2024.05.17 11:33 TrelisResearch Fine-tune Multi-modal Video + Text Models
In this latest video, I describe how a (good) multi-modal image+text model can be used to describe and chat with videos.
In brief: 1️⃣ Set up an IDEFICS 2 endpoint 2️⃣ Clip your video into images (~1 second apart) 3️⃣ Send in the images + your text queries to the endpoint.
You can take things further - and improve video performance - by generating synthetic video datasets. Here's how to create a row of data:
1️⃣ Clip a video into images (~1 second apart) 2️⃣ Get description of each image (one at a time) from a multi-modal language model 3️⃣ Feed all image descriptions (in one prompt) into a strong language model and ask it to provide a "video description" BONUS: Additionally feed in the video's captions - for added context.
With this type of dataset in hand, you can fine-tune a multi-modal model for your video applications.

2024.05.17 11:17 No_Television_4004 I noticed my smell is decrease when sick
I have been unwell with a cold or flu and I have noticed my odour has decreased. I remember this happening last year too. Since 70% of our immunity is generated in our gut, could this be linked to the smell decreasing? It’s s just very interesting and thought i’ll pop it on here for conversation.

2024.05.17 11:02 Apprehensive_Dog5431 Discord Images to OBS/Twitch stream
I've been looking for something like this for a long time and I am astounded and frustrated nobody has made anything like this. I found plenty of people asking for this, but no one actually showed a solution.
I stream with friends on twitch as we are in a discord call, and they will often post pictures in discord, but there was no way for me to easily show the picture on stream without toggling the entire discord window so twitch chat can actually see what we are talking about. What I wanted was some way for it to be automated, at least as much as possible.
Through the use of a custom discord bot, I was able to make something work.
Before I get into how to make this work, let me briefly explain how it works so you can tell if this is something you're willing to do. I will be highlighting all areas you need to fill out. The rest is mostly copy paste.
Discord Bot has reading access to a discord channel of your choice>a code tells the bot to monitor this discord channel for image links and image attachments>Upon detecting a new image, the bot will edit an HTML file somewhere on your computer with the link to the image along with some other things to make it readable for OBS>OBS uses that HTML file as a local browser source.
The only potential issue here that can benefit from some improvements is the source will not properly update unless you hide and then unhide the source. If its already hidden, simply unhiding it will prompt the correct image. (Just be sure the source has "Shutdown source when not visible" enabled, to allow it to update and take less resources while not visible) I simply made this a hotkey to easily toggle the source, however there is a way to create an OBS script that will automatically hide the source after a period of time, and reveal it upon updating, I was unsuccessful in this though.
To get this to work, you will only need to create 2 text files, paste some code, and change 3 lines to match your details so it properly links to the correct channel, bot, files, etc. I will highlight these things so you wont have to go searching.
1. CREATE YOUR DISCORD BOT
-Go to https://discord.com/developers/applications -Hit "New Application" at the top right, accept terms and name it whatever you want. -On the left under Settings/Installation be sure User Install and Guild Install are checked. -Navigate to the "Bot" tab on the left and turn OFF "Public Bot" and turn ON "Message Content Intent" -Head over to the "OAuth2" tab on the left. -Under "OAuth2 URL Generator" You will see a big list of "scopes" All you need is to check "bot" -A new portion will be revealed called "Bot Permissions". For simplicity sake since you can give it "Administrator". If you are concerned about security, you can check off only what would be needed like read messages and maybe read message history. This area you will have to experiment to see what is absolutely needed. -Copy the generated URL and paste it into your browser and select what server you would like to add it to. -Once added it should have all the needed permissions to do its job, but double check roles and default permissions to make sure its not conflicting with anything on your server. -Go back to the "Bot" tab on the left and hit the "Reset Token" button. You will be given a code. (Copy and paste this somewhere for you to refer to later.)
2. PYTHON (DONT PANIC) You barely need to mess with it.
