  1. Simultaneously encouraging and infuriating. it seems like we need US private DOD contractors to sell designs to European partners (or whatever it takes) to accelerate European production. Is that possible and happening to any extent given ITAR? Would it require a literal act of congress to allow? Is the EU sharing designs from country to country to optimize production?
  2. Except… oh. I see what you did there
  3. 100% self induced. If he would’ve just continued to keep his political opinions to himself and focus on his companies, this wouldn’t be happening.
  4. But an AK with 2 magazines is plenty, comrade! Go hide under that burned out tank
  5. Even the FWD sedans I’ve owned would’ve navigated that segment of trail without issue
  6. “To a person” … “everyone” it’s like they get paid per word.
  7. Do we really need to talk shit? Show some fuckin’ sportsmanship, act like you’ve been there before, etc.
  8. I turned it off for a couple hours, checked the schedule and couldn’t believe the loss wasn’t already posted. Turned on Craig Way — HOLY SHIT WERE NOT DEAD YET
  9. Lummus keeping Texas alive.. Texas trails 2-5 after 4 innings
  10. Generation blaming is dumb. There’s a lot of sadness all over the world and people are struggling from every age group. Social isolation and cost of living and so many other stressors. The modern internet seems really good at pushing people over the edge
  11. I think people generally just try to find the positives in horrible situations. That and our bar for police officers is pretty fuckin low
  12. You’re oversimplifying the battle of the Black Sea and the conditions that could lead to Russia’s defeat. Why are you here making these seemingly intentionally obtuse arguments? Did you get booed out of the CR or something?
  13. Except it does matter. A lot. An Odesa invasion would’ve been much easier for Russia with that fleet that included several landing ships. Much of Ukraine’s economy is agricultural exports through the Black Sea. Those went to zero when Russia dominated the sea. Now they’re back to like 60% of pre-war levels if I recall. To sustain this “stalemate” until Russia breaks requires a mostly functional Ukrainian economy.
  14. 1 to 9? on a Friday? after the last few Fridays? to Houston? okay this shit might be over
  15. A few more tanks or shells? Fuck you. Offensives are utterly pointless right now. They’re wildly inefficient. The only option now is to kill invading Russians as cheaply as possible: make them respect the threat of artillery and use $600 FPVs to kill individuals and a handful of them to get vehicles. Of course that won’t WIN the war. Are you regarded or something? The lines are established as long as supply levels are simply maintained. Stop rug-pulling Ukraine and these lines will stay static while Russia spills blood for meters. Russia has already LOST this war. Ukraine has to destroy Russia’s o&g economy to WIN this war.
