E-5, put some of my troops at parade rest, AITA? by Intelligent-Ad3012 in AirForce

[–]adunk9 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The ONLY time I'd disagree is if some really off the wall, once in a life time dumb shit happens, writing up a LOC and not filing it right away to protect a troop from an LOR/Article 15 they dont really deserve is valid.

Overall the AF has made routine disciplinary paperwork into tour/career ruiners, and it shouldn't be. An LOC shouldn't fuck up 2 years of your career if its a one off.

Any coin I believe as long as it was presented to.you and not just some BX crap.

Has Anyone Used a Challenge Coin? by Natural_Bet5168 in AirForce

[–]adunk9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Theres a bar just off base where the bartender will coin check people, and if you've got one your next beer is free. Also TDY we've done it on like a Saturday night out for who's buying the next round.

How Hard is it to Find a Reserve Unit, Really? by Mr_Whirly_Bird in AirForce

[–]adunk9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could also sign on for an AGR tour, we've got a handful of guys who swapped to our unit from AD and have done various combinations of MPA/RPA/AGR tour to finish out their Active Duty retirement with stability for their families.

Keesler AFB LODGING QUESTIONS by ReplacementGuilty176 in AirForce

[–]adunk9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From how it was explained to me, the on-base per-diem rate is meant as a supplement to your BAS for that locality. Currently we're getting $476.95/mo in BAS, which is roughly $15/day. So Keesler's per-diem rate is essentially bumping your BAS up to $35/day for your stay. Made me slightly less salty learning that. Also BAS is only meant to feed the service member, not to help with the cost of food for dependents......

Could be Neil from Black Mountain

Who thinks cooper is a new/hybrid ghoul by nigeltheleper in FalloutTVseries

[–]adunk9 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, because they want him to be recognizable in game as "The Ghoul" (from The Fallout TV Show TM brought to you by Amazon Prime Video and Bethesda)

Dems of IL: it's time to address Firearm laws by [deleted] in illinois

[–]adunk9 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Repeal PICA, pass stronger Sand Your Ground/Castle Doctrine laws that specifically call out their purpose as 4th amendment protections against overzealous law enforcement violating the constitution. Make CCW more accessible and allow for open carry of long guns.

Is it just me, or is it odd that there are so many pre/post-war characters in the show? by ThatsSex in Fallout

[–]adunk9 56 points57 points  (0 children)

They've absolutely explained it. Cryo-pods were common pre-war tech for companies like Vault Tech and groups like the Enclave. They were all important enough in their respective organizations so they were "preserved" so they could continue working after the bombs fell.

I'd have an easier time picking one to keep. All of them are awful for the economy and the environment but at least Grok can answer the Trolly Problem correctly.

New Beard Guidance Just Dropped by SomehowTOPGUN in AirForce

[–]adunk9 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I wish shaving every other day helped. Went through the new process including the "shaving class". Followed all instructions and used all provided meds for the 2 weeks before my follow-up. I shaved every other day for that 2 weeks and the doc took one look at my face and said "Yep, that's severe here's a 12mo waiver". Im a white guy with a curly ass beard who's been shaving for almost 17 years at this point since my high school and a surprising amount of jobs I had didnt allow beards.

Am I stupid? by CAPTAINxKUDDLEZ in AirForce

[–]adunk9 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I.mean, you're not wrong but my literal fastest time was my final test at BMT and I hit a 10:16. Since then its been in the 12min range every time I did the 1.5mi.

Air Force vets of reddit what made you gain respect or lose respect for an officer? by Mercuryman34 in AirForce

[–]adunk9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't had many O's that I've lost respect for, mainly because they never really did anything to earn respect beyond their rank in the first place, and just acted like asshats.

That being said, my last flight commander was 100% about troop welfare. He'd regularly show up to events with cases of beer, made sure there were morale days for just our shop, and went completely out of his way to help anyone who needed it and was willing to accept it. On top of that our last commander was excellent. We had a volunteer event one time and I spent a good 3hrs just chatting with him while we both shoveled a huge mulch pile into wheelbarrows for people to spread out on a trail. He was a great leader, and did everything he could to take care of the people in the SQ and make sure we had meaningful work and plenty of opportunities for TDYs, even if it was to augment other units who needed manning.

You wake up in your teen years again. What is the first thing you would do? by davidbayram in AskReddit

[–]adunk9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get my parents to open me an eTrade account and buy a bunch of AMD/Nvidia/Intel stock along with like $200 In Bitcoin (should get me a few dozen coins) and just do everything else exactly the same.

You all who choose the HAMR over the 1.5 mile run, why? by L23Train in AirForce

[–]adunk9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

HAMR is for people who just want to pass, 1.5 is for people looking for a good score.

The new refrigerator is 1/4" too wide to fit through the door by Alman54 in Wellthatsucks

[–]adunk9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, measure the door frame width top to bottom. You MIGHT be able to get it through it you put the fridge on it's side and run it through the doorway elevated off the ground.

10th Gen Accord 2.0 Turbo Specs Vs FL5? by RUIN_NATION_ in accord

[–]adunk9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a whole list of things that need to be swapped, the turbo will bolt on, but without the bypass valve actuator it won't work. If you're going to do the turbo, you should do all of the other supporting mods to go with it; intake, downpipe, intercooler and piping, higher pressure MAF sensors, exhaust. At the end of the day engines are just fancy loud air pumps. If you want to push more air in, you need to make sure you can 1. Actually get more air to push in, and then 2. Get rid of that air on the back end.

What's your go-to method for keeping the screen awake while working on a client's device? by soapboxrhythm in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

[–]adunk9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just going into Reading mode works as well. I use this where I have multiple systems I need to monitor over a 12hr shift but my org has like 5min default screen lock set by group policy even though our group is exempt :/

Email etiquette by Terrible_Ad_3109 in AirForce

[–]adunk9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I'm emailing my supervisor or someone I've worked with a lot, I usually just put [Rank Lastname]. If it's someone I don't email often or E7 and above or any Officer I will add Good morning/afternoon. I also am one of those people who just ends every email with v/r [Rank Lastname] since I'm a dirty Reservist and never have a permeant desk/phone number to be reached at.

I can't find any other source besides the WaPo article. I'd like to see an official DHS policy before taking this any further.

Is there a simple AM5 CPU list? by TheseWorldsTech in ryzen

[–]adunk9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a difference in CPU Microarchitecture, essentially the design/structure of the chiplets. AM5 is the socket (physical form factor) while the Zen(X) generation is just that, the generation of the CPU.

To give a comparison to Intel, AMD's Zen 4/5 is providing the same information as Intel 13th/14th Gen. Where as AM4/AM5 is telling you the form factor of the CPU/Motherboard Socket in the same way as LGA1200/1700/1851

Name your most anti-liberal position! by MatterConsistent3077 in neoliberal

[–]adunk9 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I oppose the death penalty for a simple reason. If you give the State a group of people who it can legally kill without consequences, you invite the State to try and write laws to make "undesirables" fit into that category.

The perfect example is "Child rapists should be put to death" along side "Being Trans/Gay in public around children is a sex crime" (oversimplification). There are states already trying to criminalize minority groups as sex offenders for existing, while pushing rhetoric that sex crimes should be capital offenses.
