What a great way to show the inefficiency of sanctions! /s

Don't forget it's russian people currently fighting in Ukraine. Yes, they are directed by their government, but they seem to have no issues with fighting (and supporting - somebody has to work in all those munitions factories), whether it's some national pride or just money.

For me in this case the preferred approach is the Occam's razor - fsb found a way to take over. But following your credo, telegram is absolutely prohibited in the Ukrainian army - either they know or the risk is too high. Which is kind of the same thing.

It's a top secret Ukrainian battle rainbow.

I believe that the popularity of The Walking Dead is not because of how zombies are fought, but because it's a story of humans being humans, oh and there's a zombie apocalypse.

He's too busy begging these three for help.

Indeed, we must be speaking of different kinds of meditation.

The one I was referring to is mindfulness meditation, by practicing which one gradually develops a habit of noticing thoughts as they happen in one's mind and instead of being immediately carried away by them, have a tiny time buffer that allows to have a chance to decide whether to react or just let it dissipate as all thoughts do.

 

By degrading a near-peer adversary’s military capability, gaining unprecedented battlefield intelligence, and accelerating the testing and development of advanced weapons systems, the U.S. is realizing a Return on Strategic Investment (ROSI) of 321% to 797%

 

2.5 years to halve the reserves, the spend cannot be linear and I also don't think they need to get to zero to have a collapse.

... The economy is being funded by the cash reserves, which increases inflation, which leads to another round of interest rate hikes to combat inflation, which makes it harder to borrow money, which is necessary for economic growth. Eventually, the cash reserves will run out. It took 2.5 years to deplete half the Russian reserves. Russia withdrew $37 billion to cover deficits in December 2022. It withdrew $20 billion to cover deficits in December 2023. It only has $54 billion left.

 

If anything, russia is showing clear signs of sunk-cost fallacy

In today's #vatniksoup I'll talk about Russian Nazis and introduce Russian neo-Nazi movements and paramilitary groups like Rusich and PMC Wagner. They're best-known for being funded by the Kremlin and being responsible for the "denazification" in Ukraine.

 

So basically, we're waiting for a (hopefully very soon) systemic collapse of moscovite army since they bet both their attack and defence on artillery