-Head over to https://www.python.org/downloads/ and download the latest version. -When installing, make sure to check the box that says "Add Python X.X to PATH" during the installation process. This ensures that Python is added to your system's PATH environment variable, allowing you to run Python from the command line. (Just stay with me here, its not as bad as it sounds) Otherwise if you don't see this, its fine.
-Open Command Prompt as an administrator.
-Create a new text file and name it "discord_bot.py" (Be sure to change the file extension from .txt to .py) -Right click the file and hit "open with" and select notepad. -Go ahead and paste the following code into the file:
'YOUR BOT TOKEN HERE' 'YOUR CHANNEL ID HERE' -and- 'YOUR TEXT FILE PATH'
-You need to replace these. Refer to your token you saved earlier and paste it in place of YOUR BOT TOKEN HERE. When you replace it, it should still have the (') at each end. Example: TOKEN = 'adnlkn34okln2oinmfdksanf342'
-For the Channel ID, head over to Discord>Settings(cogwheel bottom left)>advanced and turn on Developer Mode. -Head over to the Server where you want OBS to grab from and where you invited the bot. -Right click the text Channel you want OBS to grab pictures from and hit "Copy Channel ID" -Go back to the text file with the code and paste the ID you just copied place of YOUR CHANNEL ID HERE. (again make sure not to delete ' ' in the process.
So far we have the Bot Token and the Channel ID done.
-We need to create another text file. Create one and find a place to save it where you'll remember it. Somewhere like your documents folder will work fine. -Name it whatever you want, but be sure to save it as a .HTML file, rather than a .txt file. (for the sake of the tutorial, lets assume you named it "showimage.html" ) *-*Right click the html file you just made and click properties -Here you can see the file "Location". Go ahead and copy it. -Go back to that discord_bot.py file and replace YOUR TEXT FILE PATH with the address you just copied.
HOWEVER: BE SURE TO ADD EXTRA SLASHES TO THIS. I DONT KNOW WHY BUT ITS NEEDED. Example: TEXT_FILE_PATH = 'C:\\Users\\YOURNAME\\OneDrive\\Desktop'
There. The code is finished so go ahead and save it. Now you need to implement it into OBS
4. OBS BROWSER SOURCE
-Go ahead and open OBS. Go to your desired Scene and create a new Source, and make it a Browser Source. -I made the width and height 600x600, but you can adjust it once we get a picture on screen. -Toggle ON "Local File" and "Shutdown source when not visible" -For the local file, browse your computer for that "showimage.html" file we made earlier and select it.
5. (FINAL) LAUNCH THE BOT
We are almost done. You will have to launch this bot every time you want this image thing to work, so maybe save this last part on a note.
-Type CMD in your start menu on windows. -Right click "Command Prompt" and hit "Run as administrator" -Navigate to where the discord_bot.py file you made was saved. You can do this by typing "cd" followed by the address and hitting enter
Example: cd C:\Users\YOURNAME\OneDrive\Desktop Enter\*
-Then type: python discord_bot.py Enter\*
You should see a few lines of text that say: "Logged in as (whatever your bot name is)"
You're done!
When someone posts a link to an image, or uploads one directly to your desired channel, the bot will create a link for the obs source to refer to, and it should pop up in your scene, assuming its visible. If you still dont see anything, try restarting OBS and or go into the source properties, scroll down, and click the "refresh cache of current page" button at the bottom. Keep in mind the picture will not update unless you force the source to refresh somehow. If you dont want to keep going back to obs to hide/unhide the source to update it, you can set a hotkey to it, create an OBS script, or use a separate program like streamerbot to automate the process to your liking.
This was a huge pain in the ass to do, and I dont want anyone to go through what I did, so I wanted to have it all in a janky guide to get people started. Also I made it so the pictures have a minimum and maximum w/h size so small images arent so darn small, and big ones dont take up so much space. You can adjust this in the .py file, just be sure to close command prompt and start the bot again for the changes to go through.
Please let me know if you guys have any questions or suggestions, and Ill try my best to help/ respond. I hope someone makes use of this and it pops up in search results because I couldnt find anything like this anywhere.

I’m on cycle 180ish i have a stable sustainable base and i want to make a petroleum boiler. I saw a QCfungus tutorial and he links 5 petroleum generators to the petroleum boiler but doing this will only leave you with the 1kg per second of the slicksters will it break if i link only 4 generators? (i need the petroleum for plastic and jetpacks)

