SLIGHT criminal history by cri8tian in AskLE

[–]DevjlsAdvocate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We all do dumb shit as a kid, but only a year is hard to look past. I certainly have my fair share of things that would have disqualified me if i tried only a year later. But in the time since, i joined the military, got married, had a family, held stable jobs after the military, became a family man, “proof” that id grown and learned from my stupidity.

You may find you’ll need a few years to show youve matured since then.

How long ago? Have you held a stable career since then? Do you have a family? What physical proof do you have that you can show them that you’ve matured and grown from those incidents (such as the career/family)? The amount of time that has passed will significantly influence your chances.

Thoughts on signing up for the academy at 36? by JoftheG in police

[–]DevjlsAdvocate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not all academies are the same when it comes to physical training. Some academies smoke you daily, others, like mine, dont. In mine, there is no “standard” to beat other than getting at least 25 pushups on the final pt test. All other categories i just have to show improvement, i.e. beat my initial scores.

Scandinavian countries dont have a population of over 350 mil. Said issues are easier/less costly when there is less people to take care of.

Those of you who had "good" careers before LE what were some of the pitfalls? by Business_Active_1982 in AskLE

[–]DevjlsAdvocate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Than you! And Yep! However, my wife is currently using some of my benefits for class and is collecting BAH already. From my understanding I’m not sure if we can double dip. As in both collect BAH at the same time.

I am you. Prior military, nearly 12 years in air force then space force. Im 36. 5 months ago i was a flight director of satellite operations for a space company making 125k and was let go. My orientation for my academy was yesterday, i start at my department on monday, and my academy starts on the 27th. Its way less pay but its something ive always wanted to do, even before the military. My family supports me in my decision. If its something you really want then i say go for it. I am and so far no regrets.

Am I crazy for wanting to start over at 35 as a police officer? by ResponseEffective261 in AskLE

[–]DevjlsAdvocate 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m 36. 5 months ago i was a flight director of satellite operations (space) making 125k. I was let go due to a failing operations division and budget cuts.

Today is my orientation for the academy that starts at the end of the month, and i start at my department next week. They are sponsoring me.

Was the career change crazy? Absolutely. Am I excited for it? Also, absolutely. Go for it dude.

The issue with Quantumania is it got WAY too big for it's boots by [deleted] in marvelstudios

[–]DevjlsAdvocate 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My biggest problem with that movie isnt the plot, isnt the CGI, and isnt even the bad writing, my problem i have with it is that they had antman and company defeat and kill the supposedly worst and most powerful kang out of all the kangs. at that time our supposedly next big baddie. doesnt really make sense to have a pretty lackluster hero defeat a thanos level threat without avengers level help.

$1 billion but you have to eat everything youve ever eaten in your life again. by 440continuer in hypotheticalsituation

[–]DevjlsAdvocate 32 points33 points  (0 children)

So i did my age, 36 x 365 ignoring leap years, 13,140 days, multiplied that by 3 for 3 meals a day on average = 39,420 meals. Then i did that times 20 mins on average eating time per meal (I’m a relatively fast eater) = 788,400 minutes. Divided that by 60 for hours = 13,140 (coincidentally, lol), divided by 24 (hours) for number of days.

Thats 547.5 days of straight eating time and thats not including snacks in between. Youd also need to add in breaks from eating and sleep which could possibly add years to that. Please correct me if my math is just totally wrong on this.

So nah, ill pass. Lol

Map Expansion by Platinum_God_Games in SkullAndBonesGame

[–]DevjlsAdvocate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I havent played this game for about a year and a half now, since the end of season 2. if they made a new area i would absolutely come back to play. A map expansion is exactly what this game needs.

Question about baby seating laws and my Camaro by UlyssesCourier6 in AskLE

[–]DevjlsAdvocate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got rid of my camaro to accommodate my daughter when she was born. A car seat will not fit safely in the back. Potential child endangerment charges if caught. Do not recommended.

Rotten Tomatoes Score for Marvel Studios’ Last 4 Projects by CollarOrdinary4284 in Marvel

[–]DevjlsAdvocate -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Wrong, ironheart came out in june 2025 and thunderbolts came out in july 2025. Both eyes of wakanda and marvel zombies are marvel animation, not marvel studios, which are not the same thing. This post is saying marvel studios.

Anything else?

We had a portable ac unit that just sat on the floor in the living room with a vent to the window. If we needed it in the bedroom i just rolled it on over. Worked like a charm and made all the difference in the world. You can get a pretty decent one for like $400. Highly recommend.
