If by “milking” you mean “releasing major content additions semi regularly”, then yes.

Maybe don’t mindlessly rattle off the same Whataboutism every time the current Russian war against Ukraine is being discussed.

There has never been a shortage of quality equipment for elite units but in the early stages of the conscription people where issued everything stored in bunkers and depots at hand including personal weapons from late WWII/early Cold War.

And if you look at confirmed vehicle losses there is a clear trend towards older and older albeit to various degrees modernized platforms. So yeah, Russia IS running out of modern weapons for the average unit in the field.

The issue at hand though is the longer the conflict draggs on the more Russia is able to adapt. Evading sanctions by laundering oil in India. Importing vital electronic components through China. And now securing more ammo in North Korea. Which btw the west is doing in South Korea and other places around the world as well.

The amount of artillery shells being used is astronomical. Paired with a low production capacity in the west as a baseline, it is not unimaginable that the ongoing demand outweighs production.

Sure do. Waiting for the next ban now, since I just notice that I again found my way on to the official tankie instance.

Yes, comrad! Freedom is slavery and war is peace!

Could as well be Orban trying to look cool to younger folks.

Who was the US Republican die-hard neo-lib Senator again, who claimed to love Rage Against The Machine?

Isn’t it a long-standing theory that at some point the whole magnetic field of earth might flip polarity, just like the sun’s does?

Except these bacteria are nothing new.

It’s complicated

2.5 km. That’s like poking someone with your fingertips and run away giggling like a mad scientists.

In a voting system such as the US its the natural outcome that you vote against the guy you don’t want but not for the person you want.

CGP Grey did a fantastic video series on YouTube about different systems for voting.

I hope there are no Japanese torpedo boats in the way.

It indeed is.

Well, I DO know how the French count and compared to English it IS highly confusing. You can hardly convince me that saying “Four times twenty and ten” is as straight forward as saying “Nine tens”.

And just to be clear: I’m not some Yankee or Brit with a superiority complex, no, I am German, and we have our own shitty version of this: Instead of moving along the digits from highest to lowest, as in “Four hundreds and two tens and nine”, we do “Four hundred and nine and two tens”.

I guess we can blame the French’s confusing number system for that.

Do you see any torpedo boats?

Fahrenheit 451 is somewhat missunderstood as the author main intend was to warn of the then up and coming television tech.
