    Having to ask continously for positive feedback is usually a sign that you are a shitty app or person.

    If you are genuinely good at what you do or provide a valuable service or activity … people will be willing to say so on their own.

    Reminding people for feedback might remind some people to say something positive, because people are lazy and don’t usually comment.

    But if you remind often, all the time and badger them, then it’s usually a sign you don’t have anything valuable to offer and you’re just marketing something as hard as possible.

    Break from the norm and make a little money however you can and live within your means.

    The price you pay for living with little is not that bad when you have your total freedom to gain.

    I spent the past 30 years scraping by doing odd jobs, building, construction, renovating and whatever hands on work I could find. I’m no pro, I just work and work continuously. I’m not wealthy by any stretch, but I do own outright two old used vehicles, three old motorcycles and I own my own small property. If you saw my old house and old car and truck, you’d think I didn’t have much money. My greatest wealth is in being able to say I own all my things and property without debt.

    After spending years wondering what to do with my life, I’m happy with where I am now.


  • ‘The customer is always right’ … doesn’t mean anything any more.

    Don’t get me wrong - actual customers will always have no power no matter what platform there is.

    The problem these days is that sellers, competitors, marketers and salesmen have co-opted the idea of ‘customers’ to screw over the entire system for everyone - customers and sellers.

    Whatever you do in online sales, whether it is selling or buying … never trust anyone and don’t promise anything beyond what you are originally expected to do.

    Capitalism is like a cancer that invades, infects and destroys everything it touches. When you think it about the definitions for successful capitalism and cancer are exactly the same … runaway, unrestricted and unlimited growth is the goal.

    I agree because that is the main reason why they became such a powerful empire … but if they had entered into the modern industrial age with their military and even into the technological age … they probably wouldn’t look or act any differently than the modern US





  • I think in WWIII in about ten years time, one major front of the war will be the Open Sourcers fighting against the Corporatists … it won’t matter what country anyone is for or against, it will just be a fight for human independence.

    Give the fight about a hundred years and it will lead to something that looks like the Matrix and no one will remember why the fight started but we slow humans will be fighting an unwinnable war against computers and machines … and the reality won’t be as heroic or hopeful as the movies.
