  • I picked up uke super fast, much easier than guitar since it’s only got 4 strings and they’re often nylon or whatever and not metal. Not great at it, takes a while to freestyle, but the basic chords are simple, and there’s a few channels on YouTube that put out four chord songs. Also fairly cheap, I started on a $50 one that wasn’t great but passable, and upgraded later to Enya for like $130 and that works just fine







  • Heard from a local cop that it had something to do with the union. If the department wants to implement a standard the union would require something or other. Something about an incentive? I didn’t get the whole picture obviously. I know police need unions in case somebody sues them but does seem kind of dumb that it’s so difficult to enforce a physical standard.


  • 100%, like other people said just change keybinds. I’ve beaten dark souls 1 and 2 with KBAM and gotten a fair bit of the way through DS3 and Elden Ring with keyboard and mouse (KBAM) too. If you aren’t used to playing with KBAM you might have issues figuring out what to bind stuff to, and even then you might get frustrated at first (I quit DS2 initially) but it’s definitely doable. IMO KBAM is much easier for these kinds of games (3rd and 1st person) than a controller once you’re used to it.

    Respectfully I’d disagree. I can’t scroll through most of my meme or shitposting communities without seeing some politically flavored post, and there’s some kind of political comment on probably 85% of those posts. I get politics is an important topic but people often don’t have the class to keep politics out of the more “fun” communities. I keep to my subscribed list, block the spammers, but it’s fairly pervasive. I suppose that’s not all a bad thing as I get on social media a lot less atm. If you’ve got any additional tips though I’d love to hear them.
