@markokloos.bsky.social I'm rereading the Frontline series. It really hits different with the specter of war with China looming and a decade more service time. It was a good story with well written characters.
Now, understanding the burdens of a senior noncom, parts of this are almost too heavy.

Although I of course, was elsewhere at the time, I am told a woman wearing a really great hat encountered Dave McCarty in a hotel lobby and called him everything but a child of God. At quite high volume. Possibly with some profanity.
I am also told the woman with the hat had quite a turn of phrase.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world to abandon the light of receivers and speakers for disposable e-waste that costs _much_ more for a _far_ worse experience. Cannot stress enough how absolutely suck-ass all this stuff is compared to what you can find at a thrift store.
I finally got fed up with Sonos last year and got a receiver and passive speakers. It’s incredible that we had a modular, interoperable, durable sound system paradigm 50 years ago that’s only gotten cheaper, but all the hype goes towards app-mandatory devices that brick after two years.
