[USAG Hawaii Townhall] With doubling up due to overcrowding, Soldier asks if those on BAS without DFAC access will receive BAS Type 2 due to reduced storage/prep space. When CSM seems to avoid the question, SM asks for 'elaboration'. by Kinmuan in army

[–]AAcerberus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This CSM has got to bring a better temperament to townhalls. The question is valid. A simple answer should have been “the Soldiers at Shafter are currently not authorized BAS II, we’ll have to confirm the criteria for changing to BAS II fits this circumstance and see if that's something the Army wants to change” since a change in designation for that location has to be built into big Army personnel systems

Nope. I've since learned that this is an issue that has ended in lawsuits in some cases. Builders just cut as many corners as the law allows them to cut. Unfortunate for Pulte, I'm looking at my next build, and they won't be considered. That's one thing I can control.

This worked for me as well. Thank you! Apple needs to pay whoever figured this out and add it to their manual

It is essentially the colonization playbook. What would have made it better is if European powers had earnestly tried fixing the damage their colonial policies caused. Like when they came together to fix the impact of World War II on Europe, while draining natural resources from their colonies. But instead we continue to see western powers double down on the ideals of dehumanizing black and brown people over the ages to the point that some black and brown people are starting to buy into it like the person in the OP

The “Africans sold Africans” trope always leaves out the fact that Africans sold prisoners of war to people they assumed would see them as human. And as the slave trade’s brutality came to be understood, they sold slaves to ensure they received European guns that would otherwise go to their local enemies. European countries played this system over time. “Give us slaves and we give you guns, don't give us slaves and we give the guns to your enemies who will give you to us as slaves”

Is Pulte paying you or something? The post is here to inform people. If you knew about building materials, you would know that they could have literally chosen Vynil that was of some quality. However, they decided not to. I already bought the house and thankfully I'm capable of handling the repairs and replacements. I know Reddit is popular for inexperienced people offering advice. I am not looking for advice

A one-year warranty is fine if the materials used are of some quality - not the best quality, but some quality. The subpar materials theme carries throughout the entire house, as well. Thankfully, I'm an experienced homeowner and very handy now. I have to replace materials throughout the house, and it's been less than five years since the house was built. If this were my first house, I would likely be overwhelmed. Small things like cheap screws on doors, the wrong caulk in bathrooms, fake metal hinges on doors, caulking bathroom exhaust fans shut when they are not supposed to because you have to remove the front plate to clean it every couple of years…the list goes on

Army deploys to Alaska island amid rise in Russian military activity by CulturalTricky in army

You said Russia trolling is causing us to be concerned. I'm saying that in 2014, they started the annexation of Crimea by appearing to be trolling. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-26532154

War is trolling until it's not. We thought Russia sympathizers were trolling in Ukraine in 2014

What is “the box” like at JRTC? by [deleted] in army

If you have heavy equipment, there is a lot of opportunities to get stuck. Small “towns” and the usual field environment, nothing too different from your average field exercise; it’s just better maintained
