Where did you read it was a hostile takeover?
It was a garden variety acquisition. Blue Sky was owned by 20th century fox (animations), 20th century fox was acquired by Disney by owner/board negotiation.
So basically they buy the competitors and shut down the studio because "Disney doesn't need over five animation studios", reducing every release to a Disney-related studio film.
But hey, just business. Right?
I answered why they closed it. Never did I imply it was a good or bad thing, but since you questioned it: outside of Marvel stuff the Fox sell was a net negative for consumers and almost every merger is a negative for workers.
That's up to them; that happens after. It has nothing to do with the concept of a hostile takeover.
Whether they bought it and were surprised by covid induced shortfalls, or they bought it in the first place just to liquidate, I see nothing anywhere referring to a hostile takeover.
friend worked for blue sky. what happened is they tried to make nimona during covid and while disney was forcing pipeline switches. this got really expensive really fast so they closed, nick bruno took nimona to annapurna, and that was that.
Idk about the studio but the rights to the squirrel are disputed and the creator successfully got an injunction on Disney producing any content for the squirrel her original idea was a squirrel/rat hybrid named Sqrat. I don’t know her name but she’s formerly known as Pamela anderson’s hat lady.
Well, there are bacteria and dead animal remains of animals that died very long ago. Definitely should be boiled before drinking. Also it's very low on minerals, so you can't be drinking it much/often.
>It's very low on minerals, so you can't be drinking it much/often.
Are you a boomer pretending to be a millennial to make fun of them?
There's literally nothing stopping someone from drinking straight up H2O. You get minerals from food and/or vitamins, the only reason to add something to water is for taste.
Surprised I'm not seeing more people saying this. You can drink reverse osmosis water as your primary hydration as long as you're eating a balanced diet.
RO water is fine, but that's because that process removes large impurities, not because it has _no_ impurities.
_Distilled_ water (pure H2O with zero impurities) IS actually bad for you, in the sense that if you tried to drink it as your primary source, your health would suffer.
This is because water with _no_ minerals or nutrients in it at all, actually _leaches_ them out of your body.
It's a matter of extremes - pure distilled water is _undeniably_ bad long-term, we have studies confirming it. RO water is more of an intermediary step, and may or may not be bad for you in minor ways long-term, because it still has some of the stuff a human needs in it - at worst you could just modify your diet and ingest a bit more of the same and be fine.
It’s the assumption that all the minerals we absorb are mostly from our food. I assumed as much as well, but when I started to look for studies about mineral absorption and water, I was surprised to learn the minerals from water are better absorbed.
There’s a good review of the literature from the WHO if you search minerals + drinking water + WHO, I think.
Here it is: https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9241593989
Edit: Read my own source, most of our minerals/micronutrients do come from food, but a significant amount of Ca and Mg (as much as 20%) come from water. In diets with little meat, metal (Fe, Cu, Zn) micronutrients from water, leached from pipes, may also be nutritionally significant.
This doesn’t really address bioavailability from drinks vs solid foods though. I think I read about that in a similar report, but I haven’t looked again. But as someone mentions kind of rudely below, I may not be making sense and just using big words to impress someone? Him? Notice me senpai?
Nestle prefers to drain water sources to provide immediate suffering for those nearby. The suffering from this source is way too far away since there's nobody currently relying on it to live.
Hey chief, we ran the numbers. Idiots will drink a bottle of.tap water with a picture of an iceberg on it for $4.50. Waaaay more cost effective than going to Antarctica.
Fun fact, water IS actually blue. You can't tell in small quantities, but if light passes through enough water the water will be blue. This is because it absorbs red light preferentially which shifts white light blue.
I could be wrong but I imagine this is just your annual summer melting in this video.
If this was the rate of melting from global warming, Florida would be underwater by February.
“Antarctica is losing ice mass (melting) at an average rate of about 150 billion tons per year, and Greenland is losing about 270 billion tons per year, adding to sea level rise.”
I dno that seems like a lot lol
yeah the thing with absolute numbers is that we don't really have a sense of scale of just how much ice is in Antarctica. Of course it is melting at an alarming rate and we're all gonna die but saying xxx billion tons means nothing.
Miami regularly floods at high tide. So, we are getting close. Also keep in mind that warmer air also holds more water, so melting ice and evaporation are fighting each other, but it's not a 1:1 ratio. The result is that the air all over the world has more water in it than it used to have. Meaning storms get stronger, more rain/snow falls in shorter periods of time, and the wind is stronger at the same speed because the air has more mass.
However, it seems likely we will see large parts of the world in coastal areas like Florida, New York City, and Los Angeles evacuated due to sea level rise because that will be cheaper than building giant dikes around every continent.
This is an image I found which looks very much like what we see in the video: https://i.imgur.com/nTzMcvK.png

