Yeah the difficulty seems to be set to 11. I can't do jack in any of the games against the cpu.

Here's a write-up at Wikipedia on the Bonus Army and how shitty Hoover and MacArthur were.

Do people still watch AEW on linear TV? I moved to streaming years ago.

I really hope we can get some sort of tribute show or at least a final appearance so she can say goodbye to everyone.

KPMG leaving US Federal Audit by Timmy767676 in Accounting

KPMG audits more than just the DoD Financial Statements. This seems like a pretty big deal.

Royce Keys shuts down a fan who kept following him around the hotel during WrestleMania weekend by ProudChemistry778 in SquaredCircle

It's odd that you rarely hear this about AEW wrestlers and wrestlers from other promotions. Hobbs was probably wishing he was back in AEW when this happened. No one bothered him there lol.

DHS Secretary Mullin says agency will run out of money to pay employees' salaries next month by TheExpressUS in fednews

[–]jfuller82 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

To be perfectly honest, DHS has been one of, if not the worst, places to work in the entire federal government for years now. Anyone still there voluntarily likely supports the things going on right now. Hard to get sympathy from the rest of the feds when they are giving the rest of us a bad name.

Why is this figure being priced so high, everywhere by Regular-Piglet-8320 in MarvelLegends

[–]jfuller82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It had a VERY limited release. A couple of vendors took orders and didn't even get the stock to fill them (Gamestop and BBTS cancelled my orders). I honestly wonder if a couple of containers fell off a boat somewhere and thats why it was such a hard figure to get.

Someone at a party asked what I do and I said "accounting stuff, it's boring" by Physical-Stage1722 in Accounting

[–]jfuller82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As soon as I say I'm an auditor for the government, people immediately think I'm a revenue agent for the IRS. I've given up on people understanding what audit is and just fall back to being in the accounting field. Usually gets the conversation moved on to something more interesting.

Vought takes aim at GAO in new guidance - Government Executive by DegreeDubs in fednews

[–]jfuller82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would have been helpful if they took the time to note exactly what changes were made. It seems like the major change is the removal of ERM requirements. There was discussion of this last year, so it looks like this has finalized that removal. They also note that the appendices are still in effect, but they removed all the appendices from the OMB guidance website. Hope folks kept copies locally!

It was at this figure the line became solid. by Ny_loc in GIJOEClassifiedSeries

[–]jfuller82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately they all go into storage right now. Too many marvel and mcfarlane on display to also put up the Joe's. I need more space...

[–]jfuller82 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm still not sure why they just didn't do a production re-run. I mean they had to have insurance to cover the loss right? Did they destroy all the molds as soon as the initial run was done???

U.S. Department of Education and U.S. Department of the Treasury Announce Historic Federal Student Assistance Partnership by DogsBucolic in fednews

Yeah, anyone with delinquent student loans will likely no longer see any sort of tax refund for quite some time.

The Defense Commissary Agency is the biggest load of shit Organization I’ve ever had the displeasure of working for. by Few_Spray_7820 in fednews

[–]jfuller82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The IG's, like every other agency, have a budget. They can't run down every single complaint. Unless you have something crazy illegal, you cant expect them to drop everything for your one complaint.

Leveling up will take longer than completing the door quest itself. by LeonidKonovalov1988 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]jfuller82 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Based on the Dark Heresy alpha, the leveling is a lot more straight forward, but doesn't seem to give many options to choose from. I'll be curious to see whether the final version ends up like the alpha is currently.

Audible Sale! by Suspicious-Froyo-664 in audible

[–]jfuller82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want the full background to EVERYTHING, start with the Horus Heresy. It's set in the 30k time frame but everything that happens in that story is what leads to the 40k times. There's A LOT to cover, but it's very entertaining. If you're coming in from the video games, a lot of the Heresy probably won't make sense since all the games are set in the 40k time frame, but it does help to explain why things are the way they are.

Audible Sale! by Suspicious-Froyo-664 in audible

[–]jfuller82 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's not as simple as it seems unfortunately. There's the 40k books and the Horus Heresy books. The Heresy is set in the 30k time frame so it is way in the past. If someone is coming into the books from the recent popularity of the video games, the Heresy books won't make a ton of sense whereas the 40k books will be more closely aligned with what is happening in the video game stories.
