Directional fragmentation = shotgun

1993 is 30 years ago tho

I kid you not but only a few days ago someone here on lemmy argued that you can’t take anything he says at face value… Because you know… He lies. Especially if he only said it once.

Yes it was supposed to be a pro-Trump argument because Trump said he’d want for Israel to finish the job (in Gaza) and that guy argued, he’ll vote for Trump because Biden is complicit in genocide.

I’ve red patriot is a “billion dollar system”. Losing these hurts a lot. I don’t know if Germany has a lot of these launchers. The mobile launchers are from Germany I believe.

Without looking at a map my memory is kinda fuzzy but I believe Russian troops would have trouble getting there. I hope they try the Black Sea route

People have been throwing around the “the French support is covert” thingy around since the start of this war. I don’t see it. Those Caesars weren’t delivered silently at all.

Even covert support costs money. French is broke af and may not even fulfill their publicized commitments. For a country seeing itself as one of the major military players in Europe, they’re slacking a lot on this one.

It’s a smokescreen to divert from his lacking support so far. Remember when someone posted the top 10 supporters of military and non-military aid in Europe recently? France didn’t even make it on that list.

And it’s bullshit because to Putin the occupied territories are russian territory. Didn’t they annex these regions already? At least Crimea is Russia to them. Yet we still are fine with attacking Russian troops in these regions with western weapons. To Putin it shouldn’t make any difference, if UA strikes there or other parts of Russia. But somehow it does.

So Crimea isn’t russian territory after all or is that red line actually nothing more than another smoke screen?

Russia keeps drawing lines everywhere and the west is overstepping them all the time. Nothing ever happens. It’s Putins version of https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/China’s_final_warning

But why would the Russians continue to operate in that sector? Is this the same region the last ones went down? They probably can’t afford to keep losing their equipment and pilots like that.

“I’ve had no issues therefore the issue doesn’t exist.”

So trash UI scaling is a feature? Try changing your display to a non-HiDPI one. Does this look good to you?

Which is funny considering the main figure of the Reign of Terror himself ended up losing his head in 1794.

Lack of education. I am not French but learned about this in school. History is important so we don’t repeat mistakes from the past.

Some may think whatever happened some 250 years ago in France is irrelevant. I’ll use this quote from the Wikipedia article to illustrate (keep in mind the estimated number of victims is even higher) :

“During the Reign of Terror, at least 300,000 suspects were arrested; 17,000 were officially executed, and perhaps 10,000 died in prison or without trial.”

That’s a little over 1% of the population (about 28 million) arrested and 0,06% executed. In the US today this would equal to 3.320.000 arrested and 199.200 executed.

And what worries me even more is there are people who look at this and think it’s fine.

The most popular show is also the one most pirated…

Amazing stuff

In Germany “Mein Kampf” in its unedited, uncommented form is banned and maybe that’s not a bad idea. Prevents dimwits from reading it unfiltered and … become president with a twisted world view heavily influenced and inspired by one of the worst dictators and murderers in humans history.

Sorry I deleted my comment because often I receive negative criticism for something like this. We’re often too eager to jump on the “Russians stupid” Band waagon but those stupid cunts are still killing Ukrainians daily and don’t seem to be breaking anytime soon.

Seems to me we’re still underestimating them. There are some in the west getting tired of the war but when we’ve been told for months and months the Russians are on the brink of breaking and mindless untrained mobiks barely presenting a challenge, the disappointment over the lack of meaningful success on the battlefield becomes even greater.
