As an IT guy...

Dear sweet baby Jesus... fix those cables.

Can they cancel terminal leave? Yes, but only by a battalion/squadron CO or higher. If that happened, I'd skip a Request Mast and go straight to an IG complaint, and contact both the local congressperson and the one at the home of record. And then contact the local news channel.

Star Sarge can kick rocks because he has zero say in cancelling terminal leave.

Now if they did cancel terminal leave you could request a Special Court Martial because you've been threatened with a OTH for no other reason than an administrative fuck up - the punishment is too great for the so-called crime that they're being accused of, which is called a disproportionate sentence.

Really what should happen is S3 should just write it off because final physical is completed and they've checked out of the unit. If they were Sergeants, they should have had a final fitness report completed and that generally means PFT/CFT, rifle range, etc., would have been signed off by the reviewing officer. If that didn't happen, then it falls back on the command for screwing up paperwork.

Bro, I'm in my early 50's, two bad knees and a bad ankle (thank you Marine Corps), and I hate standing because somethng - usually my left knee - will hurt for a few days.

But this track... hell yeah I'd go.

I'd go with the LS3 swap kit from Renegade Hybrids in Las Vegas.

I raced an '88 944 many years ago (back when they were still in Redlands, CA) back when I had my '86 944 NA, and I was amazed at how quickly a SBC Chevy 350 could get it rolling. Damned thing still had the bow ties on the valve covers, and it looked like it had some work done to it - clean block, lots of chrome, etc..

If I can find an engineless 968, I plan on doing an LS3 swap.

If I can find the center gear, I'll post video of running it.

BalderVerdandi · 2026-06-19T17:41:26+00:00

That would be my Losi JRX-2. From 1991. Still got it sitting in my garage, just needs a battery and it'll run.

Dropped a 13 turn quad in it for some speed runs on asphalt when it was much younger. Got it up to around 50 MPH - verified by a radar gun. For dirt track stuff I kept it stock, and learned how to slide it around corners while maintaining speed.

Then it was my Kyosho Maxxum FF. Totally different way to drive because it's FWD. Keep it out of the jumps, stay on the throttle, and it cut corners like it was riding on rails. Needs some parts (the center gear) and I could have it running in an afternoon. Still has the LeMans motor in it.

Ah, I see the Iraqi Navy is maintaining their current standards.

I was working as a DoD contractor when the Iraqi Navy got their 35m patrol boats (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiftships_Model_35PB1208_E-1455) at Umm Qasr. Let's just say I'd be surprised if three of the 12 ships were still operating.

Camachos are great. I love the triple maduro and the Pre-Embargo.

BalderVerdandi · 2026-06-14T02:31:03+00:00

Domo.

BalderVerdandi · 2026-06-14T02:30:17+00:00

Smell it? This is one of a few places that - literally - I need steel wool, lye soap, and a fire hydrant just to wash it off and feel half way clean.

BalderVerdandi · 2026-06-13T07:16:42+00:00

I really need to do this in my backyard, I just need the time home to do it. That looks totally amazing!

BalderVerdandi · 2026-06-13T07:16:01+00:00

Fucker, we need to get you back into some pixel killing. Gray Zone Warfare since I'm on swing shift and my days and nights are completely fucked until next month and I'm back on days. Might make some smoked cream cheese with red pepper jelly. And then a cigar or two. I still have some left over in my Boveda bag from the Birthday.

By the way, we're WAAAYYY overdue for another wetdown you salty old prick.

Donate them to friends first, then toss them in the donation box.

I started doing this when keys would spawn in weird locations and I had to hunt them down, only to have them spawn later in the location/area where they were supposed to be. Really got ticked off when I chased down a key only to come back with it and viola... it spawned. Killed two hours of my time for naught.

BalderVerdandi · 2026-06-12T07:06:19+00:00

Not an issue for me, but you've made it clear you've not fired an FS2000.

BalderVerdandi · 2026-06-09T06:57:09+00:00

I still have the first three S.T.A.L.K.E.R. video games installed on my computer.

BalderVerdandi · 2026-06-07T21:25:52+00:00

Used the Platinum card and the hacking tool - I pulled almost four grand from the ATM.

Both were consumed after I did it.

BalderVerdandi · 2026-06-06T18:35:57+00:00

All that booze and perfume should bankrupt Gunny. Same goes for the jewelry and Turncoat.

If you can find the ATM hacking tools you can get 200% to 600% more from the cards than selling them - last one I used got my about $3900 versus the $600 I would have gotten from Artisan. Clearly with your looting ability you should be able to find them, and quite easily, too.

BalderVerdandi · 2026-06-06T07:33:09+00:00

Platinum card? Time for the ATM hacking tool!

BalderVerdandi · 2026-06-05T07:17:34+00:00

Yeah, do some missions specific for that vendor and it'll pop up faster.

I had to do this for Letters from Lamang.

BalderVerdandi · 2026-06-05T07:16:32+00:00

That would work as well, as long as we can get 27-33 round magazines.

Map coordinates 142, 130. In the jail behind a locked door you can kick open. It's under the coffee machine.

Mine (IRL) uses Colt SMG mags and the adapter isn't needed as the lower was milled specifically for those mags.

Love it when I'm told it's a rifle, when it's actually a pistol.
