Also, the age of aquarius starts somewhere around 2600. Or if you’re not really into actual astronomy, but instead prefer nonsense, somewhere between 1962 and 2024, depending on how you define the word “in”.

No, I mean those dishwasher drawers you have in there? You should be able to take those and just slide them into a regular cupboard. You out empty ones in the dishwasher, and over time you fill those when you use the dishes.
I wanted to put a rack for those dishwasher trays into a regular cupboard, so that we could have basically a real dishwasher for dirty stuff, and a cupboard for clean stuff so that we never have to empty it.
My husband Veto’d it, because “that’s the epitome of laziness”. Which I think is exactly the point, but whatever. It’s his job to empty the dishwasher now, which solves the problem too.
It’d be a huge coincidence if the wing just happened to fall off just as the rockets were fired. It probably hit the wing or the engine before being armed, so it didn’t go off but still knocked something loose.
On the other hand, like you said, hard turns in a plane that’s 200% over it’s lifetime flight hours may be the problem too.
That’s the same combination I have on my luggage?
This looks a LOT like a 1930s radio, combined with a microfilm viewer, which was very much available at libraries everywhere in the 1930s (and can still be found in archives today).

It’s more than just losing planes.
It’s logistical. There are already video after video of russian trucks being carefully searched by hand to prevent this happening again.
It’s also moral. The russian people have always considered the “inland” areas as perfectly safe. This is a huge blow to that idea.
It’s also more of a strain on the planes. these planes are 50 years old, and have a limited remaining lifespan. Wear and tear can be spread out across the fleet, and if your fleet is reduced in size (and these were all the “good” planes, since they were sitting fueled on the tarmac) you need to put more hours on a smaller number of planes, meaning they’ll wear out faster.
And it might be strategic. Russia was keeping planes fueled and ready, so they could take off any time radar detected incoming missiles or long-range drones (which happened a LOT in the early times of the war). This is showing Russia that that simply leaves your planes more vulnerable to sneak attacks like this.
That’s where blood is supposed to be
The percentage of casualties that go back into active service depends not only on medical skill, support systems and casevac, but also very strongly on how desperate a country is.
I mean, within set boundaries, it can work pretty well. Having it entirely free is demonstrably a bad idea for all but like 17 people.
That would require making and enforcing laws.
You can just let the free market solve this problem for you. It doesn’t happen often, but it’s actually true here.
It’s super fucking easy too: place the burden of delivery on the seller/shipper, and presto, suddenly paying a little more for non-shit delivery becomes worth it. Or they keep trying till they get it right.
How many M113’s were made? It seems like very country has warehouses with mountains of the thing.
2·2 months agoYeah, but that’s mostly because it’s lumpsum. Over time, it’s not much at all.
Russia even did something completely new. They’re letting new recruits write off private debt!
As in, you owe me 76.000 euros for, I dunno, a fancy car. You join the military, and suddenly, you don’t owe me anything anymore. Yay for you (and sucks to be me. Good thing I can always enlist if I get into financial trouble)
Highvelocity scissors sounds like it would score mad karma on NCD.
More realistically, a fuckload of old-fashioned rapid fire lead will work better against them, since the drones can’t really dodge and weave well, and they’re less fast on account of a big spool of fiber.
