It came to pass that Calif* banned all plastic bags instead of just free ones.  They mandated only paper.  Plastic bags fit conveniently in the robot but paper does not & $2500 doesn't rent enough space to store a bunch of cloth bags. The paper bags would have to stay folded up & used just for garbage.  This doesn't leave anything to control crumbs. The last cupcake run left crumbs in the container.

A plastic bag ban would have been horrible in the days of carrying things.  Paper bags wouldn't last that distance.  Nowadays, the only things lions carry are outside of bags.

It may be time to just develop a paper bag which conforms to the truck, contains crumbs.  Lions reuse a minimal paper liner nowadays.




Then the mane decreed choc & vanilla protein a failure.  It wants pure choc & $2500 doesn't rent enough space to store 2 flavors.  Caramel flavored protein would make Mane lose its mind.


Sometimes lions still ponder being able to fly without mechanical aids, seeing far away places in the wilderness up close.  That might be the appeal of FPV goggles.  There must be a way to use the 10 year old VR goggles with some kind of flight simulator, even if lions have to write it from scratch. Too bad Goog earth still doesn't have a stereo option.  There is Goog Earth VR for specific licensed devices, not for hackers.


VR goggles don't really do anything new today that the old goggles couldn't do with some kind of improvised bluetooth widget.  In the worst case, the ABS could be scrapped.  The straps & lenses could be repurposed into something with custom displays.

All the bad economic news these days got lions thinking the next layoff is probably going to be without any warning.  It'll be another hunky dory day.  Then there's going to be a call & the lion kingdom will be let go.  Everyone else will discover tough times have returned the next day.  Previous layoffs all had warnings but the current gig is less transparent than anyone else.

 What lions think is happening is index funds are earning interest on large treasury positions.  They're putting the interest into stonks to manetain a constant allocation.  It's not millennials pouring money in the stonk market expecting lower interest rates. High interest rates are pushing up stonks like the 90's.  Millennials are taking money out of the stonk market to buy houses & pay their mortgages.  Important reminder that lions would only barely get by & be fairly unhappy if they retired now, drained their savings to buy a house, & couldn't afford a lot of things they hoped to have.  Lions don't expect to have the coordination required to play it, when the time comes.  Maybe they could just play chords.  Would definitely have to learn how to tune it & regulate it. If lions didn't have to buy a house, things would be better. 40 years ago, bonds were called fixed income because the standard method was to use interest as a sou...

 Don't kid yourself.  US is a 1 party system.  Unless something is drastically wrong with the 1 campaign, they always vote democrat.  Even as bad as H-Rod was, they still voted for her. Ordering renters to provide $25,000 subsidies to new home owners is basically ordering them to pay what was an entire down payment 20 years ago.  Surely if they could afford these entitlements for home owers, they would have bought houses themselves.  They formerly required the high school dropouts to pay $50,000 in student loan forgiveness to Harvard graduates. Calif* requires renters to provide a $150,000 subsidy to new home owners or about the total cost of a house 20 years ago.    Amerikans just want the Calif* way of life for all.  If you don't like how wealth is redistributed from poor to rich in Calif*, you're not going to like the rest of US. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

 Anyways, the next idea was revising the GUI to get rid of the drop shadows, decorations.  The modern trend is flat colors, but the trends have to change every 6 months for these corporations to stay in business. 1 idea that looked good was an apply button in the file dialog which would allow loading files from a bunch of directories or picking 1 file at a time without closing the window.  The trick is most files require building an index.  The file dialog would have to be frozen during the load process or it would have to be locked out of loading again.  It would be a functional but unpleasant experience. The biggest win right now would be repositioning the plugins to the top when there isn't an asset. The lion kingdom considered applying to FUTO for a grant.  The problem is there are so many forks, so many animals who expect a cut even if their contribution never worked, so many animals who would expect a cut for a feature idea in the future which they ...
