Wowzers. You should know you done hosed up if you ever start thinking MTG is anything other than a raving, bigoted lunatic. CSPAM is a special kind of special.

I wonder why they keep dragging up WW2 tactics like that. It's like they learned not a loving thing from their conflicts in Afghanistan, Chechnya, Georgia etc. edit: i mean we're not much better, but at least we try to kinda learn from our fuckups

It's an opportunity to thin out the anti government prisoners and clear mines for the other troops at the same time.

I'm sure the "promise of freedom" means, if you live, you have to stay in Ukraine and never come back to Russia. You can be their problem now.

PRISONER: Wow the war is over and I somehow managed to survive all the mines and bullets and starvation. But its all worth it now that I'm going free! COMMISSAR: Prisoner! The paperwork here says you were shot in the head while clearing mines. PRISONER: what are you talking about you must have my file confused with another prisoner as you can see I'm right here! *sound of a pistol being cocked behind the prisoner's head* PRISONER: ... Oh.

I expect that not one thought or bit of planning was given to “promise of freedom” beyond dangling it out there. If the war ends and any of them still live then whoever is responsible for them at that moment will be stuck holding the bag.

To be honest, my initial reaction was for the Russians to pull the dregs of humanity from their prisons. The rapists and murderers etc. I assumed they would be used as fodder but also weaponized against the Ukrainians.. I'm not sure if that says more about me or how I view the Russians at this point and I feel bit creepy for going down that road.

They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems to Ukraine. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists.

Just hit the picture thread and leave the rest alone. I read and post in a few cspam threads but I tend towards the doom threads (housing market, economics, biosphere collapse) with hearty lol. I stay out of almost all the other threads. Doomsday Econ used to be a gbs thread, so did a few other cspam megathreads. There are definitely people there who are breeding mental disorders. Still, practically tame compared to the days of LF. Plenty of gip touches the cspam poop. Plenty in cspam consider gip its own brand of poop to not touch. Maybe before opening a cspam thread, ask yourself what you expect from it. If you expect you'll get angry, maybe go to the dog thread for a while instead. And try to take it with a grain of salt anyhow, lots of people are just there to scream into a void, not everyone is a dyed in the wool tankie or trumper, though those fuckers are annoying.

Looks like Russia's either going to have to find other routes to export all of that stolen grain, or make a national holiday encouraging people to bake churniyy xhleb. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/jul/05/ukraine-russia-turkey-ship-grain-stolen psydude fucked around with this message at 13:53 on Jul 5, 2022 |

Carth Dookie posted:"At current rate of production" is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. You're right. Given how reliant they're on imported components, it's unlikely they'll be able to keep up current production rates once remaining stocks are exhausted. They can probably increase production of regular artillery shells, but that's of questionable utility if they get blown up before they reach the guns.

Longer than that because I doubt there are 1 to 1 swaps for a lot of stuff which means you have to re-engineer it at a system level and then work out all the issues that come from the inevitable compromises. They were using those export restricted devices because they didn’t have better alternatives to begin with.
