I think that MTG, and a lot of commenters on here, need to realise that Ukraine will not stop this war until Russia are out, regardless of the international support or otherwise. Even if Ukraine is overrun completely the war would not stop, but would go on until Russia leave.

That's very disappointing. So at least 90% of people are still on there, if not 95% or even 98% still there. That's barely more than a rounding error. Fuck, that is disappointing.

Yeah, jury already found him guilty and the judge twice said we're allowed to call the rapist Trump a rapist. In his business fraud case, he is also already found guilty. So he is already a rapist fraudster. I think the meme stands as it is.

All perfectly correct. However, it is a war that Russia will never win, like Afghanistan.

The State will take the baby. I guess there are no good outcomes here. I expect both children are currently in care.

Whatever you do, don't go back, as it's only the dregs of society left there. Honestly, it's horrible on there now. I permanently left it yesterday.

This is an incredibly long article, mostly rehashing old information. Tl:dr is this. The war will take 4 to 6 years. It is irrelevant that Russia has more people as they don't have the kit or tatics. The battle has become one of artillery attrition. Ukraine is getting stronger and Russia weaker. There will be a sudden breakthrough when the Russian army is exhausted, but don't know when.

The last 4 or 5 paragraphs are worth a read from, "UKRAINE IS GROWING STRONGER, AND RUSSIA WEAKER" onwards.

Yeah, this is not definitely attributed to Keynes, and earlier verions of it by other people paint this in a slightly different way as a positive point, that even nasty people work for the benefit of all. Many versions have been attributed to Keynes, both as a positive and a negative for capitalism.

Copyright is fucking wierd and an anomaly. It has only existed very recently in all history. Part of the reason we have the works of Shakespeare is due to the fact that there was no copyright then, so taking a part of someone else's work and rehashing into something new was common and innovative. Disney do this with old folk stories, but then they get to "copyright" it? It's abhorrent. It stifles further creativity. Take that horrible weirdo TERF who wrote some wizarding shit. She would have done very nicely without copyright protection. It's not needed. So-called "piracy" is just normal behaviour. Nothing wrong with it.

I'm always pretty happy if I have a bug last thing on a Friday. Gets me right back into it first thing on Monday. It's kinda weird, but works for me.

Look for those artillery numbers every day. Great to see.

He was, but once he'd finished getting sued for sacking contractors, randomly turning off critical servers and reopening the accounts of some of the world most despicable people, he hand over yo Linda, who he had personally selected.

I stated programming games on a school computer in the early to mid 80's. When the tape drive broke, I still used to have the code in my head, just type it all in for others to play. Now I find code I wrote last month and can't remember doing it. At least it tends to be, "which genius wrote this" these day. Tend to leave comments everywhere for myself now, including my own name and other messages to myself like,"don't touch this it works, your bug will be in..."

That's why the game was created, to show how the system is rigged and all the money finishes up at the banks.

In true British style, trying not to be outdone by the French, we built our own on the other side of the English Channel, and no one got a hole burnt in their heads nor nuffin else like that. I give you, Staint Michael's Mount. https://www.bing.com/...

The artillery destruction is a major factual in winning this war.

YTA. The phrase, "reduce, reuse, recycle" is written in that order precisely because it is most important to save the environment by reducing our consumption (not buying raisins we don't need). It is a magnitude worse to move to the second one, reuse (reuse pots instead of buying new jars). It is a magnitude worse to move to the last one, recycle, almost pointless in fact to do this (recycling good pots into something else). You might as well set fire to a pile of coal. Your wife is golddust, she's a very special person with a deep understanding of the real world.

I doubt many people bothered to read past "Wager Group isn't 'the Russian Miltary' " and immediately downvoted. Tbf I did read the rest of your comment and, having done so, I wish I could downvote you 3 times. Precisely 3, no more, no less. Out of interest, are you a Russian troll?

The way things are going, may he's talking about trying to take Belorod back after it falls to the Freedom of Russia troops. Joking aside, there is increasing talk from Ukraine about buffer zones. I can see them needing a bargaining chip ofbthis sort of order.
