So, should there be an app/service where everybody local around you can share their items at a charge?
Like I need a lawn mower, but I don't want to spend a lot of money to rent one
I'd rather pay a local guy half that or even a third of that, you know?
A thing where I'd broadcast what I'd need, and people who signed up for notifications on a category of items would be notified for it (somebody willing to rent out his laptop etc)
With an EXTREME terms of service, I bet you it could be done within our lifetime

have you ever lived somewhere with a lawn? serious question.
>>2436079
Yeah. I moved out of my parents place

The next question would be: Have you ever rented out something? It's a risky business.

When you lived there, how many times did your parents rent a lawnmower?

It's interesting. I just KNOW that enough people would say "yeah fuck it, I have a spare set of chairs that someone can borrow" for this to be fucking huge, you know?
It'd have to be a lot more than that, though. It'd have to be an app where you can like, share ANYTHING that's legal (this could also cut into airbnb's profits)
People getting into it by selling home cooked food would be seismic

How high are you right now?

the business you're talking about is basically socialism on a capitalist platform
That's commie talk. Wouldn't work.
You see, people are niggers.

Yeah true, renting one instead of just buying one would be dumb lol
But you know what I mean? There's enough stuff out there that people temporarily need but wouldn't necessarily want to buy outright.
I mean bro, understand that this could be used for people playing video games & movies, too. It'd fucking kill redbox
Like I dunno, if something done right this could be huge.
It'll take a while though. After Napster, it took forever for Spotify to be done.
It'll need to ingeniously designed and programmed
they have that already, its called craigslist
Have you looked at Swarm City? It may be what you are looking for. They are releasing Boardwalk on June 15th and the price is going to the moon.
