In Kharkiv, a rocket hit a TV tower, the broadcast was interrupted.

It's a Thinkpad. That thing and cockroaches will survive the nuclear holocaust.

For Gen Xers it's the 3210 of PCs.

We had Panasonic Toughbooks. I built my own from scrapped ones at the can point, off the books. And I still have the thing, runs Windows 98 Millennium. I kept it around because it still has Fallout 1 & 2 lol.

Keep the threads the same, warn/ban people who get legitimately angry at other members . It's fine to disagree and discuss, but people rage posting back at forth at each other is useless.

I have no problems with "Ukraine is actually causing heavy losses to the Russians, and here's the videos". But "You PUTIN COCKSUCKERS don't EVEN SEE WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON BECAUSE YOU HAVE A HATEBONER FOR GLOBOHOMO" gets tiresome pretty quick.

Don't police the opinions, police the spergs who can't even just chill with each other when they disagree.

Totally agree! It's called the autistic thunderdome not because it's full of funny slapfights, but because it's a place for polite yet serious political discussion!

Get the fuck outta here with that nonsense.

Maybe rereading On The Beach wasn't a good idea.

Is it really a global famine if the Americas can self-sustain themselves? You decide.

Why do you think Bill Gates is buying up all our farmland?

The NATO head is a walking meme. The US decides everything and it's given the green light for the vassals to begin sending the eternal Hohol their own crappy planes.

I've been following this thread from the start and have seen more bitching about the shit-flinging than actual shit-flinging

LMAO one of the other guests says this in response to her:

It's true that the current government isn't perfect. Maybe some journalists were indeed assassinated, but journalists are assassinated in other countries too, like in Bulgaria, but you can't say that because of this they aren't democratic. Maybe the country's judicial system is flawed, but you can't...

I give the host credit for not instantly shutting her down or "losing the signal" like CNN would.

I really, really hope they just mean sending planes for them to use, not actual NATO forces.

The only thing I find irritating in this section of the site are when users who aren't regulars come in, and start acting like mods because they don't understand what the fuck "autistic thunderdome" means. It's annoying as fuck.

...mere hours after Russia claims it's found bio-weapons. HRMMMMMM! /conspiracy hat

lol. can these spastics in 'world-leader governments' just calm shit down already? russia is looking like it's choking on ukraine p hard, the last thing you want to do is send planes with pilots over and risk tactical nukes getting deployed in desperation counter to that, when you can just lend-lease all the arms ukies need to keep being a PITA of russians.

The "Green light" thing isn't about sending active fighters to Ukraine, it's about offloading Poland's old soviet era planes to Ukraine.

So how exactly is this going to work? Are these jets going to be flown into Ukraine through contested airspace? Who is going to pilot them? Also, what airfields will they be arming at, taking off, and landing from (and with what weapons)? If the news is to be believed, Russian forces are all over the place over there and I would think they would at the very least be able to bombard airbases to nonfunctionality. This just seems strange given the present state of the conflict.

It seems VISA/Mastercard may have just played them selves a 'lil bit.

View attachment 3048150

told y'all niggas to watch yo backs

This got me to briefly think about India. You know how the U.S. threatened to sanction India for not supporting Ukraine hard enough?

In 2017, a native Indian card company named RuPay had roughly 15% of the Indian market under its belt. The Indian government started shilling the fuck out of RuPay telling all the Indians to replace their Visa/Mastercard cards with RuPay cards because they realized letting American companies control your money is a bad idea.

By 2020, their market share was at 60%. RuPay grew so quickly that Visa filed an official complaint to the U.S. government whining that the Indian government was hurting Visa's business. Mastercard in 2018 told the Office of the United States Trade Representative that the Indian government was equating having a RuPay card to being patriotic.

So now we have 1 billion Chinese off the U.S. financial system's teat because Xi realizes that shit is fucked, 1 billion Indians moving away out of the U.S. financial system and onto their own system, and roughly 150 million Russians being given no choice but to hop onto the Chinese system. Seems like the ship is sinking fast, isn't it?
