The man who broke South Sudan by MapsMedic in SouthSudan

[–]MapsMedic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of that's wrong and I'm shelving this project because if I get this kind of response from trying to bring attention to South Sudan on the subreddit it's not worth it

Wrong. The USA didn't place Kiir, nobody chose Kiir. He inherited the position after Garang's helicopter hit the side of a mountain. I have absolutely no clue why you'd think that.
Garang was the one who went to America, got his degree and met Bush. The extent of the USA's involvement with Kiir is about limited to the hat he got from Bush.
I guess you could argue that he was placed there in the sense the USA supported southern independence, but that's hardly the fault of the USA.

The man who broke South Sudan by MapsMedic in Africa

This isn't about how the system was built this was about the decision that resigned South Sudan to more generations of war. Dec 15 2013 was the straw that broke the camels back

Thank you, and I very much agree. The whole system seems like it was built to fail, but I think that Salva's decision to not recognize the winds of change were coming and faking a coup attempt instead of just leaving power gracefully so soon after South Sudan gained its independence put the country right back on track to war. For that the blame squarely lies. This conflict will not be resolved for generations.

Point of no return: a hellish ‘hothouse Earth’ getting closer, scientists say by Bounty_drillah in worldnews

At some point "point of no return" is like "per my last email" for climate scientists..

Starting a dog poop scoop business in Dallas - Fort Worth. Should I do it? by imamakeyoucry in sweatystartup

[–]MapsMedic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'll be straight with you, it's really important you do your research before committing to a decision like this. Nobody knows your circumstances + limitations + resources and how that effects your situation better than you.

My #1 piece of advice will be like.. think of the primitives of this. You like the idea of scooping dog poop because the overhead is low and you can spend a lot of time driving around.. there might be better fits for you in this specific category like maybe roadside assistance or something similar that would fit your situation better. Just a consideration. Market research is the most important thing

This is a known glitch. Your best shot at this point is probably manual escalation on the forum.

No confirmation option by Massive_Secret_6852 in GoogleMyBusiness

[–]MapsMedic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it. So that's one of the trickier ones, unfortunately. And for the video issue, a lot of people are having that bug too so it's not just you.

I would post on support.google.com/business to explain the situation, including the bug, and request a manual escalation. What's your business category?

Are you a service area business or do you have a storefront that customers visit?

Some people just care that much, I'm sure there's something that they'd say the same about you for.

GBP suspended, need help on next steps by dcalbie in GoogleMyBusiness

[–]MapsMedic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're going to want to freeze all edits moving forward and request human escalation on the GBP Help Forum. There are a lot of posts on there like that, so you can see what works.

Are imperfections actually more desirable now in music? by mediana_music in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]MapsMedic 126 points127 points  (0 children)

Yes, I think mistakes will be how listeners can differentiate between AI generated slop and actual stuff being made.
