If they've restricted the story...sounds like they are making editorial decisions and have therefore decided to be a publisher, and not a platform. I seem to remember Zuckerberg arguing the opposite in front of congress.
-
Maybe 4Chan just wanted it to take off...like the OK symbol and milk being synonymous with white supremacy.
-
My line number. It's in the 500+ range out of 555 for LAF-A. And since it's order of merit instead of date of rank...
-
So like I thought...I'm very close to the bottom. But...better to be the last Lt Col promoted than the first Maj to be passed over. I'll take what I can get.
-
When I did mine, they told me they scheduled everyone automatically. I talked to a Lt Col at AFPC. Never talked to Autumn.
-
So I'll probably be at the bottom...
-
If it's only 15 minutes over Zoom, that may be a sign it's good news. If you were passed over, there's physical paperwork to sign, and the boss would likely set aside more time to talk about it. I'm pulling for you! Good luck!
-
How long did they book the meeting for, and is it their office or yours?
-
I was told in person...but I'm at a GSU with like 5 total active duty, so...
-
I don't know how you got passed over with those strats.
-
I'd argue that Ghandi was a damned effective leader who faced some real significant challenges. Clearly he had some kind of leadership ability.
-
Yes...and shockingly, got picked up 1 APZ with a 5/10 push line and P on the PRF. Sometimes there is justice in the system.
-
I think one of those spears with a taser on the end from Jurassic Park might be more entertaining.
-
It is higher than usual. IIRC, APZ has historically been low single-digits.
-
Yep. Did the same in March when all this started. Our laptops were VPN-ready and had very little issue getting into the base network (occasionally, if you procrastinated, the VPN server would fill up and you couldn't get on until others disconnected). Forwarded the office phones to cell phones. My office set up an internal Slack channel for quick instant-messaging/file sharing (nothing classified, obviously, but normal NIPR stuff was fine). It actually worked pretty good for the IG office.

Has any president come out and said "I'll step down if I lose the election"? This is a recycled talking point from the GW Bush years. I'll believe it when I see it.

Maybe, but how do you fight an enemy like China without mass? What happens when they shoot down 5 of your 20 B-2s and 10 of your ~50 B-1s in the first week? How do you continue to mass effects without the depth on the bench to replace those losses? The F-22 is an awesome aircraft, but what happens when your 4-ship of F-22s encounters 32 J-10s? At some point, you have to start planning to the idea that losses are going to happen, and you need to be able to launch the next day's ATO. You can't do that if you only have a small handful of planes you're planning to task day after day.

I doubt they want to overshadow the E-5 release even if the list is ready.
-
-
I can't imagine how they got enough material for that. In person seemed like we were getting out early every day and even that was after they stretched the material as far as it would go.
-
Maybe it was my lack of ASBC that caused me to be passed over for O-5 last year.
-
They will be disappointed in the results
-
Fun. I was told the day prior to the public release. And then because I have a common name, I spent the next day telling my bros that I did not, in fact, get promoted.
-
Good news everyone...20 points for the waist measurement is automatic! Now you can get really fat to avoid the 365, while not getting punished for failing a PT test. Win-win.

So using Soviet weapons on an American political ad is "keeping your shit together" and "looking good"? What the hell are you talking about?
