  1. Today
  2. At this point I just want to move. If I still don't have an assignment by 28 Feb, I will probably reach out to the assignments team and let them know that I can move ASAP. Not worried about UPT base preference at this point. Ready to go where there is an open slot.
  3. Philosophically, Anthropic. Pete terminating the contract is right also. Threatening punitive actions will result in a lawsuit and DoW attempts to use the software against design probably wont go well, discovery and all. Anthropic is also kinda wrong here because they engaged in a dance with the Devil and thought it would be money.
  4. If you’re an AI company and want to do business with the DOD, then you have to be OK with them implementing it in ways that will result in death and destruction. If you don’t like that, then don’t do business with the DOD.
  5. It seems like the issues are with filling the earlier class dates at Laughlin, hence the “pick up and move now” offers people are getting. Similar to what was mentioned in this thread where people are getting offered to go with a March RNLTD. Curious if those of us who put Laughlin first and are still waiting for dates are also going to have an earlier class date. Will let y’all know
  6. There is a meeting today between Hegseth and Anthropic. Anthropic's AI, Claude, is integrated within the Palantir Software used in the Maduro raid. Anthropic found out and informed the DoD Claude's terms of service stipulates is should not be used for applications involving violence, weapons development, or mass surveillance. Claude has guardrails in place to impede/prevents its use for such. It appears Claude is the only AI model approved for use on SIPRnet. Hegseth is unhappy. He says all AI models with DoD contracts need to remove any such guardrails so the full capabilities can be used by the DoD for "all lawful purposes." Hegseth is threatening to terminate Antropic's contract and deem them a "supply chain risk". Who is right? Hegeseth or Anthropic?
  7. CH has been very clear on his criticism of dumb shit being said across the entire spectrum, as has just about everyone else here. Start living in reality instead of making up/implying blatantly false things.

  10. Would have booted his dumb ass out of the locker room. Such a poser
  11. Oh, you care what a politician says now? Noted.
  12. Such a great game!

  14. A buddy at Pensacola told me this morning that around 50 CSO Lts on casual status were pulled to go to Laughlin for UPT. Between these and my personal experience exchanging messages a couple times with AFPC, there seems to be some kind of pilot-select crisis at Laughlin, like they chronically under-selected students to attend UPT there. If the Air Force just under-allocated 150 pilot slots in a single fiscal year that's kind of alarming.
  15. If it comes to that but I’m cool with working by, with and thru trustable Mexican military units, members and political leaders; the Mexican constitution and people are not interested in that methinks. Making Mexico a policy priority for the US and assisting where we can is worth the money, effort and risk. Like Germany and the Zimmerman Telegram, I’ve always thought China might put the money and effort into making a string of problems for us regionally by courting and supporting a change in policy and orientation of countries like Mexico. Helping them (and others) fix this security problem and improving relations (no amnesty for that though) is the chess move to block the Chinese, improve our security and help Latin countries further develop.

  18. Yesterday
  19. I've been playing around with Openclaw, and it's a pretty cool glimpse into the future. I'm building my personal AI assistant, and with only conversational text, it's programmed custom flight monitoring scripts to track my airline flights, and a "crew journal" that will extract my trips them dig down to the flights and get the crew members I flew with, then after I land it'll all me if I want to record any notes about anyone. Then the next time I go to fly, it'll recap my previous entries about the crew member so we can resume the conversation instead of playing the awkward-intro game every time we fly together. No coding, just tell it what you want. It definitely benefits from the user having a coding background, because you know what to ask for. But that won't be the case in a couple years.
  20. I hope Claudia Sheinbaum authorizes us (not that the current administration would really care about asking if it came down to it) to use everything in our arsenal including Hellfire's to assist. Not surprisingly the Cartels are as heavily armed as any insurgency with armored vehicles and RPGs
  21. The latter. The KC-46 has an upgraded APU from a 767-200 due to the amount of power needed for the RVS system and to mitigate OBIGGS resets. To use power carts, it either takes one bigger external power cart or two of the smaller ones used on the KC-135.
  22. I see your point. Unfortunately, deaths occur more often than they should because something was unknowingly laced with Fentanyl. Definitely a risk with anything not manufactured commercially.
  23. Are the APUs actually prematurely failing or are they being run on the ground way past the normal amount that an APU is normally run? I've heard the latter...
