I think higher numbers would lead to reform on its own. When you’re scraping by at the bare minimum, a lot of stuff gets overlooked just to maintain numbers.

More cops would make it a lot easier to have better standards, and raise the average competency level.

It’s to create the illusion that there’s more cops than there really are. Same reason behind take home cars.

My city of about 300k people has about 30 cops patrolling at any given time.

By your powers combined, I am Captain Cancer!

Stage 6 is when you’re too important for meetings, and if you show up to one everyone is terrified.

That gun looks familiar…

Oh yeah!

FWIW, if that guy’s gear was the same pattern he’d blend better that his comrades.

Also, that cat is cute AF.

“I don’t know why, but if you remove this comment it fucks up everything.”

I saw this comment in a piece of code once; I left it there as not to tempt the fates.

There may have been “other factors” that were not legal in my state at the time contributing to my pantsless genius…

I’ve used my jeans as oven mitts before.

First night in new apartment, making frozen pizza, oven mitts are… Wait, do I even own oven mitts? Is there a towel around? Jeans are thick, that should work!

Sitting on the floor, sans pants, eating a Red Baron off the box it came in, sliced haphazardly with a pocket knife is peak adulting.

Now there’s 2702 billionaires to take out…

Studies show that an attacker with a knife in hand has the advantage over someone with a holstered gun from as far as 21 feet away.

I learned about Arch from memes.

I run CinnaMint.

I’m attempting to normalize “CinnaMint” over “Mint Cinnamon”

I waited a year after release before I got mine, and I should have gotten it day one. It pretty much goes everywhere with me, and I already had a Library of games thanks to years of Humble Bundle purchases.

Games go on sale dirt cheap constantly as well. If I never bought another game, I probably have a solid 10 years of things to play, but I have a bad habit of buying bundles because there’s 1 or 2 games I want and I end up with a dozen for “free.”

I have emulators from Atari 2600 to N64 installed currently, and they all run well. Haven’t tried any GameCube+ emulators yet, but I don’t think it would have a problem. I’ve seen videos of people running TotK with a better frame rate than on Switch, but I don’t if that was “out-of-the-box” or if they had to tweak things.

Either way, it’s a damn capable device for the sub $300 it’s on sale for right now. (Base model, of course) I’ve been thinking of upgrading to the high end OLED model.

I don’t know if a Switch 2 would get me to move away from my Steam Deck.

That’s just one mod. Every character gets Tits and dong.

Now there’s a memory I didn’t know I repressed…

Plugging it into the TV & playing Jackbox games where everyone uses their phones as a controller is a great party trick.

I’ve carried a knife daily for 30+ years; more people should carry knives so they stop asking to borrow mine when they need one.
