, fences, or barriers that can be locked or secured after hours. Consider using keypads, keycards, or other access control systems to restrict entry to authorized personnel only.
7. Conduct Regular Inspections: Regularly inspect your patio furniture for signs of damage, tampering, or attempted theft. Check the integrity of locks, chains, and other security measures to ensure they are functioning properly and provide adequate protection.
8. Partner with Neighboring Businesses: Collaborate with neighboring businesses, residents, or community groups to form a neighborhood watch program focused on preventing theft and promoting safety in the area. Sharing information and coordinating efforts can help deter criminal activity.
9. Display Signage: Post signs in visible locations around your outdoor dining area warning potential thieves that the premises are monitored by surveillance cameras or that furniture is secured to prevent theft. Clear signage can serve as a deterrent and communicate that theft will not be tolerated.
10. Consider Insurance Coverage: Review your insurance policy to ensure that your patio furniture is adequately covered in the event of theft or vandalism. Consider adding additional coverage or riders specifically tailored to protect outdoor furnishings.
By implementing these proactive measures and investing in security enhancements, restaurant owners can minimize the risk of patio furniture theft and create a safer and more secure dining environment for their patrons and staff. Learn more on how Cove can help keep your business or home secure by contacting us today.

Ascend to Elegance: The Allure of Library Ladders in Modern Homes
Once a common sight in stately homes and great libraries, library ladders are returning as a chic and useful accent to contemporary decor. Library ladders give a sophisticated touch to any area and provide a unique method to access spaces that are difficult to reach. Their timeless charm and usefulness make them a great choice. Let's examine the appeal of library ladders and how they might improve modern house architecture.
Tumblr media
Space-Saving Solution: 
Library ladders offer a space-saving way to reach high shelves and cupboards in today's urban homes when the room is at a premium. A ladder that rolls along a track fixed to the wall or ceiling can be installed by homeowners to maximise vertical storage while preserving floor space. This is especially useful in apartments or smaller spaces where every square inch matters.
Adaptable Features: 
Library ladders are not exclusive to libraries. They can be built in a variety of household locations, such as kitchens, living rooms, home offices, and walk-in closets, to give easy access to storage or exhibition areas. Library ladders are useful because of their adaptability and versatility, whether used to access books and decorative items in a living room display or to reach top cupboards in the kitchen.
Customisation Options: 
Modern library ladders come in various materials, finishes, and styles, allowing homeowners to customise their design to suit their aesthetic preferences and interior decor. From sleek stainless steel ladders with a contemporary vibe to classic wooden ladders with intricate detailing, options are available to complement any design style, whether it's traditional, transitional, or modern.
Statement Piece: 
Beyond their practical functionality, library ladders serve as statement pieces that add visual interest and character to any room. Whether elegantly sliding along a polished brass track or effortlessly gliding on a minimalist black rail, the presence of a library ladder instantly draws the eye and becomes a focal point of the space. Its inherent nostalgia and sophistication evoke a sense of old-world charm, even in the most modern interiors.
Accessibility and Inclusivity: 
Library ladders also offer practical benefits in terms of accessibility and inclusivity. For households with members of varying heights or mobility limitations, a library ladder provides a convenient way to access items stored at different heights without straining or reaching uncomfortably. Additionally, incorporating a library ladder into the design ensures everyone can enjoy equal access to the resources and belongings stored in high or out-of-reach areas.
Installation Considerations: 
While library ladders can be a stylish addition to any home, proper installation is essential to ensure safety and functionality. Working with a professional installer with experience in mounting and securing library ladder systems is crucial, mainly if the ladder will be used frequently or by multiple users. Additionally, homeowners should consider ceiling height, wall strength, and clearance space when installing to ensure a seamless and efficient design.
Library ladders continue to captivate homeowners with their timeless appeal, practical functionality, and versatile design options. Whether used to access books in a home library, retrieve ingredients in a kitchen pantry, or showcase treasures in a living room display, library ladders serve as both a functional tool and a stylish statement piece that elevates the design of modern homes.
