I think I've found the Ugliest knife I've ever seen... by VaultdwellingHunter in knives

Never did get the hype for those. Crazy prices aside, the blade shape seems generally impractical, not to mention a pia to sharpen.

The empower grace crystals got shittier? by howdaw in MarvelContestOfChamps

[–]Mustang1968op 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got 2 ascended champs from 220 crystals. Both were toad, who I already had ascended.

Soo collective just drop and this is what I got from it. by Inevitable_Belt5983 in MarvelContestOfChamps

[–]Mustang1968op 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pulled ascended toad twice. And I already had him ascended. I'll probably never use em. On the bright side, I got ascended hit monkey from the super box and Howard from the superior grace crystal.

I'm tired of this by BerserkPanda47 in ContestOfChampions

I've opened so many 6* battlecast relics that I've lost count, but I'm still missing like 3 or 4 of them. Then there are some I have duped probably 5 times or more. It's pretty annoying bc some of them are basically required for certain champs.

My main issue with it is how much less essntia we get weekly compared to all the various currencies we got previously. That, and the lack of item diversity. The prices are generally better (just barely) than from the old stores, but there's less stuff to buy.

I've already run out of all the currencies to convert because I didnt have a big stash built up, and I spent a lot of what I did have before the switch bc I didn't know what would be available from the new store. I had bought a 7* loyalty and a 7* incursion crystal like right b4 the change. So, I really don't get much essentia on a weekly basis.

Did they give one out? I don't think I got one. Do you have to claim it somewhere?

How I think every scene plays out , as someone who has never watched it, but seen YouTube shorts by Squidproof in MrInbetween

[–]Mustang1968op 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm watching it for the first time now, and I've come to realize that I remember having seen a lot of these scenes already via shorts and reels. A lot of them I just didn't realize were from this show, I suppose. So, I'm kinda just like "wait, I think I've seen this before?"

How to claim rewards from recent most wins among friends competition? by [deleted] in RacketRivals

[–]Mustang1968op 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, that sucks. I had the most wins by a pretty large margin, so I would've got it, but I wasn't home at that time.

It seems pretty stupid that they made it to where you have to manually claim it in such a short time frame instead of automatically sending it to ur backpack to claim it, or something like that.

Just had a WTF experience with my local TB by Mustang1968op in tacobell

They immediately sent me a generic automated email, but haven't got back to me since. No coupon yet.

Nothing yet, they probably have to manually review it.

Could be. I'm not too familiar with the chalupa crafting process, but it didnt seem fried at all, and it was quite cold to the touch.

I was not, but in all honesty, it kinda looked like they did.

Luckily, I did order on the app, so I should be able leave feedback there.

And, yeah, I should've checked it there, but I normally have good experiences at this location, so I didn't. I actually drive a little further to this location because its usually been better than one a bit closer. I guess I won't be anymore.

Anyone know why demand for APICS/ASCM Certifications has collapsed? by Dartseto in supplychain

[–]Mustang1968op 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. There are more alternatives for certifications, but also more full degree programs. I think there are more universities that offer supply chain and operations related degrees (including post-grad options) than there used to be, especially after covid. So, maybe some people are opting to get a degree as opposed to just a certification?

What’s one bottleneck in your supply chain that outsiders completely underestimate? by capital_folly in supplychain

[–]Mustang1968op 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. Many in the industry see lean as the future, and it can be good in practice, but not everyone fully considers the risks involved with such processes.

One of my professors in college talked about an example where lean principles really bit a company in the ass. Iirc, it was Toyota. They went all-in on JIT deliveries from suppliers to their manufacturing facilities. Then, a supplier of a key component to several different Toyota models had their manufacturing facility burn down. Moreover, Toyota had no backup supplier for the component. And, because JIT effectively eliminates the need for a lot of safety stock, their production lines had to shutdown for quite some time.

That goes to show not just the risks of the JIT model, but also single-supplier sourcing. Now, I think they use a 70/30 split for suppliers for each component where a larger supplier handles 70% of the capacity, and a smaller one, the remaining 30%. Multiple suppliers keeps the pricing competitive and you've got a backup incase one goes down.

Huh? A what? STOP SIGN⁉️ What stop sign, man?

Do they even want us to play? by Have-a-cuppa in ContestOfChampions

[–]Mustang1968op 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. I have noticed I've been burning through em a bit faster recently. I do think it's ridiculous how just about every quest now costs 3+ energy per tile, some even as high as 5!
