Its never ceasing to amaze me that Ukraine, with essentially leftover western equipment, is handling a full blown invasion by Russia. Its pretty incredible to think what would happen to Russia if the west actually went all in and took down Russia with its full might.

I know they aren’t as dependent as they’ve been in the past on Soviet/Russian armor but it does provide some hints to China’s position as well. A western army at full strength with the full support of the western nations is, and will continue to be for a long time, an unmatched military force on the planet.

Really interesting article providing context to what is happening from someone with experience at commanding major military operations. Definitely gives new perspective to why Ukraine has struggled lately to make significant progress.

Like it or not, Republicans push for less business regulations, they’ve neutered the EPA at least some(as a moderate conservative I’m not necessarily in favor of that one but it’s reality) when given the chance,

About the only things that democrats can pin this idea on the Republicans about is abortion and immigration.

The Democrats forced the ACA, which is more regulation and bigger government. Republicans were the ones pushing back on vaccine mandates while Democrats pushed for them.

So ya, I stand by my statement that the op statement is not some unique thing to the Republicans and I think stating that as if it is and then agreeing with it is an example of basing your opinions on feelings and propaganda, not facts and reality.

Are you suggesting the Democrats haven’t been about bigger government? Are you suggesting that bigger government means more freedom and less regulations? Like, this isn’t even all that debatable. I truly don’t think you understand the reality of, well, reality if you think this isn’t the case.

Course, the far left is all about whats not reality and I bet that’s exactly the space you think in. Makes it easy to just spout off whatever nonsense sounds like fits your narrative about the other side and call it intelligent.

Ever heard the idea that when you point at someone you’re pointing 3 fingers back at yourself?

For the record, I’d level similar criticisms at the far right and it’s narratives as well.

I guess the reality of what the Democratic party has been for the last, oh, 70-80 years at least is irrelevant if we’re trying to disparage the Republicans? Way to hive mind yourselves Lemmy…

As if that description doesn’t apply to democrats…

I was using Digg and Reddit both at the height of Digg. I had already mostly moved over to Reddit at the time of the migration but still was on Digg some. But I was among those that abandoned Digg then.

There’s a new docsis version right around the corner that will provide symmetric speeds. Comcast is starting to roll it out this year. Cable will be a lot faster in a couple years.

Almost perfect “simple” rts. Nothing terribly complicated about how it works. Really the only thing that keeps me from saying it is perfect is the lack of ability to set rally points for units or select multiple planets to move all the seedlings(units) all at once.
