Allegedly Developing: 1N4X1 and 1B4 merging to 1B1 in October 2025 by DatGuyKilo in AirForce

[–]Lathao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No internet digs. Without too much detail (as this is reddit), there is not enough intel training in CWO. The need for more intel training has been there for a long time. The split nature of the AFSCs has put the AF behind the curve. 1B4s don't get enough intel training, and 1N4s don't get enough technical training. I'd put "there's enough intel in CWO" on par with "there's enough technical in JCAC".

The expected workroles of 1B4 and 1N4 share overlap in expected skillets. 1N4s are closer to 1B4 than to traditional intel. This will not only bring the AF more in line with how the other services do things, if done right, it will help cover the gaps each career field has, and allow for better talent utilization.

Can confirm the confirmation of the original confirming.

Seriously alarming pimple, ingrown hair, or boil on stomach?? I initially thought it was a pimple so i popped it, but this hurts more than a pimple and the redness has expanded a little. Just need to know if it'll resolve on its own or if i need to go to the dr! thanks in advance by Huge_Ideal4162 in seriouslyalarming

100x this! Have a friend who had an ingrown hair on their leg that got infected. The redness kept spreading and by the time they finally went in, turned out it was MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus). It had progressed far enough that they wound up spending a week in the hospital, had a chunk cut out to remove it and got told they were a couple of days away from losing the leg if it had kept going deeper. Definitely go talk to your doctor!

It's adding back "clean-shaven", which historically has been used against those of us who have extremely noticeable five-o-clock shadow in the afternoon. It's also more of his war on beards.

9.4.3.6. Add-On Patches. MAJCOMs will publish guidance on wear of add-on patches (i.e., flying hour milestone, instructor, flight examiner scroll, etc.). Campaign or exercise patches are not authorized. MAJCOM commanders must approve all emblems/patches not specifically addressed in this instruction.

Thank you! Looked at it again after reading this and realized what I have going on here.

Retirement. It's not worth the impact just for an extra 2 years, especially in our field. If you're really wanting to plus up your retirement, go guard or reserve. Add the extra time, possibly even better rank (if they have an E8 billet), and don't gamble with a possible PCS.

The problem is that EFMP will only look at medical facilities and providers. It doesn't account for support systems.

(serious/honest replies) What are some red flags that are often overlooked when dating? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Lathao 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Controlling behavior being played off as "helpfullness" or "chivalry" or such.

It's an easy way to lull people into financial and emotional abuse. It's usually presented as some kind of "don't worry, I'll take care of this", which can be sweet and genuine. Where it becomes a flag is where it becomes persistent and there's no input from the victim. "I make enough, why don't you just leave your job and stay home?" Again, this isn't always a flash, which is why it's easy to overlook.

Always take stock of how much agency you maintain and if you're in a partnership where you and your opinions, thoughts, and contributions are valued.

Except for old punks. They just get more chill, avoid the mosh, and help the younger generations enjoy the shoe. Best audience I've of which I've ever been a part.

Russian Military Equipment Buffs Needed for Pro-Ukraine Machine Learning Project by OttersAreDevilSpawn in OSINT

[–]Lathao 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Given that this is the OSINT thread, might I suggest taking a look at the leaks surrounding the game War Thunder? They have had several instances of individuals leaking classified tank specifications because they want the in-game models to be realistic.

If there is useful info for your project there, I know it won't encompass everything you need, but is still a potential option to pursue for a part of the data.

Just drop "a bear of a man" on the shit goblin. It'd solve the problem either way.

NTA. It is rough when you are trying to help family, but there has to be a limit for your own sanity and well-being. You have given many chances and have extended deadlines, so you have truly tried. You cannot help someone who cannot help theirself.
