  1. All twenty T-14 Armatas inbound to make for fun M-777 targets
  2. Same thread shows one of our RQ-4B Global Hawks spending its entire range encircling something from the Black Sea Fleet, while a report from the account states that 5 vessels from that fleet are carrying a total of 32 Kalibrs set to volley into Ukraine over the next 24-72 hours.
  3. We've all established the novel coronavirus originated from China, be it wet market or virology lab leak. Several other pandemics originated from China too, including variants of the avian flu and a swine flu with human pandemic potential. Like Covid-19, China's response should be enough for us to continue our decoupling posture from China. Their officials knew of the outbreak weeks prior, but travel associated with the Chinese New Year really kicked off its global spread. What's changed since?
  4. Interesting that with a population of just 490,000, Kaliningrad has already lost ~74,000 able-bodied men.
  5. Sir, this is the Ukraine thread. Therefore, сука блять, иди на хуй!
  6. Those hypothesis go way further than necessary. With accession into the EU, with border security, Ukraine is ripe to become the union's biggest trading partner. Economic development opportunities are incredible, from precision manufacturing, to shipbuilding, to petrochemical... and those are the trades they're already good at. I have an old Ukrainian software engineering contact who's since started his own firm. They are a bright, crafty bunch who just need security and an honest seat at the table.
  7. ^where does that number align with what Trent Talenko tweeted two weekends ago stating RU's deployed losses were closer to 200,000?
  8. Chineses just chasing Ruble on this but I wish Western media would put their shit on blast and sanction Chinese industry which operates close enough to military industry for the CCP to realise we're watching their shady asses. Aren't we all watching them closely for action upon Taiwan within the next 2-3 years?
  9. Putin is losing respect in the Kremlin, which leads to more leaders falling down stairwells and out of windows, as they're burdened with the blame or seen as potential opposition threats. Unfortunately, as more damages mount, the more extreme Putin's response may be, especially once the security of Crimea is threatened: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/putin-rebellion-russia-ukraine-war-failures-6tw7mrqh0
  10. So... wages are surely the last domino to follow, now that we've cemented a new price for everything, right?! 🤡
  11. Detroit-area dealers have Bronco inventory at MSRP. Don't play dealership games, they have 8,000 competitors and archaic laws are the only thing keeping their racket alive.
  12. With its reputation of the Hårsfjärden incident, I'm not sure anyone wants to ask the Swedes what's going on in their waters.
  13. I assume the "blade" is sealed and not serviceable internally, but swappable with other capacities? A dual or 4-slot enclosure with embedded RAID controller would be tits.
  14. Kinda jelly for those who can take advantage of this project; I migrated to notebooks long ago and don't have donor PCIe space to give this a shot, but assume the intent of this project is for an Enterprise-type device (server/workstation-class). Count me in when this is repackaged in an external enclosure with a Thunderbolt-4 HBA, though at that point, it won't necessarily need the fastest NVMe.
  15. This almost looks like CGI, and yet, they hunker down over an inbound grenade
  16. "This is why Rittenhouse" Sandmann had sought $1.25 billion from eight news organizations, but a Federal judge dismissed his libel suit against Gannett, for $195M. It was ruled those media sources reported opinion protected by the First Amendment. He probably had a better case for settling out of court, but his counsel ran with the expectation for a bigger pay day.
  17. Lumber seems to be on the rebound already, though a small Fed rate hike could slap it down one last time: https://tradingeconomics.com/commodities