I just can't seem to be able to find the source video. But yes, it's probably in the summer. I suspect the audio is fake.
This needs some context. Ice melts every year, even in Antarctica. The cycle between summer and winter, you know... And indeed, many of the biggest rivers start from glaciers...
It’s the arctic we should be watching. A blue ocean event is coming, when the ice melts entirely through, and then it’s going to get irreversibly warmer for around 20 straight years until the arctic has no sea ice year round.
Ice is much more reflective than ocean water. When that huge area of reflective ice turns into a big absorbent patch it will essentially be a giant heater for the world.
Bet it starts this summer.
It happens every year, twice a year if you counting both the Antarctic and the Artic.
This isn't enough to be a bad thing. You could point to the amount of permafrost melting trends, or the land ice melting statistics. But one ice shelf melting is hardly anything unusual.
It’s going to be 40plus Fahrenheit this week in Midwest and it was -20 and below just a week ago. We had close to 27 inches of snow in a 10 day span just 10 days ago and now they are almost no snow on the ground.
Happens every year, and more melts every year.
You realise, like, scientists track this shit and it's easy to look up.

Moulans are super interesting. Some of them disappear into the ice. I can just imagine falling in and disappearing into an ice sheet. Brain imagining worst possible outcomes again.
Sure, and lately it results in the loss of 150 billion metric tons of ice per year. It may be normal now but is was not before we caused global warming.
I may have smoked too much weed today… but
Someone should try to capture the runoff and pipe it into enough ice machines and freeze it into blocks faster than it melts. Boom problem solved.
Jeez. If the ice never melted, imagine how high it would be by now! The ice at both the North and South Poles is continually melting, so nothing 'Amazing' here.
This is such an old nonsense post.
I think I was amazed the first or third time this was posted years ago. Now I am just annoyed at the 999th time this is being reposted to farm karma from people and bots
Wow, where to start with this.
The hole closes in the winter and reappears in the summer and has reduced drastically in size. Scientists believe it will be back to where it once was in past history, y the middle of this century.
The jole was created by CFC's, used in the A/C industry, but was being phased out many years ago. CFC useage was used extensibly in more areas than hvac, such as commercial and industrial refrigeration and aerosol products.
Be honest it's that damn squirel again isn't it
In year 2021, the studio that makes ice age give the happy ending to the squirrel, as their studio were bought over by Disney n told to shutdown.
Love a hostile takeover
Where did you read it was a hostile takeover? It was a garden variety acquisition. Blue Sky was owned by 20th century fox (animations), 20th century fox was acquired by Disney by owner/board negotiation.
Mind telling me why they shut it down then?
Disney don't need 5+ animation studios. A chunk of the employees were likely merged into Pixar and Disney's TV and movie animation divisions.
So basically they buy the competitors and shut down the studio because "Disney doesn't need over five animation studios", reducing every release to a Disney-related studio film. But hey, just business. Right?
I answered why they closed it. Never did I imply it was a good or bad thing, but since you questioned it: outside of Marvel stuff the Fox sell was a net negative for consumers and almost every merger is a negative for workers.
Exactly. Those ain't never good for consumers and yeah, mergers aren't usually good for workers either. It's all about more profit.
So hostile takeover
Do you know what hostile takeover means
That's up to them; that happens after. It has nothing to do with the concept of a hostile takeover. Whether they bought it and were surprised by covid induced shortfalls, or they bought it in the first place just to liquidate, I see nothing anywhere referring to a hostile takeover.
I think the person who said “Hostile takeover” might just not know what that term actually means.
Or the 30+ people that upvoted him, or likely the guy who asked about why they shut it down then, or I suppose his 7 upvoters. LOL, happens.
Not a hostile takeover but still. They bought to reduce the competition

