Now when my doctor says to eat more salads I can point to this and load up on steak and chocolate!

When the ad is playing you may see Sponsored X:XX and a little i in a circle in the lower left corner. Click the i. This will give you the ability to block or report the ad as appropriate. It will also show you what category has been associated to you as to why you received the ad, you can say if you want more or less ads of that category.

The iOS mobile app has a bug currently where you need to quit the app and come back after doing this, but it does block the ad and you won’t see that particular cut of the ad again. Unfortunately unless it’s a mid-video ad, or from a channel you’re subscribed to you will lose the video you’re watching as it hasn’t made it into your play history yet. But if the ad was mid-video your video can be resumed via history. For clarity, the video still exists, it’s just hit or miss if the video will be in the curated randomness they present you for you to try starting the video again.

When you’re just shy of a three trillion dollar company big jumps are harder. Plus with the stock up 15% for the month and up 56% for the year people’s, once balanced, portfolios are likely already overly committed to Microsoft based on how it’s performed this year. It’s hard to ignore a stock when it’s performing this well, this consistently, but it puts an investor in a precarious position. If you haven’t already invested based on the AI boom this year has brought, this wouldn’t have been a tipping point. It was a plus, but only a small plus comparatively. The shake up of OpenAI has much more potential for a big sell off for Microsoft than a buying frenzy. This was more silver lining on instability of a big bet Microsoft made.

To be fair, it hit an all time high two trading days before Altman was fired. Luckily the market was closed over the weekend, and the issue resolved in Microsoft’s favor before the market opened. Way cheaper to have the lead and a written intent from 80% of the brains stating desire to follow than having to license an external company.

Wesley Treat made a set that might be more your speed on YouTube.

I assume a piped bot will shortly appear with that link.

Does the Tabasco go on the Doritos? Or in the enema funnel?

You would be correct! Through his influence his name was floated as Hegemon (Figure head ruler of earth) after he had negotiated a ceasefire between world powers. At that point he revealed himself as Peter instead of Locke and that he had to decline the position because he was not yet of age. The rules were changed and the world voted him in anyway. He then spent the next couple books of the Ender’s Shadow series changing that from a figure head position to an actual position of power and unifying the world under one peaceful, people led government, the Free People’s of Earth.

This is the correct response. They gained so much influence through their posting to the nets, that they were able to sway the global politics of their time which is exactly what OP of this thread was claiming Quinn could do.

Does he have a sister? Or a brother who was shipped off to military school at age 6?

Edit: This is an Ender’s Game reference to Peter Wiggin people… The response comments get it. Not sure why I’m downvoted so harshly and they’re upvoted.

The Man Who Would Be King (1975)

The way companies do it is a lot of napkin math. I worked next to a team that built a service to help other companies figure this out (I provided the sample code and docs they share with customers for onboarding). You plug in some basic info, as an example this building used X kilowatt hours of electricity that the power company says is 10% coal and 90% hydro, which, based on a lookup table that means Y tons of CO2 emissions per hour, add X*Y to your total and move onto the next building. It’s not an exact science measuring actual emissions, more looking for ballpark numbers trying to get rough estimates based on what sustainability consortiums agree is the emission rates for certain things/activities/events. It doesn’t matter if your X is slightly more efficient than your neighbors X, because your maintenance guy is better, both will get the “X” rate for emissions based on the agreed upon value for the thing being measured. The idea is to capture as many things/activities/events as possible to get an estimate of emissions, not a measurement.

Why couldn’t she have been the other kind of mermaid, with the fish part on top
