God damn it Poland 2, leave Ukraine alone.

I didn’t make sweeping generalizations I’m making a comment based on what is visible in the text. I’m sure not all Russians are like this but I’m not talking about all Russians where did you get the impression that I was?

Remember back in the '90s when everyone used to wear windbreakers? The Russians are just 35 years behind the times, they’ll get here by about 2055

So they’re angry that other people have it better than them and the solution is to make life terrible for all those people rather than demand something good of your own government?

I don’t think Russian’s a human. How on Earth do they think like that, if other people have it better than you, clearly the problem is with your country. Who comes to the conclusion that the problem is the other country.

Anyway imagine lusting after ikea furniture. Someone should tell them that we think it’s all crap. That will really drive them.

Just go the Apple route. And to put, rather smugly, “designed in California” on it.

Everyone always forgets about the Indonesian Ukrainian wormhole.

When having a proxy war it’s always a good idea to ensure that you are the side with the proxy. Otherwise it’s just a war for you.

Russia isn’t fighting a proxy war with NATO, NATO is fighting proxy war with Russia though.

Doesn’t look too bad. Looks like Texas being taken out entirely so I’d say it’s a win in the long run.

At the same time there were a lot of homeless charities do actually tell you that it’s better to donate to the charity than is to the homeless person. Because they will just spend the money (obviously) whereas the charity can actually enforce change they can make use of the money in ways that will help more than just one person.

Of course the real thing to do would be to get into politics and actually affect political change but that’s difficult because politics has momentum like everything else and it’s difficult to get it to radically change stuff quickly.

Going to say Stalin really does have the best mustache action.

Bold, military leader. Checks all the boxes.

Optical fiber is really not very flexible. It doesn’t like sharp corners, it has pretty fast dropout, and if it gets banged against something it’ll break.

It’s good for infrastructure that doesn’t move, it’s not fantastic for controlling vehicles remotely. That’s why remote control submarines don’t use it and underwater is probably a more forgiving environment than in the air.

Given that the Russians took down all of Ukraine’s telecoms only to realize that that meant that they couldn’t communicate either, and had to therefore use insecure systems does make me think that perhaps they haven’t thought it through.

I think it was just a very resilient cow. But we got him in the end.

I can think of about 500 easier ways to do this. I can’t imagine them doing it the complicated way, when the easy way works just as well, costs less, and is less prone to malfunctioning.

I just find it funnier that they have to ring the bell. Human nature to press the button.

Also thinking about it I have a doorbell like that and it rings every time a bird flies past. It is supposed to not detect birds, leaves and people driving past on the road, it’s supposed to only detect humans but it 100% doesn’t work. I can totally see something like this malfunctioning and just going off because a leaf got blown past it.

Do not press this button if you press this button it will detonate the bomb.

“Oh, I wonder if it really will. I’m just going to press it a little bit.”

Neutral, noun;

Meaning to side with Russia in a war against an independent sovereign nation state

Definitions are weird aren’t they?

It is depressing how people are prepared to betray their country just for a date.

Excuse me I have an argument to win on the war thunder forums.

Wait I’m confused, is It confirmed that Ryan Reynolds spying on the United States? Got to give him credit for hiding in plain sight.
