Yeah, I get that. 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.

When Russia sends its people, they're not sending their best. 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.

Grip it and rip it posted:

If there are mass executions to go along with the concentration camps then there will likely be repercussions for the international order, in particular the UN and other instruments of US hegemony.

The camps in question are run by Russia (or their instruments of hegemony) so how will the US (or their instruments of hegemony) experience these "repercussions" precisely if the Russians are killing Ukrainian POWs?

He's not opening cans of sunshine.

Fallout hitting any NATO country could be a treaty invocation, Putin cannot risk that.

The US would almost inevitably respond with steps targeting military targets - someone pointed out sinking the entire Black Sea fleet, taking out the Kerch Bridge, and doing SEAD missions until the only radars left are parking assist devices on cars.

Putin thinks it's bad now? Biden is the last Cold Warrior and he's actually got a loving spine. The GOP is even onside to gently caress Russia over. Turkey might even open the Bosphorus to NATO ships.

Though I should say that as a Canadian my knowledge of what exactly US presidents did in their military careers is very unknown to me. In Canada I think the closest any of our PMs got to that kind of violence had more to do with subjugating and genociding indigenous nations.

St. Laurent was too old to serve in WWII, Diefenbaker was in the army until 1917. Lester Pearson was a medic and RAF pilot in WWI. Trudeau was born in 1919 but didn't serve in WWII. Clark (1939), Turner (1929) Mulroney (born 1939) and others too young for WW II. Apart from Trudeau, our PMs were all the wrong ages; almost nobody went to Korea.

The pipeline was pressurized to 105 bar with methane.

quote:

Nord Stream 2's operator said pressure in the pipeline, which had contained some gas sealed inside despite never becoming operational, dropped from 105 to 7 bars overnight.

That's over 100 atmospheres pressure. There's lots of methane to come out. The remaining 7 bar is just water pressure from being 50m underwater.

Ed: google says 300 million m³ capacity in the pipeline. There *have* to be valves somewhere but if not, at 100 atmospheres, 30 billion cubic metres of methane in there at STP.

gently caress.

Ed2: at 105 bar, it's supercritical fluid to boot.

The 75mm Skysweeper in the 1950s was several tons as a static emplacement - you don't need to hit something at 30,000 feet anyhow.

As said, flying NOE up to a couple thousand feet means your max direct fire range is how many klicks?
What you need is a gun with adequate range and the ability to rapidly engage targets. 40mm should be fine?

Chomsky was great at pointing out how poo poo US foreign policy has been, from Vietnam on, but starting with Cambodia he started excusing/handwaving/whatever bad things done by people opposing the US. A lot of us who were fans* in the 1980s and 90s (me for example) would sort of excuse his and Herman's Cambodia genocide on the basis of "well other than that *one* thing he's great" but his continued descent into "only America bad" finally pushed me into "please stop". It's like when my life-long leftist labor-organizer uncle started getting bad Alzheimer's and once matter-of-fact busted out how the Jews ran the banks to me, in spite of having close Jewish friends his whole adult life. Just sad.

* I read almost everything he wrote, I exchanged emails, met him a couple times after talks.

In my view it's easier to teach an InfoSec person about OT systems than teaching a OT person about InfoSec. Some of the stuff you see is, as commented on, old as poo poo.

The challenge of securing networks and devices that assume everything on the network is secure, do no authentication, no encryption, frequently aren't using TCP/IP, run unpatchable firmware or unsupported OS versions... Well it's not boring.
