About Western arms supplies to Ukraine:

Ukraine uses up to 5 thousand shells per day, while the United States produces only 14-15 thousand per month.

The Russian military industry will produce three times more ammunition than the West can supply to Ukraine.

The West plans to send about 400 tanks to Ukraine, but during this time more than 1600 will be produced in Russia.

The Russian side has something to respond to the transfer of shells with depleted uranium - hundreds of thousands of them are at the disposal of the RF Armed Forces.

There is very little consensus in science on what exactly "kebab meat" is. Yes, it very likely contains some animal products, but narrowing it down to a specific part of the animal kingdom or part of an animal is very hard. The truth is that we just don't know and probably never will.

Tuna-Fish posted:

Most of Finnish geology consists of extremely old (1.5By+) exposed extremely hard and tough basement rock. If I go outside and kick a few cm of soil off, the rock below is solid, hard granite that goes straight down unbroken for kilometers.

This extremely hard rock is, kind of paradoxically, typically very cheap to quarry. Because it needs no reinforcement, it is easy to mine through blasting, and the rock you extract is actually valuable enough to sell at prices high enough to cover a significant part of your expenses. Because of this, we have tunneled a lot. Like a lot lot.(pdf) Some of this underground stuff is public, like all that infrastructure in Helsinki. But there's quite a bit of fairly obvious additional stuff. Like, when there are three small restricted military zones on different sides of the same hill, each housing only a few small buildings but large parking lots that are often full, it doesn't exactly take a genius to put two and two together.

So when you start with "there's a lot of stuff underground", add "some of it is secret and not publicly talked about", you can bet crazy conspiracy guys are getting their money's worth. When I was in the military, there were all these rumors about tunnels much longer than the officially acknowledged ones. Those rumors were probably bullshit, but less incredible than you'd think -- when the capital started exhausting local freshwater supplies, they just casually dug a 120km tunnel to act as an aqueduct.

Looking at these guys, apparently the tunnel rumors have expanded greatly, and instead of connecting different Finnish towns, they are now crossing continents.

Well, tunnels do seem to be effective protection from artillery fire.

I like where they're going with this, but I think the concept can go further. The kamikaze drones can be loaded with smaller kamikaze drones, which are also carrying drones. Basically drones all the way down. We'd only need to supply Ukraine with one of those, and they'd be set for the rest of the war.

Just food for thought: a chopper upgrade package for Gerald R. Ford. Dronefication of aircraft carriers.