2024.05.17 10:46 SE_Ranking Starting an SEO agency: Hard-Won Secrets for Success
We recently spoke with Anthony Barone, Co-Founder & Managing Director of StudioHawk UK, about the challenges of launching and running an SEO agency. Anthony shared his journey from being an SEO outsider to becoming the Head of the UK Headquarters for an Australian digital SEO agency. Throughout our conversation, we explored the challenges, opportunities, and strategies of starting and running an SEO agency in a competitive market.
In this article, we will draw from Anthony’s direct personal experience to provide key tips for starting an SEO agency. We’ll also cover some major pitfalls to watch out for.
Key tips for starting an SEO business:
Starting an SEO agency goes beyond understanding SEO. It’s also about understanding the market, identifying competitors (and how you differ), and building partnerships. Anthony took these exact steps when launching his SEO agency in the UK. He believes everyone should apply them when setting up an SEO business.
Network to build a client base and partnerships
Start your SEO agency with networking. Become more active in the community and build relationships to find your first few clients. Join networking groups, attend business meetups and events, and start booking introductory calls with potential prospects.
Define your competitors
Research major players in your market, including competing agencies and potential partners.
Since the SEO field’s barrier to entry is pretty low, your chances of finding a mix of large agencies and smaller firms are high. Identify the ones you can emulate. Note their operations, capabilities, client portfolios, and how they position themselves.
You should also closely analyze the market you’re entering. When Anthony expanded his agency to the UK, he discovered one of the most competitive and knowledgeable markets, and the competition there wasn’t just limited to other agencies. The UK is home to many reputable brands and adept in-house teams. This means you need to know your stuff and prove your expertise. Anything less and you won’t have the opportunity to speak with or win the business of bigger companies.
Excelling in competitive landscapes like SEO necessitates brushing up on your field, your goal, and the value you bring, and devising a standout SEO strategy that resonates with your client’s business goals.
Differentiate your agency
StudioHawk initially set itself apart by skipping the traditional account manager middleman. The company instructed its SEO specialists to work directly with clients, providing expertise straight from the source.
There are also many other ways to stand out:
Map out your ideal client
Here is why StudioHawk made the strategic decision to focus on the small-to-medium enterprise (SME) market (when launching in the UK):
Hiring and training new talents
Build your agency’s SEO team with candidates who align with your company culture and match your core values. Don’t just focus on technical skills. SEO expertise is an important skill but can be taught without much friction. Training culturally incompatible employees to have the right mindset and attitude is much harder.
Be patient and discerning. Consider the candidate’s energy and soft skills during the SEO interview process. Integrating candidates into your team is easier if they mesh with your philosophy and vibe.
Developing clear frameworks
Provide hands-on training and set clear systems and frameworks for your team. People need to be told what to do, what their job is, how to do it, and why they are doing it. Lack of structure leads to inconsistency, low-value work, and misalignment with client expectations.
Craft clear job descriptions with set responsibilities, metrics, and each role’s expected outputs. Your overall order of operations can be as loose or hardline as desired, but create a guidebook, rules, and criteria around it. Resources like these help new hires understand their role and responsibilities.
Always stay on top of SEO
Clients value experts, so you must constantly grow by following new trends and updates, and learning from industry leaders.
Make ongoing education and collaboration part of your core values. Here is how Anthony’s team implemented this:
Share wins and lessons
Share knowledge internally. Learn from your colleagues through:
Adapt to search evolution
SEO is going to get harder. With EEAT, SGE, and algorithm updates, SEO professionals who want to make a bigger splash must work harder to improve their content and quality.
For example, SGE is already altering the SERP landscape. Its AI-powered responses include links to Quora and Reddit. This means you should consider socials as additional traffic channels. SGE snippets vary across industries, especially in ecommerce, indicating the need to create exceptional product descriptions and pages. Ads are also occupying more space.
A lot is going on. You must watch these shifts carefully while integrating your business into the overall marketing ecosystem.
Pitfalls to avoid when starting and running an SEO agency
You can always control your motivation and discipline. Your “why” for being in this business is also within your scope of influence.
Maybe your “why” revolves around creating the best agency out there. It could also be a less lofty goal, like designing a lifestyle business that helps you spend more time with your family. Whatever your core purpose is, identify it and reference it constantly.
Reconnect with your initial inspiration for starting your business. Then, focus on improving operations and steadily working towards your goals.
Put yourself in the client’s shoes. Try to understand why they parted ways with you. Was there a failure in communication or reporting? Did they fail to see the value? Did the client need more meetings to stay informed and involved?
Conduct NPS (Net Promoter Score) or feedback surveys regularly. This can help you consistently improve and understand what your clients did and didn’t like.
Wrapping up
Starting an SEO agency and running it successfully requires strategic planning, continuous learning, effective team management, and commitment to high-quality work. Thankfully, these are all aspects you can control. Focus on these elements to build a solid foundation for success.

Key tips for starting an SEO business:
- Define your niche: Offering basic SEO services is no longer enough to stand out. Identify a niche to specialize in and target.
- Get out and network: Build your network by attending events and meetups, and engaging with communities. Exchange experiences and generate leads.
- Form strategic partnerships: Look for and collaborate with companies offering complementary services for mutually beneficial relationships.
- Deliver high-quality work: Set the bar high and raise it often to build your reputation.
- Keep learning: Continually expand your SEO expertise, learn from experts, and outpace changes and trends.

