AreWeDrunkYet posted:In theory it makes sense. The military has a guaranteed federal budget and often outgrows perfectly serviceable equipment. Why not throw some surplus stuff to law enforcement that doesn't have the same requirements about interoperability, etc? No reason not to make public spending more efficient.

Nuclear War posted:Little do they know that being a real army man isn't really all the movies make it out to be. But I guess these guys are all 'I was gonna be a SEAL' How many of those guys do you think would be surprised about having to learn how to swim?

Is that an ASI course like vehicle recovery? Because that sounds like some H8 quals poo poo. I know the army throws people in pools from time to time. I picked an mos that didn't have me jumping in pools.

H8 was one of the coolest and worst things Ive ever done in the Army. I had to throw my ACU set away that I wore into the "pond"

I had to throw my ACU set away that I wore into the "pond" I was a holdover waiting on orders and I missed opting into H8 school because I took a four day pass and hosed off for a weekend. Never stopped my unit in Korea from assigning me a HEMTT wrecker.

I was supposed to do it... 3 times? One time someone died so they canned it, one time the generators outside got struck by lightning, and I think someone died again the day before we were supposed to go out for time number 3.

Maybe don’t be a rancid dick to the folks just trying to help. Or rage against whatever imaginary machine you’ve dreamed up. You do you. G*d bless.

Saw this recently: https://www.forbes.com/sites/tommyb...sh=36b99f1058a3 Turns out the Trump campaign accounts for 3% of all credit card transaction disputes in the nation. The campaign also had to refund $122 mil due to pre-checked recurring donation boxes.

I could give him the benefit of the doubt and say that was purely a thought experiment. Like "Beep Boop Robot brain says it costs the company $15 of your time vs $30 of my time" but I won't because that guy is a goober with consistently lovely opinions.
