ruzzia is a scourge unfit to exist in the world

As I said https://slashdot.org/comments....
AFAIC ruzzia can and needs to go to hell. I hire people, I won't hire a ruzzian, the world needs to get its act together and start using space without them.

They are a scourge, always were, always will be. The American scientists, that passed information to the USSR about nuclear weapon design and manufacturing were not just traitors, they made a gigantic mistake, they truly made the world a much worse place to live. Preferably the soviets and by extension the Chinese and then the Iraqies, Iranians, North Koreans and who knows who else should not have nukes, at least not immediately after the Americans designed and built them.

Americans are exceptionally good at delivering innovation, but they are also exceptionally naive about the rest of the world. All Americans, their scientists incorrectly believe in basic good human nature, their politicians incorrectly believe that others are just like them and want to do business. Ha! Business is the last thing on the minds of foreign despots. The first thing is to make sure their population are controllable so that nothing can dethrone them, this means the status quo must be maintained, business does not help to maintain status quo, on the contrary, it may provide extra resources to the population. Once the population has more resources than the absolute minimum and once the population does not depend on the State to provide this bare minimum, once the population can provide for itself it starts demanding change and this is unaaceptable. The change is a political demand, population must be dependent and ready to die for a few scraps off the table of the rulers, business interferes with this. Americans think putin or whatever other dictator wants to do business, what a stupid notion.

American people believe they can just keep to themselves, nothing concerns them about the rest of the world, they do not need to try and control the outcomes. They are the naive wealthy mark, walking carelessly through a foreign open market, there are enough eyes on their pockets and there is a guy with a knife in a dark alley waiting for them specifically. This is a metaphore. Americans need to build alliances with the Europeans, not break them, they need to understand that ruzzians are not friends or business partners. They also need to understand that global caliphate is a real thing, it is the goal and if Americans care about their way of life even a little, Israel and Ukraine are their lines of defence right now and must be supported as if the war was already in the USA, bevause it is.

Datamining, Microsoft is going to milk their customers for as much money as they possibly can, I would dump Microsoft and switch to Linux

Americans are quite a bunch, land of the free, ha? Jay walking was invented and popularized in the States, in most other countries there are no such laws safe for a few. Germany, Singapore are very strict too but they are the exception, not the rule.

they only care about one kind of reputation - fear. This is what keeps them warm at night, the thought that the West is afraid of them, because it is definitely not gas that keeps them warm.

I know, it is true, the front lines have 50+ year olds, no doubt. Ukraine hasn't dipped into the pool yonger than 25 yet, this is the conscription age while orcs have sent 18 year olds to die for their tsar already. Ukraine also allowed 18 to 22 year old males to exit the country, over 45 thousand left to Poland. None of this changes what I said.

Read through the comments in that telegram post, the amount of denial is staggering, the amount of cheerful propaganda is even greater, but there were some worried notes gleaming through all that cheerleading, where someone hoped they would still have a job later on. Someone thinks that the things may not turn out so well, they think that out of all of the options they may end up with the option I listed as number one here https://slashdot.org/comments....

what I can tell you from the very tone of this cheerful post, they do not have all of the necessary components and it will not be simple at all. Obviously they will try to launch Proton in December as scheduled by trying to do it without the service cabin, there is maybe a way, a bunch of wooden planks and ropes, who knows. The number of ways this may end up disasterous for the launch are too many to be listed here.

competing with spaceX is tough indeed, how exactly would you propose the Chinese bill uncle Sam for billions, consistently launching empty oversized buckets that burn up while delivering a banana to the Indian ocean?

you understand that the war that was supposed to last for maybe a week or two is now closing on 4 years, right? That all of the western powers were absolutely certain that prior to 2022 ruzzia was a world level super power with the military that was somewhere in the top 2 or 3 maybe, right? That this supposed super power was stopped by a country with 1/3 to 1/4 of the population, with 1/28 of size, with no oil or gas mining to speak of. Today ruzzia is occupying significantly less territory than at the end of 2022 as well because Ukraine got some of the territory back, for example the city of Kherson and most of Kharkhiv region.

More than that, Ukraine was able to enter ruzzian territory for whatever purpose and was able to hold some of it for about 6 months.

Currently ruzzia is actually a much more dangerous enemy than it was in 2022 to the rest of Europe, it gained enough knowledge, learned new tactics and is capable of taking out any European army in a conventional fight, I am certain of it. Should Ukraine fail and fall, putin will attack Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and then will go further and nobody will stop him without nuclear weapons if the USA decides to retreat, the Europeans are not in a fighting mood and will not be dying for their homes, they will be enslaved by putin if nuclear weapons are not used, this is certain. Europe's best chance at preventing this is seriously helping Ukraine, at this point with some man power as well.

As to the story we are talking about, ruzzia does not have factory capacity to build a new 8U216 service cabin and this has nothing to do with 'brilliance of people they are attacking', you are not reading me correctly. I am saying they do not have the capacity, they do not have the resources to manufacture this cabin unless they actually stop the war, retreat and restart normal manufacturing. It is also unclear that this type of a cabin can be built at any of their plants, maybe at the Cherepovets metallurgical plant. There is a reason why the USSR was manufacturing this thing in Kramatorsk and it wasn't about brilliance, it was about capacity, ability to handle a task of this magnitude. What, do you think you can just turn any factory into something that can manufacture a structure of this size and complexity? You are the one living in a fantasy world.

I am typing this on my phone, while on a train from Kyiv to Lviv, laying down in the dark, I have all of the autocorrect functions disabled on the phone, one thing is hitting the wrong keys and still have a more or less recognizable word come out than having the word changed completely by the stupid autocomplete feature (dumb ass grandfather of whatever we call AI today). That is why the words are often scrambled.
