It will be fun to see how they explain the absolute destruction of both the US economy and its standing in the World when they eventually "win" their long game. ...or actually I know: "It was all Obama's fault"

It's just keeping up the illusion for the true believers. Everyone has to conform. Whatever they actually experience in real life. A form of "Emperor's new clothes".

It's nice you guys find the funny side of this, but really, at this day and age, everyone should be aghast that a politician in a deciding role utters anything as stupid as this. So the GOP way of "winning" is sitting quiet, eyes closed, hands crossed, mumbling something. Apparently for money, too?

Since when South Korea and Japan have been "The West"? The whole world, sans a dictator or two, has united against Russia. Tough love.

"Vlad said no. And Donald obeys him"

This will correct itself. The ever-cheapening "balcony solar" will explode first, and the bean counters ensure that the cheapest mass-production will be chosen. It is game over for LNG and even nuclear, whatever these right-wingers try to push.

It's nice to blame others, but you saw him on his first term, and yet voted him back. YOU (=Americans) made it happen. Even if there was some social network and media coercion from abroad, YOU were gullible enough to fall for it. Russia and Israel are merely taking advantage of the situation now.

Hell, if he is about to die, 70% of the population is rooting for it. Do not disturb.

The amount of replies without a single reality check is rather sad indication of the state of the Internet today... This is actually Peña del Culo in Barruecos National Park, Spain. Why it has to be linked with Cotswolds, no idea. It would be just as funny with the right coordinates.

Just watched the TVP episode on this subject. The category "Special Military Operation" is gone, but the gear is still there. For example, drones are now in "TV and audio" and kevlar helmets are in "Sports equipment". I bet the daily warehouse bonfires will continue.

You have to ask those who keep track. You know, the persons who do this for a living. 2015 is no 2025. Except in Russia... Actually worse, if you look at the rankings.

Sure, I was exaggerating a bit. But I had exactly that kind of issue recently. Had a charging anomaly on an EV, the guy connected the probe, said "we have to order a new X", told me that it is still under warranty and hence free, and asked me to return in three days...

Also shows that it's open season for military uniforms in the Russian army...

I agree. The latest remotely recorded videos of orc-vs. drone interactions show that the explosions have become much more powerful since, say just 12 months ago. The kill zone must have a radius of at least five meters or so.

It's funny how now it is totally OK to officially talk about "war" and "crisis". A desperate attempt to normalize the ensuing chaos.

Gas hitting 23-year low when the Hormuz Strait remains closed is pretty impressive proof of the expansion of renewables.

Today you plug the car data bus into a proprietary reader, and the manufacturer's software tells what parts to order for changing and how much to charge. The "mechanical" part is being able to undo and reconnect screws and wires as instructed. Cars are now just computers on wheels, in good and bad.

You are saying that attacking a boatload of weapons coming in from Iran is not a military option? The ease of which the Ukrainian hackers penetrate the Russian info space kind of makes you assume that they knew pretty well what was the cargo on this ship. Only Russia blows up random civilian targets

Ahh, this is why they had to cancel the summer camps for kids in Crimea: The grown-ups wanted their own camps instead.

Desperate in what ways? Somehow they knew that this was a valuable target, got a drone to the correct location of a moving ship and hit it. Being a sailor doing job for Russia these days is pretty desperate...
