Goddamn congress. They're passing a CR until the 20th of December (and likely passing another one because lmao at doing budget stuff doing impeachment + holidays) so we've had to institute budget austerity on my project. I had previously secured additional funding from the main project to keep my team going, but it turns out the main project just got screwed by someone else that we previously struck a deal with and in turn *I* get screwed. Because of the wall.

So now I have to start downsizing my team effective 1 December, getting increasingly liberal with cuts until March when I will have to cut myself. New funding won't kick in until May. I'll be fine since I can keep myself busy for 2 months, but some of the folks I'm about to cut off the project in two weeks are going to most likely move to other projects permanently.

Trump finds yet another way to screw me over.

Walls work!

Fresh sourdough is always fantastic.

That takes 2 weeks or so to make.

Make some apple bread. Flour, apple juice instead of water, little salt, honey, unsalted butter, cinnamon, and a granny smith diced apple put in half way through kneeding.

It smells god damned amazing when you toast it.

So the VA has likely killed another vet. Not by direct action tho. More like the greed of a hospital for a VA payout.

My wifes friends husband is a vet. He and his wife both also work for a hospital as an x-ray tech and nurse. So they have pretty good insurance all around. But because he has VA insurance hospitals know they can get them to pay out whatever (according to my wife whom is also a nurse I've never dealt with the VA in any way). He was in the hospital for treatment of an infection. No idea on details. But he also needed a heart valve transplant. They decided that now while he is in the hospital they should also do the valve replacement. It failed. He was transported while still opened up to cedar sinai 2 days ago to be put on some very specialized equipment to pretty much run his whole body that is only at that hospital. He was not expected to last through last night. Don't know if he is still alive but it is doubtful.

Now a bit fat no no is opening up people for surgery while they have an infection. I really hope his wife can sue the unholy gently caress out of that hospital.

What does a USN MS1 do? Particularly one that retired in like 97? They were the honored are troops flag waving person of the game tonight.

Google tells me it was Mess Specialist Petty Officer first class, but like WTF did they do?

I will note that unlike other honorees she was really into it and seemed to enjoy the attention for her service that ended 20 years ago. Mostly they just kinda stand there and be embarrassed or annoyed.

Generally they are the LPO (mid boss) over 6-20+ dudes. Depends on the stationing but they can be involved in tasks such as ordering and menu planning and if they ever cook it's badly done.

edit : oh and it's one of the jobs with the minimum to get in asvab req.

And if they retired at 20 years as only an E-6 they got passed over for chief (e-7) for 8+ years.

Brother Lasers are the AK-47s of printers.

I bought a brother laser. It tripped every single breaker it was tried on. I called up support and was told 'uhhh you need to have an electrician check your house before we will do anything'.

House modern with zero electrical issues. Sent that poo poo back to amazon and bought a HP. It's had zero issues, cost less, is color instead of black & white only, and has more features.

gently caress brother.

edit : the brother printer obviously had really lovely capacitors or something but they would not admit it.

Is there a place to reliably get masks of any variety right now dust, surgical or otherwise? At a minimum, I've got to go to my school to progress some research on Friday, and I've got masks on standby there for that particular purpose, but otherwise I just did the CDC no-sew thing with some post-Navy White T-s that I got that didn't get used because I got the wrong size. I would prefer not getting made fun of when I went to the grocery store. Masks are mando as of tomorrow in PA.

Honestly wish I had a bandana right now and could just rock with that.

Just watched 1917. Hell of a movie, incredible suspense aided by an amazing score and what a drat production.

Plot didn't make a lot of sense to me, but it was so well done I pretty much forgot about the premise after like ten minutes and just enjoyed the ride.

If there's a making of, that's one making of I absolutely need to see. Because goddamn...two takes.


...how.

It's not actually 2 takes. It's a ton of clever editing. They said they had to do this one shot over 17 times because a lighter would not light up.