There are also many other ways to stand out:
- Specialization: Don’t position yourself as a generalist agency. Focus instead on a specific niche like ecommerce SEO, local SEO, SaaS SEO, etc.
- Proprietary process: Develop a unique methodology for your campaigns that no other agency offers.
- Added value: Provide bundle packages for additional services like CRO, PPC, and web development. Some of your rivals may not provide this service.
Map out your ideal client
Here is why StudioHawk made the strategic decision to focus on the small-to-medium enterprise (SME) market (when launching in the UK):
- SMEs generally have smaller budgets: StudioHawk responded by offering competitive prices and lower overhead costs.
- Many SMEs suffer from poor experiences: This inspired Anthony’s team to create quality services in a field marred by low-quality SEO providers who use churn and burn tactics.
- Smaller businesses crave more personalized service: This calls for tighter client bonds.

- They attended industry-specific events and SEO conferences.
- They built relationships with respected thought leaders.
- They subscribed to newsletters and joined online communities.
Share wins and lessons
Share knowledge internally. Learn from your colleagues through:
- Campaign review sessions, where your SEO specialists can present their high-performing work and failures side by side. Pinpoint strategies leading either to success or poor results.
- Collaborative brainstorming, specifically on reporting enhancements, use of tools, client interaction, etc.
- Workshops on industry-specific insights, where the team discusses strategies for various niches.
Adapt to search evolution

Pitfalls to avoid when starting and running an SEO agency
- Don’t focus on things outside your control
You can always control your motivation and discipline. Your “why” for being in this business is also within your scope of influence.
- Remember your ‘Why’
Maybe your “why” revolves around creating the best agency out there. It could also be a less lofty goal, like designing a lifestyle business that helps you spend more time with your family. Whatever your core purpose is, identify it and reference it constantly.
Reconnect with your initial inspiration for starting your business. Then, focus on improving operations and steadily working towards your goals.
- Don’t blame clients if they quit
Put yourself in the client’s shoes. Try to understand why they parted ways with you. Was there a failure in communication or reporting? Did they fail to see the value? Did the client need more meetings to stay informed and involved?
Conduct NPS (Net Promoter Score) or feedback surveys regularly. This can help you consistently improve and understand what your clients did and didn’t like.
- Know your numbers
Wrapping up
Starting an SEO agency and running it successfully requires strategic planning, continuous learning, effective team management, and commitment to high-quality work. Thankfully, these are all aspects you can control. Focus on these elements to build a solid foundation for success.

2024.05.17 10:36 SilentCamel662 Large part of a conversation missing...
Edit:
Solved in a comment!
Original post:
I encountered a horrible bug yesterday - suddenly around 85% of my long conversation with GPT4 was gone. Does anyone know of any way to restore the missing messages?
The messages have just disappeared completely from my account - I checked OpenAI's webpage on PC, I checked the Android app and the iOS app and they are gone everywhere. All that is left, is the very beginning of this long conversation and the last message that I sent there. I can continue the conversation but most of it is just gone.
I tried to generate a share link but apparently sharing conversations with images is not supported...
Even just restoring the images would be enough for me. I have spent a long time on that conversation and generated there around 30 great images with DallE. Sadly, those images are now missing since I didn't download them.
Most messages were generated with GPT4 though I also sent a few messages to GPT4o somewhere in the middle of the conversation (due to temporarily reaching the GPT4 limit), not sure if that's relevant.
Anyone knows this bug and any way to counter it?

