  @BrowningFnA5 How old is that unit? Reason I ask is a lot of wiring on vehicles and possibly heavy equipment use a soy based wire insulation which acts as an attractant to such. Solution, get some Bitrex (or similar) on Amazon for less than $30 a gallon and follow mixing instructions. You can use a simple pump sprayer. I had this problem with my F250. Dealer has a big sign in the service bay about this. They want to charge about $100 per application. Why not just stop putting soy in the insulation. Same with Christmas lights and squirrels chewing of the light fixtures and taking them back to their nests.

  @thsottiaux ChatGPT Work took over a live Amazon Seller Support chat over $82.50, then stopped monitoring despite explicit instructions. The chat expired. A fresh Work browser now blocks Seller Central, with no ETA or workaround. It caused the failure, then removed the way to fix

  @SOOPLLC My advice after routing for many, many decades and not having a traditional publisher: there are two routes when it comes to publishing. You don't necessarily have to make them mutually exclusive but you either get published by a publisher in some scenario or you self-publish. There are different versions of each one. My recommendation is to decide upfront what you want to do, which route you want to pursue. Again you can do both but you've got to put time into whichever one you decide to do because if you're going to do traditional publishing then it requires a different approach for that. You need to: - draft your book - write your books - do a rough draft - write them - get it to a final draft - get better readers - get it in front of editors - get it in front of companies That means sending out manuscripts to many publishers and waiting forever. The alternative is self-publishing. I struggled with this for a long time. I didn't want to spend six years of my life writing and just dumping my manuscripts out to different publishers, hoping someone grabbed it. What I did is I just said, "You know what? I'm on a right for the passion of writing and I make money off of it. Don't get me wrong but that's not the reason why I do it." I don't make a whole lot off my writing right now and I may never find with that but I finally had to decide that my passion is writing, not publishing. What I started doing is I'll write the books. I believe in the snapshot theory so I don't ever try to make my work perfect but I make it as perfect as I can at that point in my development. I'll write a book, I'll get it edited, and I'll normally go through about three drafts over time. I'll take breaks from it. After the rough draft, when I feel like it's ready to publish, I put it on Amazon KDP, drop it into Select, and leave it. I'll move on to another book. I try not to obsess over it. Some of them grow, some of them don't. Some of them, months down the road, will finally get some traction and I'm not a big-name famous author by any means of the stretch. I have very few readers in fact but I've made some money off of it and I've got some growth. I've had quite a number of reads and some of my stuff takes off, some of it doesn't, but it's just the fact that I have a passion for writing. My recommendation for an aspiring author is to decide which route you want to take and gear up to pursue that route with vigor because if you get consistent and keep pushing, you never know what will happen.

  I mean I agree, but I think this is a wider streaming problem than just Marvel. Apple, Amazon, HBO etc. all seem to have moved toward this model, where writers have less creative authority and there’s no real showrunner running the whole thing

  Tiger Global didn't dump AI. It moved down the stack. The Aug. 14 13F shows Q2 cuts that look violent: Alphabet 10.63 million shares to 5.81 million, about 45%. Broadcom roughly halved. Netflix gone. Nvidia, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta all trimmed. Then two new lines appear — about 675,000 AMD shares worth ~$392 million, plus a small SpaceX stub. Alphabet is still a top holding near $2.1 billion. This is rebalance, not a white flag. Here's the thing: platforms still fund the capex, chips still bill it. Tiger kept Nvidia huge, doubled Intel, and bought the challenger GPU. Holder counts rose in both Alphabet and AMD. The next tell is cloud margins and who actually wins the rack, not one 13F headline. They sold some of the bill-payer. They bought more of the invoice. Source : Yahoo Finance #TigerGlobal #AMD #Alphabet $GOOGL $AMD

  @azkadelya @amazon Amazon is terrible anymore. They do not care about their customers in the least bit... I know growing up people hated on Walmart because they hurt small businesses, but lately they've had the best customer service amongst every service I've ever used. it's crazy.

  @ModernDayCrimes @DangerousThinkg 1,000% correct! Most folks don't understand that digital meters can be used to 'throttle' home use - even if owner didn't agree to it. 'Smart' homes are horrible as well. News stories about elderly deaths in Europe and places like SoCal when power grid was browned out from high temps overload. News story about black Microsoft engineer who completely converted his house to 'smart'. An Amazon delivery driver falsely accused him of some sort of untoward comment and Amazon shut his entire house down with no notice. Including locking him out. Plus, Chinese law requires every microprocessor made there to have a 'backdoor' access built in. Every internet connected 'smart' appliance is a built in window to 'pattern of life'.

  @JohnBWellsCTM @stevendenoon I recently bought a classic book on Amazon. The typeset was awful, the pages had paragraphs misaligned & terrible readability. It was published in Venezuela w/out original copyright info. How can this be? Since hearing JBW talk about the destruction of books, I KNEW what it was

  @RhodesFi32898 @Lord_Sugar Amazon is not a supplier but a market. So QoS remains a problem for this fantasy model.

  @applepay has been nothing but a headache due to a lost phone years ago. The problem is I need it to use my @Apple account, but I have never used it for anything else, and apple does not seem to protect my account from unfamiliar devices or locations, like Amazon and banks do.

  @ThoughtCrimes80 There's always 1-4 accidents as well. Last time I went down 2 weeks ago, and Amazon truck smashed an exit divider. It was 1 ******* lane for a 1/2 a mile.
