Icon Of Sin posted:What’s the box-thing at the end of the barrel? I googled pics and didn’t see that come up. Compensator. It redirects some of the gases backwards to reduce recoil. e: or actually a muzzle brake. Brakes are for horizontal movement (recoil) and compensators for vertical (muzzle flip)

The thing that bugs me the most about the pro-russia crowd is denying Ukrainians and Russian opposition any agency at all. Things happening inside Russia? Surely must be CIA, no way the meek Russians could come up with anything like that themselves!

It would be more surprising if they had. 5.45 would make more sense too over 7.62 because the cartridge dimensions are closer to 5.56 but then still there's really not that many of those guns around. e:f;b

I personally don't mind a small derail now and again so much if it's interesting but I never played so when y'all start talking about DD, ROL, RMT or PLEX please know that we have no loving clue what you're talking about and it makes for a very boring read. Please note that I'm by no means asking to explain all these terms because I don't really care, I'm asking that if you have some funny drama and meltdowns to post, please consider us plebeians who don't know the lingo.

And even if they have modern weapons, they are used sparingly. If you remember the trench warfare footage from a month or two ago with the guy fighting off a BMP-load of Russians with his helper handing him weapons and ammo, in that video he shoots off a bunch of RPG rounds but when he wants to use a Matador ATGM, he radios his commander for permission. He ends up not using it, but I found that interesting that they're rationing the better western kit that way.

As you know straight up brute-forcing a 256 bit key is impossible. So there has to be a flaw in the system or the Russians got their hands on some key material

Key management is hard to do well. If the Russians managed to access the place where the radios are provisioned (either though hacking or HUMIT) then all bets are off.

It's often way simpler than that though. They might have captured a few radios and extract the keys off of it, and the Ukrainians haven't rotated their keys yet. I have no idea how easy or hard it is to change the keys but it'd probably be a nightmare to coordinate a key rollover between all the users. Then again, surely the compromise of a radio is something that has been taken into consideration when designing such a radio for military use? Some more info on the key schedule would be nice to have.

M_Gargantua posted:That's unfortunate because almost every large progressive or socialist victory has been via strength of arms Seems like you preemptively put the goal posts on wheels so you can move them around when someone comes up with an example where no armed conflict took place. Are you intending to argue that the various worker strikes of the past couple centuries were not progressive, socialist, or "large"? Sure some of them involved "strength of arms" (whatever that even means), but many didn't. What about the civil rights movement, or women's suffrage?