2024.05.17 10:24 BigBreath AI=Business? LMAO
Lol NO! With all the buzz around this world and every company trying to incorporate some form of AI into their business to push their stock price up, I think it's bullshit. But hey, disclaimer: I made two AI businesses and have 2 years of experience in this field, and here is everything I have learned.
My first business was an insurance-based blog completely built with AI. I sold that for $6700 within the first year. I know it's not much, but I needed the money to survive as I was broke.
Now I run a YouTube channel primarily focused on building AI businesses. I started it last year following the trend of AI and unsurprisingly, it grew quite well. I gained about 20k subs and earned quite well combined with all the sponsorship and ad revenue. I get about 5-10 sponsor emails a day, 80% of which go unread. But the other day, I was scrolling through a few of my older sponsor emails and tried testing out a few of their products. Surprisingly, most of their websites were shut down or their products had changed completely from what they had emailed me about.
It was strange for me at first, as these companies did have good money to sponsor but did not have enough to keep running their websites or continuing their products.
I have used tons thousands of AI products and out of all those ChatGPT is the only one that truly can make a difference for you every other AI product has no real value to offer. The majority of the AI products out there are just reskinned versions of either ChatGPT or Midjourney.
All these companies are VC-backed and initially make a lot of noise with sponsorship and everything but none of these works as not many turn into paying customers.
Most of the new startups are trying to focus on niche problems and trying to solve them using AI. Which I think is a really good initiative and I fully support it. But here is what they miss, they aren’t useful enough for people to ditch the free version of ChatGPT or other such free AI tools and use their product.
Invideo, AI is a good example of such a problem. They are trying to revolutionize the video creation space by integrating AI and also making an AI-based video generator where you just put in the prompt and the AI makes a video on its own from it. Sounds good. Seeing this I thought to put an affiliate link on Invideo in my video descriptions. I got around 600 sign-ups in total and 0 conversions. YES, 0 conversions from 600 sign-ups. Now keep in mind that my channel is very much focused on AI business and video creation so my channel is a perfect fit for their product, but it did not work out even then. I tested out the product and the results were bad, I mean sure it can create videos on its own but the quality is so shit that it can’t be used anywhere.
So what can you sell? The best AI business right now I think is to automate your process using some AI tools to get faster results or to outsource. You cannot sell Ai as a business right now.
Companies like OpenAI, and Google have infinite cash, and they can sell this service quite easily but for people like us, it's really difficult to sell AI as a service.

It all starts to make sense once you start using their product. It's completely dogshit I will be honest. 99% of the AI products available out there right now are just riding the hype train.

So if everything is so bad, then why am I in this business? Well, this is where the opportunity lies.

Hi all,
I'm trying to optimize my Wordpress post layout, which is using generate Press as Theme.
Page Insights recommends some improvements in the related Category articles, which appear the bottom of the article:
I have checked in the Theme Customize but there are apparently no options to change the links at the end of the article. Any idea which file should I modify or how to disable the links at the end of the Post?
Thanks!

