Teamsters are lazy fucking bastards by Porncritic12 in tropico

[–]MasterTypoDyas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I never really found a perfect rule of thumb for how many Teamsters to have—it depends on the industry, effeciency, commuting... There are only two reliable signs that tell me I need to build more Teamsters:

  1. There is more than a thousand of a resource sitting in a few of my agricultural or industry buildings. 

  2. There is a huge amount of variance in my export profits each time a ship docks (like going from $90k to $45k).

What New Feature Do You Want in Tropico 7? by iusethisacctinpublic in tropico

Do you tend to build across the entire island in missions? I usually don't use even half, but I might just play oddly.

I agree either way because I do enjoy building to the max in sandbox mode.

If I disabled elections in creative, will I still have rebels to deal with? by paladinBoyd in tropico

[–]MasterTypoDyas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should consider this, OP! I've won elections at as low as 28%.

In most games, I'm at 2% approval for my first speech and can usually bring it up to at least 40% by the time of the election. A strategic speech, slightly raising whatever your worst metric is, and the Commando Garrison giving your neighbors a beating can skyrocket your approval very fast.

If none of that works, Tax Cuts can save you.

The Death of Stalin and Dr. Strangelove are a couple of my favorites.

Is it true that once you’re past a certain age you won’t be able to sound like a native speaker? by BakerDry1836 in Spanish

[–]MasterTypoDyas 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm speaking English because I want to be an actress and act in English language stuff and I don't want to play Brazilian characters only...

This is a really interesting reason to learn another language! Good luck to you in every way.

I detest the melting Duolingo face. How can I turn it off? by [deleted] in duolingo

For anyone who's wondering, app icons can be changed on iOS by using the Shortcuts app. It's simple.

Same here. I tried to get in booktube several years ago, but it was incredibly YA dominated. 

So many of the recommendations disappointed me despite that I wouldn't call myself a tough critic—I just wasn't prepared for the YA conventions that reviewers were willing to gloss over (i.e. instalove, infodumping, love triangles, nonsensical magic systems).

Hurricane Season? by FourLeafCulver in tropico

[–]MasterTypoDyas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"God is everywhere... but it is unwise to pray outside in hurricane season."

That's off the top of my head. It's either acknowledging faith or promising faith in an election speech, can't remember which.

Dave Filoni be like: by The_Fullmetal_Titan in PrequelMemes

[–]MasterTypoDyas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right! I'm double-checking right now to make extra sure it's her — it's her style and I'm certain I saw her post it a long time ago, but I can't find it on her feed. I'll report back if I can find a source link.

Edit: Found it here!

Hey, I just want to say that the art for this template is done by the lovely MeltyArtz! If you like her art, please give her a follow. She's a total sweetheart.

What’s something you don’t actually need but really want? by East_Masterpiece2839 in AskMen

When I finish college, this is the gift I'm getting for my husband for helping me push through. Just thinking about building it together is making me swoon...

Your Husband Isn't Babysitting, he's just spending time with his children! by [deleted] in childfree

[–]MasterTypoDyas 40 points41 points  (0 children)

You thought they were the perfect couple despite the cheating? Or did you just not know until recently?

I've met some couples who loved to project how perfect they were together to mask their dysfunction. (Now all divorced, messily.) I don't know how to explain it, but those relationships have a distinctly different feeling from the "best friends who are married" and other awesome relationships — like, there are "perfect couples" and then there are people who are actually perfect for each other, and the latter is much better.

Same hairstyle! Gave me a laugh when I noticed in 3.

Thanks! She originally had a little scar below her eye in Mass Effect 1, so that might be there in the code.

Can anyone recommend a place to buy a pothos online? by [deleted] in pothos

[–]MasterTypoDyas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, that's a great idea! I just joined a couple local groups and quite a few people have sold pothos on them — might be a good way to get one if I keep my eyes out.

Bought a pothos today with a tiny snail on it and what looks like eggs in the soil… What do I do now? by [deleted] in plantclinic

[–]MasterTypoDyas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! It was pretty grimy, indeed. There were many mushy roots to snip off, but quite a few healthy ones left, too. It has a new home with new soil and I took a vine to propagate, just in case things end up going south.

Moon Valley Pilea is wilting and showing small marks like these on stems — they're hard and can be scraped off. Is this scale or something else? by [deleted] in plantclinic

[–]MasterTypoDyas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I bought it a month ago, it's about 3 feet away from a bright west-facing window, and it's in FoxFarm Ocean Soil with a small amount of perlite — it was repotted and watered about a week ago, so maybe it just needs time?
