There are a lot of reasons in here about how bad reviews kill products, but I didn’t see mentioned how exceptional a product has to be to garner GOOD reviews. A business will get to the point of almost harassing you to leave a good review. In my experience people leave reviews when they are unhappy, and say nothing when they are satisfied.

An example of this was Teenage Engineering K.O. II EP-133 sampler. A bunch got released with broken fader knobs and the wave of bad reviews and complaints flooded in, drowning out the actual pros and cons of the device. T.E. isn’t exactly floundering from it, but in another circumstance that could have killed the product (which I find to be phenomenal).

Practically a nightmare, but as a fantasy kinda cool. Initial D but they are theremin drifting would be kinda sick lol

I think those other guys have it all wrong. You shouldn’t feel pressured to ditch a reliable machine for something that is still being tested. You may want to consider encouraging younger people to invest in those things because commercially valued electric vehicles are really only just hitting their stride. 15 years from now is when people will say “I bought my electric car for 30,000 usd, that’s right, not credits!”

There are much bigger threats to the environment than people driving cars right now, that are simple to solve (but not easy). However, be careful about singing thr praises of the old because others become too wary of the new.

First, I’m just happy that there is a TMBG topic. Nobody ever talks about them and I like them a lot.

Second, John F writes love songs and I’m into it. I’m pretty sure “She’s an Angel” is his “Twisting” is great. With that said John L. Just has really good weird sounds that are pop enough to be palatable. Songs like “you’re on fire”, “dr. Worm”, and I’m pretty sure “the lady and the tiger” is his. To say who’s better is like comparing radio head to the talking heads, they just make different stuff.

Last, thanks for this. I really like tmbg and don’t really get to talk about them with anyone

I added more fiber and water to my diet. It keeps you full.

I got a vitamix and I regularly blend two stone fruit or fibrous fruit (oranges and such) with a bunch of water. I drink it all the time because I love fruit juice. It is less… vibrant than store juice but it tastes more natural and you get all the fiber and water. DO NOT STRAIN IT. If it’s too pulpy add more water, or add less fruit.

Find the nearest store or hangout to your house. Walk/Bike/Jog there every day. You don’t have to buy anything. It helps to become a regular because you can make new friends as well.