2024.05.17 10:14 Stanley232323 Daily Community Tiering Post Day 30: "A-G-G-Ron? What kind of a name is A-G-G-Ron?" It's Aggron/Mega Aggron!
Hello again everybody!
Before we get started on today's post the current voting for Whimsicott currently has votes for B tier with a pretty solid lead!
So with that being said it looks like the fluffy hair fairy will be joining the B tier! Like with all previous votes I'll continue to check the numbers and if anything changes I'll update it on tomorrow's post.
(Please note that this voting/tiering is centered around Classic as after a certain point in Endless only about 5 Pokemon and 2 abilities are truly viable.)
So current tiers are:
S tier - Garganacl, Cloyster, Skeledirge, Gholdengo, Tinkaton
A tier - Gyarados/Mega, VenusauMega/Dyna, Aegislash, Corviknight/Dyna, Excadrill, GardevoiMega, Toxapex, ScizoMega, GengaMega/Dyna
B tier - Kanto-Persian/Dynamax Kanto-Meowth, Weavile, Starmie, Rhyperior, Quagsire, Mamoswine, Whimsicott
C tier - Linoone
F tier - Dustox
With that being said let's get to today's vote!
Today is day 30 of Tier Voting and today we will be talking about a Pokemon that won many fans over with its design all the way back in Generation 3. Aggron has extremely high physical defense and a pretty solid Attack stat at the tradeoff of a little rough on the Special Defensive side. And while it has a bit of an infamous typing in Steel/Rock and a rough Speed stat, its Mega form makes it a pure Steel type and increases its Attack and Defenses even more, making its Special Defense quite a bit more passable. It does lose STAB on Head Smash in Mega form but its survivability definitely increases in this form. It also has a Passive in this game which helps mitigate its weaknesses and when in its Mega form combined with its natural Ability to completely neutralize all of its weaknesses. It also has some amazing Egg moves (including one of the strongest moves in the entire game in Salt Cure). It does have a little bit of flexibility as it can run either of its normal Abilities for a bit different of setups and doesn't typically prefer its Hidden Ability which makes it a bit more accessible as well.
(Please note that Pokemon with Mega/Dynamax evolutions will be tiered as one Pokemon and not tiered separately for their Mega/Dynamax form. Different variants such as Alolan Persian vs. Kanto Persian will be tiered separately however.)
(Also here is the post with rules for voting/tiering posts and a little more explanation about them in general: https://www.reddit.com/pokerogue/s/0LNZhPPzR9 Links to past votes can all be found here as well in comments added to the OP with each new vote)
And here is a quick reminder of what each tier generally means:
S tier: Top tier, can make or break your entire run, essentially the cream of the crop
A tier: really strong but not quite top tier, maybe slightly outclassed or has a slight weakness holding it back
B tier: solid choices that can make it to your endgame team, might be reliant on team composition to truly function well or might just be outclassed as well
C tier: usually early-mid game Mons, ones you don't really want to take to end game if you can avoid it, usually pretty decently glaring weakness but something redeeming enough to keep from F tier
F tier: no reason to use in end game unless you're doing it for a meme/joke
Abstain/No Opinion: this will be a voting option mostly just in case someone accidentally votes and then can't remove their vote (I've noticed that happens on Reddit sometimes) or for Pokemon people haven't unlocked/used to their full potential yet. If Abstaining votes outvote each individual tier then the Pokemon will be tabled for the time being and another vote will open up for it later (can mostly see this happening with Legendaries).
(Data in parentheses is for the Mega form)
*
Aggron (Mega)
Type: Steel/Rock (Steel)
Mega: Yes
Dynamax: No
Starter cost {Aron}: 3
Possible Egg moves: Head Smash, Shore Up, Body Press, Salt Cure
Abilities: Sturdy or Rock Head (Filter)
Hidden Ability: Heavy Metal (Filter)
Passive Ability: Solid Rock - reduces the effectiveness of Super Effective moves against the Pokemon by 25%
Evolution: Aron evolves into Lairon at level 32. Lairon evolves into Aggron at level 42. Aggron can Mega evolve with Mega Bracelet and Aggronite.
Base stats:
HP - 70 (70)
Attack - 110 (140)
Defense - 180 (230)
Sp. Attack - 60 (60)
Sp. Defense - 60 (80)
Speed - 50 (50)
Learnset by level up: Harden, Metal Claw, Rock Tomb, Tackle, Roar, Headbutt, Protect, Rock Slide, Iron Head, Metal Sound, Take Down, Autotomize, Iron Tail, Iron Defense, Heavy Slam, Double-Edge, Metal Burst
Notable TMs: Mud-Slap, Curse, Dragon Rush, Superpower, Dragon Claw, Sunny Day, Rain Dance, Sandstorm, Earthquake, Dig, Brick Break, Double Team, Aerial Ace, Facade, Rest, Sleep Talk, Shadow Claw, Payback, Stone Edge, Avalanche, Thunder Wave, Stealth Rock, Rock Slide, Bulldoze, Swagger, Rock Climb, Fire Punch, Ice Punch, Thunder Punch, Protect, Whirlpool, Rock Blast, Smart Strike, Stomping Tantrum, Low Kick, Outrage, Crunch, High Horsepower, Body Press, Head Smash
*
By request, we will be doing the rest of the traditional starters (the first ones you have unlocked in the game) that we haven't done yet for the next votes, we're hoping this will give people a little more time to try out some other Pokemon so there's less Abstaining votes winning out and we feel like it should help to flesh out the lower tiers a little more since they're mostly in direct competition with each other and some are certainly better than the others. We'll start with the 3 from the list below that were specifically requested and then just start from Gen 1 and go forward from there doing the ones we haven't done yet. (Except for Charizard until its Passive ability is implemented)
Tomorrow's vote: Infernape!
Pokemon on the radar for voting very soon: Comfey, Crobat, Ferrothorn, Gliscor, Delphox, Roserade, Vileplume, Minior, Hitmonchan, Bibarel, Chandelure, Archaludon/Dynamax Duraludon, Alakazam/Mega, Flamigo, Volcarona, Alolan-Decidueye, Barbaracle, Butterfree/Dyna, Beedrill/Mega, Mawile/Mega, Drednaw/Dyna, Annihilape, Cramorant, Aerodactyl/Mega, Glimmora, Heatran, Tapu Koko, Dialga/Primal, Galarian-Zapdos, Regieleki, Regidrago, Zacian, Zamazenta, Rayquaza/Mega, Latias/Mega, Latios/Mega, Ho-Oh, Volcanion, Toxtricity/Dyna, Carbink, Porygon-Z, Cinccino, Snorlax/Dyna, Wishiwashi

Happy voting!

The CNN is meant to determine whether is an image of a cat or a dog. Some probabilities are negative and very low. I dont know how to interpret that data.

