Not the best of looks for SpaceX, but those were pulled out of circulation ahead of time - Ukraine knew they’d go offline or something,  also, regardless of what Musk has said, plenty of countries and orgs are footing the bill, and the Pentagon is still negotiating.

That first part doesn't appear to be the case. The Ukrainian official said it's a huge problem for their military. The terminals were purchased by Ukraine, Space X is charging $2500/month for the connection. They were removed, because Ukraine can't pay that.

The recent outage started on October 24 and was described by one person briefed on the situation as a “huge problem” for Ukraine’s military. The terminals had been disconnected, this person said, due to a lack of funding.   

 

Regarding the second part, I agree. Musk is as full of shit as always. Plenty of others footing the bill and not every terminal in Ukraine needs the $2500/month plan.

Good graphic showing weapons deliveries from various nations both in absolute terms and as a percentage of stocks.  Important to see exactly how little we are giving relative to our stores and how we’re absolutely wrecking Russia doing so. You’ll have to zoom in.

Israelis have 3-4 times the amount of operational stealth fighters than Russia (even Italy has well over twice what Russia has).  

Oh, and Israel could completely wreck Russia’s  efforts in Syria,  Russia won’t do shit.

Speaking of stealthy flying stuff, I hope Aurora exists and is making daily hypersonic flights over Russia only to pop up on radar for a brief second wherever Putin is holed up that day.

Sorry world, the new company I debt loaded is losing money, so I fired half of the staff and required other employees to fill in.

Poland hates itself some Russia.  I knew there was a reason I always liked those guys.

Probably?  I've looked through some incredible NVD's whilst coyote hunting.  Very expensive though.

Replying to the night vision camera question above.

A cafe and the entire area of more than 400 square meters caught fire on Ai-Petri in Crimea. the Katsaps will have cotton everywhere until they leave our land.

this vid is so bizzare.

#1 the guy clearly took an explosive wound to the side already- maybe from the first morter not shown.  his coat and whatever armor hes wearing is blown open/burned and hes bleeding. Thats why hes hiding in the trench. and not moving.

#2 to have not 1 but 2 morter rounds literally land on him but not activate is really bizzare. Those morter triggers are designed to go off with almost any impact resistence.  they werent duds or not armed, because we see the 2nd round goes off. 

#3 dude is in clearly in so much pain that his IDGAF level is off the chart.... especially since he just chucked both morters away without trying to ensure they landed far away and above him.

From that article above

Quote

The international community, said Xi, should “jointly oppose the use of, or threats to use, nuclear weapons,” according to a statement carried by Xinhua, China’s state news agency. The world should also “advocate that nuclear weapons cannot be used, a nuclear war cannot be waged, in order to prevent a nuclear crisis” in Europe or Asia, Xi added. 

I feel confident that Xi has already said this stuff privately, but to say it so publicly….and saying this while Sholz was standing next to him was very interesting timing.

Still don’t think Putin was going to.

That was hard to watch even with him being a Russian. I hope he made it into captivity.

That camera their snipers are using to record their shots/kills, is that something we can buy off-the-shelf?

asking for a friend.

Check out the NVD thread in hobbies.

The self-awareness is stunning.  Admitting you can’t afford to pay widows or kids whose dads are killed, that Russian men over 40 are worthless alcoholics.
 

 

Hard to argue that’s he’s wrong.
