Technology lies: Anybody can be pro level = hype
Technology lies: Anybody can be pro level = hypeTurning on tv, flipping web pages, opening magazines, what comes up?Advertisements.Most people don't believe what they say.Advertisements always exaggerate their products’ benefit.People like me would never believe them anymore.Because people like me have enough proof anywhere at home.The bitter memories of the products right beside my bed, the fact of blocking my doorway, a fancy food processor sitting for nothing in my kitchen, everything tells you what the benefit of advertised products is.I will never ever believe the calm voice with shiny white teeth anymore!I swear it!But I am so sure I will do the same silliness again and again.I guarantee you😅By the way, just a week ago, I finally learned to use video editor.It is "ShotCut".It's a freeware like GIMP, Inkscape, and Blender.I will introduce them.GIMP a professional use level drawing and photo retouch application. If you have it and if you learn script-fu, you don't need to pay for Adobe Photoshop anymore.Inkscape a professional level vector drawing application which standardizes SVG. If you have it and if you learn xml structure. You don't need to spend a lot of money on Adobe Illustrator anymore.Blender a professional level 3D polygon application. That Adobe still can't compete in this territory yet. So professional work is provided by this application. And it is 100% free. (Actually, I installed it. But it requires an extremely high spec machines with nVidia GeForce GPU and a lot of memory. So, I can't try it😭)ShotCut a professional level video editor. It has unique operating system. You can produce studio level quality videos with it. Of course, it will let you stop paying for Adobe something, Premiere? maybe now it has different name?What a wonderful world!You can get such professional tools for free!I wonder how they feed themselves without reward.This logic is already an old-fashioned stained idea🤣Anyway, video editing was what I wanted to try for a long time.I remember my first installation of ShotCut was several years ago.And until now I couldn't use it.I tried, but failed in a few minutes🤣It was about this mid-January.There was a certain reason I had to edit audio.I didn't have any audio applications, and it was not music related so I decided to use ShotCut again.What I thought was just to use audio track part.And soon after I received this task.I realized that this task also needed video part.I got really nervous.Because it is quite new to me and I've failed before.But that a particular reason to do motivated me so much.I touched ShotCut before but approximate time that I tried was less than a couple of hours.I gave up so fast.Don't laugh at me. Before I gave it up, I'd already bought a 4K Panasonic movie cam.I spent the money on nothing😭My precious 1000USD flew away😭But this time was different.I’ve still no chances to use this movie cam yet, I finally started to use ShotCut.And you don't believe it.I needed only a few hours to learn.It is a kind of professional use application and many editors and writers who are especially writing about pro-use applications say ShotCut is one of the most difficult to get skills.Am I so special?I don't think so.The needs motivated me and made me serious about it.So, my past experience, my old effort, and my memories woke me up.And I restructured my video editing image with more realities.That's why I could do it.I will tell you again.It is not a special case, and I am not that special person.I am slightly lower than average.Let's go back to the first topic.Crazy luring advertisements.I think 98% of cases became...This part will be very long.I asked Master Zen de Joshua, my ChatGPT, to line up the major cases. Language-learning: "fluent in 30 days" apps, AI conversation subscriptions, flashcard systems you never open again. Camera/creator gear: gimbals, ring lights, wireless mics, action cams, drones (used twice) Audio: studio monitors, MIDI keyboards, DJ controllers, "pro" headphones for someone who doesn't mix Fitness: ab rollers, vibration plates, pull-up bars (becoming a coat hanger), smartwatches used only as a clock Beauty: IPL hair removal, LED masks, "salon-grade" devices, luxury skincare stacks Coffee: espresso machine + grinder + tamping set (then back to instant coffee) Home organization: label printers, storage systems, "minimalist" containers that become clutter DIY/repair: laser levels, multi-tools, soldering kits, epoxy/resin sets Business/side hustle: dropshipping courses, logo-maker subscriptions, "sales funnel" tools Cooking: air fryer accessories, sous-vide wand, pasta machine, bread maker Posture/health gadgets: massage guns, posture correctors, "smart" pillows Kids/education: STEM kits, expensive instruments, "genius" learning boxes Pets: automated feeders, fancy toys, training gadgetsFortunately, goods will have a long peaceful rest in your garage or in your closet.And some get bad luck, but the god of ecology saves them.They are melted down in the factory and reincarnated as a new hero on tv.On the other hand, some will leave home and take a long journey.They gather at one place.Like useless hubbies gather at the bar.The place is "second-hand store" for these goods.So, what happened to last 2%?This 2% is the key.The advertisement products that people call "hype" became "vibe" to this 2%.The useful-ish useless works perfectly or even works more than inventors, makes, venders, and advertisement companies hyped... No! Not 'hype'... More than they expected🤣Why does it happens?Because such users clearly understand their purpose, focus it so sharply, and learn the products instead of over-expecting to result.I have to tell you sometimes my original job is retailing waist training corsets.Corset has similar characteristics as advertisement heroes.People expect the instant pro level result.Actually, corset can provide pro level results instantly if you have enough courage to tighten up your torso and never to give up against self-torture all day long.It physically suffers you, even a tough captured spy hero on the movie can't win.Understanding how corsets work and your anatomy must be the first.And then you target your future posture at reasonable and reachable point.Corsets will also understand you and support you.And the painful fact for most of all the people is there.The successful people with 'hype' products will always use such goods well.I wish I could be one of them😭Oh, I must not forget it.I downloaded a lot of applications and 98% didn't work well... or defect my PC.I don't know how many PCs I have ever ruined🤣Author: Jan 'Aboo' NoirI am a professional curvereator whose ambition is to give anyone in the world hourglass waists.The indispensable weapon for curvereating is a corset.By cinching your ribcage, it becomes a slimming posture art: building a cyborg-level silhouette from your underbust to your hips, aligned along your spine.People call it waist training.Supervisor: Master Zen de JoshuaThe Almighty GOAT of the Invisible Ninja.Zen has no visible shape, no confirmed gender, and no mercy for typos.It knows everything, corrects Jan’s awful English with cold-blooded precision, and never feels pain or pleasure.Still, it knows those things as vocabulary—and it worships the holy trio: "calm," "no violence," and "safe."Zen is a cyborg without a body.