Why Geo-Targeting Rocks My World (and Should Rock Yours Too):Imagine you're at a networking event, but instead of wading through a sea of faces, you can instantly connect with the people you need to meet. That's the power of geo-targeting on LinkedIn Ads. Forget scattershot marketing tactics! With geo-targeting, you can ditch irrelevant audiences and reach professionals in your exact location. Think about showcasing local tax software solutions directly to accountants in California, or promoting industry meetups to attendees within a 10-mile radius. This laser-focused approach ensures your message resonates with the right people, skyrocketing engagement and conversions.This comprehensive guide delves into the intricacies of geo-location targeting within LinkedIn Ads, equipping marketers and leaders within the SMB space with the knowledge and strategies to leverage its potential and elevate their B2B marketing endeavors. Demystifying the Power of Geo-Targeting for B2B Success on LinkedIn AdsGeo-location targeting enables you to showcase your LinkedIn Ads to individuals. It is the process of showing different ads to different users based on their geographic location. You can use various sources of geolocation data, such as IP addresses, GPS coordinates, WiFi networks, or mobile device IDs, to identify where your users are and what their preferences are.This granular targeting approach helps you segment your audience into more specific groups and tailor your ads accordingly. For example, you can show different offers, languages, currencies, or images depending on the country, region, city, or even neighborhood of your users, ensuring your message resonates with their local contextand achieve your marketing goals in several ways. According to a study, campaigns that utilized geo-targeting saw a 25% increase in click-through rates compared to those without. That's a significant jump in qualified leads for your business! Here's why geo-location targeting deserves a prominent place in your B2B marketing toolkit: https://preview.redd.it/4ghz2v3c1y0d1.png?width=12052&format=png&auto=webp&s=f3cf17984c010c748fff5450c3955c049fd7cbf5

Here's what successful campaigns have taught me.https://preview.redd.it/j3tpqobd1y0d1.png?width=6026&format=png&auto=webp&s=34f3db374eb45bab473ed5fa1dfe7d09fa3f4862 Step 1: Know Your Ideal Customer Inside-Out Just like a detective building a profile, you need to understand your ideal customer. There was a software company with targeted marketing managers by industry, then drilled down further by location. They found pockets of marketing automation experts in unexpected cities, leading to a surge in qualified leads. Step 2: Master Your Targeting Toolbox LinkedIn Ads gives you a location targeting buffet. Here's how others have used it effectively:
Think of targeting like creating a perfect storm for conversions. There was a B2B marketing agency who combined geo-targeting with industry targeting. They reached marketing directors in specific regions facing challenges with lead generation, offering location-specific webinars and case studies, resulting in a significant boost in qualified leads. I've seen LinkedIn geo-targeting campaigns go from flat to fantastic with these tweaksHere's what I've learned in the trenches:
Remember, the key lies in combining strategic targeting with cultural sensitivity, data-driven insights, and continuous optimization to ensure your message resonates with your global audience and propels your brand forward within the dynamic landscape of B2B marketing. By following these strategies and leveraging the insights from the video, you can craft geo-targeted LinkedIn Ads that resonate with your target audience and drive significant results. |

2024.05.17 09:57 iDrinkCopium Receiving money from EU while on student visa
Hello. I'm a Non-EU who wants to study in Germany after 1.5 year.
I do programming and have a friend from Lithuania with whom I make projects. Its related to Valve games to be specific. Those projects generate revenue which will be shared between us.
Now the question is what are the taxes and rules regarding receiving money from him when I'll be studying in Germany? Can I even continue to work on these projects then? Would it be counted as freelancing and towards 20 hours/week limit? They'll be mostly passive once the main work is done and definitely won't hamper my studies.
He'll be registering us as a company soon in his country and will file taxes there. He would be sending me funds monthly but I don't work for him. Its in partnership.
So how much can I receive and is it legal? I apologize I couldn't find the information I was looking for online. Maybe you can link to an article where I can read about it.

2024.05.17 09:52 frustratedsighs tips for beginner & casual players
preface: this is compilation of tips that i feel get undermentioned in general guides and that i wish i knew when i started playing, from my personal experience as a casual player who has been playing for less than a year. it is NOT comprehensive guide.
i refer to casual players as anyone who doesn't regularly (NOT the same as frequently) play the game, doesn't take part in every event, generally doesn't bother with more complicated techniques, etc.
feel free to share any tips you also wish you knew as a beginner and i'll try to add as many as i can (with credit of course)!
i will try to keep adding tips if/when they occur to me or someone offers a good one, so again feel free to share your own!

