  • Why would anyone buy this? You can already do this streaming through the Deck or any of the other handhelds, if Game Pass is your thing.

  • Tenor guitar strung in a fourths-based tuning (DGBE, ADGC) and not fifths sounds much more like six string guitar, it's how I usually tune mine. You can go full electric on them too.

    Cigar box guitars can sound pretty damn good amped up as well, and are often much cheaper to get. I picked one up from this ebay seller almost a decade ago, and still enjoy playing it. He might only make three stringers now, but those are even easier to play. Or if you're handy, you can even make them yourself.

  • Ah, it's a Pikachew then. Understood.

  • Or try ukulele! Ukulele is awesome because the cords are a lot easier and you’ll become a strumming master since you won’t be concentrating so hard on the chords. And then later down the line it would give you a good foundation if you take a crack at guitar again

    You are not kidding. IMO, everyone should start out with a four stringed instrument, they are fantastic. Move on to greater complexity later if you want to.

    I failed out on my first attempt at guitar, it was just to much... then I lucked into a tenor guitar, and entered the four-string world of tons of one and two finger chords. Suddenly I could focus on rhythm and musicality, rather than making sure my fingers were doing half a bajillion gymnastic tricks per minute.

    Four stringers are so much fun, doesn't matter if it's a ukulele, a cigar box guitar, a tenor guitar, whatever. Go get one and start having fun!

  • So many questions for the AI. Like, why do you think Naruto has three hands? Or a bo staff implanted in his rectum? Why is his lower body rotated ninety degrees from his torso at the hips?

  • So did the AI, apparently

  • Ah yes, Green Superman, my favorite super hero.

  • My favorite part of this one is the background painting that shows another guy bellowing into another grandma's face. Ric is just carrying on the tradition of this restaurant lol

  • The one child policy is going to end up biting them in the demographics not too far down the road.

  • It punches me in the soul when someone uses the phrase "acoustic bike." I get that people are using it like it is used in guitars, but it makes no sense when applied to bikes.

    The literal definition of acoustic from the dictionary is "of or relating to sound, the sense of hearing, or the science of sound." Non-electric bikes barely make any sound! Calling them "acoustic"... it is a terrible label.

  • Me, and I'm pretty sure the guy I was replying to, were both talking about plastic recycling, not aluminum recycling, replying to OP statement: I am currently trying to avoid using plastic packed drinks as much as possible due to it’s limited and finite recycle count.

    Sorry, I thought that was clear from the context.

  • Right, 90%-ish of it never gets recycled at all, and the stuff that does can only go through the process a handful of times before it's unusable.

  • Slavery was about 99% of what drove the entire thing, so it makes sense to me.

  • There is a lot of freaky AI stuff going on in the background of this shot. Quite terrifying actually lol

  • I'm tired, boss. Tired of bein' on the the app store, wantin' to be lonely as an owl in the rain. I'm tired of always havin' people annoying me, tellin' me to give them new words. Mostly, I'm tired of people never memorizin' the vocabulary. I mean, how many times can I give you "Cómo estás?" before you finally remember what it means, Cletus?

    There's too much misremembered - it's like pieces of glass in my head, all the time, I've fed you the entire Spanish lexicon ten times, and you've learned three words. Can you understand?

  • The story is in the fact that they're even asking.

  • "I am fluent in over six million forms of communication. And by communication, I mean lethal weapons."

  • I have two monitors but I do all my work on one the other is completely separate. Plays YouTube all day so that I have background noise to work with.

  • The Reddit antiwork community had quite a few ridiculous folks hanging out within it.

    Not that getting to a post-scarcity society where people aren't forced to work wasn't a nice horizon-goal to have, but there are a million steps from where we are in the modern world to there, and a lot of those people wanted it done by next Tuesday. And then when you'd point out that was literally impossible, they'd stick their fingers in their ears and make noises. Needless to say, I didn't try to stick around for long.

  • I think you must have meant "Mario fighting the emulator," no?
