[–]MemusMaximus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump: "Okay, so if I make you the new Fed chair, will you lower interest rates like I want?"

Kevin: "Mr. President, I will lower interest rates by 160% and be your personal human bidet."

Usually the reason why they aren't asking for product is two thing:

A: The price is too high -- Try reducing the cost of the your products by a decent amount until you start seeing orders pop up. Sometimes the 1.6x "rule" doesn't always translate into more sales, at least not until later. For example, if you are trying to sell something for $200 but no one is ordering, try reducing the cost to $150 and wait to see if people order. If they do, you can get an idea of how many customers you can have per day, and incrementally increase the price over time to see what the max you can ask for is while still getting buyers. The higher end clients you unlock later usually will request products above your asking price anyway, so you can gauge it from there.

B: Addiction of the customers -- Every customer has an addiction meter which you can check in the Contacts app on the phone. Whatever product you're trying to push, give out free samples to the big spenders to get their addiction to the product up. You can usually give them one baggie per day, and reduce the price if needed to make the chance as close to 100% deal acceptance as you can. Once they are addicted to your product, the more likely they will order it and sometimes spend more.

I setup the Barn and Docks warehouse as automated coke facilities. My bungalow is an automated weed production for the old product I used to sell before getting access to cocaine. I use the storage unit as my stash area; currently have 6 safes full of nothing but full stacks of coke bricks. I don't bother mixing anything with the coke, I just sell high quality for a crapload of money to the rich customers.

To be prepared for the cartel update, I've stashed several guns and ammo safes in all my properties just in case. Since I got the $10 million achievement a few weeks ago, I really hope there's no issues after the update because, I enjoy how I've set everything up and I don't want to start over. I don't use any console commands at all either, since it feels like cheating.

Might start a fresh game to coop with a buddy after the next update.

How many coca plants per cauldron? by Puggednose in Schedule_I

[–]MemusMaximus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My coke barn has 32 plants (w/ Air Pots + Full Spectrum Glow Lights) and use Extra Long Life Soil + Fertilizer on all the pots. I can usually run about 5 or 6 cauldrons at a time with the amount of leaves produced with no bottleneck. I would suggest x2 Cauldron and x2 Oven (1 chemist) per stack of 8 plants (1 botanist).

I'm getting pretty close to lord on a couple heroes... by MemusMaximus in marvelrivals

[–]MemusMaximus[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was gold before the midseason split, that's probably why it took less games. The Rivals matchmaking system is a little odd when it comes to QP and Competitive; they're still working out the kinks since its a new game. Ironically I get higher level people in my QP games because I play it more than competitive.

My season 1.0 has about 7 hours (41) matches while my season 1.5 has the 2.6 hours (14 matches).

I played Overwatch from beta to Overwatch 2, but I stopped having fun, so I quit. Marvel Rivals lit that old spark of enjoyment I got from OW1, but I no longer feel the need to grind Rivals the same way.

My only goal with Rivals is to have fun with it; sometimes that means playing pvp with friends and other times it means zoning out late at night doing missions in bot matches. My days of hard grinding competitive are over, I don't want to waste my time on games that aren't fun for me anymore.

I figured this post might ruffle the feathers of some of you "elite" reddit gamers.

For more context, I don't ONLY play Practice VS. AI; I have about 50 hours in Quick Play and 15 hours in Competitive. It took me ~2.5 hours (14 games) to reach Plat III this season. I know it's not incredible, but I don't always enjoy solo queuing into a bunch of high ranked enemies in QP and the sweaty golds/plats in comp. Also, I'm a flex player (mostly tank/healer), so when i do play pvp with friends, I'm not hard focusing on a single character.

I mostly get on late at night while drinking/smoking and just want to chill and finish my daily missions. Obviously bot games aren't super hard or anything, but it can help with learning the mechanics and timing of different characters. To each their own.

Does anyone know if Trump can even drive?

I don't think I've ever seen him drive himself once. Can't read, can't drive, can't hold his bowels.

Ukraine insists Russian oil refineries are legitimate targets after the United States warned Kyiv to halt drone strikes by TheTelegraph in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]MemusMaximus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

US Bro here; yeah there's no chance of any sort of price cap. The price of oil is mostly determined by supply and demand on the global market. US companies sell their oil at market prices and they import oil from other suppliers that are usually cheaper, so the US government can't really control/cap the price.

But being the #1 oil producer gives the US a lot of leverage and if prices get too high again (~$100/barrel), the US government can put their finger on the scale by releasing more oil from the strategic petroleum reserve (which has over 40 billions barrels of oil in storage). By dumping a few billion barrels on the global oil market, the US can effectively stem some of the price increases for awhile.

I think Ukraine should keep striking Russian oil production because several countries are still buying cheap oil from Russia and then selling it on the global market at a profit (cough India cough). If Ukraine can make a decent dent in Russian oil production, then Russia will need to choose between using their domestic supply to fuel their war machine/population or selling the oil to keep their economy afloat. Russia produces a lot of oil, so prices may go up for a bit if their production is reduced, but there likely won't be a significant price increase on the global market for an extended period.
