this seems crazy but i bet it taps into some sort of weird athlete subculture that we, as puny nerds, have no access to.

yes it taps into that strange aversion athletes have to finding themselves suddenly on the ground in a hallucinating stupor. you only have so much readily accessible sugar in your body and if you start nearing the limit of what you have hypoglycemia doesn't gently caress around.

maple syrup is ambrosia. it would be so much better than energy gels and chews.

it's for ultramarathoners and stuff in that context it makes sense

like it might actually be less disgusting than energy gels

"energy gel" sounds like something out of a semi-near-future sci-fi novel

i was laughing about it but then i looked it up because sherpa could just mean 'mountain guide' not necessarily everest guide so i dont know. it's totally possible that he carreied backpacks for white people in nepal. it's essentialy the same thing as working in retail in portland.

when i was a babby my dad passed out from hypoglycemia nad drove into a tree at 45. i was in the back and broke my collarbone, he got multiple compound fractures and ended up losing a quarter of an inch from his right leg.

moral of the story is my dad should have eaten a bag of maple syrup before driving.

Games aka ROMS

Based on my research we think Nintendo's attorneys will kick down our office door if we give out the games so we can't "give" them out...

What we plan to do is integrate the portal to where one could download hundreds of ROMS for free ;)

on the maple syrup thing, that's actually not a bad idea. . . i mean I keep a honey bear in my bicycle bag, maple syrup would also work.

on the stupid nintendo thing, I saw that a few days ago. why do these fucknuts not understand that selling poo poo like that can get them into some hot water.

i will probably buy a few packets once they ship, for emergency use. i had to give someone on my ride yesterday some of my energy chews because he slammed into the wall with 8 miles of uphill remaining. dude looked absolutely miserable. but lol at crowdfunding any product like that.

there is this really weird belief among tech people that if you are sufficiently clever in your wording the law does not apply to you: see uber calling itself ridesharing. it is really one step away from the sovereign citizen craziness

Just wanted to let you know that Nick has actually made a little film about his current camcorder and why he wants to upgrade. I'll post it as soon as he is done processing it.
