Alex Jones show and Fox News. Not sure which one is which.

Unless you are trying to play games with the "started a war" thing.

Labelling it as "chicken" is a pretty good indication of illegal imports, but in principle, salmon can be found in Belorussian rivers, particularly in the Viliya system.

He's talking about Taurus, because he knows Germany has already decided against delivering that one. Making the threat after the decision is useful propaganda because some people will fall for the idea that his threat was the cause.

I'm always wondering what he is referring to when he says: "even that's got a brighter side to it". In the song, the brighter side never seems to appear.

Cent coins are made of copper, and copper is red. A cent is also the smallest denomination which exists, so he is emphasizing that he didn't even get one of these.

"Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. And a person's enemies will be those of his own household."

They could deny passage to ships without adequate insurance. Should Denmark follow the same approach, then uninsured vessels could be blocked from reaching Russia.

So it seems Kazakhstan has recently increased their production capacity - with lower prices they want to produce more to maintain their income. Which in turn means the other OPEC+ countries want to increase their output too, driving prices even lower. Not a great perspective for RU.

Or maybe it's to move the targets away from Moscow, so that UA will move their attacks, too? Because politically it doesn't look great when they can't protect the capital. It wouldn't solve the core problem of successful UA strikes, but it would reduce the impact, a bit.

Agreed, I meant in a more general sense: like it follows a line and there is a sudden break and then the line continues at an offset - most structures don't have that, so it may decide to smooth it out.

Careful with that one, apparently the picture has been AI-enhanced. That might correct it to look like a less broken ship, because that's more common.

Like every Mafia-boss, Kim is forced to let heads roll. He might not be able to easily replace these people, but he needs to instill fear, otherwise his grip on power weakens.

From what I could find, they are changing the bogies at the border to match standard gauge, so that's quite a painful process even when the train sizes align.

Yeah, that would get us the 100/200 number. And export to China isn't the only concern, I suppose. But why the 142? At least go for 143, then he could export (2x142=284)=(4x57+56), and import (5x57)=(143+142). So he could take whatever China sends, and have only a minor capacity loss the other way.

I get that he wants to be more efficient, but I don't understand the target he is aiming for. Shouldn't he go for either 114 or 171 wagon trains? So that he could split the train when going to China, or join trains when coming from there?

Military parades are a legitimate target.

I wouldn't at all be surprised if China was pulling that (given that they also claim the Manchus), but obviously that's the Mongol Empire, China was just a conquest.

There are only a few countries which produce high-tech components. Of course, they were made in the US and other Western countries. But e.g. computer chips are tiny - a year's supply for building missiles fits into a suitcase, and they are ubiquitous, too. Easiest material in the world to smuggle.

Russia needs money, the Taliban need roads. Both don't have a lot of choice in countries willing to trade with them. Putin doesn't mind redirecting some resources from repairing roads in Russia, if he gets money to fund his war. I suspect they might well make a deal.

Fine, if you have a specific case of fraud, then go for it. But nobody should delude themselves into believing it would make a difference for the outcome of the election.

No, it means US politics is ridiculously partisan. And just like in the last election, the losing party would rather bring ludicrous court cases than deal with the reality of the result.
You'd be better off trying to win the midterms to deny Trump the senate and the house.

That's attributed to Napoleon, but not to Sun Tzu.

In the same vehicle, potentially? But the statement has been retracted now, and apparently the search is ongoing. So I'll just wish them the best, hope they'll still be found alive.

Yeah, great - just we need another tough talker who doesn't get any results. Sure, it might feel satisfying at first, but that sort of thing has to take a backseat when it costs Ukrainian lives.

No, it hasn't - these are standard phishing attacks. There is nothing wrong with the app. There is plenty wrong with using it to skirt regulations.

It still is, though. There is nothing wrong with that app, but a good app alone does not generate good opsec.

Fitting that it doesn't even have "think" in the name.

So they are taking mentally disabled people and sending them into the meat grinder. Bastards.

Signal is a good app. There are no known "vulnerabilities". This is someone using an app without support from government experts, because they wish to skirt the rules.

But that was a happy accident at best - they didn't take care to check where people were. And just the start of the chat is already information a secret service can make use of.

And they desperately needed professional oversight.

Signal is a very good privacy app. By itself, that's a good choice. But they wanted their messages to expire, so they used Signal instead of an approved app without that feature. Then, when you do that, the professionals aren't looking at your installation.
