Yep. If you take a look at some of the closer full body shots you can see he wears insanely big, baggy suits tailored to hide the fact he's fat as hell. The photos are also usually set up to hide that. Kinda like Trump.

The only plus side put of this would be if the DPRK gets some food aid out of Russia. poo poo got really bad for normal people after the border with China got shut down over COVID and the black markets providing food and medicine to the proles got cut off.

Have they gone mad? They already lost a huge amount of men, equipment, and vehicles, even aircraft, trying to capture Avdiivka, and now they're making another moronic offensive towards Kupyansk.

Thanks for sharing this one! For a moment I thought they were going to just end up back where they started but they pulled it out. Also I evidently watched Patton too much back in the day, because I was not expecting that turbine engine noise.

:haibrow: IIRC Kim Jong-Un has been reported to have the 'betus as well.

it would be cool and good for DPRK people to get food, but whats more likely is that Kim will get a literal mountain of rubles, which he will turn right back around and use to buy more modern Chinese weapons for the army :ssh: or restart their nuke program :ssh:

Russia decided "gently caress it, lets build our own lithography machines production". What's funny about it is that funds allocated to this program is about 1/10 of what ASML spends on their own research yearly. For reference the Dutch ASML owns about 80% of world market, the rest being divided between Japanese Nikon and Canon. Both of these countries sanction Russia. So, yeah. Important to note that at least half of that budget has to be stolen, otherwise what's the point? Russian news agency Kommersant also reported that the program requires very specific expertise in applied physics and there are literally 5 people with this knowledge still remaining in Russia and they are all either pushing 80 or over 80 years old :D

I dunno what blew up but apparently there is a ton of military related industry in the area.

From the pics I'd guess it was a titanic ammo dump or some sort've similarly titanic propellant factory exploding.

Pretty sure minorities are literally spent at this point. I never hear about Buryat doing this or Chechen doing that anymore.
What I find interesting is Bashkir situation. Out of all Russia's people (which are like 50 or so) everyone seemingly accepted their yoke, slowly diying, language and culture dissapear except Bashkir nationality who actually try to preserve themselves. And yet I never heard of Bashkir atrocities in Ukraine. Do they not draft them in order not to stir poo poo?

Another weird one is the A1 variant of the M4 Sherman. It's powered by a radial aircraft engine and sounds like an old airplane when it drives by.

I am also curious how an Abrams handles mud because, on the one hand it’s a heavy bastard, but on the other it was designed for a WW3 European land war, so they had to consider this kind of terrain.
ehhhh, it was designed for a Fulda Gap scenario, which wouldn't have the same mud issue. No tank likes mud. No heavy vehicle likes mud.

IIRC Buryat was one of the only places where they had real demonstrations and beat up officials showing up with draft papers. Maybe they are considered more troublesome than what it is worth to draft them, for now?

Europeans spend massive resources to manufacture plastic brushes that they keep by their toilet in a poo poo-caked state to scrape out the leftover poo poo out of the bowl after they are done making GBS threads

Americans just made the water level in the bowl a couple cms higher. Work smarter, not harder
