Russian FSB says US, UK and Ukraine behind Moscow attack

Jump

  • There has been talk about there being FSB agents all dressed in blue shirts and jeans in the concert crowd and the abysmal security response in the first hours. So it is possible that this is more than a lie.

  • Which means there will a big round of mobilization. Let's hope that the ones that didn't leave the last time around do this time.

    • Russia is preparing 100,000 soldiers for a possible summer offensive, Ukraine says

    Jump

  • 100,000 soldiers for a summer offensive. They lose about 1000 soldiers a day. So it'll be just over three months before they are gone. June, July, August.

    They're going to need another 100,000 after that.

    • Putin dismissed US warnings about a potential terror incident as 'blackmail' just 3 days before concert hall attack

  • Being a sociopath helps being an effective leader. And he has been an effective leader. Just that the outcomes that he wanted were unattainable by the sociopathic means he's been using.

  • Key difference: a major failure at the nuclear reactor is can kill people across a large area.

    That area being large enough to encompass others. Not just the belligerents.

  • It's like they never learn. I remember WAY back when Windows NT was new. The NT in Windows NT stands for New Technology.

    • Trump's plan to end the Ukraine war is to totally cut off funding, says Putin's closest EU ally

    Jump

  • He was found guilty of insurrection in a state court. So that he can't run for president. But then the federal supreme court decided that this particular provision of the constitution is not self executing. And the Congress must pass a law to find Trump ineligible to run. They didn't comment on the insurrection part.

    So Trump has been found guilty of insurrection and he can still run for president.

    • Pope criticised for saying Ukraine should ‘raise white flag’ and end war with Russia

  • There is the historical precedent of the pope supporting the nazis. So this par for course for the Catholic church.

  • If only more people understood this. But alas decades of Israeli propaganda has convinced people otherwise.

  • What's wrong with ansible? I use it day to day. I get the usual gripes about python syntax but all in all its an ok tool.

    • HP wants you to pay up to $36/month to rent a printer that it monitors

  • So if you print your book on this printer. A book that you have written and are about to send to a publisher. HP can take it and sell it. And you are paying them for the privilege.

    That is a HARD NO from me.

    • I find the """man up""" school of thought generally works for me when faced w a tough situation but 97% of the time it's presented as an obnoxious show of bravado. What are better ways to phrase this?

  • When I read stories like this, I think about another story about a bear whose bile was extracted for industrial use. The extraction is extremely painful for the animal. They're kept harnessed to the extraction machinery. This particular bear managed to escape its harness. And the first thing it did was to kill its own cub. So that it wouldn't have to suffer anymore. This happened in China by the way.
