@Typo-MAGAshiv I'll remember to do that from now on then. Seems the interface used to break up the block-of-text look with a single carriage return. Now, what would leave blank space to the end of the line, ignores the return character and starts the next sentence on the same line. Result: block-o'-text looking nothing like what got typed out.

Maybe I need to insert hard paragraph breaks using an empty line between?

That's how I've always done it, and I've had zero issues as far as that goes.

On mobile, it seems like line breaks disappear, making a long post with normal formatting effort, end up a block o' Text once posted. Not sure if something changed in the back end, cause this didn't seem to be an issue till recently. Maybe I need to insert hard paragraph breaks using an empty line between?

@SamuelAnders I was in my early 30s when my old boss died and, fed up working at dysfunctional companies, started my own on a shoestring. (Auto repair. ) What I had going for me was strong niche knowledge and talent, and a clientele that liked and trusted my "product. " Honestly, being the boss/owner can become all consuming of your life and time. The independence and autonomy, come at unstinting demands upon you. If you have the talent, drive, and importantly, shipping product, it can all be more rewarding than a life as a cog in someone else's machine. Being the boss, isn't all sitting back watching others do all the work while you count and bank all this fuck-you level of money rolling in. I can't offer much about the model of investors and lead time for development. Investors don't fork over money and hide, they bring demands of input on the products and development. Investors can come at a cost to your autonomy. All these caveats aside, if you have the vision and drive to make it work, it's inevitable you will forge your way in to actualizing these into a working enterprise. NGL, long days at Starfucks, is a fantasy holding pattern, nothing at all the life you have once you jump into the entrepreneur game for real.

@MentORPHEUS that's Sandman. He's apparently a big name, legendary even, in MGTOW circles, like Terrence Popp, Aaron Clarey, Turd Flinging Monkey, Better Bachelor, and others I forget. WAATGM subreddit founder Kevin32 got all excited when he thought one of the requests to access WAATGM when we went private for a bit was from him (never found out of it was actually him or not).

I agreev with you about his customer service rep voice and uptalk. I've heard his normal speaking voice when he's been a guest on livestreams, and it's not the least bit annoying. For some reason, he always does his prerecorded stuff like that. *shrug*

@Typo-MAGAshiv decent video. What is up with the narrator's inflection though? Not a native English speaker or what? I can't stand listening to so called Uptalking, which is usually a female affliction. I'll assign this as a male homologue for the moment, cause it sounds a bit gay.

turned iconic Gramophone advertisement

BMG music group or whatever!

They and Columbia House used to do that "15 CDs for 1 penny!" bait-and-switch trap back in the 1990s.

I joined one of them at 12 or 13, and received numerous CDs. When it came time to pay for the ones that weren't free, including all the "monthly selection" CDs they'd automatically send once a month if you didn't return the card declining it, the bill was pretty high.

...and my mom beat me to the mail that day.

She got me out of it easily enough by calling them and telling them I was a minor and couldn't legally sign a contract.

But she took away a lot of my CDs, which I never got back.

I don't know how she missed the "Use Your Illusion" both I and II CDs from Guns N' Roses, though. Heh.

@Vermillion-Rx This is a famous 1898 painting turned iconic Gramophone advertisement, entitled His Master's Voice. The announcement I replied to, brought this to mind. Nothing more to read into it than that. ;-)

@Bozza

If your GF is a stripper, Brings to mind the cautionary tale of a co-worker back in the 90s, and his rather drawn-out process of going from the frying pan of divorcing his mean, fat, ugly wife, to the fire of getting a mad crush on one of the strippers at the club he was hanging out at till the wee hours every night. As strippers are wont to do, she monetized the fuck out of his misguided affections, started taking cash draws against his next paycheck, then rage quit when payday came and he was well into the red after tax withholdings got figured and his ex started aggressively dunning him for the alimony/child support due. No idea what happened to him after that. Guys, these are not footsteps you want to follow.
