They hated Futanari because His posts were shit.

Puccia quadrupled the density of their laid mines in the first line of defense, and quadrupled the size of their minefields, against all likely notions of military practice. That's why it was so difficult and costly to break through them to begin with. But because they were stupid enough to blow most of the mines on line 1, they're currently panicking and desperately trying to hold the line now that there are less mines available for 2 and 3.

Whenever I see Puccia, POCCNR etc. as a stand-in for just saying Russia (and it's happening a lot more frequently) it gives off strong Herr Shicklgruber vibes; the childlike reversion to simple namecalling reveals an inner powerlessness that is as deeply felt as it is poorly articulated.

Real talk, it seems counterproductive to Ukraine's ideological goals as I can't think of a worse way to guarantee the future of anyone's children than to irradiate the landscape with DU. Fallujah was prologue

He was just on a livestream demonstrating something called "Elon mode" for Teslas. It disables a lot of the safety precautions for the self-driving mode. It tried to drive him into traffic on the livestream. He wasn't killed or injured on this livestream but maybe on the next one. Apparently it's possible for consumers to enable "Elon mode" on their teslas as well, regulators are not happy about this.

It's bullshit, Starlink is probably funded by the DOD with the way it's being used in this war.

It's a communication system that is nominally independent from the US government. That can be used to get around any jamming a hostile state could do. And for most states it's impossible to attack.

Musk would want plausible deniability, there's no way that he is monitoring everything Ukraine is doing on the network or policing anything. And it's likely Starlink is being used to hit targets in Russia.

The problem is Russia can attack the network. That what this story is about, it's cover for Musk.

What things are made from recycled war materials other than fetishes for a far right political persuasion?

You can buy knives made from artillery shells fired by America or China. Victorian Cross medal is made from an old hunk of captured cannon, but it's not like I can buy one of those medals online.

edit: lol the Victorian Cross cannon was captured during the Opium Wars

Good news for the UK! Tankies being proved wrong again : the UK has decided to upgrade its awful, government designed and built assault rifle plagued with issues with a state of the art privately designed and built assault rifle of the future! Another win for the free market and another nail in the coffin of planned economy!

ahahah bestie don't look up "M110 wandering zero" nooo you're so sexy

Jokes aside, there's something bleak about the next wave of ukrainian invalid Vilkstirms being issues L85, that's just an awful thing

Yeah, they used to make Geiger counters and similar equipment that can't have any radioactivity out of shipwreck steel. It's not necessary anymore because atmospheric radiation levels are back to normal now that it's been decades since the last above-ground nuclear test.
