Open invite to merge this with the "Things to Listen to While Drunk on BO" thread...but here's the equipment angle.
Does anyone here have a sweet stereo setup? Thinking about ditching my 2000's era 5.1 stuff and buying some restored vintage equipment for a 2.1 setup. Or, after 10 years and 1500+ hours of jet noise and another 10-20 to go, should I even bother?
What did you end up going with?
I recently acquired a restored vintage receiver and had it in my living room for 2 months before I got vetoed by the wife due to no remote control. It now resides in the bedroom.

Looking for advice on short term investments. I've got a sizeable chunk of change from selling my house that I need to figure out what to do with. I'm going to be renting for the next couple years and then looking to buy again when the market has hopefully returned to sanity. Main concern is just not losing buying power to inflation but also want to make sure I'm not going to lose half of it in the next correction. Any advice?
Depends on when you need the money...within next couple years? Savings account (preferably "hi yield") would likely be your best bet. If you don't really need it for 5-10 years or more, your options are more varied, and many on here and elsewhere would suggest dollar cost averaging (or not who cares) into a low-cost index fund.
Alternatively you could go put it on black.

If we are now in the 5 IPZ years to O5, then I don’t see how the 2 and out rule applies.
I am sanctuaried for retirement now. And punching out first chance.

The AF still has to follow federal law (DOPMA), which stipulates the amount of looks officers get. I'm guessing this is part of the reason why the 5 IPZ idea hasn't been implemented.

I feel like that's starting to say maybe the F-35 isn't what we needed, without actually saying the F-35 isn't what we needed.
But we'll keep buying them just the same.Or maybe just an acknowledgement of material reality vs. cost of stealth systems? Do we need an all-stealth force to effect deterrence?

Just an update..
The C-130 squadron is almost 60% overmanned. Guys are averaging 5 hours a month if they are lucky. 3 UAVs just came down to our squadron and two of them went to brand new copilots who got here just a few months ago. On top of this, they are denying extensions for everyone, some people had their extensions taken away (which means single guys will be here two years and married guys three instead of three/four years respectively.)
Drunken nights in Tokyo are great but in terms of flying, grim outlook for any pilots coming in.
How's the manning now?

This will likely be the event that causes the civilians to embrace us and toss off their backwards ways.