non-gameplay
- this game is NOT beginner friendly.
- premium boxes cost A LOT and there is no pity/guarantee system**.
- it's fun and the tsums are cute though so like
- therefore, PLANNING AHEAD and PRE-FARMING COINS are key to obtaining your desired tsums.
- someone will usually post the following month's calendar near the end of the month which shows all the tsum available that following month and their availability periods.
- u/MalibuDan posts monthly tsum evaluations at the start of every month as well, VERY HELPFUL in deciding whether or not to pull for a specific tsum.
- finish the colouring book cards for max skill level gadget hackwrench.
- this will be your best coin farming tsum at the start, and if you just get unlucky trying to get a better one.
- LINK YOUR LINE ACCOUNT AND ADD FRIENDS. this subreddit has a monthly line id thread for this.
- adding friends through line is ESSENTIAL to maintaining a steady supply of hearts.
- linking your line account also just ensures you never lose your progress as long as you have your line account.
- many recommended tsums require a certain skill level to start functioning optimally.
- the specific skill level is not always explicitly mentioned, do your own research.
- there are a lot of videos on yt showcasing tsums at different levels that are helpful for this.
- only invest in the skill level of tsums you are comfortable using.
- no matter how recommended a tsum is, if you are not comfortable using it, it will perform less efficiently than one you are comfortable with.
- skill leveling is exponential. don't waste precious skill tickets or coins on pulling dupes unless you're sure you will be using the tsum.
- a lot of skill descriptions DO NOT list the full skill. DO YOUR RESEARCH.
- e.g. anakin tsum skill description ONLY mentions the short tap for to clear multiple lines of tsums (short chains, good for generating bubbles) and does NOT mention the long directional tap to clear significantly larger line of tsums and bubbles (bigger chain, more score+exp+coins)
- a good indicator you might be missing something is if the tsum is severely under-performing compared to reviews.
- yes, you should raise your all your tsums' (score) levels.
- the score level refers to the amount of base score points you gain when clearing that specific tsum. chain multiplier calculates off that tsum's base score points.
- it's necessary to avoid struggling with score-based missions down the line, especially since tsums aside from my tsum are selected at random.
- the level 5 and level 10 cap cost 2k coins to unlock and increase beyond that. max level is 50.
- tsums are categorised. my tsum will significantly decrease the chance of spawning tsums in the same category for each game.
- e.g. general colours, round/pointed ears, wears a hat/crown/etc, princess/queen/villain/etc, animals, tsums with variations (mickey, cabbage mickey, daruma mickey, etc), series/franchise (frozen, winnie the pooh, pixar, etc) etc etc etc
- this is more relevant for clearing tsum missions that do not require a specific my tsum.
- specific my tsum missions will provide a list of tsums you can use and will indicate before starting a game if the current my tsum cannot be used for the mission.
actual gameplay
- the try again button in the pause menu simply ends the game. bonus items are NOT refunded.
- saves time if you mess up and know you won't be able to complete a mission.
- accuracy > speed.
- avoids wasting time possibly fumbling chains
- longer chains give more score+exp+COINS
- save bubbles to trigger fever time or to spawn new tsums for easier / better chains.
- triggering fever time adds +5sec to the timer.
- whether you use gyro or the fan button, repositioning tsums wastes precious time that could be spent on clearing tsums.
- if you regain your skill right as the timer is ending:
- if the skill clears tsums (i.e. burst, clears lines, etc), use it before the timer ends.
- last bonus skill picks a tsum to clear at random, possibly clearing the least number of tsums. using your skill will almost always give you more rewards.
- if the skill does not clear tsums (i.e. friend-calling tsum), leave it for last bonus after the timer ends.
- you might not have time to clear any tsums after activating the skill and the skill value will be wasted.
- exception is time stopping/adding skills.
- if the skill clears tsums (i.e. burst, clears lines, etc), use it before the timer ends.
- if you are close to completing a mission, it's cheaper to extend the timer (5 rubies) than to make the mission easier (10 rubies) in the card menu.
- of course, this only applies if you only need a bit more to complete the mission, otherwise making the mission easier cuts the mission goal a significant amount.
- only use +coin bonus item if you can guarantee 1k+ coin score.
- simple math, you break even or gain less than not using it otherwise.
- basic probability, chances of getting a high multiplier is possible but extremely low. it's also just a waste for the chance to occur with a low coin score.
- some skill tickets (most importantly 5>4) are discounted near the end of the month.
- this is an optimal time to farm especially if you have a good coin farming tsum.
- it's also a good time for completing harder missions as 5>4 helps in multiple aspects.
i will try to keep adding tips if/when they occur to me or someone offers a good one, so again feel free to share your own!
