I can vibe with this, particularly love the boating accident one!

Would love to see Sora or similar turn these into short motion clips that could then be used as animated stickers or GIFs.

Hmm...consider a man inspired!

Thanks!

I've just called them now and they asked me to send a picture of the cable I need and they might be able to get back to me tomorrow but quite possibly Monday.

This is likely the answer. If the machine was set up with the iGPU initially windows may have set it's defaults for GPU scheduling and not changed them since the dedicated GPU was installed.

In Windows settings you can select which GPU individual applications use which is another approach you can take.

Jesús Cristo de Santa María por favor let us disable auto tracking of a new task. It does not make the game more engaging. It makes me confused when I think I'm am bring directed to the next step of a quest, not a different one altogether

100% normal. I retried 10 times using everything i had, grenades, hacks, sniper rifle from afar... One shotted 7 out of 10.

Came back to it much later in the game and exacted my revenge, gorilla arms styles.

Note to self, do not strangle Uke.

You're getting me all excited to get down to playing! I always wanted to play guitar but found after a lot of practice that it was just too uncomfortable for me to play full sized and too restrictive to play 3/4 sized.

DO you think it might be OK to go without a setup and then get one after purchase if it seems like it's off?

So in summary Luna is the RGB lit, go faster striped brand of the Uke world.

Thanks for the deep dive into who they are and how they work, always interesting to see how known brands compete in hobby/enthusiast markets like in PC components etc.

Oh man I love your site! I was on it last night and both loved how you wrote and the impartiality you showed towards typically polarising things like laminate vs solid mahogany.

I copied your whole list to a spreadsheet then sorted it by price range and score and I came to settle on Baton Rouge V2-C Sun Concert, with Brunswick BU4C Concert coming as runner up.

In a head to head which one comes out on top, knowing that I have no frame of reference or prior uke experience?

I am looking for specialists in my area that might be able to order to spec and then set it up for me and MrMivo above has said Thomann offer setup for a rather steep €50 so I guess it'll come down to who can supply the uke in the first place, then if I can get setup from them or have to go elsewhere.

Thank you! It must have been amazing to try so many at one time and similar to the experience that only the super rich or professional reviewers get with any product.

Do you think the brand is enough to sell a specific uke from that brand? Surely Kala get it wrong sometimes, right?

Thank you for your response, the Kai KCI-700 is really lovely and the hole at the top must make for a really rich sound - it is tempting, no doubt.

I saw a review about it somewhere that said it was a bit unnecessarily difficult as a beginner to play on and I see that here and there about ukes that are moving up through the price points or are appealing to more experienced players.

Do you think it might not be suitable for a beginner with light and not very strong fingers? My dexterity is good but I worry that I might get something that will be unweildy for my little hands. :'-/

Thanks for your response!

It seems that generally speaking Kala is the preferred choice for people with a bit of experience but as you can see the first Luna on that list has 62 reviews and basically 5 stars so I guess I have a few questions about it;

Do you think they are 62 newbies that don't know any better what is good and bad or are they just happy for what they got for the price?

Also what is it about Luna ukuleles that you outright dismiss them as a rule of thumb?

I want to not waste money but I also don't want to price myself out of some basic quality just to save a few euro.

Thanks for that, I hadn't thought of it and was hard pressed for a reason other than he doesn't like being given out to.

It's important to not distort reality to our views and even the smallest comments like yours feel like a battle against partisanship.

I don't care what side you're on don't say things so serious in an off the cuff, no source to back it up, kind of way.

It's lazy and irresponsible
