  1. I call it wallet bashing. They're being smacked down by NATO's change purse.

  2. I was watching the Queen's funeral with my Chinese wife and niece. They commented on that the guard wasn't in perfectly straight lines. I pointed out that to get into the guard, you needed to be very special and highly experienced, they'd seen war. No one in the PLA can say this. The purpose of an army isn't to look pretty on parade.

  3.  @mediviclozada4027  the drone to the Kremlin (or that those in charge thought it was a believable story) says otherwise.

  4. No it didn't. It's perfectly natural for a clumsy person to beat himself up before tripping out of a window. Look at what happened to Nordberg in Naked Gun for an example of what a clumsy person can do.

  5. It's common for people who are completely innocent of things to hit the roof when a third party suggests it be investigated. Look at the CCP's response to Australia calling calling for an investigation into the pandemic origins. What possible doubts could anyone have of their innocence after that?

  8. It's good that you remember to give credit where it's due. It shows character. ​ @JakeBroe

  9. Have you actually met people? They're the worst.

  11. If you keep doing it every day, however.... And even increase the tempo. At some point they'd disperse enough to make sure that no individual dump was worth the expense, but that also seems like something that adds an extra layer of difficulty to the whole supply situation.

  12. Apparently about 50k rockets have been built with the current output being over 9k per year. So without cutting into reserves, enough to have each vehicle fire off a pod per day, 365 days a year.

  13. It was a big one to make up for being late

  14.  @Rylus571  not in Kyiv it won't be. Or will be it VR day?

  15. Still running Russia.

  16. Probably because Lukashenko is just someone you can ignore. He's not going to do anything more than he's done.

  17. The Holy Roman Empire. Which was neither holy nor Roman nor an empire.

  18. Or a big cigar. I was watching a Futurama episode earlier that had the sort of cigar that will cause this many explosions.

  19. "and end the war" is a line that can be ignored when coming from Russians. It's a thrust throwaway line that sounds good, but has been used in connection with so many things that didn't end the war it has no meaning

  20. Sounds like you should be directing this rant towards Hamas for targeting civilians from behind Gazan human shields. If you actually cared for any other reason than Israel is involved.

  21. Apparently I'm not allowed to quote Brick Top

  22. We saw the same thing in Hong Kong after pro government rallies. By contrast, it's worth checking the 2014 protests with students doing homework and cleaning up after themselves. Same thing with the 2019 protests, but there were more times when that wasn't feasible.

  23. A thousand bullets that don't hit something are irrelevant vs one bullet that does.

  24. Some stairs that were constructed outside a 20th storey window.

  25. When Russia is broken up, we should let China take the far eastern region. Mainly because they'll be unable to refuse (a large amount was their land) and in doing so they'll show future potential allies what it means to be an unlimited friend of the CCP.

  26. They're Russian. When they attacked the Japanese in Manchuria, they did exactly the same things to Chinese and Koreans that they did in eastern Europe. It showed that the revenge on Nazi collaborators excuse was just that. As excuse. It was them acting as they are. Nothing has changed.

  27. He's knocked out the closest thing the PRC had to a useful ally before it could be useful. He gave the west a years long head start on what it would have had in preparing for war. He enlarged NATO. He eliminated Russia as long term threat. What else do you expect from him? He's only human.

  28. How much would he need to trust a double to let him speak for him for this long?

  29. One of the parts of getting air superiority going is ensuring that the other side can't attack you from the air. So if they could simply turn the air above their army into a death trap for anything opposed to them, it would probably be OK.

  30. You can tell who has useful, loyal soldiers. (by Russian standards)

  31. Unless there's a two thirds majority to override a veto.

  34. Weren't hundreds of thousands of extra already meant to be in the field?

  36. And ammunition that can't make it to the front lines is functionally identical to no ammunition.

  37. Fortunately there's a huge amount of Russian money held in escrow. It won't be enough, but it's a nice start.

  38. Only F35s

  39. It's why it's better to just mock those who use that as a threat. Because they're clearly either morons, or they're such massive failures that nuclear war is an improvement for them.

  40. Anyone who thinks that putting all Russia's eggs in the Chinese basket should check out the treaties of Aigun and Peking. They haven't forgotten about them (or what the USSR did to them. Those things they did in eastern Europe that are excused by saying they were done in revenge for collaboration with the Germans were done in Manchuria and Korea. This includes shipping entire factories to Russia)
    2
  41. It's part of the Russian strategy to deny Ukraine the ability to hurt them by ensuring that anything that's worth attacking has already been destroyed.
    2
  42. The PRC will do whatever benefits the CCP's leadership. If they decide that the best they can get is reclaiming the land lost in the treaties of Aigun and Peking, you can expect them to develop a "conscience" (and expect gratitude from the world) before invading Russia. As one possibility.

  43. Or started

  44. As much as I see where you're coming from, with the paranoia about disease and all that, can you imagine him giving this much of a free hand to someone whose claim to the job was his ability to look like him?

  45. You can't see how this happens by accident? You're on a training exercise, you're walking along, you trip and you're over the border. You and a few friends try to walk to Kyiv to apologise in person, but the unreasonable people in the way refuse to let you do it. Then one misunderstanding leads to another and we've got what we have today. All completely innocent.

  46. If they cut off his feet, he doesn't get frostbite or need to learn to tie his shoes.

  48.  @budgetgaming2210  was that meant to be relevant to something? Or am I talking to a script that inserts the data before the first space into a random pointless comment?

  49. Lenders don't care why it can't pay back its debt. All they care about is that it can't pay it back. It's ironic. The Russian rouble is so strong, yet so worthless it can't even be used to repay debt.

  50. That's been a thing I've seen here among people I can actually verify are real. Not even the Russians support Russia.