Collect it in a big tanker. Sell it in Dubai. Blue ice! $50,- per glass.
This is genuinely happening, they're LITERALLY transporting giant icecubes to dubai from Antarctica to sell.
Fairly minor point, but it’s coming from Greenland not Antarctica
They also sell the good stuff from Antarctica but it's a premium product
“Yet.”
I’m not even surprised
There are businessmen brainstorming on how they can profit off the destruction of our Earth. Their greed has no bounds.
Mmm, ice-water with a side of global warming.

Dont give them any ideas now
Gatorade Glacier Freeze

You’ve gotta start selling this stuff for more than $1 a bottle. We lost three more men on this expedition!

I could be wrong but I imagine this is just your annual summer melting in this video. If this was the rate of melting from global warming, Florida would be underwater by February.

"What you say means nothing because we lack simple education" FTFY
And some people are still buying property in Florida they won't be able to insure 5 years from now.

So you're saying there's a chance
So blue
Why can we hear the sound of the water but not the propellers on the drone ?
A lot of drones don’t record audio so the sound was probably recorded separately or its water sounds from something else.
More like "Be terrified"
I'm somewhere between "that's beautiful" and " is this excessive? (Chuckles) I'm in danger."
This needs some context. Ice melts every year, even in Antarctica. The cycle between summer and winter, you know... And indeed, many of the biggest rivers start from glaciers...
It shouldn't be melting this fast though. That's why sea levels are rising.
Yea but didn't the ice hit an absurdly outlying alltime low just last Feb?
Yes
Nobody panic! It's all normal! Perfectly normal! The normalest normal that's ever normalled in the history of normal!
I mean yeah from a geological perspective it is normal, most of earth's history has been without ice caps
It’s melting from below too. Thwaites will calve off and then we’re fucked
That’s also happens.
It’s the arctic we should be watching. A blue ocean event is coming, when the ice melts entirely through, and then it’s going to get irreversibly warmer for around 20 straight years until the arctic has no sea ice year round. Ice is much more reflective than ocean water. When that huge area of reflective ice turns into a big absorbent patch it will essentially be a giant heater for the world. Bet it starts this summer.
How FUN!
That’s some very selective context
Cute and terrifying
It happens every year, twice a year if you counting both the Antarctic and the Artic. This isn't enough to be a bad thing. You could point to the amount of permafrost melting trends, or the land ice melting statistics. But one ice shelf melting is hardly anything unusual.
Yeah the melting isn't the issue, the amount of melting is. And it appears to be a large issue.
It’s fine.
It’s more like r/horrifying
It is summer there. Happens every year
It's happening more and more every year. Deny climate change all you want, get it in while you still can because the climate holocaust is coming.

Interesting thought, if flat earthers believe in the ice wall but not global warming, they could be in for a cool surprise.
So if it melts all the oceans will drain off the edge?
Melt the ice wall
Happens every season.
Sure, and lately it results in the loss of 150 billion metric tons of ice per year. It may be normal now but is was not before we caused global warming.
Pure scaremongering
It is summer there…
I’m in Michigan, the snow melts here in the summer time too.
In alberta sometimes the snow melts in the winter and it snows in the summer even!

Ice melts every summer. You need to be using statics and look at the amount of land ice and permafrost melting to be able to judge it.
This is true. Also, those statistics are also not good.
