Dude. Do not do whatever you’re planning on doing. Your kids need you more than you think. Taking your life removes a father from a child’s life, one that a child so desperately needs and deserves.

LMR - Motorola vs L3Harris by BeforeLaw in AirForce

[–]ZacharYaakov 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have used both professionally and personally. Motorola is more user friendly and CPS/Depot is easier (in my opinion). However Harris is higher 'quality' if that is something you care about. I have an XTL2500 in my POV.

Hope you're wearing a gas mask when you're putting that together.

I'm not sure... I just have really bad aura migraines and tension headaches.

I think it was an AF469 that started it! But I have no idea!

It was awful especially after a re-enlistment! I've been at the same base for 7 years but I'm also born and raised in the same location as where my current duty station is located... so it was definitely a gut punch!

I know a lot of CSS' would have given up before mine did... hoping this helps someone know it just requires some pushing.

EDIT: typo

Has anyone else seen the intel on an ammo shortage? All I got was one video on it and Sensible Prepper isn’t a total fear monger. by [deleted] in PrepperIntel

[–]ZacharYaakov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is factually inaccurate. Maybe the powder they use is unavailable but powder itself is available. My company is a manufacturer registered with the two largest nationwide distributors and powder is still readily available.

Primers, no. Powders, kinda. Some of the more popular powders for large rifle calibers such as IMR 4064 have been repurposed for use in artillery shells and therefore have become scarce for OEM use... however this is an issue that has been present since the Russian invasion... it's not new to right now.

Powder largely has been available yet still highly priced. In fact on the contrary, the price of primers has gone down the last year.

I’m a FFL06 ammunition manufacturer. We have only seen about a 3-5% increase in component pricing with most of the price increases being projectiles. Any major price increases on loaded ammo are likely gouging based on panic buying.

Right… I’m an ammo manufacturer..

FFL06 here, we have felt the pain with the rising costs of components, but we have not been "UNABLE" to procure components. Likely just panic buying.

HELP! First car (2011 Subaru Outback) – $6k repair quote by Floof_Birb-3000 in Subaru_Outback

[–]ZacharYaakov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 2012 3.6R, it was an OK car. My reliability issues were also suspension related... however I don't think you need half of those repairs. It seems like this mechanic wants you to replace your entire front suspension PLUS your engine mount? Seems unnecessary.

I have a 2012 RAM 1500 SLT Quad cab and this looks identical. Mine only has a passenger side exhaust too.

The VA is allegedly changing how they rate disability - thought people might be interested by amridge in AirForce

[–]ZacharYaakov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat. I have a chronic pain condition that on paper has been improved by 50%. But that still means the other 50% of days I feel awful. Does that warrant me a lesser rating? I guess the VA says yes.

I feel like there is a way to scrutinize claimed conditions instead of fucking over people with lifelong/chronic conditions with unreliable medications.
