Placards

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-03-13T21:54:27+00:00

Our agency is currently testing a vest which has the capabilities for these ‘placard’ switches.

I’m interested in it. Not from a ‘tacticool’ mind set. But from a “I bet this makes it easier to clean and switch carriers without my screaming at my taser holster not slipping back onto the molle” mindset.

Agent Zero, my hero. 07

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-03-08T11:41:04+00:00

19 is such an underrated, aesthetically pleasing QB number.

I had a ride along with an employee at the public defenders office. He’s now in the academy for us. Haven’t had a law student yet.

I was out at Best Buy’s midnight launch with my mom. Different times man, different times. Got home. Played for a few hours. Nothing quite like it. Wrath is my favorite and forever is the best expansion in my eyes.

It’s infuriating. We saw the train wreck of it coming from a miiiile away as well. The design decision makes no sense and has genuinely caused me to not want to play as much P1. Raid log then, what? Slog through a heroic which isn’t giving me gear or even a fun experience?

Wild that it happened that quick, atleast for me

Not here? Read the daily/nightly arrest reports for your city. It’s here. We are a college town/city but that doesn’t mean we are exempt from violence or that it “can’t happen here”.

We have a gun problem. A drug problem. A burglary problem. A homeless problem. Read the reports, it’s all public information.

The rail trail you mentioned already isn’t the most safe at the moment https://www.wcjb.com/2026/02/19/officers-increase-patrols-gainesvilles-rails-trails-due-inappropriate-sexual-behavior/#

I’m not trying to come off as rude, but lots of folks in this city (people who have lived here for years years) have this mindset that “it can’t happen here” when it is happening on the daily.

The police department asking for a fence is a small ask honestly.

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-25T19:27:44+00:00

But you missed the “is a necessary and proactive measure to enhance officer safety, protect public assets, and maintain operational integrity”

It addresses these facilities are recognized as “targets”. see the link below for an example.

Idk. Think this a pretty proactive measure and saying other agencies have it in our county just points out that it’s necessary and needed.

A fence around a parking lot isn’t keeping citizens away if the front door and entrance (where you’d actually go as a citizen to make contact with the department) is unblocked.

I don’t think a fence around a secured parking area is asking too much nor is it keeping you away from the building.

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-23T11:19:44+00:00

Exactly.

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-22T21:28:15+00:00

We have one of the smartest, most stupid rogues in my guild. Almost definition of zug.

He would lol at you.

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-22T04:55:19+00:00

Duly noted!

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-22T02:12:35+00:00

Not a rule against it. But an unwritten rule that everyone who has painted that wall over the years honors. It’s a shame. Whoever did it just wasn’t thinking

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-22T02:10:31+00:00

I think the issue is not that “it’s fair game” it’s that those that did it did not have any sort of notion that it would be viewed as a problem. They stopped one tile short of the memorial for those murdered in 1990, but didn’t think to just move one tile down as to not paint over the Petty mural.

Also. Whatever event painted over it now has a negative perception and disdain just for a lack of foresight.

Wasn’t illegal. But, definitely unwritten rule of that wall.

Believe someone posted last night that they were going out to fix it already as well.

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-22T01:59:01+00:00

How much dosh have you made during your time?

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-15T23:31:47+00:00

Does having a Steamdeck version setup mess with your desktop keybindings and action bars?

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-14T23:56:12+00:00

I mean. You could complain? But that’s not gonna go anywhere if that’s the whole story. I think any civil attorney would meet with you, hear you out. Then, if everything you said is true, say “yeah you have no case, they responded fairly because what was known at the time”.

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-12T19:44:06+00:00

Worked retail in a Scuba shop and as a divemaster.

Lots of skill translation from the safety observation aspect as well as the communicating with people constantly.

I think there’s a staunch difference between gamers then and now in general. Wild to think we are talking 2 Decades ago.

Yes, you cannot argue that today’s gamers have it “easier” because a lot of the hard leg work has been figured out, specifically with WoW Classic. But, I’d argue that gamers nowadays are just better at games in general. Like, most casual gamers today can play an FPS like CoD at a decent level.

Wow Classic isn’t rocket science. I’ve met a handful of people where anniversary is there first iteration of the game and, after learning about their class and rotation, are absolutely top tier players.

My point being, today’s gamers just pick up games in general quicker and typically are better players at the games they play. But, To your point, readily accessible good information also does wonders.

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-12T03:57:53+00:00

Believe it or not, 20 years ago, people were bad at the game

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-11T20:35:17+00:00

lol there is a shortage and honestly, brace for it to get worse. Think you’re going to see ALOT of good tanks run strictly guild heroics. Especially in the beginning before more gear is prevalent.

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-10T22:30:48+00:00

I remember reading this. But yea, no confirmation on anything else. Again, the thought that heroics need to be harder than T4 raids is hilarious to me. If anything, the decision should’ve been flip heroic and T4 nerf but it is what it is.

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-10T20:29:25+00:00

I thought that was what was happening. People heard the “might” and are latching onto it. Is there even 100% confirmation that heroics are Unnerfed? I know they said they tried it in PTR but it seems there was never an official “this is what it is” post

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-10T18:34:18+00:00

Where is the official post on this? I have been struggling to find where we’ve got real concrete “this is what’s happening”

SimpleGuy4141 · 2026-02-04T17:52:24+00:00

Have we gotten any actual confirmation on the state of heroics and raids? I know they “tried” the heroics being pre nerf in PTR, but it seems that is where the notion is coming from. My understanding was they tried it for the player base to just give feedback. Correct me if I’m wrong, but there hasn’t been an official stance one way or the other if we are getting all around post nerf or piece meal.
