So, basically the idea is to make a video game/virtual instillation that unlocks new areas and abilities in the game to incentivise donations. Basically, the game would have a bunch of different content to be unlocked at different thresholds of donations.

The initial idea was something like World of Warcraft (but much smaller scale) where new activities would pop up as money is raised. For example, if someone were to set up a game for a mental health charity, they could set different goals to work for, such as unlocking a raid instance, a pet companion, or a virtual dark ride.

Admittedly, I don't have a clear idea of how to work this out (I'm not a coding guy), but I think it would give a cool way to raise money for a good cause.

Examples: growling/screaming, female/male vocalist, some instruments with really distinct sound like accordion or horns, strong bass or heavy focus on bass (would be of use to deaf people), strong vocals or heavy focus on vocals, lyric language(s).

How to implement? I'm a dummy, I really don't know if there's a better way than users of a music listening app volunteering to tick boxes. I'm just posting because I like metal but I wish I could filter out the songs with screaming. (If my idea is stupid because there's a name for that subgenre pls tell me because I don't know dick about music.)

App should have search option for comments section. There is lot more to reddit comments than post itself.

I never have cash and would be happy to add a few extra bucks to my bill if it went to the housekeeper(s) of my room. When they email you your receipt or if you check out in person (idk if people still do that) just have the Uber option to add a tip.

i.e. if you absolutely hate a certain song or artist, song reminds you of something you don't want to remember, overplayed and now you're super sick of the song, etc.

The app is called ThinQbator, (stands for thinking incubator) and its an idea sharing platform where users can collaborate and brainstorm on invention ideas. We aim to create the best digital environment for idea sharing and brainstorming as possible.

We hope that you join us and be part of a growing community of Idea People, Problem Solvers, and Inventors. On ThinQbator, you can post problems that you want to see solved, share invention ideas, and brainstorm together with other creative innovators!

We would love to hear your thoughts and feedback and if you would like to help us improve or get the word out it would mean the world! You can download ThinQbator on the Google Play and the App Store:

Considering the number of high resolution satellites and the ubiquitous GPS tracking, we could potentially have live traffic maps in the future that are better than Google maps. These could provide live locations of each and every vehicle on the road as points and if these locations are monitored by the car computer, it could reduce traffic accidents especially on blind curves, darkness or sharp turns. Does anyone know if such tech already exists in some basic form?

I was watching the stars and I envisioned a future where everyone wears Augmented Reality (AR) glasses. I thought it would be awesome to have a functionality to share where one looks (eye tracking) with another person. This way I could look somewhere and say "look, theres the little dipper", and the person would see in AR where at the sky I was looking. What do you think, and how far off is this?

Banning fastfood commercials from TV, radio, billboards etc. and replacing with healthier alternatives, promoting a more sustainable way of eating. This will hopefully lead to a higher demand of e.g. green food, and lower the meat demand.

It's well known that people with Alzheimers respond well when they're put into environments that mirror certain earlier decades with which they were familiar when, like the 1930's, 1940's or 1950's. Create zones where people with Alzheimers can be comfortable in surroundings that mirror those decades.

Online marketplace where you can connect with people who can offer mate rates and staff discounts for a small listing fee.

Example 1. You want to buy a new couch, our marketplace connect you to the people who work for a furniture retailer or wholesaler, they can get that item for you at staff discount rates or close to it.

Example 2. You need your car fixed. Our marketplace connect you with bob who can introduce to his mates who is a qualified mechanic to get your car fixed at a steep discount compared to market rate for a small listing fee.

On the off chance you're unknowingly in employment where there is a wage gap, reveal your wage with oppositely gendered colleagues who you believe should be paid the same as you - any differences can be reported to HR or your employer.

Deploy it in all the big subs to start. Everyone who clicks is prompted to join the Smile Amazon charity program instead of being directed to the regular site. We could make a BIG difference in MANY lives. I've been donating to the ASPCA since this program began. Too many people don't know and just post regular Amazon links to reddit all the time. Sadly, I don't have the programming skills.

If someone can make a bot that read my user name, knew what it meant, and then emailed me a pic of Kasie Hunt saying "Based on your user name you'll probably enjoy this," someone can make this happen. And yeah, that's a real thing.

My wife and I share the same Amazon account, which makes it impossible to purchase Christmas gifts (or gifts in general) on Amazon without spoiling the surprise. You should be able to set a unique password in the purchase confirmation screen, and the "Orders" screen shouldn't show password protected purchases.

This would require companies to request a W-2 before an initial salary offer, and Im sure there are other complexities Im not aware of or thinking about. Still, the benefits would be tremendous. People woupd not focus on how mu of their income they are losing, which triggers loss aversion. Peoplr woupd focus less, in general, on how much they are paying in taxes and therefore would be happier with the money they actually make. Plus, as someone who thinks the government has a critical role to play, I like that people may have more willingness to support welfare and public works programs, but Im sure many people will disagree with the value of that aspect.

A the mall in my town the mall will give 10 dollars mall gift-cards if you buy 50 dollars worth of other store specific cards. If one type of card is for Dominoes and I work there, then when I deliver the pizza I pocket the money and pay for it through the register with the gift card I got from the mall. In the end for every 50 dollars I deliver I make an extra 10 bucks. Hows that for a plan.

Hey guys,

I'm a UX designer with a strong interest in psychology. I wanted to make an app that would help people break free of their limiting beliefs, especially the things that are interfering with their happiness.

The basic premise of the app is to get people thinking in new ways. To help anyone struggling with or obsessing over a problem, to step back and be able to reframe their view on life by simply opening the app, witnessing some content, and then resuming their lives with a new frame of reference.

It would be a large undertaking, requiring the aggregation of content, building out a ranking system, possibly a community, etc..

If anyone would like to hear more or any programmers / content creators would like to join me, please send me a message or write something in the comments below!

Found here. This is actually a great idea, and would motivate a lot of people to run.
