Technology helps save time in some ways but may also waste it in others. While technology assists with tasks like travel and cleaning, some new smartphone applications and overly smart technologies could potentially waste users' time and distract them from real-world interactions. Overall, technology provides benefits if used properly, but there is a risk it could start wasting people's lives if the new smart technologies get out of hand.

In conclusion, technology is useful if used properly but can make people lazier and addicted if overused.

Some of Gaudí's most famous works include Park Güell, Palau Güell, Casa Milà, Casa Batlló, and the still-unfinished Sagrada Familia basilica in Barcelona. Gaudí died in 1926 after being struck by a trolley in Barcelona at the age of 74.

Teams of 3-5 people compete by pushing or pulling homemade portable outhouses down the street, with at least one rider sitting on the toilet seat inside.

Official rules require outhouses to be built from solid materials, not exceed 6 feet tall, have 4 sides and a roof resembling an actual outhouse, with a secured open doorway and a toilet seat and paper inside for the rider. Outhouses must be pushed or pulled by hand only, by
Extreme unicycling

In the 1980s, some athletes took interest in the unicycle and started practicing new extreme sports like extreme, street, and trials unicycling. Riders compete in events involving different unicycling disciplines like artistic riding, track racing, and marathons. Competitions have rules like starting after a bell and are held every two years.
Street luge
Street luge is an extreme downhill skateboarding sport where riders lie prone on a small board reaching high speeds. It originated in California in the 1970s when skateboarders found they could go faster lying down. Rules require riders to wear a full face helmet and protective gear while using a padded board no larger than 2.5 meters that lacks mechanical brakes. Races are won by the rider who first crosses the finish line fully beyond it while facing forward in a seated position.
Tuna tossing
Tuna tossing is a sport that began in 1979 in South Australia where fishermen would toss fish onto their trucks. The objective is to throw a 20-pound tuna fish as far as possible. It is now part of an annual festival where participants use a rubber fish in preliminaries and frozen fish in finals. The current record holder threw a tuna 37.23 meters. Rules require competitors to be 16 years or older and throw a fish weighing 8-10 kilograms from within a circle on the grass.
Headis
Headis is a hybrid sport that combines elements of table tennis and football (soccer) where players use only their heads to hit a rubber ball back and forth across a ping-pong table. The sport was invented in 2006 by students in Germany who were looking for an alternative activity when a football field was unavailable but a ping-pong table was free. Key rules are that players must use their heads to hit the ball, can touch the table with any part of their body, must touch the ground after each volley, and sets are played to 11 points with best of three sets deciding a match.
Jai alai
Jai-alai is a Basque ball game played with a wicker basket. Players throw the ball towards a fronton, or wall, trying to score points. The basket is made of woven wicker and wood, weighing 200-600g, and fits in the hand. Jai-alai is played in a fronton, an enclosed court, between 54-60 meters in length.
Chess boxing
Chess boxing is a hybrid sport that combines chess and boxing. It originated in 1978 when boxer James Robinson, an avid chess player, formed a chess boxing club in London. The concept was later popularized in comic books and the first official world championship was organized in 2003. A chess boxing match consists of 11 alternating rounds of 4 minutes of chess and 3 minutes of boxing, with the goal of defeating the opponent through checkmate, knockout, or having more time remaining at the end. It requires both strong physical and mental abilities to strategize in chess while also engaging in physical combat.
Horseball
Horseball is a sport created in Southwest France that combines elements of basketball, rugby, and polo. The goal is to score the most baskets in the opposing team's vertical hoops. It is played on a rectangular field that is 65 meters long and 25 meters wide, consisting of two 10-minute halves separated by a 3-minute break. Serious fouls are punished with a free shot at the basket from 5 meters away for the offended team, while less serious fouls allow the offended team to take a shot at the basket from 10 meters or start play from 15 meters. Minor infractions result in the offended team restarting play from midfield.
Chito
Chito is a traditional Spanish sport played since 1902 where players take turns throwing a metal disc called a tostón at a wooden cylinder target called a chito from a distance of about 20 meters. The chito consists of two conical wooden trunks joined at their smaller bases and has a metal sheet and duck placed on top. Players stand 22 meters apart and determine the starting order by throwing weighted thongs closer to the duck, then take turns throwing the tostón at the chito to knock the duck off.
Chicekn fight
This document describes the informal game of shoulder wars, where teams compete to knock each other over. It is played in swimming pools and lakes, with one person sitting on another's shoulders while using their hands to push the opposing team off balance. Known by different names in countries like Japan, Brazil, and Mexico, the objective is for teams to remain joined while trying to separate the other team, with the last team standing declared the winner.
Cheese rolling and wake(marccos martinez)
The Cooper's Hill Cheese-Rolling and Wake is an annual tradition held in England where a round of Double Gloucester cheese is rolled down a steep hill. Competitors then chase after the cheese downhill, racing to be the first to reach the bottom. There are separate races for men and women, with up to 14 racers in each heat. The event stems from the local tradition of rolling cheese downhill, and participants risk injury as they race down the steep, grassy slope to catch the cheese.
Flyboard
The Flyboard is a hoverboard connected by a hose to a watercraft that allows the rider to fly through the air or water, invented in 2012 by Franky Zapata. It was first publicly demonstrated in 2012 at the World Championship water bike competition in China and has since sold around 2,500 units. A newer model, the Flyboard Air, can fly up to 10,000 feet high and 150 km/h without being tethered via hose but instead uses jet propulsion, with 10 minutes of flight time per use. Safety rules require riders to wear a helmet and those under 14 must have parental authorization.
