The market demands that big companies keep growing - shareholders want growth. The big 5 (Apple, Amazon, Facebook, Google, Microsoft) are now so big that there are few new markets that would be worth expanding into. In fact, the only markets that would be worth the effort are those where the current incumbents are national governments. That is, healthcare, education, and defence.

2020 opened a new market for extorting small businesses desperate to stay open who will pay any newly invented, ever-evolving compliance signalling.
Look for the WELL Health-Safety seal https://youtu.be/BHCA-ArBjfs And yes, just pay $2,000 to get the window decal. No performance audit required! If you don't get the window decal, they might come past your shop and give it a decal you don't want... like maybe a star of David or something.

Unfortunately no, this kind of celebrity / politics endorsed (but pay to participate) COVIDSAFE signaling will likely only become more common.

Rebel Sport had a sale over Easter. I spent $250 on compression training gear(2x 3/4 leggings, 2x shorts, 2x shirts(really should've got 4x)). I was getting a lot of attention(females) this morning at training.. maybe a dozen females in class today(there's 11*F45 sessions a day, I go 6:45am).. anyways, apparently my booty is next level.
When I was shopping I had images of how GSP looked when he would train (compression 3/4 leggings, compression shirt), so that was the look I was/am going for. I reckon in about a year I would be indistinguishable from Captain America. Kinda blows my mind I could be a morbidly-obese alcoholic fastfood eating sack and then boom, 12-18months later and 40kgs down and resuming the former glory of a bodytype once forgotten. Picture of GSP for reference I then dislocated(subluxation) my left shoulder being a hero with a modified kettleball sumo to overhead press, rofl. In the last 6months I've done this 4 times. I probably need to get my shoulders looked at, for several years now I bend over to take off t-shirts because if I raise my right hand up and over I will feel an instant numbing/super uncomfortable feeling. Strict seated db press(25kg each side) or bb military press(olympic bar, 20kg plate each side, so 60kg) doesn't seem to hurt me, things like burpies or push ups or pull/chin ups doesn't hurt.. it's if I rotate any movement above my head, especially under load when things start to get dicey. In related news, my old man is going in for a shoulder reconstruction(I forget the technical details) April 15th, he snapped his right shoulder proper good December 18, Xmas and the lockdowns + a bronichial infection has seen this drag out nearly 5months for him. Funny ol' world. Thanks for reading Last edited by wazza : 7th April 2021 at 20:39. |

apologies ^^^ I went off on a tangent(or 2!) and the flow of events was muddled as I edited and inserted picture. I injured myself at training, I'm not the most focused storyteller.

So I've been seeing the Wombo vids posted, and had a play...
First is of course myself but then I thought I'd try (terribly) sketching a face with a ballpoint pen

Most of you musos probably have your DAW of choice already (as do I), and I'm not insisting you change, but I found out that Cakewalk is now free and comes with a bunch of stuff, so it's definitely worth the price.

TIL - What Endor is
So The battle of Endor. Where did that happen?
In the Endor system, made up of a binary star cluster, Endor I, and Endor II. Orbiting this is a Gas giant, called Endor. The planet has several moons, one of which is forested, and called the Forest moon of Endor. Also called Endor. Jesus George. Also, the source of Ewok jerky. |

Strange how we call the third hand on an analog clock a "second" hand.

spent another $240 on compression gear. i think i am covered. i live with a lot of anxiety and because i train 6 days a week i needed to make sure i had a full kit for each day of training. i had to force myself to leave Rebel Sport.
related: certain things you really need to go instore to try on. compression clothing is one of these(those?) things. no masty in the changing rooms, they should have signs for that sorta thing. dis nigga be turned on by himself up in der ;p |

Filthy woman buys a van so she can live in a city which is unaffordable, not realising she could also use it to drive to a town where houses are not so expensive
At least with her stank tang she won't need a bigger bus.

So we were talking about time travel earlier...
What's the chances one day future tourism could be a thing? If we get the tech and if you have the patience, it will be possible to travel to the future. The tech being constant acceleration over time, shielding from high energy particles, life support. Just not back. I wonder what the shortest non-negligible jump forward we could make that was time cost-effective? (Acceleration tolerances, degree of time dilation, length of journey, distance forward.) Spending 10 years to arrive 11 years in the future wouldn't be worthwhile. But some might spend 20 to reach 2000? The rest would be fine tuning. Without learning how to do the maths, I'm guessing there'd be the initial acceleration/deceleration cost to reach sufficient dilation and that would be pretty set. Anything less than that, not worth the journey, more, whatever you arrive to is unlikely to be hospitable to you. If you're lucky you might wind up in a menagerie. We'll no doubt end up sending lots of junk to the future. The tech requirements are much lower if nothing living has to make the journey.

You're traveling in time right now, one hour per hour, and so you're talking about increasing that velocity. Take Interstellar Timelines (like Airlines but with Time, geddit?) and go seven years per hour. Tourism, no. Touring implies experiencing something different but then going back to your life as usual. One way migration, sure. Just don't forget to fill out your temporal passenger arrival card for the immigration department.
