More likely it will never be profitable because her great grandparents didn't enter the lemonade and beverages market seriously enough. So Coke Cola Europe rules the industry.

...actually looking into it, Pepsi owns 10% of the market, and Coke owns 5%... There's still some room for her if she has the right angle. She should probably try to disrupt the market somehow. Maybe make soda as a drug delivery system? She can piggy back on media hype like "Could this soda cure your diabetes?" Or perhaps custom targetted ads printed on cans? Maybe made-to-order taste sensation?

Tell her to get a degree in marketing and raise a billion dollars in VC money, she might have a chance still.

There's currently 3 million people with Glacoma in America (whose total population is about 350 million). So if EVERYONE in America (suddenly became middle aged men who) took this erection drug regularly, that number would go up to 3.7 million people with Glacoma.

For the dog happiness comes from within.

For the billionaire happiness comes from making certain amounts of money.

Be the dog.

Did you know the Democrats in the US are sponsoring anti-communist posts on Lemmy and Reddit in the hopes some the anticomm sentiment will bubble up and damage the momentum of progressive socially democratic candidates like Mamdani, AOC, and Sanders?

I can't imagine the levels of boomer and Gen-X cognitive decline we'd be seeing if they DIDN'T play these games. So I'm thank for elder gamers.

ELDER GAMERS RULE!

...more than generational warfare does.

"But the dogs are accurate because there was once upon a time drugs near the general area" (you)

That's also not what's said.

There's plenty of articles debunking this. Other articles make it more clear, that the dogs are responding to their handlers intuitions, in order to make them happy and get treats.

That there "was once drugs in the area in the past some time" or else where at the rave/nightclub/house party, so residual odor claims can be made." isn't the same as confirming that's what the dog was picking up on.

You're falling for cop-logic.

Here's more studies on it. It's widely debunked.

I think the biggest truth that goes unsaid is that cops use sniffer dogs the same way they use lie detectors - as a means of pressuring suspects.

There's a smell of shit and dead children coming from that pile of fruits and vegetables.

...and it's talking about being a genius businessman.

Drug sniffing dogs don't really work in most cases. They're mainly responding to cues from their handlers.
